Typical, they must have another book to go by because my wife got the same treatment.
Now, regarding my appeal. Page 147 of the OD book lays out the foundation regarding these matters, in Jesus’ statement found at Matt. 18:15-17. It states I must be contacted with the complaint. I was never contacted. That was the above-mentioned sister’s responsibility.
Yeah, the elders showed up one day making accusations about what a sister said my wife was doing.
My wife was doing research in the other books mentioned in the bible. (Jasher, Enoch, and others) The elders said it was apostate to be researhing the bible without the WT guidance.
She was DFed.
But thats ok, they don't come by and bother us anymore. And that's the way we like it .
I understand that perhaps, in my emotional frustration, when I was informed by Elder 1 and Elder 2(PO) that I was going to be disfellowshipped, I may have said things that would cause them personal discomfort, I truly hope that they can find it in their hearts, personally to forgive me, and that they will contunue to be the fine shepherds they are, continuing in their “spirit of mildness.” Gal. 6:1
I added this part, because the last thing I said, was that I was going to sue them for defamation of character. When I wrote the last bit, I threw up a bit in my mouth.
