Jesus has found a potentially terminal condition in His Church. He has the cure in His hands, and no matter how painful or unpleasant the treatment plan is, the worst thing He can do when He finds sin in His Church is to do nothing. Do you want to go to the doctor with a potentially lethal condition and hear Him say, “You’re good to go. Keep doing what you’re doing”? That’s not Grace. That’s not love.
Some say the standard God demands from His church is unrealistic. Some say His chastening work in our lives is the cruel act of an intolerant God. Sometimes the pain of the shock to our heart or the cutting away of some sin in our lives makes us think God doesn’t love us. But only a God of love could look at the state His bought-and-paid-for people had gotten themselves into and go to whatever lengths it takes to bring them back to health.
