    ?Does God Work Through An Organization?? by Tom Cabeen (former Bethel Family member) presents a Biblical examination of the Watchtower concept that God works through an organization rather than with individuals.

    Is it possible that God communicates certain things to us individually and other things through an approved organization which acts in the role of a prophet?

    This idea is based on the idea that an organization can act like a person. An organization can influence its members to copy the viewpoints of its leaders, express themselves in a similar way, or act in a uniform manner. It may appear that the organization has a mind of its own, but that is not so. An organization is not a separate entity like a person. It has no capability for independent thought, feeling and opinion.

    Is talking against the organisation the same as talking against the UN?

    The UN is ok to deal with as long as it doesn't get out! See, that's why they're "discreet".

    Helped us to learn our Bible? Puleeeeze!

    It took a non-jw commentary on the NT for this dolt to see how parts of Ephesians were lifted from Colossians and 2 Peter from Jude. Inspired to plagiarize I guess.

    And to my shame, I was made a ministerial servant and sorta convinced myself to try it despite having had doubts for years. My service record was sub-par to boot. So much for Spirit-Directed appointments.

    If love is THE identifying mark of a "true Christian", JWs prove themselves to be UNchristian.

    JWs can't join the YMCA/YWCA for physical fitness purposes or to take advantage of their low child care cost, but the WTBTS sure can join the UN, and for 10 years mind you, for a farging library card!!!

    Farging jerks!!!
