Have you confronted someone and told them their wrongs? How did they react? Naturally, people will be dissapointed and hurt if you tell them the truth about their bad behaviors. A true family and friend will always point out what is wrong with your attitude and will never tolerate it. Real people who loves youbare concerned with you and they want the best for you.
Its hard to know that we commites sin and it is pointed out by others. Jesus Christ message to His disciples, clearly pointing out to tell the faults of your brothers and sisters in private.
“If your brother or sister sins, go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over. But if they will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’ If they still refuse to listen, tell it to the church; and if they refuse to listen even to the church, treat them as you would a pagan or a tax collector.
Matthew 18:15-17 NIV

Jesus reminded us to always be honest and tell our loved ones if they are wrong so they can correct it and live with a Christ-like attitude. It takes courage to tell the truth so that others may wake up from the bed of sin roses. If we truly walk with God, we shall share the gospel to our loved ones and teach them the rightheous way of Christian living.
