Lesson 46: The Love That Confronts

Paul taught that since a man’s heart is often deeper than his own knowledge, we are to leave the judgment of men’s hearts to God. The Bible does not teach we should never judge another person, but to judge ourselves first, for sometimes it is necessary to make judgments about those who persist in their sin. Our motive for confronting them must always be love, with the goal of restoration to fellowship with the Lord and the body of Christ.
