spiritual upbuilding..... have you entered into gods rest?

(heb 4:10, 11) all were encouraged to cease dead works (heb 6:1).

self-evaluation: ...ask yourself how you would react to counsel regarding personal lifestyle?

You know something, you guys are right, I read the context of this completely wrong!!! I looked at the extreme as not to take shunning to the extreme, when its actually the opposite. So they're saying if its necessary to take care of family business, so be it. However, not to associate with DFd or DAd family more than absolutely necessary. They kill me with the "incentive" part. Its nothing short of emotional extortion, and the estrangement of what would be formerly close relatives. Its dispicable.

Thats exactly what i see, and I believe the letter focusing on the word, "Brazen" quite possibly could be associated with this latest developement. Ironic that this is happening right after Jaracz died.

Spiritual Upbuilding….
“Have you entered into God’s rest?” (Heb 4:10, 11) All were encouraged to cease ‘dead works’ (Heb 6:1)
Self-evaluation: …Ask yourself how you would react to counsel regarding personal lifestyle? What if the scriptural counsel differs from personal opinion? Will you be obedient in molding?
Example: An adult child who lives outside of the household is DFd? While the term ‘Necessary family business’ is a term familiar with those in this circumstance; the GB wants to stress there is no need to push this to the extreme! ….Basically to shorten the example and to get to the heart of the matter….. there must be incentive for the DFd person to want to return. Parents are encouraged to give a little but to leave the DFd child desiring for more while promoting their actions as motivate by their love for Jah. The end result is hope that the DFd child in wanting full access to the abundant love of his parents willl also begin to see his losses in not having a relationship with Jehovah and seek reinstatement.
Now this is interesting........

i am against the use of the term "pedophile" as it is used within the ex-jw community.

the definition of pedophilia by merriam-webster is:.

sexual perversion in which children are the preferred sexual object .

No disrespect to anyone in this thread or elsewhere, but is it possible you guys are looking too far into this? What difference does it make if you label these folks as Chesters, Pedophiles, Rapos, or Sexual Predators?
