What Is the Right Spirit of Correction?

What Is the Right Spirit of Correction? - Answers in Genesis: "Are we defending according to the authority of God’s Word if we defend arrogantly? Galatians 6:1 says we should correct an erring brother with a spirit of gentleness. Gentleness! Has the word “gentleness” ever appeared to you as being authoritative? When the Word of God tells us to do something with gentleness, it says so with full authority. Defending the Christian faith from error within is vitally important, yet we are commanded to do so in a winsome, gentle manner.
