  This is exactly how it was for me!

  Before I was hauled in the little room, my older MS friend in the hall (who knew cos I told him) said to me not to lie or even omit or misrepresent anything as the holy spirit would tell the elders and that it would be the holy spirit that would decide if I was truly repentant or not!

  Well, I lied my ass off!

  I didn't deny anything, but I wasn't sorry one bit!

  And they bought it.

  Then second time, when someone told on me I lied again and they still bought it.

  Right there, I realised there was no holy spirit directing anything. My eyes began to open, and then I woke up.

  Does the WT in its literature actually claim that the H.Spirit would reveal things to a J.C ? Or is that just JW urban myth ?

  I was told by a young chap I know of his experience. He was called in to a JC as the only one who could positively say that a young unmarried couple had shared a bedroom. he lied and said the did not, when in fact they had, the J.C had to let them off.

  Phizzy, good question. I know as an elder for 20 years that was what I both was taught and taught to others. Let me do some research and see what I can come up with.

  Probably Blondie could lay her fingers on some WT quotes in a Brooklyn Minute 1 , but off the top of my head I recall the accounts of Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 4 or Achan in Joshua 7 as being used to prove that concept.

  1 - "Brooklyn Minute" - the JW version of a New York Minute , it is the time it take Present Truth to be replaced with New Light.
