Abstract
Intolerance is a harmful behaviour that can threaten the continuity of harmonious life in society. In the context of Christianity, biblical views provide an understanding of intolerance and how to overcome such behaviour. This research aims to explore the biblical view of intolerance and provide solutions to overcome such behaviour. The research method used is a literature study by collecting references from the Bible and related sources. The results show that the Bible emphasises the importance of love, tolerance and humility in interacting with others. The solution to overcoming intolerance is by practising these values in daily life.
