Bring him back
“Finally, as members of God’s beloved family, we must go after the one who wanders from the truth and bring him back. For the one who restores the sinning believer back to God from the error of his way, gives back to his soul life from the dead, and covers over countless sins by their demonstration of love!” James 5:19-20 (TPT)
As we are clocking down the year 2021.
There is one more thing you need to do.
Remember?
That brother or Sister that started the year with you as a child of God?
You did not see them in the fellowship again.
Don’t assume that they just got busy.
Or possibly they relocated?
When some people have challenges, they just withdraw.
Get down from your high horse of being the “holy one.”
Remember the parable of the lost lamb.
“There once was a shepherd with a hundred lambs, but one of his lambs wandered away and was lost. So the shepherd left the ninety-nine lambs out in the open field and searched in the wilderness for that one lost lamb. He didn’t stop until he finally found it. With exuberant joy, he raised it up, placed it on his shoulders, and carried it back with cheerful delight!” Luke 15:4-5 (TPT)
Stop ostracizing those who made mistakes.
They need true and faithful mentors.
Show them the pathway to overcoming without condemnation.
Refrain from the gossips about the brethren that missed it.
As the shepherd went in search of that one lost lamb.
Jesus came to seek those that were lost.
Please pray and be guided to look for them.
Again, forgive and don’t be judgmental.
Go Bring them back into the Kingdom
