Proverbs 22:10

10: Throw out the mocker, and fighting, quarrels, and insults will disappear.

God will judge those on the outside; but as the Scriptures say, "You must remove the evil person from among you."

But Sarah saw Ishmael--the son of Abraham and her Egyptian servant Hagar--making fun of Isaac.
So she turned to Abraham and demanded, "Get rid of that servant and her son. He is not going to share the family inheritance with my son, Isaac. I won't have it!"

One of the sons of Joiada son of Eliashib the high priest had married a daughter of Sanballat the Horonite, so I banished him from my presence.

Sanballat was very angry when he learned that we were rebuilding the wall. He flew into a rage and mocked the Jews,
saying in front of his friends and the Samarian army officers, "What does this bunch of poor, feeble Jews think they are doing? Do they think they can build the wall in a day if they offer enough sacrifices? Look at those charred stones they are pulling out of the rubbish and using again!"
Tobiah the Ammonite, who was standing beside him, remarked, "That stone wall would collapse if even a fox walked along the top of it!"

If that person still refuses to listen, take your case to the church. If the church decides you are right, but the other person won't accept it, treat that person as a pagan or a corrupt tax collector.

A quarrelsome person starts fights as easily as hot embers light charcoal or fire lights wood.
