Ali continues our ‘Welcome to Church’ series (1 Cor 5). We see that the Corinthian church found itself in a society with very different values. Many in the church chose to tolerate values in the church that were sinful, whilst others chose to separate from society entirely, choosing only to judge them. We are reminded that message of Jesus was, instead, to permeate society - being salt and light implies ‘pure hearts and messy hands’.
