Prov. 18:13<\/a>)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nLiving Bible paraphrases this verse, \u201cWhat a shame\u2014yes, how stupid!\u2014to decide before knowing the facts!\u201d This pinpoints an important lesson. You cannot make an intelligent decision until you hear all the facts. Unfortunately many Christians do not wait to hear both sides of an issue. They form a judgment on the basis of one man\u2019s story, and often that judgment is totally wrong.<\/p>\n
In 1979 Gary Brooks (fictitious name) was a member of the Board of Deacons of an evangelical church. He was extremely popular. He had a warm, outgoing personality. Whenever he entered a room full of people, it seemed to light up. He distinguished himself by serving the members of the church whenever they needed help. He was always attentive to the older folks in the congregation. His wife and two sons were also active in church affairs. The Brooks were looked on as a model family.<\/p>\n
It was like an exploding bomb, therefore, when word got out that the elders had disciplined Gary by relieving him of his work as a deacon and asking him to refrain from participating in the communion service. Friends rallied to his defense and called on other church members to oppose the elders in this decision. The elders were at a disadvantage, not wishing to make a public announcement of all they knew. So they had to sit back and listen to Gary\u2019s virtues being extolled, knowing that there was another side to the story. And they had to take considerable abuse in the process.<\/p>\n
What did the elders know? They knew that Gary\u2019s marriage was on the rocks because he had been carrying on an affair with his secretary. They knew that he had misappropriated church funds to finance his high lifestyle. They knew that he had engaged in unethical business practices, and that his testimony in the business world was negative. They also knew that he had lied to them when they confronted him with evidence of his wrongdoing.<\/p>\n
Rather than submit to the discipline of the elders, Gary organized his friends in open defiance, even at the risk of splitting the church. Eventually a few of his followers spoke to one of the elders and learned some of the sad facts, but then they were too ashamed to do an about face. So they continued to fight on his behalf.<\/p>\n
Three lessons emerge from all of this for us. First, don\u2019t try to form a judgment until you know all the facts. Second, if you can\u2019t get all the facts, withhold your judgment. Finally, don\u2019t let the bonds of friendship pressure you into defending unrighteousness.<\/p>\n

\u00bbWer Antwort gibt, bevor er zuh\u00f6rt, dem ist es Narrheit und Schande.\u00ab Spr\u00fcche 18,13<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nModern formuliert k\u00f6nnte man den Vers so wiedergeben: \u00bbWas f\u00fcr eine Schande, ja, wie dumm ist es, zu entscheiden, bevor man \u00fcberhaupt die Sachlage kennt!\u00ab Das ist eine wichtige Lehre auch f\u00fcr uns. Man kann keine vern\u00fcnftige Entscheidung treffen, bevor man alle Tatsachen untersucht hat. Leider warten viele Christen nicht, bis sie beide Seiten in einer Sache geh\u00f6rt haben. Sie bilden sich ihr \u2013 oftmals v\u00f6llig falsches \u2013 Urteil schon aufgrund einer Geschichte, die sie von irgendjemand geh\u00f6rt haben.<\/p>\n
Gary Brooks war einer der Diakone einer evangelikalen Gemeinde in den USA. Er war ungeheuer bekannt und beliebt. Er hatte eine sehr herzliche und offene Art. Immer wenn er in einen Raum voller Leute kam, schien es hell zu werden. Er zeichnete sich dadurch aus, dass er den Mitgliedern seiner Kirche diente, wenn sie Hilfe brauchten. Er behandelte auch die \u00e4lteren Leute in seiner Gemeinde besonders aufmerksam. Seine Frau und seine zwei S\u00f6hne waren ebenfalls aktiv im Leben der Gemeinde engagiert. Die Brooks galten allgemein als eine vorbildliche Familie.<\/p>\n
Daher wirkte es wie eine Bombe, als pl\u00f6tzlich das Ger\u00fccht aufkam, dass die \u00c4ltesten der Gemeinde Gary Brooks aus disziplinarischen Gr\u00fcnden aus seiner Arbeit als Diener der Gemeinde entfernt und ihn gebeten h\u00e4tten, von der Teilnahme am Abendmahl abzusehen. Freunde taten sich emp\u00f6rt zu seiner Verteidigung zusammen und riefen andere Gemeindemitglieder auf, sich gegen die Entscheidung der \u00c4ltesten zur Wehr zu setzen. Die \u00c4ltesten wollten das, was sie wussten, nur sehr ungern an die gro\u00dfe Glocke h\u00e4ngen. So mussten sie sich anh\u00f6ren, wie die Tugenden von Gary Brooks in den h\u00f6chsten T\u00f6nen gelobt wurden, obwohl sie wussten, dass die Kehrseite der Medaille sehr viel anders aussah. Und sie mussten sich im Laufe der Sache auch noch heftig beschimpfen lassen.<\/p>\n
Welche Informationen hatten die \u00c4ltesten nun eigentlich? Sie wussten, dass Brooks\u2019 Ehe auf der Kippe stand, weil er schon l\u00e4ngere Zeit ein Verh\u00e4ltnis mit seiner Sekret\u00e4rin hatte. Sie wussten, dass er sich widerrechtlich Gelder der Gemeinde angeeignet hatte, um seinen gehobenen Lebensstil finanzieren zu k\u00f6nnen. Sie wussten, dass er sich mit sehr unfairen Gesch\u00e4ftspraktiken
\nhervorgetan hatte und dass sein Ruf in der Gesch\u00e4ftswelt denkbar schlecht war. Und sie wussten au\u00dferdem, dass er sie angelogen hatte, als sie ihn mit Beweisen f\u00fcr sein Fehlverhalten konfrontiert hatten.<\/p>\n
Anstatt sich zu beugen, hatte Gary Brooks seine Freunde in offener Herausforderung organisiert und war damit sogar das Risiko eingegangen, die Gemeinde zu spalten. Schlie\u00dflich sprachen ein paar seiner Gefolgsleute mit einem der \u00c4ltesten und erfuhren dadurch etwas von den traurigen Tatsachen, doch sie sch\u00e4mten sich zu sehr, jetzt noch eine Kehrtwendung zu machen. Und so k\u00e4mpften sie weiter f\u00fcr Brooks.<\/p>\n
Drei Dinge k\u00f6nnen wir aus alledem lernen. Erstens: Versuchen wir nicht, uns schon ein Urteil zu bilden, bevor wir alle Tatsachen kennen. Zweitens: Wenn wir nicht alle Tatsachen in Erfahrung bringen k\u00f6nnen, halten wir uns mit unserem Urteil zur\u00fcck. Und drittens: Lassen wir es nicht zu, dass die Bande der Freundschaft uns dazu bringen, Unrecht zu verteidigen.<\/p>\n
