The LORD JESUS CHRIST was never resentful at the way He was treated. (1 Pet. 2:19-23).

How can we avoid being easily offended? How can we offense proof our lives?

I. Admiration of God's Word (vs. 161-162)

II. Adoration for God's Word (vs. 163, 165, 167)

David is straightforward about where he stood.

III. Acclamation for God's Word (v. 164)

IV. Adherence to God's Word (vs. 166-168)

The blessing of living a life free of offense. It is up to us. If we get offended it is our own fault. The key to an offensive-proof life is our relationship to God's Word.
