Pt 21: Shun False Brethren

“…not to company…”, today few can identify what sin is let alone be willing to shun the man who claims to be a brother doing evil. The Church is charged to “put away from among yourselves that wicked person”. Paul here testifying that the individual who ‘calls himself a brother’ (1 Cor 5:11), is false, indeed a “wicked person” (v13). Our Church has seen much of this in the last two years, the Pastor has witnessed much more. Most tragic of all is that which comes from what was believed to be a faithful man, a man who betrays the Character of Christ, not in open sin, but in judgement, hypocrisy and wilful ignorance. The Laodicean Church will continue to develop until the return of the Lord, for it will not call sin and sin, and it will not deal with sinners nor have any respect for those who do. Those who justify evil condemn that which is good. Shun false brethren, be not caught up in their sin (see Numbers 16)
