First question, where is Jesus in this article? Didn't Jesus refer to himself as a shepherd and his followers as dear sheep to him? Is this why jws see themselves as "JEHOVAH'S witnesses" rather than CHRISTIANS. In the NT, Christ's followers are mentioned as being Jesus' witnesses not jws.
Exactly, Act 1:8

Once again I will say how much I learn from all your posts. All of you have given me food for thought and points to share with jws.

Blondie, an honest question.....
How do you read all that dribble without puking?
I love your posts, but find that the bile starts to gurgle about halfway through. Keep up the good work, and I promise to try and keep my lunch off the floor.

Stealth, I take it in small doses and I am somewhat immunized by now. I remember that I might be helping just one person and I persevere. I can't take listening to audio versions though. That is definitely puke time.

Thanks, Stealth, but I have to protect my keyboard. Perhaps one of those clear plastic covers and a bucket close by.
The rank and file read these articles and get their hopes up; after all, the info is there, they can't understand why it is not being applied. It is always the "imperfection" card that is played. Why don't the elders use that card when dealing with the r&f?

Great research. I think that, before I care for others - as in the spirit of Jehovahs direction - I will first judge their commitment to the truth before I show any personal interest - as they may be bad , apostates who don't care for the love of Jehovahs and his governing body (our mother) It's modelled judgemental behaviour intended to keep each other knitted into the fabric of the cult , since you are strictly informed from beginning your association with the cult - " Bad associations spoil useful habits " and thoroughly discouraged form outside interests and associations.
I don't think false caring does any good. But Jesus did say his brothers are those " doing the will of my father " ......................
