At the meeting Sunday, the point was to "just be obedient" even if, we don't fully understand why at the time.
That is disturbing on so many levels.
It implies that the leaders "know better" than the rank and file. It reminds me of when Obama told America "they didn't explain the health care bill good enough." No way it could be a bad idea it just needs to be explained better.

leaving: "Fact" doesn't mean what you think it does
Brilliant! ;-)
Don't they claim to have been selected by Jesus to provide meat in due season?
A lot of the meat they have provided has proven to be infected, but they never seem to be held accountable.
They claim to be the only organization on earth that "understands the deep things of God," but they forget to mention this when they are caught in yet another embarrassing failed prophesy or doctrinal flip-flop.
Their nitpicking distinctions regarding not having said "these are the words of Jehovah" is reminscent of the Pharisees' position on oaths that Jesus rebuked in Matthew 23:16: "Woe to you, blind guides! You say, 'If anyone swears by the temple, it means nothing; but if anyone swears by the gold of the temple, he is bound by his oath.'"
Doesn't anyone who teaches falsehood in the name of Jehovah dishonor Jehovah?
Isn't it have been better not to use His name at all than to misuse it?
I once heard a tape in which a JW told Walter Martin, "The WT is a prophet in a sense..."
He replied, "No, none of this `prophet in a sense' business. Either they're a prophet of Jehovah or they're not a prophet of Jehovah. Which is it?"
Kind of cut through all the WT BS...
meat in due season
With friends like WT, who needs enemies?
SAB, I could just kiss you for this post I finally had a return visit,
and everything I pointed to out of their literature, didn't do any
good because they kept saying they were not prophets, and the
illustration they used was that of a single mother who did duel roles
of being a parent, but she is not a father. I was left speechless
it wasn't until they left, is when i thought about it, and realized that
the single mom didn't claim inspiration from holy spirit, or predictated
the future.
Hey Outlaw, I even showed them that picture out of the proclaimers book
that's on page 163. Guess what ? it didn't phase them. they caught me off gaurd
this time but i'm gonna be prepared next time
