“If another believer is overcome… help that person.” Galatians 6:1 NLT
It’s okay to confront somebody you believe is in the wrong, but not with a self-righteous attitude. When church leaders insisted a woman “caught in the act of adultery” be stoned John 8:4, Jesus replied, “Let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone” John 8:7
The Bible says, ‘If another believer is overcome by some sin, you who are godly should gently and humbly help that person back onto the right path. And be careful not to fall into the same temptation yourself.’ The only One who was worthy to condemn us, chose instead to pardon us…and in light of our own sinner-saved-by-grace (status)—when the Holy Spirit impresses you to confront someone who’s messed up, do it with honesty, compassion and humility.”
