Confronting A Brother Who Sins Against You

14 Just so it is not the will of my Father in heaven that a single one of these little ones be lost. 15  "Again, if your brother wrongs you, go and while alone with him show him the wrong. If he listens to you, you have won back your brother. 16 But if he does not listen to you, take along with you one or two others, so as to have every word confirmed by the testimony of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, report it to the church.
