Forgive the Sinner

2 Corinthians 2

5 And if any one hath caused sorrow, he hath not caused sorrow to me, but in part, that I may not burden you all; 6 sufficient to such a one is this punishment, that [is] by the more part, 7 so that, on the contrary, [it is] rather for you to forgive and to comfort, lest by over abundant sorrow such a one may be swallowed up; 8 wherefore, I call upon you to confirm love to him, 9 for, for this also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether in regard to all things ye are obedient. 10 And to whom ye forgive anything -- I also; for I also, if I have forgiven anything, to whom I have forgiven [it], because of you -- in the person of Christ -- [I forgive it,] 11 that we may not be over-reached by the Adversary, for of his devices we are not ignorant.
