Speaking to believers – “My brothers”
Speaking to the community of faith – “if anyone among you”
“wanders” – Greek word we get “planet” from
“truth” – something people did
The Responsibility of Converting vv.19b-20
Not just the elders, but the entire membership
Exhortation – Hebrews 3:13; 10:24
The lamb that strays gains a new name – victim (1 Pet. 5:8)

And the one doing the restoring receives no credit. To God alone be the glory!
