Proverbs 10:17

A wise person accepts correction. He wants advice. Other people will benefit from this. They will copy the wise man’s actions. The wise person leads other people. He shows them the right way to live.

A church leader must be careful. Other people will copy his actions. ‘God will be a strict judge with us because we teach other people.’ (James 3:1)

When a person refuses correction, other people will suffer. Other people will make the same mistake. Nobody will learn.
