  JC letter of invitation. Do they always get signed?

  by StarTrekAngel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was just shown a jc letter from a friend and i noticed that the bottom of it was signed by tree elders.

  the letter specifically stated that it was an invitation to a "judicial committee" due to the brother having a marital relationship that was not aligned with bible principles.. i am asking because i remember reading experiences of brothers who demanded their jc be arranged over certified mail with signed letters to which elders refused to do.

  since they could not get this done the matter was dropped and no dfing ever happened.

  And of course, only a high control cult would have a specific set of guidelines and directives printed in a book just for elders, that seems to override the bible....

  “There’s nothing out there in the world for you...”

  how would you guys react if or when you were told this phrase by a jw while having a conversation?

  another phrase is “this world...” or “this system, like gum will chew you up and when it’s done with you, spit you right back out.”.

  one i’ve been personally told was from a convert that had told me “whenever i speak to young ones that want to know if the grass is greener on the other side, i tell them i was a part of it.

  Every high control cult like group has their own variation of that expression.

  It is the usual Fear Obligation and Guilt used to try and lock members in physically and emotionally....

  Those "experiences" are ALWAYS embellished in some way...

  They are NEVER as "wonderful" as they are made out to be by the org.

  I know of assembly experiences that were blatantly distorted and embellished! My wife submitted one to the CO once, and some time later, while listening to an assembly, her experience was related...BUT severely edited and embellished!

  the disgusting is reached - not only had her parents driven her away, she committed suicide and her exclusion is announced after her death, which means that she was ostracized by all and it will be said that this sect is a spiritual paradise.

  "Cultivate Self-Control"

  by mrssauk in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  this weeks watchtower study (september 2017) about self-control states: "clearly, people who lack self-control are causing problems for themselves and for others.

  and the problem of lacking self-control is worsening.

  self-discipline was studied in the 1940’s, but recent studies have shown that people have become much worse at exercising self-discipline.
