Copied from R2R's post:

1 Cor. 5:11-13
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.
What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to JUDGE THOSE INSIDE? God will judge those outside. "Expel the wicked man from among you".

1 Cor. 6:2-3
Do you not know that the saints will JUDGE THE WORLD? And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases? Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life!

1 John 4:1
Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but TEST the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

1 Timothy 5:20
Those who sin are to be REBUKED PUBLICLY, so that the others may take warning.

2 Timothy 4:2
Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; CORRECT, REBUKE and encourage-- with great patience and careful instruction.

Titus 1:13
This testimony is true. Therefore, REBUKE THEM SHARPLY, so that they will be sound in the faith.

Hebrews 12:5
"...My son, do not make light of the Lord's DISCIPLINE, and do not lose heart when he REBUKES you, because the Lord disciplines those he loves, and he punishes everyone he accepts as a son".

YOU MAKE A VERY GOOD POINT, THANKS FOR GIVING ALL THE SCRIPTURE TO BACK UP YOUR POINT. BUT YOU WILL NOTICE SOMETHING,

No where in those scriptures does it say to publicly embarass the offender, or gossip and spread the malicious talk publicly. Right? We are to judge for ourselves, and test the fruits for ourselves. We aren't to judge for others, we are not the ones to punish. That is God's job.
