How Can I Stop Someone From Sinning?


It's a question we frequently ponder: How can we guide someone away from sin and back onto the right path?

Commonly, our approach involves preaching and attempting to persuade them of their wrongdoings. However, this often results in annoyance or, unintentionally, drives them further from the right path, despite our good intentions. So, what is the most effective way to support and understand someone who is deviating from the right path and engaging in sinful behavior?
