My Assembly was very interesting indeed.
The Assembly I went to was July 12th-14th.
I went to Friday Afternoon and Sunday Afternoon.
Friday Afternoon -- I heard the unbelievably hypocritical "Deception" Talk, and in this Talk the Speaker said "DO NOT DECEIVE THOSE WHO ARE ENTITLED TO KNOW THE TRUTH!"
Also, on Friday Afternoon, the Governing Body Member, Guy Pierce, gave a Talk, in which he said, basically, "IF YOU GET DISFELLOWSHIPPED, JEHOVAH WILL DESTROY YOUR CHILDREN AT ARMAGEDDON!"
Now, it gets interesting on Sunday Afternoon.
Sunday Afternoon -- GB Member, Guy Pierce, gave an unforgettable Talk, in which he said the following things at different times throughout his Talk:
"Christians should not watch Boxing or Wrestling"
Then he gave a story about how there was, in some location, a Kingdom Hall that was built with very little donations used, and then in another Church in that town, the Church Members got upset with the Priest, and they asked the Priest why the Priest hadn't gotten the new Church Building built yet, because they had been donating money for years for a new Church. The Priest then said "Because you haven't donated enough." Guy Pierce then explains that the Church Members beat up the Priest. Then the whole Assembly Crowd started laughing!
Remember now, Pierce had just said that Christians aren't even supposed to watch any violence in entertainment, but yet the whole crowd laughs at a Priest getting beat up (including Pierce).
Also, Pierce mentions something about "How did you all like that surprise Talk about the MEDIA this morning?"
Unfortunately, I didn't attend the Morning, so I don't know what the "Surprise Talk on the Media" said, although I am sure it was about DATELINE, etc.
Then, Pierce basically says that Witnesses should not believe the stories the Media has about JW's because the Media is controlled by Satan.
Then, he reads this Scripture about the MEDIA (I am sure he was talking about DATELINE with this one):
Matthew 5:11: Blessed are you when they shall reproach you, and persecute you, and shall say every evil word against you, lying, on account of Me.
So, Pierce quoted Jesus Christ to call the silentlambs LIARS!
Then near the end, Pierce says something like "JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES HAVE WON A COURT BATTLE FOR FREEDOM OF RELIGION, NOT JUST FOR US, BUT FOR THE WHOLE COUNTRY!" in reference to their Ohio Case.
Very interesting Assembly indeed!
