I confessed to an elder of something I did and it so happened to be on a meeting night that I did wrong and the elders response was "well if you were at meeting that wouldn’t have happened see how it is a protection for us."

oh, i'm a pioneer and jehovah gave me $10 for gas
by monophonic ini'm drawing a huge blank..
there was a thread here a while back on the bogus experiences at the assemblies about how jehovah stepped in just when a pioneer has $0, and oh, boy, were we blessed.......yet whenver bad things happen, even when praying for help, like someone gets killed, the 'we put in 75 hours of service and jehovah fed us' theory turns idiotic..
anyone remember that thread...or wanna give me some word power over those pathetic experiences....just got one via email from a relative and really want to throw back a doozy to make him think..

I knew one girl who slept over at a guys house and nothing happened but the elders didnt believe her and was going to df her so since she was going to get dfed anyway for something she didn't do she went ahead and did it, winded up pregnant and still dfed.

When Elders go too Far...
by BigBloomerz inthis is just something that really peed me off regarding the elders, is how low they are sinking to get gossip and stuff now, i was in contact with a well trusted friend of mine who used to attend meetings up until 2 years ago, his wife is still in the jw org, he was having a joke around on some text messages with me regarding my man saying "try before you buy" and so on, which i found amusing....lets just say his wife didnt...she snooped on his phone, wrote out the texts he had sent me and gave the transcript to the elders, and now he has to go before a judicial commitee.
how wrong is that, for a start its an invasion of privacy!
i was fuming yesterday when i found out.

sounds to me like she's just looking for a way out of the marriage. i know of one women who called the elders while her and her husband were fighting just to prove that he was trying to hit her because she wanted out.

Need advice from elders, former elders and anyone else for that matter.....
by nonamegiven inok, i've been df'd for 5 months or so now and i'm getting ready to write a letter requesting reinstatment.
i'm assuming something like "i know jah has already forgiven me so now i"m asking you imperfect sinners to forgive me my sins and give me my life back please".
wouldn't work.

I had to write two letters before they reinstated me. I wanted to write what you said you wanted to write also. admitting wrong and that you've made changes in your life that will prevent doing wrong again is a start. but for some reason I had this feeling that the elders had already made up there minds before the letter and before you meet with them, to how long your going to be dfed. 1 year 1 month thats how long I was dfed and I made meetings and I changed my life around, after I got reinstated I went back for a little while but after that I was done. Now I'm inactive. I just cant get it out of my head that a child molster was only dfed for 6 monthes and I got the sentence of a whole year. I hope for the best for you. I dont have any other suggestions for now.
