Abstract

This article justifies and demonstrates that the church, and not only its members, is capable of sinning. It can thereby become a structure of sin and be called a sinful church. This is exemplified through the cases of the Roman Catholic Church's handling of sexual abuse and the Residential School System in Canada. This highlights that the churches, along with calling the world, societies, and all people to change where it is needed, should also be constantly self-examining and self-correcting.

罪恶的教会及其不断悔改的必要性

这篇文章证明并表明，教会，而不仅仅是其成员，是能够犯罪的。因此，教会可以成为罪恶的结构，被称为罪恶的教会。罗马天主教会处理性虐待和加拿大寄宿学校制度的案例就是例证。这突出表明，教会在呼吁世界、社会和所有人改变需要改变的地方的同时，也应该不断地自我检查和自我纠正。
