Agree and the rebuke must be done in love. Rebuking someone’s sin any other way simply turns that person away from Christ.


So if you can’t do it with love, don’t do it? You just don’t want to take the chance of offending someone do you? Offending someone to correct them IS AN ACT OF LOVE.

Incorrect. I don't want to take the chance of being responsible and standing before God for having turned someone away from him permanently.

Do you get in someone's face and scream at them about being a sinner and they're going to hell unless they repent?
