I REALLY APPRECIATE "UNDERCOVER'S" COMMENT, WHEN I WAS TRYING TO GET REINSTATED 2 YEARS AGO, I WENT TO MOST OF THE MEETINGS FOR 3 YEARS, WENT TO THE CONVENTIONS, SPECIAL ASSEMBLY DAYS, ETC...AND THE 3 ELDRES WHO WERE IN CHARGE OF MY JUDICIAL COMMITTEE WERE THE 3 TOP DOGS, THEY WERE RELENTLESS WITH ME, THEY KEPT REFUSING TO REINSTATE ME, GIVING ME LAME EXCUSES LIKE, "YOUR NOT REPENTANT YET", "YOU NEED MORE TIME", ETC...FUNNY THING, ALOT OF THE PEOPLE IN THE CONGREGATION WERE GETTING UPSET THAT THEY WERE TREATING ME THIS WAY, MY WIFE WASNT DF'D SO SHE GOT WIND OF HOW RESTLESS THE CONG WAS GETTING, I EVEN WROTE TO THE TRAVELING OVERSEER ABOUT THESE 3 ELDERS WHO HATED ME, TO NO AVAIL! UNBELIEVEABLE HOW MUCH POWER 3 MEN CAN HAVE OVER A CONG! IM GLAD THIS HAPPENED AS IT OPENED MY EYES AND MY WIFES TOO! SHE DISASSIATED HERSELF LAST JANUARY AND WE ARE DOING GREAT!

Elder lost privilages due to 1 Timothy 3:1-7. Why?
by RULES & REGULATIONS in1 timothy 3:1-7 reads:.
if any man is reaching out for an office of overseer, he is desirous of a fine work.2the overseer should therefore be irreprehensible, a husband of one wife, moderate in habits, sound in mind, orderly, hospitable, qualified to teach,3not a drunken brawler, not a smiter, but reasonable, not belligerent, not a lover of money,4a man presiding over his own household in a fine manner, having children in subjection with all seriousness;5(if indeed any man does not know how to preside over his own household, how will he take care of gods congregation?
)6not a newly converted man, for fear that he might get puffed up [with pride] and fall into the judgment passed upon the devil.7moreover, he should also have a fine testimony from people on the outside, in order that he might not fall into reproach and a snare of the devil.. .
