    My husband and I have some very good friends who were DF'd for having a wreath on their door at Christmas time. It wasn't a Christmas wreath either...it was just a dried floral wreath that they had up all year round.

    They were accused of celebrating pagan festivities. This kind of love really opened their eyes and they have never gone back.

    Ever since they left the hall everything in their life has improved. Business, bigger house, family situation. My friends business was even featrued on the front page of the newspaper.

    It really made me laugh since the WTS teaches that if you leave your life will go to Sh*t.

    And everyone knows that JWs are a jealous lot. If they stopped doing biz with "the friends", big deal!

    This is interesting since the non annointed elders were called by the GB to judge these two annointed JWs it shows that the GB don't accept criticism from anyone and have respect for no one.

    Best thing to do would be to show up at the Inquisition hearing with a lawyer and a reporter or two. Make sure we all get copies of the pictures/videos.

    Although I am curious, all this talk about "threatening" the elders with a lawsuit against them personally... is there a shred of evidence that this would be successful? My guess is that (unless the elder did something really stupid), A) the Society will go to bat for the elder, and B) the lawsuit will fail.

    Elsewhere,

    Matt. 10:27 "What I tell YOU in the darkness, say in the light; and what YOU hear whispered, preach from the housetops."

    Well, they can't protest the DF'ing, I think, but there might be a case to sue for damages and distress. These elders were warned about the woman's medical condition, her likely reaction, but decided to take action anyhow. It seems that damages can be claimed, because this goes beyond "buyer beware".

    Well well. My first thought was..isn't the "Spiritual " food supposed to come though the annointed?

    Maybe it was God's message to the JW's that they were doing something wrong?

    And they ain't listening..

    Scary...very scary!

    Snoozy...

    Let's see if I got this right.

    Exposing truth will get a person evicted from Joe Hoba's organisation. Tell lies and mislead people that the 'head' of the JW's is Jesus and not the Governing Body and you get 'privileges'.

    Maybe the JW's forgot to read their bibles:


    *** Rbi8 John 3:17-21 ***
    17 For God sent forth his Son into the world, not for him to judge the world, but for the world to be saved through him. 18 He that exercises faith in him is not to be judged. He that does not exercise faith has been judged already, because he has not exercised faith in the name of the only-begotten Son of God. 19 Now this is the basis for judgment, that the light has come into the world but men have loved the darkness rather than the light, for their works were wicked. 20 For he that practices vile things hates the light and does not come to the light, in order that his works may not be reproved. 21 But he that does what is true comes to the light, in order that his works may be made manifest as having been worked in harmony with God.”

    *** Rbi8 John 12:42-43 ***
    42 All the same, many even of the rulers actually put faith in him, but because of the Pharisees they would not confess [him], in order not to be expelled from the synagogue; 43 for they loved the glory of men more than even the glory of God.

    *** Rbi8 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 ***
    9 But the lawless one’s presence is according to the operation of Satan with every powerful work and lying signs and portents 10 and with every unrighteous deception for those who are perishing, as a retribution because they did not accept the love of the truth that they might be saved. 11 So that is why God lets an operation of error go to them, that they may get to believing the lie, 12 in order that they all may be judged because they did not believe the truth but took pleasure in unrighteousness.

    *** Rbi8 Revelation 22:14-15 ***
    15 Outside are the dogs and those who practice spiritism and the fornicators and the murderers and the idolaters and everyone liking and carrying on a lie.’
