Bible Question: If you never talk to a person and make them cry, just because you never talk to them for a year and never see them again, is that a sin? Or is it just you saying I don't want to have anything to do with you. |
Bible Answer: It would depend on who the person is such as is it your family, i.e., mother, father, brother, sister, child. If it is do a work search on those terms. Also on orphan and widow, poor. Is the person in need? Do a word search on how to treat the needy, the alien, the stranger. The good thing about the bible is that you can do these word searches to see how we are to relate to others. Also the fruit of the spirit is love, genleness, kindness, etc. A word search on these show the attitude we are to have. As someone else has said pray. Pray for this person every day. Pray for yourself for wisdom. James 1:2 Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, James 1:3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. James 1:4 And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. James 1:5 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him. |
