衝突解決的九大原則
處理衝突的最終目標是解決問題。以下是處理衝突並朝解決問題邁進的九大原則。 以正確的視角看待衝突 衝突即使在成熟的基督徒之間也是無可避免的。這是因為我們生活在一個墮落的世界，尚未被榮耀。記住，衝突可以被建設性地利用，某種程度的衝突是健康的。 在衝突中帶來和平的最關鍵因素是個人的態度。我對對方的態度必須是充滿愛的。為了讓我的態度充滿愛，我必須與自己和諧相處，並認識到自己在相處中的罪性。如果我自己的生活中有未處理的個人問題，這些問題會在衝突情境中強烈表現出來。 當你感到被同信者冒犯時，總是使用聖經的方法來尋求解決之道（馬太福音 18:15‒17）。 基督教的觀點應該主導我們的處事方式。神仍然是至高無上的，聖靈可以賜予我們洞察力、智慧和力量。基督已經使我們從肉體的控制中得到自由。我們依然是身體上的肢體，神渴望我們在其中合一並有平安（歌羅西書 3:15）。我們的最終目標應該是藉著我們的行動榮耀神，並讓他人因與我們的交往而得到鼓勵和建造。 不要忽視有些衝突是屬靈性質的事實。我們不應該無視撒但的詭計（哥林多後書 2:11）。 讓禱告成為過程的重要部分 設定日期將雙方聚集起來解決衝突。請他們在會議前勤於禱告。鼓勵他們祈求神在他們的生活中作工，揭示他們在衝突中的角色，並使他們理解衝突另一方的立場。 當你把雙方聚集在一起時，先花時間一起禱告，然後再討論問題。在過程中，適時停下來，針對當時正在處理的具體問題進行禱告。 在盡可能低的強度下處理衝突 一旦察覺到有緊張情況，立即與相關人員聚在一起嘗試解決問題。越早解決越好。衝突週期走得越遠，解決起來就越困難。不公平的事積累得越久，需要解決的問題就越多！ 針對衝突中的問題生成有效和有用的訊息…
