Galatians 6:1-5

Passage

Paul writes to the Galatian church instructing them that when one of the believers is caught in a transgression, they should be restored with gentleness. The keys here are he is talking about restoration of believers who have strayed, and using gentleness, not harsh words, to bring them back.

It is easy for us to point out the sins of others, especially those outside our own circle. Christ provided the example in His teaching by instructing us to come alongside in a loving manner to restore relationships with Christ. The gentle approach demonstrates the loving care as brothers and sisters, and strengthens the disciple in their walk as they are guided back to fully following God.
