Note 9 at Gal. 4:16: Paul is now saying, "Does telling you the truth offend you and make me your enemy?" The truth isn't always welcomed, but it truly is love to tell a person the truth regardless of whether he welcomes it or not (Lev. 19:17).

If a bridge had washed out on a dark, rainy night, would it be love to flag down other cars and stop them from driving to their death? Sure it would. But at first some of those drivers might not welcome your attempts to stop them. They might think you were trying to harm them or rob them. But if you truly loved others more than yourself, you would stop them regardless of what they thought.

Likewise, those who don't know the Lord may misinterpret our attempts of sharing the gospel with them, but if we truly love others more than ourselves, we will persist despite their objections.
