ok, so earlier this summer at a dc i got to hear one of the gb speak.
he used some odd terminology i had not heard before.
he said this two or three times, so i mentally made note of it.
I mean, the official teaching is that anyone that is baptized is recognized as a JW.
NO. The official teaching is that ONLY ANOINTED JWs are recognized as real JWs.

for example, if i stumble upon unmarried jw couple having sex, and i take them photos, could the photos pass as evidence enough to df the couple in a jc..
You have all @BOE letters. You should know that, AGBM.
through various contacts, i heard this was said by a good bethelite at a local hall dedication.
(i won't quote what was said... i don't want to give away my source.).
plans are being made to attend the deliverance convention in july.
Stephen Lett said 2006 that the next DC will probably be held in paradise, without him, because he will be in heaven.
Stephen, do you remember that?
i don't want biblical answer, but from any watchtower publication.
has that question ever been answered in any watchtower publications?.
please, give me some references.. i expect answer from debator, alice, bane, scholar or any other active jehovah's witness.
Pirata, you have a PM.
i have a lot of consolation magazines that i could scan.. if you want a particular issue for research, tell me and i will scan it, and you can tell to the board more what are your research, so everybody will have more insight.. .
here is one of this magazine concerning the madison square garden incident.
this incident is connected with the olyn moyle's trial and it is interessant to see the vision of rutherford concerning this.. he tried in this magazine to excuse the usher, because what he said on stage was "the word of jehovah", so nobody must stop the "spreading of the word of god".
BTTT
i'm mostly here to meet new like minded friends.
growing up in the religion has jaded my perspective.
most of my believes the wts is bs, but there is that part in the back of my mind that fears they have the truth.

the other day i was talking to a jw in her 30's and mentioned jonestown and she had no idea what i was talking about.
she had never heard of it.
with all their harping about the dangers of 'false' religion, you would think that jonestown, heaven's gate, and the like would be right up their alley and would be brought up often as examples of why one should never leave the safety of the one true religion.
I have read the complete article now.
What was wrong with these people?
I remember I watched the documentary film about that when I was younger.
That's terrible!
new here, but have followed this site from the very start.
as my name states, i have seen it all.
former elder, bethelite, po, ms, 4th gen and still active as pub.
Hello seen! It is good to have you here! I am another active JW here. Welcome!
OK, are you serious? It is not problem if you are not... But it is good to know if you make jokes or speak seriously.
