  How many child abuse cases?

  by LHS123 in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  does anyone know where i can find numbers of how many child abuse cases have been brought against jws or settled out of court?.

  i know that 1 is too many and statistics don't reflect the horror suffered, but i would like some numbers to use when explaining to others the reasons for my decreased activity and to have support for my reasons for 'stumbling', facts which might make others think too.. im from uk so it helps that the charities commission is investigating there and also there's a paedophiles exposed website which names 32 jws convicted in uk since 2012, horrifying!

  I would say the r&f are oblivious to it Joe, unless they saw a report in a paper somewhere. My wife knows now, but she's not said anything about it...

  New light on more parables

  by Deltawave in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  well after a full watchtower study last week about how we should not read to much into bible account as types and antitypes, we had a whole study article on what the 10 wise virgins now means.

  interesting though is the fact that only in 2007/8 they taught that the discreet virgins were the annointed ones who waited for christ's return in 1914 and the foolish ones were the ones who fell away in 1914 because the end didn't come.

  now though, we have new light!

  Possibly a great question to ask JW's since this last week's WT.

  so since the type anti-type doctrine has been dropped 'does this mean peter was right when at luke 12 :41 he said the faithful and discreet slave was just a parable?

  Read on Watchtower Documents how discarding types-antitypes impacts the very core doctrine of the “faithful and discreet slave” itself!

  by AndersonsInfo in

  2. bible

  in the july 15, 1909 watch tower, c. t. russell said, we are loath to give any explanation of types not directly or indirectly referred to in the new testament.

  " yet, during the next approximately 100-years, the organization russell founded didn't follow his footsteps but did the opposite until the march 15, 2015 watchtower magazine stated "no more.

  Are you religious or are you spiritual? Wake up to what?

  by Deltawave in

  1. watchtower

  there is a huge difference between been religious and been spiritual.

  been religious is about been superior to others in the sight of god.

  however, been spiritual is about self awareness, inner peace and unity with the natural world.

  German Branch visit talk Mark Sanderson (Parents; don't hinder young children to get baptized)

  by Daniel1555 in

  2. friends

  the video streaming of the german branch visit program was excrutiating 3.5 hours long.. i just went to see the last 45 min (part of mark sandersons talk).. i think sanderson is quite a sympathetic speaker and he kind of made a loving impression.. he didn't mention controversial stuff (except for one thing i will come to soon).

  he mostly talked about how to find joy, even when life is not easy, and how much the gb loves the rank and file.. one point seemed soooo important to him.

  parents and children.

  I believe, oub, and I could be wrong, that he may have been in the region of his THIRTIES.

  this saturday is the branch visit of mark sanderson in the selters german bethel.. there will be a video streaming for all the congs.. some of you might have heard branch visit talks of sanderson.. will there be something special or controversial?.

  i am not sure if i should attend even if it's just for noting or recording some controversial stuff.

  would be hard though, 3 hours of wasted time.

  If it's the same as the visit we just has in the UK, it's mostly inoffensive stuff. No tight pants comments.

  One daft part was where they were talking about law victories, he numbered how many they'd win, but then said, we do lose SOME, but that it doesn't matter cos we FEEL Jah is with us... Hmm.

  WWorse was a part on depression, mentioned a lady had put a note in the contribution box saying this was meant to be a suicide note, but so up built by the program, she decided not to. . He said how many feel these feelings of depression , which is nice to acknowledge, but there was not ONE mention of getting HELP professionally.

  Just that nothing can separate from love of Christ. Even death. Yeh, very encouraging. The perfect opportunity to help take away the stigma of seeking help for mental health issues, wasted.
