Hi, All:
In the initial post, I forgot to mention one of the most outstanding points I intended. This piece was inspired by the issue of shunning among members WITHIN the congregations, in which the shunned member has not been accused nor had any judicial action taken against them, as experienced by SilentLamb in his congregation, as well as others who become "marked". The Scripture speaks for itself:
"By this all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love among yourselves." NWT
What does that tell us?
