These verses come to mind:2 Timothy 4:2 NKJVPreach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.Titus 1:13 NKJVThis testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,Hebrews 12:5-6 NKJVAnd you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: "My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD, Nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him; [6] For whom the LORD loves He chastens, And scourges every son whom He receives."Jesus said:Matthew 9:12-13 NKJVWhen Jesus heard that, He said to them, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. [13] But go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice.' For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance."
