Matthew 18:20
For where two or three gather in my name, I am there among them.
Similarly, I tell you, if two of you agree on anything you ask for, it will be granted to you by my heavenly Father.
I say to you: whatever you bind on earth, heaven will also bind; and whatever you unbind on earth, heaven will also unbind.
And if he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the gathered Church. But if he does not listen to the Church, then consider him a pagan or a tax collector.
If he doesn’t listen to you, bring one or two others with you, so that the matter can be decided based on the evidence of two or three witnesses.
On Forgiveness If your brother has sinned against you, go and confront him privately, and if he listens to you, you have restored your brother.
The same applies to your Father in heaven. Your Father in heaven does not want even one of these little ones to perish.
And I tell you, when he finally finds it, he is more pleased about it than about the ninety-nine that did not go astray.
What do you think of this? If someone has a hundred sheep and one strays, won’t he leave the ninety-nine on the hillside and go to look for the stray one?
