• Matthew 1815-17 Is Often Understood As
  Constituting An Exclusive Pattern For The Work Of
  Correction
• Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against
  thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and
  him alone if he shall hear thee, thou hast
  gained thy brother.
• But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee
  one or two more, that in the mouth of two or
  three witnesses every word may be established.
• And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it
  unto the church but if he neglect to hear the
  church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man
  and a publican.
