Those of us who have children- do you ever discipline them, or confront them about their behavior? Do you just tolerate what they are doing "because you love them so much". I hope not. God is our father, and He has His commands we must obey- if he tolerated us, God would not have sent Jesus. His love was shown on the cross- but He desires a change in behavior as well, and we are held accountable for that. IF someone is sinning, we should gently confront because we want what is best for others- not to make us look better, because we are sinners saved by grace- Tolerating sin is not love, it is apathy
