Hi Undercover
Are you referring to what I posted? If so, I do have the Prince of Peace book and can scan and post tonight. I'm gone for the rest of the day or I would do it now.

Why would God give us a brain and then forbid us from using it, dummies? This lowers humans to the level of animals.
This level of control is about appropriate for a human trying to maintain a house full of dogs--and, in fact it is necessary for the humans to maintain firm control of their animals like this. This is because animals cannot think ahead, and do not realize that this kind of control means the loss of freedom for the animal. Notably, most pet owners are far kinder to their animals than the Filthful and Disgraceful Slavebugger is to their people.
However, it is not appropriate for even children to be controlled to this extent.
i believe jehovah is not concentrating on mankind in general until the new world.jesus is gathering his bride now-and that is it.wts-release your captives please!
It's just a reminder to the Rank & File that SH!T ROLLS DOWN HILL!
This lowers humans to the level of animals.
More like insects. Worker ants (JWs) obeying the Queen (MOTHER).
I love this quote:
If we are to walk in the light of truth we must recognize not only Jehovah God as our Father but his organization as our mother. (The Watchtower; 5/1/1957; pp. 274)
How sad! On a miniature scale in our local congregation, when elders began to enforce their "pet peeves" (these weren't spiritual things, they were like how many trips you were allowed to the bathroom per meeting) and the flock felt abused, the elders instead of recognizing the response of the flock as pain, they perceived it as "murmering".
Thus began an onslaught of "announcements" before EVERY Service meeting regarding the consequences of "disagreeing with the elders" along with a series of "special needs" parts featuring Dathan, Abiram, and Korah who were murmerers and DIED for their ATTITUDE. It was relentless.
WOW! What a guilt trip.
It sounds like that is what is going on now in a global scale. If you are in pain over your circumstances, and are unhappy with "new light", ITS YOUR FAULT!
And if you dont like it, we are going to make it more your fault if you complain.
How can this be?
bttt
pdf's would be really good!
Hi Mr Flipper...well it seems the old fools in Brooklyn are tightening the ropes...it is another vomiting article by the GB..what else to say
Those with an earthly hope SHOULD THEREFORE , recognize Christ as their head and BE SUBMISSIVE to the FAITHFUL AND DISCREET SLAVE and it's GOVERNING BODY and to the MEN APPOINTED as OVERSEERS in the congregation. "
I am dying to see a scan of this article. This statement alone should be enough to make anyone want to gag and run as fast as they can. They dont want to be called a cult, but they continue with this nonsense.
On the "not our own competence" point:
Essentially, a rock could show up at a person's door, and if God is moving them, they will accept the message.
It gets the individual jw off the hook in terms of trying to be etremely proficient at delivering the door-door message. The jws are being told that the credit does not belong to them, but to God. In itself, that's not so bad. But....Kind of makes one wonder why they spend so much time rehearsing presentations.
