The one who wins the argument is usually the one who acts less like Christ.

Francis Chan
About This Quote

This quote is a great reminder that winning an argument does not end in winning the day or the battle. It doesn’t lead to peace or justice. It only leads to more conflict. Christ never wins an argument, so when you’re in a heated debate with someone it’s best to remember that you are not being Christlike.
