People who form a church have all kinds of ideas about what it should be like. People looking for a church have all kinds of ideas about what it should be like. But the only thing that matters is what Jesus says a church should be like. And thankfully, Jesus never shied away from describing and demonstrating the kind of church he wants. This week we see that the kind of church Jesus wants warns its members who are getting trapped by sin. A church is like a group of siblings – brothers and sisters who are each other’s keepers. When we see one another falling into sin, we warn one another in love. We do this with the goal of leading our brother or sister to repentance and being able to point them to their forgiveness in Christ.
