Perhaps because she should at least have been disfellowshipped and shunned.

Do Other Sheep have Eternal Life Now?
by Vanderhoven7 inone of the benefits of justification is eternal life for believers.
i found an interesting passage from the wt, june 15, 1974 which reads:.
"it is to the spirit anointed christians who will rule in that kingdom that most of the christian-greek scriptures is directed, including the promise of everlasting life.

Good point Bobcat. The living anointed then never had immortality. In fact they could be replaced if they apostatized. Only those anointed raised in 1918 and all subsequently who died faithful were raised to imortal heavenly life.
But as for the "Other Sheep" class, eternal life is only rewarded at the close of the millennium through ongoing work and obedience it appears.

Found this article in the on-line WT library about working hard for the reward of eternal life.
Para 19 especially is enlightening

Menrov and Joen...Yes, it looks like some the other sheep will survive Armageddon while others who die before that event will be raised to prove themselves, along with the survivors, worthy of eternal life by remaining faithful during the entire Millennium.
No guarantees till the 1000 years are completed.

Does that mean that the other sheep cannot claim to have the gift of eternal life?
Do you know of other passages in WT literature that address this issue?

Hey Waton
Good question.
If it's about organizational policies of enforcement, then won't the courts have to force a rewrite of the secret Shepherd the flock book?
What will happen to separation of church and state. Next certain scriptures may be banned from being read in public. I'm sure Muslims will be watching this can of worms with interest.

I can't imagine the courts deciding that people must say hello to people who say hello to them. How can a court legislate loving behavior or enforce, "Do unto your family members what they want done to them". You might as well add, adults must accept blood transfusions whether they want them or not if family members complain. I can't see what the legislation against shunning would look like. Any ideas?

The Power Of Unconditional Love
by 1234 inthe most powerful love in the universe is unconditional love.. a love that has no requirements or conditions.
no actions are necessary to receive it.. this love is all around us and can be easily seen.

Personally, I think this case is doomed to fail.
Members will claim that they shun of their own free will. The Organization will say JWs are complying with scripture, not with their directions. Besides, who has the right to tell members they cannot ignore someone or insist that they at least say a greeting to people they do not wish to greet. Ex-members can not force friends and family to love them in the ways that they wish.
Case closed (IMHO)
