Why did Jesus tell the rich young man to go sell all his posessions before he c`d follow him?

Because its is not easy to serve both God and Treasures. And he still meant that God will open up a new chapter for the man, because Jesus might have seen it that he did not aquire the posessions in a righteous way thats why he told him about the commandments. Jesus said that one should seek ye first the Kingdom of God and every thing shall be added un to him.

Why is it helpful to confront a brother alone first, before involving others in confronting him?

It seems like a simple thing, to confront your brother alone doesn`t it? Give him a chance to put right his wrong, without embarrassment. But what then, if he doesn`t listen? This happened to us - the brother would not listen, so others in the family were involved, he still did not listen. Then, the family member who was wronged died. The brother still did not repent or right the wrong, even though the deceased member had begged him the day before he died. This was 2 years ago, still the brother has not repented. The bible says treat him like a gentile or tax collector. But in Matthew 18:21-22 Jesus says you should forgive your brother not 7 times, but 77 times. So, what should we do? Forgive the brother, or treat him like a gentile or tax collector??? This is our family dilemma, we would welcome your thoughts on a suitable course of action.

The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant

Because God has forgiven our sins so we should forgive others theirs. God wants us to be more Christ like.
