Sin in the church refers to the destructive impact that individual wrongdoing has on the entire body of believers, emphasizing communal responsibility and purity. Illustrations often depict how one member's sin can disrupt unity and weaken the church, as shown in biblical examples like Achan's sin affecting Israel (Joshua 7). This subject highlights the need for repentance and restoration within the fellowship (1 Corinthians 5).
Sin in one believer harms the whole church, shown by Achan's sin affecting Israel.
Sin separates from God and if not put away brings disaster not only upon the sinner but associates. Story of Achan illustrates oneness of the church in Christ (1 Cor. 5:1-7; 12:12, 14, 26). Whole cause may be injured by unspirituality of one believer
