When someone sins against you, first go to them privately to point out their fault. If they listen and repent, you have reconciled with them. But if they do not listen, take one or two others to confirm what you say. If they still refuse to listen, bring the matter to the church. If the church also cannot reconcile the situation, treat the person as an unbeliever. The goal is to rebuke and reconcile, but to do so respectfully and through the proper channels.

MATT 18:15-17 If another believer sins against you, go privately and point out his fault. If the other person listens and confesses it, you have won that person back.
