* Boasters ignore danger, 6 * Leaven is dangerous, 7-8 (Mt.16:12) * Christians are also members of society, 9-10 * We must distinguish between sinners of the world and sinners in the church, We cannot w/draw from the world If a Christian won’t put his sins away, the church must put him away

III III 2 Th.3: Th.5: Th.3:6 Three descriptive words: w/draw … walk … disorderly (6, 7, 11) Four explanatory words (14): note (mark, take note of) do not obey… do not keep company that he may be ashamed
