Bible verses about "dispute" | WPNT

¹⁹ Dear ones, do not avenge yourselves; rather give place to the wrath; for it is written: “Vengeance is up to me; I will repay”, says the Lord.

¹ How can anyone of you who has a dispute with another dare to have it judged before the unrighteous, and not before the saints? ² Don’t you know that the saints are to be judging the world? So if the world is to be judged by you, are you not competent to judge the smallest matters? ³ Don’t you know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life! ⁴ Therefore, if you have disputes about such matters, appoint those who are least esteemed in the congregation to judge! ⁵ I say this to your shame. Can it be that there is not a single wise man among you who would be competent to conduct a hearing among his brothers? ⁶ Instead, brother goes to law against brother, and this before unbelievers!

¹⁵ “Now if your brother sins against you, go, confront him between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have won your brother. ¹⁶ But should he not hear, take along with you one or two more, so that every word may be established by the mouth of two or three witnesses. ¹⁷ And should he refuse to hear them, tell it to the congregation. But should he refuse to hear even the congregation, let him be to you just like the heathen and the tax collector.
