Shoes of Discord
(Disagreement among persons or things. between persons, difference of opinions; variance; opposition; contention; strife; any disagreement which produces angry passions, contests, disputes, litigation or war. Discord may exist between families, parties and nations.)
 
 

"Sowers of Discord" sow the seeds of bitterness, anger, distrust, and hatred into the ground of other people’s hearts.  These actions do not come from the Spirit of God. Such divisive behavior is included in what the bible calls “the works of the flesh.”

 Believers are told to not speak evil about each other. 1 Corinthians 13 teachs us that love should be the way of all believers. 

 

James 4:10-12 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up. Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge. There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?

 

Proverbs 6:19..- A false witness [that] speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

James 3:16...For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.

Romans 16:17.. - Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.

Exodus 20:16..Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.

Romans 13:9..For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if [there be] any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
