2 | "Hand this man over to Satan" | Matt 18:17 | disciplerami | 73008 | ||
Greetings, The Apostle Paul is speaking of church discipline. He goes on to them to have nothing to do with this man or any 'so-called brother.' The second epistle to the Corinthians indicates that the church did disfellowsip the man [who had his father's wife] which caused the man to repent. "Sufficient for such a one is this punishment which was inflicted by the majority" (2 Cor. 2:6). Other passages that speak of the same thing: Matthew 18:15-18; 1 Timothy 1:19,20. My Bible's footnote says on this verse: "Paul had excluded these two men from the church, which was considered a sanctuary from Satan's power. Out in the world, away from the fellowship and care of the church, they would be 'taught' [the word means basically 'to discipline'] not to blaspheme." Titus says, "reject a factious man after a first and second warning, knowing that such a man is perverted and is sinning, being self-condemned" (3:10,11) Peter said to Simon who had just become a Christian, "you have no part or portion in this matter, for your heart is not right before God. Therefore repent of this wickedness of yours, and pray the Lord that, if possible, the intention of your heart may be forgiven you" (Acts 8:21,22). Good day. |
