Condition yourself to do so.
Train yourself to do so.
Consistently practice doing so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Seek the Bible for–
— for everything
— for \u201cdoctrine\u201d (it\u2019s in there—IT says so)
— for labels for your beliefs (use what IT says already—don\u2019t add man-made wording !—don\u2019t do it—everybody does it—don\u2019t do it)
— \u201creproof\u201d, discipline, \u201ccorrection\u201d, \u201crebuke\u201d, reprimand, censure, criticism, condemnation (it\u2019s in there— IT says so—IT does a thorough job—if you think you must do or say more, watch out —don\u2019t do it)
— \u201cinstruction\u201d (it\u2019s in there— IT says so—don\u2019t think or say that you can tell \u2018what IT really says\u2019—don\u2019t do that—let IT speak for itself)
— \u201crighteous\u201d, \u201cperfect\u201d (how ?—it\u2019s in there— IT says so—read IT, study IT)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Man shows man how to be better ?—always, forever—nonsense, futility, like enthusiasm on a treadmill going downhill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
