Hey guys.
I think today was my day this week, but I didn't write anything. Til now.
I think we can all follow Proverbs 5's advice from this morning. If not, then tell us and we'll cast you out from our midst:)
I really like the image of the "new lump" without any leaven. But I'd like to know what you think is leaven in the church. Obviously in light of the next few verses, Paul probably included willful, unrepentant sinners, but is that list of sins nonexclusive? When, in your opinion, does somebody cross the line from candidate for rehabilitation and grace to old leaven and now it's time to cast them out and let Satan deal with them? Because obviously the church is important and keeping the body healthy is important. We want a new lump.
Obey the Lord and have a peaceful, restful day.

First off, yet again, awesome how the two readings for the day work hand-in-hand. Beauty of God's Word.
ReplyDeleteSecond, I'm good with following Proverbs 5 cause the last thing I want to do is follow a honey-lip-dripper woman into hell.
To answer your question, I'm not sure where that line is. It's tough to cast too much judgement on where the line is for others because we generally are more generous with the line we draw for ourselves.
