the elders stopped by today.
they spoke of a new arrangement where the org is asking everyone to come back regardless of their sins.
they just want them to come back with impunity.
possibly lied to, my understanding is impeccable. I obviously questioned this and they confirmed what was said. 2 Chronicles 19:1-3 was cited. The king had committed terrible sins, but was forgiven. (Are our sins worse?) Sounds like a speciality scripture from NYC.
Again, just sharing what was mentioned. Doesn't really matter to me on what is believable and what is not.
sorry if i'm late on this........... http://allhiphop.com/stories/alternatives/archive/2010/02/16/22125881.aspx.
allhiphop.com: what scares you the most?.
omarion: i am not afraid of anything.
Omarion had a manager named chris stokes. He was at my circuit assembly in the late 80's. I met him in woodland hills. His sister juanita, was my best friends fiance....she was called MC smooth (i think). I met her at our bookstudy. I think they lived in rowland heights....not sure.
I am sure that Omarion was influenced by chris to be a witness.

The example of the prodical son was given and some other scriptures as well. The sins would have to be confessed, but impunity would be given.....unless they do not know the meaning of the word. They said Jehovah is forgiving the unwashed to allow everyone to get life. Isn't that loving?! (lol)
I know that if you turn in time, no one cares if u attend the meetings. You are NOT on the CO's report....You are invisible.....Now, that no longer applies. I am on the radar......they said that this is a rare case...

I had not been to the meeting in years, but turned in time to NOT be bothered. They said that I can NOT do that anymore, unless I attend the meeting. They asked the CO.

I am assuming that if you fornicate and say you are a witness, then you bring reproach. Despite being inactive, people think you are a witness, even though you are inactive. The thought is when you become active, you were disciplined. If you fornicate and do not say you are a J-Dub.......and STOP, then the impunity clause probably kicks in.
The above is all my own reasoning, not based on my conversation.

I am not sure if it is true or not. This is based on dialogue only.

Yes, I asked directly. They stated that people, especially women will commit great sins and feel that they would get disfellowshipped if they returned. The key is to not sin and say that u are a witness. This was said to be in a letter from Brooklyn.
Also, you can NOT turn in time and not attend the meetings. Time is only for ACTIVE J-Dubs.

Also spoke of the New York elders school becoming local.
from jw.org, here is the new definition of the generation from the april 15, 2010 watchtower.. .
article: holy spirits role in the outworking of jehovahs purpose.
13 third, holy spirit is at work in bringing bible.
With this new logic and reasoning, it appears that there will truly NOT be any intelligent J-Dubs in the org. This teaching will be ignored and 5 years before it reverts back to a previous understanding, the majority of dubs will examine it.
