1 Corinthians 14:26

- when we meet, each one has something to offer for the edification of the brothers and sisters present

Matthew 18:15-17
If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector.
- if a brother or sister sins against you, go and privately tell them
- if they do not respond, take another brother or sister, or two
- if they still do not respond, bring it before the church (the local body of believers, Gr. ekklesia)
- if they still do not respond, treat them as you would a nonbeliever (i.e. not as a brother/sister in the faith)
Ephesians 4:25,29,31-32
Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another... Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear... Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.
- speak truthfully, in love (v.15)
- speak so as to give grace to one another
- love one another and forgive each other
Acts 4:32
All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they shared everything they had.
- be in agreement (with the Lord and thus each other)
- share all possessions
