Episode 107: 1 Corinthians 5 - Godly Church Discipline
from Gospel Life Church - Cape Girardeau · host Gospel Life Church
What happens when a church confuses tolerance with grace? In this message from 1 Corinthians 5, Pastor Elliott Swoboda explores why church discipline is not cruel—but deeply loving. When sin goes unaddressed, the church’s witness, purity, and joy begin to erode. Drawing from Paul’s rebuke to the Corinthians and the words of Jesus Himself, this sermon reminds us that truth and grace are not enemies—they are brothers born of the same covenant. True love calls one another back from the fire, for the glory of God, the good of the sinner, and the health of Christ’s body.
