10 "No one hates his own body, but lovingly cares for it just as Christ cares for his body,(www.Sentencedict.com) which is the church" (Ephesians 5:29 LB).

11 Instead, follow Ephesians 4:15, which says, "Speak the truth in love." So the key to proper correction: Affirm the person; then correct the behavior.

12 Ephesians 4:2 - Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.
