Question 25: Did the apostles ever forbid administering the necessary spiritual or physical services of love to a banned person?
Answer: The apostles have never forbidden the administering of the necessary spiritual or physical services to a banned sinner. Rather, the banned person should be called to repentance; if he does not listen or accept it, then one is at liberty. It is the same with physical things - if there is an abundance of goods and the banned person is in need, he should be shared with as necessary.
