Galatians 6:2

Bear and Share the Burdens

1 Brethren, if a man is¹ overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of ^agentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.

2 ^aBear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill ^bthe law of Christ.

3 For ^aif anyone thinks himself to be something, when ^bhe is nothing, he deceives himself.

4 But ^alet each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and ^bnot in another.

5 For ^aeach one shall bear his own load.

Notice that Paul does not instruct us to fall on them like a ton of bricks. He says to restore them with "gentleness," considering our own state, and bearing with them.
