BIBLICAL SEPARATION AND FELLOWSHIP

Freely adapted from John R. Rice & Robert L. Sumner (see Biblical Evangelist link)

I. Fellowship freely with Christians that live by the Word (Ps. 119:63, Eph. 6:23-23)

II. Fellowship carefully with "weak" Christians (Rm. 14:1-8)

III. Do not fellowship with Christians living in outrageous sin (Rm. 13:8-14, I Cor. 5:11-13, Mt. 18:17, Gal. 6:1) [The object being restoration]

IV. Do not "fellowship" with modernists, cultists, and the lost (II Cor. 6:14-18, II Jn. 7-11, I Cor. 5:9-10) [Obviously we can witness to the lost but that is not fellowship.]
