I have decided to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of his flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.What sin is worthy of expulsion from the body? Obviously sleeping with your stepmother qualifies, but what else does? Where is the threshold for a sin to be excommunicated? It feels like this is a mighty high bar, so are there "lower" sins that should also be treated this way?
Also, what is the requirement related to expulsion? If one sins something "terrible" (not that any sin is less serious than another), sincerely repents, but then later does the same thing again, is there a point where expulsion is called for? Or is it only to be practiced when the sin is not repented, regardless of "severity?"
