"The pledge of the coming day, both for the waiting witnesses, and for the ungodly, who loved darkness because their deeds were evil: the earnest of the sovereignty of light over darkness, when the children of the day would be manifest, and shine as the stars for ever and ever (Daniel 12:3)." -- Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers
The tolerant church is setting itself up for the fall. When we refuse to discern within our own walls the result is the spreading of heresy like cancer. People will not only fall away but countless others will believe they have been saved when in fact they do not know Jesus at all. We are not to tolerate the scourge of false doctrine within the body. The Bible teaches us that it is the spreading of false doctrine that is the source of disunity in the body. Come out from among them beloved. Hear what the Spirit of the Lord is saying to the Church in Thyatira and to the church today. Let him who has an ear, hear. Amen and amen.
