Question:
If a person is away from the Lord, should we completely ignore him or her?

Answer:
We should not be close to someone who claims to be a Christian, but doesn’t act like one. Though we have to be in close contact with the Lord: “spiritual” (Galatians 6:1), if He is going to use us to help others. Restoration is the Lord’s work: “He restoreth my soul” (Psalm 23:3), and if a person is truly saved and gets away from the Lord, He will bring him back (see Philippians 1:6).
