Matthew 18:15-20:
In this discourse Jesus’ teaching concerns active forgiveness on the part of the community whether one on one, before witnesses or in a discussion involving the entire community. Regardless the outcome, Jesus promises to be with the community building itself in his name.
It is difficult to know the way to lovingly confront a family member or friend who has chosen the crooked path. Though there is risk of estrangement, give me the courage to do so for their sake.
