Solution for Contention - Scriptures

I learned something from S. Dilworth Young that I should have known before. I reported that in a stake I found contention. I really didn't known how to handle it. Brother Young said, "The way you handle that is to read the scriptures." Then he said, "If in a Sunday School class there is a problem and they are debating over an issue, have them read the scriptures."

I said, "What scriptures?"

He said, "It doesn't matter. It really doesn't. Just have them read the scriptures."

There is great, consoling medication in the scriptures.
