Has anyone out there ever wonder who gave the organization the power to shun. Oh I KNOW YOU WOULD SAY it comes from the bible. But I suggest to you, it comes from their members it is really you. As a former elder, I know for a fact that there are members who have been DF for no good scriptural reason, in fact no good reason at all, except that elders had the power. Even if there was a reason, WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO LOVE YOUR NEAGHBOR? OR TURN THE OTHER CHEEK? the real fact is shunning goes on because you except it, you allow it. What would happen if you all would just SAY NO to shunning. If you want to help your families or brothers and sister, how about showing LOVE you would be surprised how powerful that is.
Shunning is destroying your families, is that what; god had in mind for you? it is also destroying your congregations. TAKE A MOMENT AND THINK What would happen if all of you said NO TO SHUNNING the policy would change, your families would be stronger your congregation would put emphases on love not punishment. Whats the organization going to do DF all you. I think not, there would be no Organization. So my brothers and sisters START THINKING ON YOUR OWN TAKE BACK your power, it came from god. Make your own choices concerning your families. There should be nothing that would get between you and your families members. FAMILIES ARE MORE SACRED THAN A ORGANIZATION. What are you afraid of? The fear is in your mind, they can only hurt you what you allow them to do. Chop the head off the snake so you & your families can live with out fear of loosing each other.
