1 | Is it bibical for a church to require? | John 8:7 | Searcher56 | 224319 | ||
God's day to you, justme, You cited several verses ... but I don't see removing ones name from membership for sexual immorality You cited 1 Corinthians 5:9 ... but verse 11 clarifies "But actually, I wrote to you not to associate with any so-called brother if he is an immoral person, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler--not even to eat with such a one." ... there is no sexual immorality in this verse. You 1 Corinthians 6:12-20 ... but it is marrying a prositute. There is no mention of removing ones name from membership. Hebrews 13:4 is about sexual immorality. There is no mention of removing ones name from membership. See my note to dka. Searcher |

Searcher: I read your response. We must agree to disagree. Are there any circumstances where you see a member should removed from the church until the person repents and seeks forgiveness? justme |

Scipture ... Deu 17:2-7 (vs 6), 19:15-21 (vs 15); Mat 18:15-20 (vv 16, 20); 2Co 13:1-3 (vs 1); 1Ti 5:19; Heb 10:28 ... God's day to you, justme, Only when a brother offends me and he refuses to listen (Mat 18:15-17). I don't think it is any offense, based on the above Scripture. Plus, the context of the previous verses indicate this may be causing a child to stumble. The rest of the chapter is about forgiving. The above Scripture says two or three gathered (witnesses) all about judgment. We misapply this. The Lord is there also misapplied. He is there in judgment (Deu 19:17, Mat 18:20). Searcher |
