Because we have been erroneously taught by omission and false teachings, this is no longer taught nor tolerated in today's church:
1 Cor. 5:1 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that does not occur even among pagans: A man has his father's wife. 2 And you are proud! Shouldn't you rather have been filled with grief and have put out of your fellowship the man who did this? 3 Even though I am not physically present, I am with you in spirit. And I have already passed judgment on the one who did this, just as if I were present. 4 When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, 5 hand this man over to Satan, so that the sinful nature may be destroyed and his spirit saved on the day of the Lord. 6 Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast works through the whole batch of dough?
7 Get rid of the old yeast that you may be a new batch without yeast--as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. 8 Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old yeast, the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with bread without yeast, the bread of sincerity and truth.
9 I have written you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people-- 10 not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. 11 But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat. 12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 God will judge those outside. "Expel the wicked man from among you."
Something to think about.

Now, how on earth can you reconcile the above with the "judge not, lest you be judged" mindset and erroneous teachings?
You can't, because the above is constantly used "out of context".

Suzanne,
Thank-you for the message. It seems to me that when people tell me specifically, "Judge not, least you be judged," they are trying to shut me up. But intentional sins of the flesh can do much harm inside of the church. Isn't it our job to point out these sins to other people so they not fall into a trap? As Christians we are never to judge the actions of a non-believer but it is scriptural to point out the sins in the Body of Christ.
Gods Blessings,
Al
Oops, claws are showing. I never used this to shut you up. You apparently are ignoring me but now it's obvious you are not. You don't have to post on everything, Al. You just can CHILL, relax and enjoy the day! No attacking, just observing... and learning. It's okay to do this, no?

It seems that it has been forgotten or maybe, never known what a christian is supposed to do and act like. Christ is the example of achievement. But I see no one even wanting to talk about moving in that direction. Do they think that they can remain in the sin and give mouth service to God for salvation? If so there is a very tragic awakening coming up over the horizon. But all we can do is tell them to wake up.
Personally, if I had gotten caught up in some willful sin and my Christian brothers and sisters knew of it, and said nothing to me, I would think that they did not care for me or my family's well-being. If nothing else, we should love one another enough to "speak the truth in love", Eph. 4:15.
