  Gods organisation here on Earth

  by Dr Jekyll in

  ok so we all know that the faithful and discrete slave class claim to be gods organisation here on earth and that they claim that a god of order would have an organisation to organise his followers but can anyone pull a scripture of of their hat that proves that god doesn't need an organisation here on earth?

  But the trinity is false... I mean... wasn't John 1:1 like that in the beggining. Did the KJV not just change it?

  while talking to my teacher today we talked about excommunication.

  i told her i thought it was mean to not talk to those members which have been excommunicated.

  she told me; however, that those who leave the church should be punished.

  "What did she say it meant those who "leave" the church? Did she mean people who just stop attending the meetings or people who stop turning in "time slips" for how much time they spending talking to non-JWs about JW teachings?" Well I just asked "what happens if someone get excommunicated?"-- we did not clarify what that person would be doing to get disfellowshipped

  Well I brought up excommunication.. and I never heard that word until I got on researching JW
  She explained that if you are disfellowshiped you are able to be forgiven and come back.
  Her husband broke in and started talking about (serious sins) like adultry and if I would want to continue talking to my husband if he cheated on me. I told him NO and he made his point there
  I would never be Catholic.. are you kidding me? I don't except Idoltry (cross worshipping)-- my relatives are Catholic however and some have tattoed the cross on themselves. That is just sick!
  Oh NO.. of course she did not say church... she just said if people forgive and are really sad about what they did they can come back.
  "Is this "not talking" an individual decision?" We never really disscussed if it was an individual action, or stated what actions were more serious than others. She made it seem though, as though it should be the congregation (not the individual person) who ignores the member who sinned. She never said the whole congregation should ignore the person who sins, but seemed to imply it.

(not quoting exactly, but roughly what we talked about). What you guys think of her saying that?

  Cool.. nice stuff. I noticed a lot of stuff in the Jehovah's Witness bible is contraditing. Anyone come up on stuff like that? It just makes me question myself somewhat
