The other party in this case has completely cut me and my family off and in so many words told me I was disowned.


I hope I am not prying too much by asking a few questions. If I am please let me know.

From what you told me about this case, it was a result of you following all the steps of Matt. 18, is that correct?
In other words this person has been confronted after other steps by the local Church.
If so, this person probably goes to the same local Church as you (or did). Since it would be hard to take these steps for someone that goes to another local Church, or isn't a Church attendee.
Is this person still attending the same local Church, even after all these steps were taken? If so (depending on the circumstances) it would make it extremely difficult for all parties involved. It would also seem to me, that the local Church would be condoning this behavior and as such guilty of not disciplining. This will cause division in the local body.
