God forgives and restores people.

2Co 2:1  But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in heaviness. 2Co 2:2  For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me? 2Co 2:3  And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all. 2Co 2:4  For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you. Forgive the Sinner 2Co 2:5  But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all. 2Co 2:6  Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many. 2Co 2:7  So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. 2Co 2:8  Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him. 2Co 2:9  For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things. 2Co 2:10  To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ;
