"m&m’s"â® Colorful Sugar Cookie Cutouts

The Purposes of Church Discipline: 1. To bring glory to God and enhance the testimony of the flock. 2. To restore, heal, and build up sinning believers (Matt. 18:15; 2 Thes. 3:14-15; Heb. 12:10-13; Gal. 6:1-2; Jam. 5:20). 3. To produce a healthy faith, one sound in doctrine (Tit. 1:13; 1 Tim. 1:19-20). 4. To win a soul to Christ, if the sinning person is only a professing Christian (2 Tim. 2:24-26). 5. To silence false teachers and their influence in the church (Tit. 1:10-11). 6. To set an example for the rest of the body and promote godly fear (1 Tim. 5:20). 7. To protect the church against the destructive consequences that occur when churches fail to carry out church discipline.
