Pastor Gary Hamrick - Cornerstone Chapel - Biblical Tolerance - 1 Corinthians 5

10/20/2024
In today’s study from 1 Corinthians 5, Pastor Gary explains the rare, but sometimes necessary, need to exercise “church discipline”—the process by which church leadership confronts a person living in open, unrepentant sin, encourages the person to repent of that sin, but then removes the person from fellowship if he/she does not repent. And what if something like this is happening in your own home or extended family? How do you respond to those who are living in open, unrepentant sin but still expect you to just “love” and “accept” them rather than “judge” them. That’s the definition of “tolerance” in today’s culture. Listen or watch as Pastor Gary helps us to understand what true Biblical tolerance looks like.
