And that is you trying to have it both ways.That is just you trying to sweep the sins that come under verse 1 cor 5:11 under the carpet. Those sinners were to be removed, not even associated with. The sins I point out prove your institution is not the good tree. Yes I can do that if all have sinned. Your leaders are meant to be saved, baptised, confirmed etc. Jesus only came for sinners. It is you who is making a contradiction because you DO NOT UNDERSTAND before salvation and after. You do not understand some sinners are to be removed and if those sins are committed by leaders then they are false teachers, wolves. In fact, your institution haboured pedators. You also ignore the verse about exposing sin and that is no surprise at all.
Really the whole northern kingdom ceased to exist. They were removed as your leaders who sinned should have been according to 1 Cor 5:11.
Your church, whatever it is, if even one member, is full of sins. No good tree there or anywhere, then. Now what?
