What does "The disfellowshipping of xyz is now rescinded" mean

It has happened somewhere I know. What is it and what does it mean

Is it possible that's just an odd, local way of saying "XYZ has been reinstated as a Jehovah's Witness"?

The way your statement sounds ALMOST sounds as if they would be admitting making a mistake in DFing someone, and that seems highly unlikely.

No cant be a local way of saying, this I am certain of

cognitivedizzy

BTW this happens just 2 months into the DF announcement

annul, countermand, lift, overturn, repeal, reverse, revoke, vacate.

The meaning of the word rescind.

Its another way of saying we made a mistake when we DF him/her without actually saying it .

Thanks Smiddy3, I knew what it means , was wondering if this also every happened before any other thoughts on the borgs way of thinking

smiddy3

I didn`t mean to insinuate you didn`t know the meaning of the word rescind my friend ,however it took them 2 months to realise they had made a mistake ?

Obviously the Holy Spirit was not on those 3 Elders during the Judicial Committee meeting.

I wonder if it is an official watchtower phrase ?

The only way to get reinstated is repentance BUT very occasionally you can get their chucking you out overturned.

Who in their right mind would want that though?

But what if a DF persons accusers..2 witness rule....admit they were wrong..mistaken..lying ?
