2 Corinthians 2:6

Sufficient to such a man [is] this punishment. The excommunication of the offender (1Co 5:4,5).

Which was [inflicted] of the many. Literally, by the majority. This shows that the whole church took action, and implies that there were dissenters. The command of Paul was endorsed by the action of the church. So ought the decision of the officers of a congregation always be submitted for approval.
