The point I was trying to make is that we need to make sure that they don't want to be saved or are not willing to work toward being saved before we lock their doors. If they do want to be saved & need help I think it is our duty to do what we can for them.
I could not agree more on helping a Lodge in arrears or in any distress for that matter but do they not have a responsibility to ask for that help if they have not already received it?
When I am working on my car and need help, my Uncle does not call me to check if I need help I have to call him and ask for that help. I know this is a stretch to compare to age old Masonic lodges and their demisel but is the principle not the same?
