Email from Jacob, a church leader in Dubai
Dear Brothers/Sisters,
Greetings!
I normally do not use an email thread to communicate and please consider this as a one off, to counter a recently floated letter. (dated 3rd November, 2019)
While each of you have the individual freedom to discern what is best in the circumstances, I would like us to take note of the letter recently sent to this particular group by an ex-member of the church. I am glad he has attached the original article for your reference. You have perhaps already realized that the excerpts of the article has been taken out of context and that betrays the 'understanding' the person has of the referred subject. That article is the personal experience and viewpoint of the author.
Selective grouping and writing such inflammatory letters is exactly why we had to take the ultimate steps of 'disfellowshipping' the brother. This is divisive in its least intention.
All I can encourage us, is to ignore the brother and his spewing and pray that sanity and peace will return in his heart. Please note that he stands disfellowshipped and please note that we have adhered to all the biblical principles, procedures and taken much advice to arrive at that collective decision.
Please feel free to write me personally if you need any further personal clarifications.
love and regards,
Jacob Kuruvilla
