  Do you have a JW hero?

  by Island Man in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  when i say jw hero i mean a jw who courageously did what was right despite the indoctrination and peer pressure to conform to cultishness.

  i have an unknown jw hero that i've never met but only heard of from an experience relayed to me about an incident at a jw funeral.. i was told that at a jw funeral internment, a non-jw put a wreath in the shape of a cross on the grave.

  shortly thereafter a jw elder came up and removed the wreath.

  I'm still in and know quite a few brothers who have either bent or broke a rule in order to help someone in the congregation. They are in the minority but are there nonetheless. Speaking casually to a disfellowshipped brother or sister at the KH is a heroic act, imo. Displaying mercy even when the Watchtower is against it is also a heroic act. Saying nothing when a parent is secretly associating with a disfellowshipped son who does not live at home is loving and, in the JW religion, also heroic.

  Truth is in Christ. All we do is repeat what he taught.

  There is no light outside of Christ's teachings. None.

  Elders who put brotherly love before organizational rule keeping are all heroes in my book. I've known plenty.

  Jesus is God's Son.

  He is beautiful as the sun and just as dangerous toward those who hypocritically claim to represent him.

  Anthony Morris III: "...we cannot control everything that an individual might say..."

  by cappytan in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i noticed that anthony morris iii just said on the broadcast: "while we cannot control everything that an individual might say, it is clear that over the decades protecting children from abuse is a top priority for this organization.".

  that, in my opinion, is a direct response to the richard ashe "spiritual protection not physical protection" deposition.. here's a video putting the two statements side by side.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgevpuyn7gy.

  Anthony Morris "the great" cannot control his own mouth much less that of others.

  Splane and Morris Should Thank Raymond Franz, Their Organizational Father

  by Hold Me-Thrill Me in

  the whole elder body teaching and governing body teaching was based on research by a well known "apostate" raymond franz.

  franz wrote the aid book articles which gave rise to the changes made in the congregations and bethel.

  knorr was deposed by the johnny come lately new governing body members who in turn gave birth to those in charge today.

  Thus Splane and Morris owe their positions to a famous "apostate". Can't think of a better reason to rethink the whole sad governing body system.

  From a JW point of view, that is.

  For me there is no greater work than to help my brothers get free from false apostles.

  July Broadcast Denies That JW Children Die Rather Than Have Medical Care

  by BluesBrother in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  anthony morris 3rd delivered the broadcast this month and advised that lies are circulated that they let children die rather than have medical care .

  he says this is so inaccurate as to be a boldfaced lie ...... further he says it is "up to the parents to determine what would be the best treatment for their children" .

  now, does this mean that parents are really free to make a decision to accept blood for their minor child, if they so choose?

  Morris uses a politician's double-speak.

  He is a forked tongue liar just as his real "father" is.

  He speaks publicly what Jaracz thought privately because Jaracz was not as stupid as Morris is.

  Morris has to go. Just looking at him brings revulsion.

  Haughtiness is written all over his face. In his recent life story he was sure to mention that the brother who studied with him was of the anointed and from Russell's generation. This was of course to solidify his place on the overlapping generation teaching.

  Problem is many of us in the 50's and 60's were taught by anointed members of Russell's generation so that's no big deal. But for Morris every opportunity to add a higher heel to his shoe is important.
