[QUOTE="RDKirk, post: 68932808, member: 326155"] Only if you have actually been given responsibility for her weight. That would include, for instance, my subordinates when I was in the military. I was officially responsible--and would be held accountable by my superiors-- for their fitness for duty, which included noticing their weight and putting them on a supervised weight management program, if that was required. In 1 Peter, the apostle specifically identifies it as a sin to be a "false overseer." The Greek word is often translated as "meddler," but the direct translation is "false overseer." In other words, trying to be the boss of someone you don't actually have accountability for, or bossing them in an area you don't have authority over or accountability for. If you're not being held accountable, you have no business giving them instruction. We do have responsibility for one another's well being. Again, the military provides an example: If I were going out into combat and my buddy noticed something wrong with my gear, I'd certainly want him to[B] tell me: [/B] "Hey, man, you have a buckle loose." And as well, he'd expect me to tell him if something was wrong with his gear. [/QUOTE]
