  "MARKED" as undesireable association because of college

  by LexWatson in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  "i" who was marked as someone bad to associate with simply because i wanted to make enough to support my family and the approved professions (which our congregation was already saturated with) of window washers, carpet cleaners, janitorial services, and siding and window replacement workers did not appeal to me.

  Would the WT club have mandated the prodigal son be shunned?

  by LexWatson in

  the prodigal son's father met him out on the road as he approached, put a fine robe around his shoulders and had rings made for him.

  they had a big party as he announced "my son has come home!!

  " everone knew he had blown his inheritance on liquor and prostitutes.. wouldn't the wt "arrangement" have mandated a comittee meeting to have been held to determine if they felt he was truly repentant and most probably he would have to had a period of time that he was shunned so they could tell the congregation "that situation had been dealt with".

  No prayer for disfellowshipped ones

  by LexWatson in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'd enjoy reading your comments about prayer.. the wt club says it is inappropriate to pray for those who are disfellowshipped...and we should obey them lest we be shunned and not be part of the organization jehovah is using.. however the bible tells me we should even pray for our enemies!

  jesus set the example by even praying for those who were torturing him and murdering him.

  "father forgive them!
