How to Keep Other Christians Accountable for Sin

April 5, 2018

In my last post, I discussed why it’s OK to keep other Christians accountable when it comes to sin. I broke down that in our modern Christian culture it has somehow become taboo to “call each other out” for sin and if we don’t do it, we aren’t helping each other grow spiritually.

Since I said we should do it, I wanted to also share how to do it. The following scriptures explain how to do this process effectively.

Remember, this process should be entered into prayerfully and should also only be done with someone you already have an established positive relationship with. The other person needs to already know you have a sincere heart and a genuine concern for his/her well being.

Two Reasons It’s OK for Christians to “call each other out” for Sin

April 3, 2018

Have you ever had a person notice that you were sinning and “call you out” on it? How did you feel? Did it change your perspective? Did you get upset?

Confession time: I was saved at age 13 and lived a faithful Christian life; however, somewhere along the way, I began to think that I was better than other Christians because “my sin wasn’t as bad as their sin.” This is a prideful and self-deceiving attitude, but I acquired it nonetheless.

Then, my senior year of college, I had an experience that forever changed me. I was in the car with a guy friend and saw a girl that I absolutely could not stand. I looked at him and said, “Do you see that girl right there? She is terrible…” and went on to list every negative thing I knew about her.

Two Truths Regarding the Reality of Sin in Our Anything Goes Culture| Christian Teens| Struggles| Sin| Transformed4More.com| Ministry for Teenage Girls

Jane became a Christian at the age of 12. She participated in all the “Christian” activities such as going to church, youth group, going on a mission trip, and keeping “sin” at bay. She felt strong in her beliefs until she turned sixteen. Two years of high school caused her to see behaviors she wanted to participate in, even though she knew it was against God’s word.

Many of her peers sinned freely and seemingly without any consequences. Jane was constantly reminded of the “fun” they were having every time she scrolled through her social media feed. “What’s the big deal?” she began to think. “I mean is there really anything wrong with what they’re doing? These acts and behaviors plastered everywhere, so it can’t be that bad, can it?”
