Yah , one minute it's ,OBEY OBEY OR ELSE , the next it's ,well we really didn't say that , the 2 witness rule was started by some rogue in the church somewhere , exactly which elder guide book was being enforced by some roque elders in not known .- I guess they all burn the old ones so there's no evidence .

Are the Watchtower HQ washing their hands of congregations?
by uk_ex_jw init seems more and more from what i read that if there is problems in congregations (i.e.
paedophilia) the wtbts are washing their hands of any wrongdoing and leaving the congregation and its elder's to carry the can.. is that how it is now?.

looks like the change of making elders ,overseers, came shortly after the law suit . Amazing how the org. can find ways around accountablity when it comes to money . Didn't the overseers have to spend time at bethel and be dispatched by the GB or some sort of review panel ? Seems like higher education is only valued by them when it comes to lawyers .

I do hate petty people that always try to create some sort of drama and are 2 faced back biters , is my experience. I've given them several chances to prove to me they are better than that but always I regret it .

When does someone become Anointed with Holy Spirit?
by The Searcher ina bible truth - "one baptism".
(ephesians 4:5) .
however, according to 'accepted wisdom', there must be two baptisms - one visible, and one invisible.

The WT NT says third heaven not paradise . Nobody knows who he's talking about , some say stephen, who would have the holy spirit since he was actively preaching the gospel and was martyred . The israelites believed in the paradise earth under messianic rule , I don't see a scripture where jesus offered a co ruler spot to anyone other than the apostles prior to his death , once he is resurrected and ascends to heaven is when he sends the holy spirit at pentecost to anoint all those gathered in his name . The holy spirit is a gift that is to be used wisely in connection with the preaching work not some freak show novelty . IMO

I think whenever God wants to . The water baptism as the apostle Paul put it, was an appeal to God for a clean conscience so they could carry out the preaching work , a repentance of a former life of sin . The thief next to jesus was not anointed but was promised the paradise earth . IMO

Someone posted about their want to move to canada so I imagine this new,"bleeting", for money is so they can and the ones working there will likely get free health care whilst the rest can just wait on the kingdom . Unbelievable they just build a billion dollar printing facility with the end being so close , yet expect everyone to come up with more money . Jeeze a billion dollars to watch them make a mess out of dogma ? what joke
