.
1Tim 5:20 . .Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.
Once it's discovered that an accuser's allegations are libelous, then it's time
to get up in front of the entire congregation and expose him for the cheap
goods he really is because nobody's reputation is safe in the hands of
someone like that. This is where the testimony of the aforementioned two or
three witnesses comes into play.
"I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself
a brother but is a slanderer. With such a man do not even eat. Expel the
wicked man from among you." (1Cor 5:11-13)
A roast of this nature can be a very humiliating experience for a church
member, and when the others see how it goes, they'll think twice before
making spurious allegations against aldermen.
However, if the accusations prove to be true, then the shoe is on the other
foot. Then it's time to expose the elder.
