Church discipline often gets a bad rap, but it is an important part of building a healthy church community. Jesus has called his church to exercise discipline in calling fellow believers to repentance when they are caught in unrepentant, verifiable, and significant sin. The Apostle Paul also issues the call to engage in church discipline. Church discipline is necessary because sin impacts the whole community. Church discipline is ultimately aimed at restoration. Church discipline displays the grace that is found in the Gospel. And church discipline guards against Satan's schemes.
