1994 - San Luis Obispo Brothers Reprimand David



"Keep constantly obeying your rulers, and constantly be submitting to them; for they themselves are constantly keeping watch over your souls, knowing that they are to give account, that they may do this with joy, not with lamentation, for this would be profitless to you." (Wuest Expanded Translation)

Dear David,

The above verse tells us that the leadership of the flock is responsible for the flock and for each other.  Your recent sin has made it necessary for us to call you to account.  Your sin cannot continue.  We believe your repentance to be real and sincere.  We do not expect any recurrence but if you should stumble in this way again we hold you accountable to tell us and it will be necessary to give specific discipline.

Our prayers and support are yours. The Lord bless you.
