Josh 7-8 Ps 69 1 Cor 5

The body of believers must remain clean before the Lord. There are many examples in both the Old Testament and New Testament where heavy judgement is brought to bear to maintain the health and holiness of the body. Sin is not to be tolerated, it is to be expunged from the body and made an example of. This is an aspect of godly fear which is uncomfortable but necessary. Believers must be wholehearted in regard to dealing with sin. There is no other way to stand righteously before the Lord.
