Turns

Book: James
Chapter: 5
Verse: 20
Phrase: Remember this, whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save him.
Word: turns
Thought: It is not enough to just convicne sinners intellectually that what they are doing is in violation of God's commands. If I am to save a sinner I must turn him. Turning involves change and for most sinners it is more than just a course correction, it is a dramatic and painful process. Repentance is the hard work part of evangelism. It is much easier to condemn or condone.
