“Turn off the news” and listen to Paul…9-11.
Titus was to cut off the church’s relationship with any person who would not submit to correction after two warnings. Sinning indicates that the man will not change his ways and thus continues to rebel against God.
Titus 3:9-11
9 But avoid foolish disputes, genealogies, contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and useless. 10 Reject a divisive man after the first and second admonition, 11 knowing that such a person is warped and sinning, being self-condemned.
The New King James Version.
4 nor give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than godly edification which is in faith.
1 Timothy 1:4
23 But avoid foolish and ignorant disputes, knowing that they generate strife.
2 Timothy 2:23
17 And if he refuses to hear them, tell it to the church. But if he refuses even to hear the church, let him be to you like a heathen and a tax collector.
Matthew 18:17
