The Bible is a relational book. It reveals God’s holy standard for the way we are to interact with one another. You, therefore, have scriptural support to confront when someone violates God’s standard and steps over your moral, physical, or emotional boundaries—or those of another person.

The 11 Commandments of Confrontation

#1 God declares that you are to show respect and are to be treated with respect.

“Show proper respect to everyone.” (1 Peter 2:17)

“Each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to his neighbor.” (Ephesians 4:25)

#3 God declares that you are to listen to others and that others should listen to you.

“Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry.” (James 1:19)

#4 God declares that you are to express appropriate anger and to have anger appropriately expressed toward you.

“In your anger do not sin.” (Ephesians 4:26)

#5 God declares that you are to give and to receive only justifiable rebukes.

“He who listens to a life-giving rebuke will be at home among the wise.” (Proverbs 15:31)

#6 God declares that you are to value and to protect your conscience.

“I strive always to keep my conscience clear before God and man.” (Acts 24:16)

“The first to present his case seems right, till another comes forward and questions him.” (Proverbs 18:17)

“Let us not give up meeting together ... but let us encourage one another.” (Hebrews 10:25)
