“Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.”
Galatians 6:1-2 KJV
Paul is teaching this principle to the Church that if we see a believer who is overtaken with a fault, we, who are in the Spirit, should seek to restore that person in the Spirit of gentleness. But keep watch over our own heart so that we won’t be tempted to exalt ourselves over that person. Love empowers us to fulfill the law of the Anointed One as we carry each other’s troubles. God has called the Church to bring restoration so that we walk in His grace. The Church is not here to bring condemnation. We must be so filled with the love of the Father, that we restore others with meekness. If the love of the world is in us, we will bring hurt, pain and sorrow and walk in self righteousness. Let’s walk in grace, which comes to the humble of heart. Let’s believe that the Blood of the Lamb of God was shed for every person and so to love others with the love of the Father. Thank You for Your love for each one of us, Heavenly Father! Amen!
