  dear members about a month ago i read about an article in the watchtower november i think ......

  it was titled something along the lines of "how to be a friend to jesus" the answering paragraph explained something along these lines ~ " to be a friend to jesus remain faithful to the organisation obey the faithful and descrete slave ..... and then something about the elders on more of a personal level"

  could someone please post the "how to be a friend to jesus" article and confirm which watchtower it is in ?

  or if possible direct me to that particular post .......

  this would be greatly apprieciated

  kind regards and many many thanks benny

  I remember the article you are talking about but cannot find the thread that it was mentioned on. I will find the actual magazine and scan the pages for you.

  OK I'm pretty sure this is the one you are talking about. Here is the scan of the relevant pages.

  

  

  

  Now I remember that disgusting comment at the end of para 18 "When we overlook the faults of the elders and joyfully follow their direction, we prove our love for Christ."

  Hope this the one you were looking for exjwbenny.....

  All the best with trying to get your dad out.
