Yes Dan, I brought this to the attention of the GB in my last letter. I even quoted from their publication about this man been reinstated shortly thereafter. I also quoted 2Cor.2:6, "This rebuke given by the MAJORITY is sufficent for such a man, so that...you should kindly forgive and comfort him..." It was the 'majority' of the congregation that expelled him and it was the majority that would reinstate him! What about the incident with Paul & King Agrippa at Acts chapter twenty-six? I mean, what did King Agrippa know about "doing works that befit repentance?" Paul was speaking to an unbeliever not to a body of fellow Christians about the criteria of reinstating a disfellowshipped person! What the hell did King Agrippa know about disfellowshipping? The Society has used this scripture as a measuring stick to reinstate disfellowshiped persons, you'll never find what Paul said to Agrippa to the Christian congregations. My last letter was over 20 pages in length and I never got an answer, even a comforting word. I got expelled for what an elder thought about me. In other words, a mind reading elder knew me better than I know myself. The end result from his personal viewpoint sent lights flashing in my head. The game was over for me. It was a blessing in disguise.My question in asking is, is there an evil controlling element behind this policy? How many friends got expelled for no scriptural reasons whatsoever? OK, enough air talk.Guest 77
