if he will not hear them: tell the church. And if he will not hear the church, let him be to thee as the heathen and publican. (Mt 18:17)
You are completely out of context...And, the verse you cite has nothing to do with the topic being discussed...
Besides, the 'church' referred to is the body of born again believers...Not the 'rulers' at your church...Completely different church altogether...
the 'church' referred to is the body of born again believers
This is the Protestant spin; it clearly is not in the context of Matthew 18 because the body of believers is referenced separately in the preceding verse.
