In a Healthy Community, there is:

Restoration

 

1Brothers and sisters, if someone is overtaken in any wrongdoing, you who are spiritual, restore such a person with a gentle spirit,, watching out for yourselves so that you also won’t be tempted.
Galatians 6:1 (CSB)

 

5In fact, when we came to Macedonia, we had no rest. Instead, we were troubled in every way: conflicts on the outside and fears within. 6But God, who comforts the downcast, comforted us by the arrival of Titus.
2 Corinthians 7:5-6 (CSB)

 

2Carry one another’s burdens; in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
Galatians 6:2 (CSB)


2. Responsibility

 

3For if anyone considers himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
Galatians 6:3 (CSB)

 

4Let each person examine his own work, and then he can take pride in himself alone, and not compare himself with someone else. 5For each person will have to carry his own load.
Galatians 6:4-5 (CSB)

 

26Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
Galatians 5:26 (CSB)

 

15But if you bite and devour one another, watch out, or you will be consumed by one another.
Galatians 5:15 (CSB)


3. Resources

 

1Now about the collection for the saints: Do the same as I instructed the Galatian churches.
1 Corinthians 16:1 (CSB)

 

9As it is written: He distributed freely; he gave to the poor; his righteousness endures forever., 10Now the one who provides seed for the sower and bread for food will also provide and multiply your seed and increase the harvest of your righteousness.
Galatians 6:9-10 (CSB)

 

17Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the profit, that is increasing to your account. 18But I have received everything in full, and I have an abundance. I am fully supplied, having received from Epaphroditus what you provided—a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. 19And my God will supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:17-19 (CSB)

 

6The point is this: The person who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and the person who sows generously will also reap generously. 7Each person should do as he has decided in his heart—not reluctantly or out of compulsion, since God loves a cheerful giver. 8And God is able to make every grace overflow to you, so that in every way, always having everything you need, you may excel in every good work. 9As it is written: He distributed freely; he gave to the poor; his righteousness endures forever., 10Now the one who provides seed for the sower and bread for food will also provide and multiply your seed and increase the harvest of your righteousness. 11You will be enriched in every way for all generosity, which produces thanksgiving to God through us. 12For the ministry of this service is not only supplying the needs of the saints but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God. 13Because of the proof provided by this ministry, they will glorify God for your obedient confession of the gospel of Christ, and for your generosity in sharing with them and with everyone. 14And as they pray on your behalf, they will have deep affection for you because of the surpassing grace of God in you. 15Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!
2 Corinthians 9:6-15 (CSB)

 

2Carry one another’s burdens; in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
Galatians 6:2 (CSB)
