Arguing Fairly

Don’t deal with criticism by shifting blame. Admit when you’re wrong and ask forgiveness. Don’t deny or ignore it. Otherwise you are dishonest, and the wound will take longer to heal between you.
- Say “You’re right, I’m wrong, please forgive me.”
There’s a place for rebuke (Prov. 28:23), and a wise person values a proper rebuke.
