Restoring/refreshing one another

  Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gently. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted. (Galatians 6:1) Let's think on the phrase "Restore him gently" for a moment. This means in a kind warm loving way to refresh him/her in the lord and to talk & be understanding of others .To give aid and counsel to someone we see straying from God . This dosent mean judge , bible beat , condemn and Bible beat someone to death ... Sadly I've encountered harsh criticism and self righteous judgment from brothers or sisters of the faith and it's the one place in this world its not needed and shouldnt be . We must always remember once we too were unsaved or in sin at one time many of us in bondage to sins if all sorts , and the lord was good to save us and take away the desire to say or do them bad things we used to ,,and mostlylet's noy forget his patience with us This is how we are to be when we are "restoring someone in the Lord . Chances are good the person already feels awful about whatever fall or sin they may have done already. So friends if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him/ GENTLY ! Have a Blessed & Wonderful Day !
