Last Sunday's washtowel (As per Blondie's thread), was another propaganda trip down that oh so familiar 'the end is SOON' lane. It seems to me that of late, the 'study edition' rags have been getting more guilt and hate inducing.
I feel sorry for them all sitting in the austere prison of the kingdom hell beeing spoon fed this kool-aid and bubbling and writhing in the ardour of their own stew of delusions.
Another thing is that if the WBT$ was taken to task over these deluded souls threatening you with god we all know what would happen. The WBT$ wouldn't lift a finger to support them.....................but try telling them that!
Here are a couple of snippets from the letters I received when the elders were hounding me:
Dear Punk
I am aware that you have requested that there be no contact from the congregation, but there is an outstanding matter that needs to be resolved, and we would like to have your co-operation in resolving it.
You will realize from your years as a witness that you are presently considered to be a member of the congregation, even though it is now some months since you have attended any meetings. We feel that it is now time for us to clarify the situation, and with that in mind we would like to ask you to meet briefly with myself and (Brother Thinkshesimportant) in order for us to outline what action the congregation proposes to take, and give you an opportunity of expressing your wishes in this connection.
If you do not wish to meet with us, we would appreciate it if you would be good enough to put in writing your position with regard to your membership of the congregation.
Thank you for your attention to this, I hope you are in good health and look forward to your response
...........and finally..............
Dear Punk
I understand from (Mrs Punk) that you do not intend to reply to my recent letter, but the matter of your membership of the congregation still to be resolved.
We have had reports from several sources that you are now attending a church in Punkyland, and I am sure you will realise that if this is the case it is not compatible with your membership of the congregation.
We would like now to resolve this matter, and this in mind we have arranged a meeting at 7:30 p.m. on Friday September 23rd at the Kingdom Hall at (address). We would like you to attend this meeting so that you can have an opportunity of making your position clear and we can hear firsthand what you wish to do. This meeting will be of a judicial nature in view of the scriptures at 1 John 2:19, 2 John 9, etc.
If you would like to attend this meeting but the date is not convenient for you, you may contact the writer of this letter (I’m Sogreat) on 01xxx xxxxx or 07xxx xxxxxx or email xxxxxx@gmail.....
If you do not wish to attend, perhaps you would do us the courtesy of writing to make your position clear and what you wish to do with regard to your membership of the congregation. I would add that if you decide not to attend we reserve the right to make a desicion in your absence.
Over the years there have been a number who stopped associating with the congregation for one reason or another, and some of these have resumed their meeting attendance and service after a time, having missed the fine association with spiritually-minded individuals. There certainly is a fine spirit in the congregation, and we believe this to be an evidence of Jehovah's blessing. It is our hope that you will one day join with us in this fine, loving and peaceful association.
We hope you are in good health and we look forward to your response.
Yours etc.
