Shepherd the Flock of God, page 55

There are times when an emotionally distressed Christian may seek professional help. Whether a Christian or his family pursues treatment from psychiatrists, psychologists, or therapists is a personal decision. An elder should not assume the responsibility of recommending a speciﬁc practitioner or facility. He may draw attention to or discuss material in the publications that provides cautions regarding therapies that may conﬂict with Bible principles. (w88 10/15 pp.28-29; w82 6/15 pp.25-29; w75 pp.255-256) While participating in group therapy by a professional therapist is a matter for personal decision, there could be a revealing of conﬁdential facts about other members of the Christian congregation during such sessions if a Christian does not exercise discretion.

What would you do for next November 5?

i think everything has to start somewhere, and you can see the passion and commitment from those loyal 50 that showed up in warwick yesterday.

the event was not very well organized but you could see the passion & dedication from most of them.

and i think they at least touched a couple of people at the kh yesterday.. having an annual day of action actually inspires me.

Exjw activists protesting inside a Kingdom Hall today!

by Crazyguy in

spoonfed nomore, has uploaded a video on his youtube site, of exjw activists protesting inside a kingdom hall during this sunday meeting.

several people speak out.

if some one can put a link on here that would be awesome, i can’t figure out how to do it with an i phone.

darkspilver

Crazyguy: If some one can put a link on here that would be awesome,

Please note the following:

Re: Southern California USA Congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses On High Alert
Simon: Don't post this shit on here again. JWs have the right to worship in peace in their own Kingdom Halls without harassment or threats. At some point, some idiot is going to go too far and hurt someone. There was someone on here last week posting videos who obviously has serious mental health issues - applauding this is dangerous.
None of this convinces anyone, it just reinforces everything that they have been told about people who leave.
Aggressive activism doesn't work. It guarantees that you are viewed as a nutty fringe bunch and nothing more.

Video that has been called "The Apostate Manifesto"...

by Tuesday in

jw
friends

hey folks, so i made this video as a response to some of the youtube apostates about my vast apostate army recruitment video.

i'm getting overwhelming comments and messages regarding it and a couple people have called it "the apostate manifesto".

i figured i'd post it here for everyone to check out, i thought you all might enjoy it.

Diogenesister: he mentions 5th Nov 2017...why? Was it random?

The idea seems to have originated around eight years ago.

I believe the date - November 5 - is tied in with the video below.

In addition, the original idea (?) appears to have also included trying to get as many ex/former-JWs to attend the Sunday public meeting at KHs around the world on this one day, as a passive display of the 'vast' number of ex-JWs.

I think that 2017 is the first year that November 5 has fallen on a Sunday since 2006.

South Ossetia declares Jehovah’s Witnesses ‘extremists

by pleaseresearch in

the supreme court in the breakaway south ossetia has ruled that jehovah’s witnesses is an extremist organization and banned its activities.. when the ruling comes into force in a few days, jehovah’s witnesses members will face up to 10 years in jail for any religious activities such as assembly and distributing literature.. http://dfwatch.net/south-ossetia-jehovahs-witnesses-49295.

darkspilver

Interesting. Thanks.

Apparently South Ossetia is only recognized by four UN countries - Nauru, Nicaragua, Russia and Venezuela.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_recognition_of_Abkhazia_and_South_Ossetia#States_formally_recognising_Abkhazia_or_South_Ossetia_as_independent

It would seem that if any organization/country dealt directly with, or had direct dialogue with, South Ossetia, they would be lending a certain amount of legitimacy to this breakaway state.

The JW 2017 Yearbook does not list 'South Ossetia' as a country/land in the Annual Report.

https://www.jw.org/en/publications/books/2017-yearbook/jehovahs-witnesses-service-report-2016/

Georgia, from whom South Ossetia is claiming independance, was the featured country in the JW 2017 Yearbook. Though the report doesn't appear to include anything on SO?

The map of Georgia that the Yearbook uses clearly shows South Ossetia as being part of Georgia.

Since Some Were Asking About The Vast Apostate Army...

by Tuesday in

jw
friends

hey everyone, a couple people were asking about the november 5th, 2017 reference in the last hitler as the leader of the watchtower parody video so i figured i'd swing by and post a link to the latest recruitment video for the vast apostate army.. all my other videos are for my daughter and to help her if she ever questions religion (or jws specifically), this one however is for me.

i always get a really big grin on my face when dustin talks about the vast apostate army and i really just want to set him off for a few videos.

so i think this outlines the purpose of the vast apostate army and gives you a cool chorus to sing along to.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=corqwanyuos.

slimboyfat: I like this 2017 idea. The Witnesses have set lots of dates for the end themselves, so it's poetic justice to set one for them. And because we can be active about it, and not just sit around 'waiting for Jehovah to act' we can contribute to making it a self-fulfilling prophecy. Let's see if it builds momentum. One thing's for sure, it's got a better chance than any prediction the Watchtower ever made.
