Going the Second Mile to Restore a Brother Galatians 6:1

Going the 2nd Mile to Restore a Brother We are charged with restoring erring brethren (Galatians 6:1; 2 Tim. 2:24-26) Restoring a brother saves a soul (James 5:19-20) Efforts to restore may involve exhortation or rebuke (1 Thess. 5:14; Luke 17:3) Withdrawal may be necessary (Titus 3:10-11; Matt. 18:15-17; 2 Thessalonians 3:16) In efforts to restore brethren who are straying or have become lost, servants of the Lord are called to do much more than one might think, and much more than we are commonly satisfied with doing. This lesson examines what’s involved in doing all that we can do to restore a brother even if he has been withdrawn from.

Going the 2nd Mile to Restore a Brother We must not abandon those who’ve been withdrawn from We are to admonish them (2 Thessalonians 3:14-15) We are to pray for them (1 Samuel 12:23; James 5:16) We must be sympathetic to family members and loved ones who remain faithful (Romans 12:15)

Am I My Brother’s Keeper? Compassion and Courage are Needed! “And on some have compassion, making a distinction; but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh.” (Jude 20-23)
