| dc.description.abstract | This essay explores the theological foundation and practical application of brotherly admonition within Christian congregations. Koelpin emphasizes the biblical mandate for such admonition, rooted in God’s love and the desire for repentance and restoration of straying believers. The paper discusses the need for congregations to be equipped in understanding sin and the process of admonition, highlighting the role of pastoral leadership in guiding this process. The importance of self-discipline among believers and the church's responsibility in teaching and preaching for the prevention of sin are also explored. Koelpin offers practical insights and guidelines for effectively administering brotherly admonition, stressing the need for an attitude of love, humility, and a focus on restoration. | en_US |
