“My brothers, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and someone brings him back, let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from his wandering will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.”James 5:19-20 ESV

All,
This stands out because James says, “whoever brings back a sinner from his wandering will save his soul from death”. No one likes to be corrected or disciplined, but true friends and loved ones care for each other too much to let another wander too far off the path. It seems unloving and judging to speak the truth in love at first, but very appreciative later. I know I have needed plenty of correction by loving parents and friends and I suspect most of you have needed it also. Please pray that we and our friends follow God’s nudge if we see a friend in trouble of wandering off the path. Please pray for the men considering CLC.
