  Elder wants to stop by with the CO for a visit .

  by NikL in

  2. friends

  so i got a text from an elder who i consider one of the good guys and a friend in his own way.. he asked if he could bring the co by for a visit.

  he said it would be "just a pleasant call and visit and will hopefully encourage my wife".

  he says that "he knows she is dealing with a ton of pressure".. in all my years around the organization, i never had a visit from the circuit overseer.

  Ask your wife. She can decide for herself, so can you.

  Australian Royal Commission, March 2017 & the February 2017 Watchtower

  by Londo111 in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  the february 2017 watchtower says: “the governing body is neither inspired nor infallible.

  therefore, it can err in doctrinal matters or in organizational direction.”.

  could this frank admission be a prelude to any fallout to australian royal commission’s recommendations in march 2017?.

  For me, a Dutch man, it is somewhat scary to see, how extreme Americans react on elections.

  They don't have any knowledge about the world across the borders ("The Netherlands, that's that nice tiny village in Belgium, isn't it, just opposite China??) think that the US is still a great nation.

  The hate against Clinton, the hypocrisy about "Leader of the free world".

  It seems a circus to me.

  I think it is a common reaction (not only for JW's) here in Europe, that the world has become mad.

  So let's see how Trump's new deal will work!

  Here an example about the hard stand on shunning, in real life, an Interview in a Dutch newspaper.

  The JW father, in real life a man with a very good management job at KLM airways in Amsterdam, tells that his believe is always above the relation with his children. "Jehovah is above everything, even you children", free translated.

  See the lovely picture, knowing it means nothing to him when the organizational believe is at stake.

  the statement in the article "who is leading gods people today?

  " in the feb 17th study edition of the wt is very interesting.. it states: ""the g.b.

  is neither inspired nor infallible" ..we can err .in doctrinal matters....".

  I don't believe there is a major change on the horizon. The article is a triumph story about the GB. Holy Spirit, Angel help, God's approval etc. I think it is a clarification to the rank and file to set thinks straight about the past and not about the future!
