How is “Admonish the Sinner” a Work of Mercy? (23OA-17)

We are called to love. Love is to desire the good of another for the other’s sake. Correcting a bad behavior is love of a parent or friend. But do we forget to do this in faith?

 We know the corporal works of mercy, but do we know the spiritual works of mercy? One of the spiritual works of mercy is Admonish the Sinner. Jesus tells us how to do that today. Also to remember James 5:19-20 "My brethren, if any one among you wanders from the truth and some one brings him back, let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins."
