Hear thee; if he is reclaimed.
Gained thy brother; thou hast been instrumental in restoring him. The way to reclaim an offending brother is for some brother to go and converse with him alone. If this is not effectual, he is to take one or two more, and converse with him again. If that is not effectual, then it is their duty to communicate what has been done to the church. If, under their discipline, he will not reform, he is to be cut off.
