Scripture Text: James 5: 19-20
1. A Christian is a sinner saved by grace. A Christian is not perfect and will still fall into sin when we are not watchful.
2. When we see a brethren fall into sin, we are to help and pray for that brethren. We must do it in meekness knowing that we too can fall into sin.
3. A backslidden brethren is one who has fallen for a period of time but not continuously. He or she will repent of the sin and come back to God. However, if the person persists in sin and continues to deny Christ, then there is the possibility of this person actually is not saved at all.
4. It is our duty to reach out to such people and bring them back to the Lord Jesus Christ. We are not to judge nor to condemn them.
5. When a person is restored to Christ, the soul is saved from spiritual death. This is the grace of God and the wonderful work of God.
