Doesn't a sinner have to turn from the error of his own way? Who is saving his soul from death and covering a multitude of sins? -the one who turns a sinner? -Christ? If the latter, how does the one who turns a sinner get involved in the process? |

2 | Who is saving his soul from death? | James 5:20 | There | 12922 | ||
If a person sees another in sin and convinces them to change their mind about commiting that sin, then the person who did the convincing is saving the other person from coming under judgement in that area. Another example: Romans 11:14 "if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh and save some of them..." Neither of the above persons are THE SAVIOR of the World, Jesus Christ, but the above persons can rescue or "save" someone from God's judgment by convincing them to change their thinking or behavior. As to the last part of that verse in James "... and cover a multitude of sins." Peter says it is an act of loving others that covers a multitude of sins (1Peter 4:8). Would it be a loving act to leave a brother drown in their sin, if we could convince them to change their mind? No, none of us would consider that love, but would prefer that someone would talk to us if they noticed sin in our life. |
