3:14 What is the purpose of disfellowshipping Christians?
Christians who are blatantly sinning against God's word are to be disfellowshipped by the church in order to hopefully produce shame that will lead to repentance, so that fellowship can be restored (CP Mt 18:15-17; 1Cor 5:1-13).
Once a person repents they must be forgiven and restored to fellowship (CP Lu 15:11-24; 17:3-4; 2Cor 2:6-8; Eph 4:32).
