1 Timothy 5:20-22

Amplified Bible

²⁰ As for those [elders] who continue in sin, reprimand them in the presence of all [the congregation], so that the rest will be warned. ²¹ I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of His chosen angels that you guard and keep these rules without bias, doing nothing out of favoritism. ²² Do not hurry to lay hands on anyone [ordaining and approving someone for ministry or an office in the church, or in reinstating expelled offenders], and thereby share in the sins of others; keep yourself free from sin.
