“If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house or give him any greeting, for whoever greets him takes part in his wicked works.”
If we encounter someone working against the truth, someone who has rejected the truth of who Jesus is (the very essence of the gospel), we need to avoid them. And if avoiding them is not a possibility, we will have to actively reject them.
If we so much as give them words of welcome or encouragement in the work that they are doing, we are taking part in the evil that they are doing. That is strong language. But if we are going to love as we ought, we are going to have to stand for the truth.
