But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. 17
If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. Matthew 18:15-17 ESV
