My questions posted to Mr. Penny
Do Jehovah's Witnesses teach their members to shun ex-Jehovah Witness family members living outside the home? Do you support this practice?
How would your religion deal with a member who no longer believes in the events alleged by your organization to have happened in 1914?
Would your organization support divorcing a spouse if this member of your religion stated that he no longer believed Jehovah was leading the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses?

Mr. Pennyone's Response:
Hi Vander,
No one is disfellowshipped from among JW's unless they unrepentantly engage in or practices GROSS SIN. When that becomes evident the Bible tell Christians what to do. Read 1 Corinthians 5:1-5.
When that person had repented and cleaned up his life he was reinstated into the Christian congregation. --- 2 Corinthians 2:5-11. Is shunning a Christian thing to do? Read 1 Corinthians 5:11-13.
"How would your religion deal with a member who no longer believes in the events alleged by your organization to have happened in 1914?"
Find out why. And review the facts with such a one. Now if then this person becomes a divisive element in the congregation by promoting his views he can be disfellowshipped. --- Titus 3:10,11; 1 Timothy 1:19,20
"Would your organization support divorcing a spouse if this member of your religion stated that he no longer believed Jehovah was leading the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses?"
Jesus Christ said that the only Scriptural ground for divorce is adultery. Jehovah's Witnesses obey that rule. Read Matthew 19:3-12.
much Christian love
