The Poison of Grumbling and Disputing: Philippians 2:14
“Do all things without grumbling or disputing;” Philippians 2:14
The problem with grumbling and disputing, murmuring and complaining is that the flesh is in control. It gives way to a constant dripping of bad attitudes. It destroys momentum and kills vision. It is the expression of rebellion. There is no place for it in the church.
Paul mentioned this in 1 Corinthians 10:10. It was one of the big problems among some of the children of Israel who came out of Egypt under Moses. They were rebels.
They ended up being destroyed by the destroyer. They followed the rebellion of Korah. (See numbers 16) Korah and his followers rejected both God and His choice of leadership. They disputed with Moses and challenged his authority.
Grumbles and complainers poison other people. They can never be pleased or satisfied. Nothing is ever good enough for them.
If you are a constant grumbler and complainer, then repent and die to self. The world is not about you!
