While Jesus Christ was full of both grace and truth, most people tend to lean toward one or the other. To walk like Jesus did, we have to know when to call people back to the truth and when to extend grace, and we must do that in the manner that God does: with tolerance, often called “forbearance.” Our lives should demonstrate a balance of truth, grace and tolerance.
