St. Mary Magdalene, Tiziano Vecellio, 1530

Jesus said to them, “Truly, I say to you, the tax collectors and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you. For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the harlots believed him; and even when you saw it, you did not afterward repent and believe him. Matthew 21:31-32

If another member of the church sins against you, go and point out the fault when the two of you are alone. If the member listens to you, you have regained that one.
