John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Admonish him as a brother — Tell him lovingly of the reason why you shun him.

2 Thessalonians 3:15

(14) We must avoid familiarity with the one who has been excommunicated in such a way, that we diligently seek every occasion and means that may be, to bring them again into the right way.
