Nothing for he is not your child but gods child. remember to leave place for gods wrath and his vengeance. do not judge him and do not condemn him least god punish you. do not worry about him, pray for him and watch god at work, stand back and be amazed. Love him though it seems to be in vein, save him from an eternity in hell, that is what it means to heap coals of fire on his head. though you hate him or he just makes you angry you would rather see him saved then dead.

Look at these scriptures and pray. Job 42: 2-6 (Job believed that he was being punished for some thing he did not know he did, while his friends told him he was being punished because he was sinful, look at Job 25: 1-6, when really if God didn't "let" trouble come God would be a lier, Matt 7:1-6,Matt 6: 14-15, John 3: 18, Titus 2: 6-8 and11-15, James 4:11-12 , 1 peter 1:13-14. What I get from all that is we should just look towards Gods plans for our lives and to do His will. God wants us to seek Him. You've read "seek first, the kingdom of heaven...."Matt 6:33-34. Focus on that, God wants us to grow in spirit. God has plans for you and wants you to focus on loving Him, don't worry about your problems and flaws because when Job said "...and no plans of yours can be thwarted(messed up)..." that means noone, not you and not others. Jesus is "purifying" us and He does it, not man. If that person is reading the Word of God it does say".... rebuke with all authority." but if he is doing it harshly or rudely then he is not doing it the way God wants him to. Sometimes we are hurt by people "reminding" us of our flaws, keep focus on God, for it say in Poverbs 3: 5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths." And that is what all I have typed means. if you want, copy all these scriptures down and give them to him. As a matter of fact, God says to. God bless. The devil is trying to cause strive and confusion in Gods house.

Pray for the person and of course let your pastor know about it.
Maybe this person needs deliverance in that area of his life. Most times when a person is accusing someone of something and being critical or self righteous they're trying to get attention. If the person continues to criticize you separate yourself from him or her and rebuke them if necessary.
Peace,
Hope

I would discuss it with the pastor. Chances are, your talking to this person directly won't make any difference in his behavior. The pastor can set him straight.

What would Jesus do? Just love them anyway and don't give them any fodder to use. Stay away from him but pray for him and have a talk with your pastor. He should be handling this problem.

Pray for patience. If it's a real problem, talk to your pastor. This person might need to be pulled aside and talked to about his behavior.

You have 5 pizzas from 5 different pizza places delivered to their house, one right after the other.
This practice originated in ancient Rome and still works today.

It's easier to point a finger at others than admit to yourself that you are not perfect. I guess we all do it at times.
Try to explain to him what Jesus said at Matthew 7:1:
"Judge not, that ye not be judged." Or: Matthew 5:44:
"But I say unto you.Love your enemies, bles them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you and persecute you."
