I personally am a person that believes in tough love. And in my walk with Christ I bear witness of the same, and I thank my GOD for every minute of it.
yet i get confused at times when it comes to this brotherly love thing.
For many times, someone asks something [a favor ow whatever], with quite a spirit of entitlement. The Word says love others as you do yourself. Favoring tough love, I would say its best to get them back in line, brining reality to such perceptions.
Yet I do acknowledge it may cause strife, so maybe just do what they ask?
Yet I feel like im really tightening the yoke of attachment to the carnal by doing so, which deep in my heart i feel is wrong.
Opinions?
