Gospel: Matthew 18:15-20
Jesus offers practical
advice to his disciples on how individuals--and the church as a
whole--should show wrongdoers their need for repentance.
15If another member of the church sins against you, go and point out the
fault when the two of you are alone. If the member listens to you, you
have regained that one. 16But if you are not listened to, take one or
two others along with you, so that every word may be confirmed by the
evidence of two or three witnesses. 17If the member refuses to listen to
them, tell it to the church; and if the offender refuses to listen even
to the church, let such a one be to you as a Gentile and a tax
collector. 18Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound
in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.
19Again, truly I tell you, if two of you agree on earth about anything
you ask, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. 20For where two
or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them."
