treat him as you would a pagan or a tax collector." (Matthew 18:15-17)

It should be noted that Jesus didn't hate pagans or tax collectors, it just means treat them as one outside the church -- invite them to repent of their sins, accept Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, and enter into the joy of His Eternal Kingdom. I wish there was a little more of that in our church, Dave.
