How can admonishing another persons sin be an act of Mercy? Br. Christopher Wetzel, O.P. preaches at St. Dominic’s on the Spiritual Act of Mercy that is Admonishing The Sinner.

 

While it may be uncomfortable for both parties to have someone point out our sins, the alternative leads us to continue on a path away from God. We often confirm ourselves when we repeat a sin with justification and other lies, this leads to continued suffering and damage rather than the freedom of forgiveness and grace.  Listen and reflect.
