"Baptist"

Well just this morning I was excited to learn that there is a very good Primitive Baptist Church in Winter Garden FL, where my son is moving.....I might be encouraged to move there too.

You do know that when s church refuses to discpline within its own ranks, would be disobeying Lord jesus, and would in sin!

 

aCCORDING TO WHOM

 

You're welcome to run your church any way you want, but I see nothing especially Biblical in this. The only time the doors were shut in the NT it was 'for fear of the Jews' (John 20:19 and presumably Acts 12:12-16).

Church discipline is a necessity, but so is restoration. Compare 1 Corinthians 5:4-5 with 2 Corinthians 2:6-11.

 

Both Jesus and Paul!

 

Yes, as the real purpose in the discipline would be to affect the retoration of the sinning Christian!
And never heard of the church asking folks to leave them during the service either...

 

Show me scripture

 

Because Joe Biden supports abortion, the Bishop of Scranton barred him from the sacraments

I don’t see the former VP of the USA getting aggravated by it.

 

Matthew 18:15/1 Corinthians 5:1

 

Probably not even saved, so shoudln't take it anyways!

 

Were is the punishment?

 

Kicked out.ex commuinicated, shunned by fellow Christians untill, they repend and get restored!

 

Come on... a person could go to another church then w/o regard to the prior church. That punishment has no teeth... or perhaps you don’t even care. It really doesn’t matter... it only matters that Christ forgives you. It’s exactly Christ’s and Johnny Dunk Them’s point, Matthew 3:16, “Grace” cannot be manufactured from beneath; it always comes from beyond, from no certain place, otherwise it isn’t grace. Really, you are not going to change a guy just by pressuring him or throwing the guy outa a church. It is the Holy Spirit that changes him and funny but it usually comes during a time your deep into your sins.

What you should do is go to a couple of AA meetings... the speaker meetings specifically and observe. In these meetings, alcoholics are asked to give their testimonies, oh and some of them are God awful. You wonder why they inflicted such pain on themselves and others. Then they will tell you that they had to admit that they were sick in sin and need their Higher Power to intervene... I think that’s their 1st step to recovery.

 

You shouldn’t judge that cause you don’t know that.

 

Soi if a married man, say the Pastor, was caught in adultery, and refused to repent and forsake the sinning, you would just smile and say the grace of God covers your sins?

 

I said probably....

 

That is between him and his wife. What did Christ do to the adulterous women? I’d also not take any instruction from him about family and marriage. Didn’t you say with regards to Trump not to judge?

 

God saves your soul, not your body or the flesh.

Which is a good reason to have a good diet of prayer, reading the scripture and church attendance.

Otherwise the flesh is weak......
