I am interested in knowing where Paul got the "judge those inside the church" notion. Jesus' most famous dictum on the subject is general and all-encompassing, "Judge not, that ye be not judged" (to cite the original 1611 autograph). This statement of Paul's is surely responsible for fueling much of the hair-splitting purity-driven sectarian schismaticism that so many Baptists have gone in for over the centuries.
