A Christian gentleman is a fighting man. If you don't fight, then you are greatly failing in the Christian life. Jesus was a fighter. What makes someone gentle is not that they don t fight, but that they fight for the right reasons, in the right ways. And the right way still includes a fight.

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request.
00:00:03.320 If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show,
00:00:06.420 would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review?
00:00:09.680 This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do
00:00:12.860 to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible.
00:00:17.500 Thanks.
00:00:19.700 Jesus said,
00:00:20.800 Man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:25.460 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:30.000 A Christian gentleman is a fighting man.
00:00:35.360 If you don't fight, then you are greatly failing, 0.81
00:00:44.680 greatly failing in the Christian life
00:00:49.060 and what the Bible clearly defines as true gentleness.
00:00:55.140 Jesus was a fighter.
00:00:56.140 See, you don't crucify nice guys. You don't even crucify gentle men in the way that the church in
00:01:06.600 America has defined gentleness today. If Jesus was gentle, by American evangelicals definition
00:01:15.460 of gentleness, he would have never been nailed to a cross. You don't crucify nice guys. You crucify
00:01:24.280 threats. Jesus was bold. At times, Jesus was brash. Jesus used even satirical language
00:01:34.840 against His opposition, against His opponents. Jesus said that the Pharisees were like whitewashed
00:01:42.760 tombs. They were pretty and bleached on the outside, but on the inside, they were like a
00:01:49.880 rotting corpse that reaped of death and decay. Jesus says all these kinds of things. It's
00:01:58.680 satirical language. Jesus is poking jabs at the opposition, but all of it is toward the goal of
00:02:09.500 bringing glory to the Father. See, gentlemen, true gentlemen, Christian gentlemen fight.
00:02:19.880 What makes someone gentle is not that they don't fight. 0.54
00:02:22.340 What makes someone gentle is that when they fight,
00:02:25.220 not if, but when they fight,
00:02:27.380 they fight for the right reasons.
00:02:29.520 They fight about the right things
00:02:31.260 for the right reasons in the right way.
00:02:35.120 And the right way still includes a fight.
00:02:39.000 It includes at times strong language.
00:02:42.100 It includes courage.
00:02:43.800 It includes boldness.
00:02:46.080 From time to time, it may even include
00:02:47.880 a little bit of satire.
00:02:49.880 towards your opponents. 0.96
00:02:51.920 Jesus modeled it.
00:02:53.780 So did the Apostle Paul. 1.00
00:02:55.960 Those circumcisers of the flesh, 1.00
00:02:58.000 I wish they'd go the whole way 1.00
00:02:59.700 and emasculate themselves.
00:03:02.300 That's hyperbole.
00:03:04.280 Satirical.
00:03:06.040 He is jabbing at the opposition.
00:03:10.040 Even to the church, he says. 1.00
00:03:12.460 Oh, foolish Galatians, 1.00
00:03:14.260 who has bewitched you? 1.00
00:03:16.040 A.K.A. I was just there.
00:03:18.300 I clearly preached truth.
00:03:19.880 You've already abandoned it.
00:03:21.660 It's as though you've fallen under some kind of spell.
00:03:24.800 Surely, underneath ordinary circumstances,
00:03:27.200 you couldn't possibly be so dense.
00:03:30.460 This is the apostle.
00:03:33.000 This is the fighting style of Jesus.
00:03:37.160 And this must not be interpreted
00:03:39.260 or understood as being something outside of gentleness.
00:03:43.800 This, rather, must be understood
00:03:45.480 as something that falls well within the bounds
00:03:48.560 of biblical gentleness.
00:03:50.860 So, the man of God must flee worldliness
00:03:54.060 and pursue righteousness, godliness,
00:03:58.120 faith, love, steadfastness, and gentleness.
00:04:02.960 And that gentleness in no way stands
00:04:06.660 in contradiction to the very third command,
00:04:10.700 which is to fight.
00:04:14.100 Fight about the right things.
00:04:16.140 God's glory.
00:04:16.780 sound doctrine
00:04:19.340 and fight with the right motives
00:04:22.660 for the right reasons
00:04:23.800 God's glory
00:04:25.240 the good of God's people
00:04:27.340 and fight in the right ways
00:04:30.440 which at times
00:04:33.540 this is probably the most difficult category
00:04:37.100 that requires the most maturity and discernment
00:04:39.580 but at times
00:04:40.700 fighting in the right way
00:04:42.560 with gentleness
00:04:44.000 can sometimes include
00:04:46.660 very strong poignant language oh hi i didn't see you there thanks for sticking around i've
