If you listen to constructive criticism, you will be at home among the wise.
If you ignore criticism, you will end in poverty and disgrace; if you accept correction, you will be honored.
Whoever stubbornly refuses to accept criticism will suddenly be destroyed beyond recovery.
My dear children, let's not just talk about love; let's practice real love. This is the only way we'll know we're living truly, living in God's reality. It's also the way to shut down debilitating self-criticism, even when there is something to it. For God is greater than our worried hearts and knows more about us than we do ourselves.
Personally, I've been completely satisfied with who you are and what you are doing. You seem to me to be well-motivated and well-instructed, quite capable of guiding and advising one another. So, my dear friends, don't take my rather bold and blunt language as criticism. It's not criticism. I'm simply underlining how very much I need your help in carrying out this highly focused assignment God gave me, this priestly and gospel work of serving the spiritual needs of the non-Jewish outsiders so they can be presented as an acceptable offering to God, made whole and holy by God's Holy Spirit.
Proverbs 15:31 Proverbs 13:18 Proverbs 29:1 1 John 3:18 Romans 15:14
Never fear criticism when you’re right; never ignore it when you’re wrong.
