Apostacy (by watchtower standards) is tantamount to sinning against the holy spirit which is "the unforgiveable sin" so yessiree bob, we are all headed for the firey lake of gehenna where we shall be doin' the backstroke with satan and his posse!! Whoo-hoo!!!!
p.s. I hear Lake Gehenna is really nice this time of year !!
Firstly I did not find the word "unforgivable" in the index of my New World Translation
Secondly the known scriptures refering to some sins not forgiven are directed to the spirit anointed are they not?
Well, it seems to me then that maybe only spirit anointed can commit such a sin. Those of us not so favored are exempt from such a disastrous judgement.
Do they reinstate those who formerly spoke bad of their organization?
Just wondering.
This may indicate whether they feel apostacy against their org is forgivable by the sheep class.
Secondly the known scriptures refering to some sins not forgiven are directed to the spirit anointed are they not?
Oh Yes!
Phew
I thought blasphemy was essentially taking something holy and defiling or debasing it.... Such as taking the being of the Holy Spirit and making him into nothing more than the electricity like power from God...who's commiting the unforgiveable sin?
Let me answer your question with a question:
Who do you think has a better chance of not getting disfellowshipped? Someone who goes to the elders and admits they have spent time on the internet downloading child pornography? Or someone who goes to the elders and admits they have spent time on the internet posting opposing views on Jehovah's Witness Discussion Forum?
I think we all know the answer to that one!
