IF it is NOT wise for a man to be ALONE with a woman he's NOT married to
by Spike Tassel insola scriptura answered andersonsinfo:.
the wt leadership has hammered into all of it's elders and rank & file's heads, that it is not wise for a man to be alone with a woman he is not married too (adult or young woman... ie 14).
even in congregation sanctioned duties.. so, why, then, do so many service pairings involve just that: a brother alone in the territory (even if it's to make a call) with a sister he's not married to?.

Speaking Truth With Our Neighbour
by Spike Tassel inthe 3rd study article in the june 15, 2009 issue of the watchtower is entitled speak truth with your neighbor.
it has as its opening subheading who is our neighbor?, which includes paragraphs 4-7.. for those interested, page 17 is found in its entirety in a scan found at http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/bible/180262/1/you-can-lie-to-apostates-but-not-the-elders-aug-23-study-wt.
this linked topic has prompted me to start the topic we are at here.. paragraph 4 mentions that some jewish leaders taught that the term "neighbor" was only to be applied to "worthy" individuals, such as fellow jews or personal friends.

isaacaustin's claim regarding "the Creator's promise"
by Spike Tassel inisaacaustin: spike, you said jehovah defines false prophets...the reasoning book is man's writing.. i am well aware of the reasoning books weak attempt to deny their being a false prophets....such as 'never did they say these are the words of jehovah".
guess what?
they did say that, in calling their 1914 generation prophecy 'the creator's promise".

how the GB legislates who you can love and talk to, and how they do it
by Spike Tassel inalltimejeff: the thread/topic is about how the gb legislates love, and a quote that was used in the drama at this years convention was very striking.
if there are any comments concerning how the gb both legislates who you can love and talk to, and how they legislate who can and cannot love you, that would be most welcome.. spike tassel: okay, here's the topic, properly titled.
it's all yours, atj..

where do the refinements come from?, and why do you answer thus?
by Spike Tassel inbluecanary asks [with emphasis mine]:.
in the past when god's chosen leader acted without his blessing, god corrected the individual/group in an obvious and miraculous way.
why does it appear, then, that when the gb is "adjusted" it comes from external sources, such as the 1914 generation dying off, or races integrating nationwide.
