Judging inside the church

Post

1 Corinthians 5:9-13

9 I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people— 10 not at all meaning the sexually immoral of this world, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world. 11 But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who bears the name of brother if he is guilty of sexual immorality or greed, or is an idolater, reviler, drunkard, or swindler—not even to eat with such a one. 12 For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church[a] whom you are to judge? 13 God judges those outside. “Purge the evil person from among you.”


I found this rather interesting in my morning Bible reading, and thought we should discuss this. I especially find the statement a reviler is considered among these. The meaning is to: address or speak of abusively.
