    How many errors is ok ?

    A heretic only gets 2 admonitions, that seems like error is unexceptionable.

    Bonami. Heresy is the promotion of doctrine or teaching that is variance to the accepted understanding of God's Word. If allowed to continue, the Church (believers) will become confused, fall into sin, & eventually start believing lies. One can see the condition of the Church today with the plethora of false teaching. I think 'two admonitions' to an heretic is more than sufficient to dismiss such a perpetrator & testify against him. If he should repent & see the error of his ways, he should be welcomed back into fellowship; Galatians 6:1; James 5:19,20.

    I did not find Heretic in the Bible, I don't remember reading it in other translations. I looked it up & it seems to be a word associated with a religious word for someone that doesn't believe the Biblical text. Not exactly sure?



    I will try answering your question best as I can through scripture:

    1 John 1:9

    Matthew 6:14

    James 1:5

    Hopefully these scriptures are helpful.

    T. Levis. In the KJV, heretic is spelled as 'heretik' (as in Titus 3:10).

    Oops, got that wrong, didn't I! Should be 'heretick' in Titus 3:10.
