P. 6

“Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual

        restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you

                                             also be tempted.” (Galatians 6:1)



                                        Discipline is necessary for the unity and
                                        the purity of the Church. It must always

                                        be based on the Biblical instructions in

                                        Matthew 18:15-20 and Galatians 6:1-2.

                                        Take a redemptive attitude towards the

                                        person being disciplined:





                     Show love for the individual,                                         Show love for the Church, because
                     because that will help him or her                                     that protects her from the danger
                     recognize wrongdoing and with it                                      of false doctrine or wrong

                     the need for repentance.                                              practices.







                     Show love for the world, because                                      Show love for Christ, because that
                     that projects a witness that more                                     faithfully shows His character and
                     accurately displays the

                     transforming power of the gospel.                                     safeguards His reputation.
