Becoming Unoffendable, by Senior Pastor Fred Garcia

What is offense? According to Merriam-Webster, it’s something that outrages the moral or physical senses. Here’s some of what God’s Word has to say about it.

Pro 24:19 (TPT) Don’t be angrily offended over evildoers or be agitated by them.

Proverbs
 12:16 (TPT) If you shrug off an insult and refuse to take offense, you demonstrate discretion indeed. But the fool has a short fuse and will immediately let you know when he’s offended.

Psalms
 119:165 (TPT) There is such a great peace and well-being that comes to the lovers of your Word, and they will never be offended.

Romans 1:18 (NASB) For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men (not the person themselves) who suppress the truth in unrighteousness


Isaiah 53:7 (NASB) He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He did not open His mouth; Like a lamb that is led to slaughter, And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers, So He did not open His mouth.

Let your offense be turned to the only one you have a right to be offended at, the devil, turn your face towards heaven and look for solutions!
