START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION
(KJV) Galatians 6:1
Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
RESTORE HIM GENTLY / GALATIANS 6:1
The word “restore” (Greek katartizo) is used in the New Testament for mending fishing nets (Matthew 4:21), but in reference to people it means developing and perfecting human character (2 Corinthians 13:11). With this in mind, Christians must help wayward believers to mend and heal spiritually by guiding them in their desire and efforts to turn from their own defiant ways, to surrender to Christ’s control and to renew their full devotion to Jesus Christ. This may involve disciplinary action (Matthew 13:30), which should be done humbly and firmly, but “gently.”
Paul here is not thinking of the serious sins and open and unashamed moral violations that bring public disgrace to Christ and the congregation (1 Corinthians 5:5). Such sins may require temporary exclusion from the church before restoration is granted (1 Corinthians 5:11).
