“If You See Something, Say Something” is a national campaign that raises public awareness of the signs of suspicious behavior. It’s a reminder of the biblical edict as well; if you see something untoward in the words or action of a believer, then you’re supposed to say something. Matthew 18:15-17 outlines a step-by-step process for handling correction. It commands directly confronting the offender privately, then involving witnesses if needed, reporting to the church, and finally treating unrepentant individuals as unbelievers. Correction isn’t condemnation; it’s direction. See and say.
