Proverbs' paradoxical advice on rebuking a fool applies to confronting Word of Faith in-laws -- danger exists either way

20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 11) 00:56:41 – 00:59:13

Responding to Jackie Rock about whether to have a doctrinal confrontation with Word of Faith in-laws

Mike warns that Word of Faith leaders often respond to critique by 'demonizing' the critic -- attributing a 'spirit of rebellion' or 'spirit of skepticism.' He cites Proverbs' paradoxical back-to-back verses on rebuking a fool as illustrating that both engaging and not engaging carry real dangers. He recommends thoughtful, prayerful preparation: think about medium, timing, relationship-building, and what the person cares about.
