Today we continue our study in 1 Corinthians with chapter 5 as Paul confronts the Corinthian church on their tolerant attitude toward blatant, unrepentant sin among them. The goal of our study is to recognize that sin is a corrupting influence and blatant sin in the church should be confronted and dealt with, sternly and compassionately. And Paul says that sometimes this means putting an unrepentant brother or sister out of the fellowship. Find out how church discipline is carried out Biblically.
