I am certain that all elders and some m/s depending on their duties ought to have an enhanced disclosure under new legislation.
Perhaps somebody needs to mention this to the new Independent Safeguarding Agency? The legislation also applies to working with vulnerable adults.
and the bible again was right.... all the ones who are familiarized, with the bible know about the nephilim.
as related in the bible, these man of ancient times, apparently descenced from the heavens (they were angels), having been atracted by women on the earth....for that reason they took form of men, abandoning their original spiritual nature.
that bible account, leaves many perplexed, which is very understandable, if you don t believe in god, but now archaeologist, have found rest of abnormal big skeletons....what at least make you think of the accuracy of the bible.. .

Here is a link to the special effects competition they had called archaeological anomalies
Some really good work by some clever people but not evidence for nephilim

Have you any source for this?
based on their new defintion of a "generation" from the 4/15/2010 wt, that is:.
understand jesus words about this generation?.
he evidently meant that the lives of the anointed.
That seems like inescapable logic Sir82 - I know most will not join the dots but I think at least some will throw in the towel over this same as many of us did in 95
i have some in laws who recently went to haiti to do "missionary" work at one of the churches there.
this "missionary" work basically consisted of singing and dancing and entertaining the church goers.
my relatives stayed at some houses owned by the church on the church property.
That sort of self-satisfied arrogance is really nauseating.
Smacks more of Stockholm syndrome than anything most of us would identify as love

Welcome Paulapollos. Hope you are adjusting well to life on the outside?
If and when you feel ready it would be interesting to know more of your story. What was life like at the London branch?
best wishes, cofty (aka Bill Blyth former elder Berwick-on-Tweed)

The charity commission report is stating that congregations ought to require a Criminal Records check on all volunteers who work with children and young people.
This is now a matter of law in the UK and includes all volunteers. This is going to give them a massive admin task of getting checks completed on elders and M/S. I wonder how many will fail the checks? Lets hope the agency requires this of all appointees in every congregation, it remains to be seen.
As a football coach and club secretary I know keeping up with the legal requirements for volunteer staff is a big challenge. I can see lots of potential here for problems for congregations in UK
35. In charities where the trustees (and others, including volunteers) have direct contact with users who are vulnerable (for example, by reason of their age or mental health), more vigorous background checks to ensure their suitability may be necessary. All charity trustees have a duty of care and a duty to act solely in the interests of their charity. The Commission considers charity trustees risk being in breach of these duties if they fail without good reason to carry out appropriate CRB checks when they are entitled to do so. In some circumstances such failures may be viewed as evidence of misconduct and / or mismanagement in the administration of the charity. It is also a criminal offence in some circumstances for someone to offer certain positions working with children to someone who is disqualified from doing so. A CRB check is a reliable way of knowing whether a person has convictions which mean he/she is disqualified from acting in certain positions with children in charities and/or whether there are factors which the trustees ought to take into account in assessing their suitability to be involved in the charity.
