James 5:19,20 - NEXT STEPS
1. It is our responsibility to bring people back to God's truth
James encourages those who are willing to go after people who are sinning; and with the rest of Scripture we know the importance and responsibility of reaching out to our fallen brothers and sisters in Christ. This has been an area I have taken much more seriously in recent years, even though it is full of risks and consequences.
2. Evaluate your own heart, and then humbly attempt to rescue them from God's judgment.
This is crucial, to make sure that we have confessed our own sins, before we attempt to go after others and help them. But, once we have done, that, we must go after those struggling with sin, as thought their lives depended on it.
3. Be encouraged that you are doing the right thing.
This command is very tough, at times, so it is good to remember that God wants us to do it, He will bless it; and it is God's will.
