Tozer for Tuesday

We must contend but not be contentious. We must preserve truth but injure no man. We must destroy error but not harm people. Some men were wrong in earlier days; they contended and, in contending, they became contentious. Trying to preserve truth, they destroyed those who held error. This is wrong. Let us preserve truth but injure no man.—A.W. Tozer, Living as a Christian, 219

We would do well to heed this advice! "Let us injure no man [person, in updated language]" is good—and Christian—advice.
