Take-Home Truth

Lovingly confront and correct fellow believers who persist in disobedience, maintaining both firm boundaries and a brotherly spirit with the goal of restoration.

Discussion/Reflection Questions

1. How do I typically respond when I see a fellow believer persist in disobedience or harmful behavior? 2. Am I willing to confront someone gently and biblically when necessary, even if it feels uncomfortable? 3. Have I ever ignored clear biblical instruction in my own life? 4. Do I see others who are struggling as enemies or as brothers and sisters who need grace and restoration? 5. How can I grow in accountability within the church community, both in receiving it and offering it to others?

Supplemental Scripture Reading: Galatians 6:1

“Brothers and sisters, if someone is overtaken in any wrongdoing, you who are spiritual, restore such a person with a gentle spirit, watching out for yourselves so that you also won’t be tempted.”

Memory Verse: 2 Thessalonians 3:14–15

“If anyone does not obey our instruction in this letter, take note of that person; don’t associate with him, so that he may be ashamed. Yet don’t consider him as an enemy, but warn him as a brother.”
