The apostles were wise in how they handled the situation; but let’s face reality, the apostles are now with God in glory and leadership in some churches is lacking. As a result, some churches are filled with fussing, fuming, and fighting.
In mythology we read about Cadmus who slew a dragon. Then he took the dragon’s teeth and sowed them broadcast in a fertile field. When he returned later, he found that each seed had sprung up into a giant. He was afraid of what they might do to him so he decided to employ a clever ruse to cause the giants to fight each other. He threw a stone and struck one of the giants on the ear. This giant thought another giant had struck him, so a fight ensued. Soon all the giants were fighting each other and before long all of them were killed while Cadmus looked on and laughed.
Our churches are full of potential spiritual giants, but Satan often sows discord among the members and they end up as spiritual pygmies, fighting one another…and that’s a disgrace to the cause of Christ.

What to do:
✞Remember, if you are fighting in the church, Satan is laughing.
