DON’T!

Matthew 18:15-22

Unwise criticism is the commonest and most hurtful thing in life, next to sin. Its acid touch burns and blights everywhere. Jesus gives us here the simple love-law of criticism; this: Never criticize anyone, with four qualifications: (1) except to help; (2) then alone with the person concerned; (3) then only from your knees and on your knees; and (4) in the spirit of utmost humility and persistent forgiving love. When that fails personal re­sponsibility ends. But—“love never faileth.”
