On the Theology of Communion and Separation

by Joe Colletti 

The 20th and 21st Century Church has entered a new age of Church splits and separations. Separation and schism have been with the Church since the beginning and nearly every party acknowledges that schism (however they define that term) is sinful. On this point the Bible is clear. Yet on the other hand the Bible also commands separations from certain groups of evildoers. (Eph. 5:11, 2 Cor. 6:14-15) How do we reconcile these two commands?
