    2 John 10 in context says......................

    8

    Look out for yourselves, that YOU do not lose the things we have worked to produce, but that YOU may obtain a full reward. 9 Everyone that pushes ahead and does not remain in the teaching of the Christ does not have God. He that does remain in this teaching is the one that has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to YOU and does not bring this teaching, never receive him into YOUR homes or say a greeting to him. 11 For he that says a greeting to him is a sharer in his wicked works.

    His teachings or the WTS teachings?

    Didn't Jesus say- the only two things he expects of is followers is to - Love God and Love your fellow man!

    IF you guys are talking about that 2002 KM. I am tired of it. Lets all agree it is intentionally worded to allow you to associate with your family normally, but heavyhandedly tries to make you feel guilty or abhorent for doing so. I call it the "must look reasonable before the divorce court judge" claus.

    Let the expelled one be to you ... as a tax ccollector"? Wasn't Jesus criticized by the Pharisees for hanging out with tax collectors?

    BINGO!! Jesus never told him followers to pointedly ignore ANYONE, in fact, as mentioned above, Jesus ATE with the tax collectors. So where do they get that Jesus was telling his followers to cut off family ties? Idiots......My assembly program was a bit more inspiring though.............

    I love in the Watchtower about DF'd persons it quotes a scripture then says "THIS MEANS" and they give specific instructions.

    Why not let the reader figure out what it means????

    How many times has your significant other said something to you, then you look at him/her in horror and they say "that's not what I meant, this is what I meant" ... I love the Watchtower gladly tells us what the Bible MEANS when they didn't even freaking write it.

    I also love they quote old Watchtower magazines as their references.

    Seriously, isn't the first rule of journalism to have outside sources and references to back up your story? You can't QUOTE YOURSELF, that isn't right.

    If I remember correctly. In all my reading of the bible nowhere does it tell about Jesus or the Apostles shunning someone. This is one of the main reasons I left. No one is going to tell me who I can and cannot associate with.

    The illustration was given that a brother could mistakenly say to a householder that 100 million people have died of Aids, when in reality it is about 35 million. If the householder is knowledgeable about the subject, or indeed, any subject the publishers brings up where he gets his information wrong, the householder will call into account other things publisher may have said.

    Yep...we would not want that to happen..best leave out where we got the info from and mark that call as a goat and a DNC.
