Admonish One Another June 21

Admonish One Another

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” [Col.3:16, NKJV].
What in the world is admonish?

In the Nestle’s Greek translation of text, the word is from Noutheteo, meaning to gently confront or warn.

So we are to do Nouthetic sharing.
1.   Nouthetic confrontation always implies a problem and suggests an obstacle in one’s life.
2.   Nouthesis is always done by verbal approach as a word of encouragement or reproof.
3.   Nouthetic encounter is always motivated by Christ’s love. Any correction should be of tender concern to benefit the person. [1Cor.4:14].
