  this morning i was trying to think of what you used to call that that method of field service were we bounced all over the the territory map hitting calls that were distanced far apart to waste time.

  there was a funny term you called it at the kh but i can't remember.. i'm posting this instead of private message because someone else may know.. .

  Elders Can Hide their Own Sins from the Past-Yet Continue as Elders? Read

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was shocked ( though i probably shouldn't have been ) when reading the new elders manual concerning whether elders have to confess up about former sins from a few years earlier.

  notice this on pg.

  38 , paragraph 19 : it states, " if it comes to light or an appointed brother confesses that he has committed a disfellowshipping offense years in the past : the body of elders may determine he can continue to serve if the following is true : the immorality or other serious wrongdoing occured more than a few years ago, and he is genuinely repentant, recognizing that he should have come forward immediately when he sinned.

  Sir 82 - That is exactly right. Commit the sin, keep it quiet for a couple of years, come forward with sorrow and you are golden! Jesus wrote a blank check. This is exactly why the book is top secret.

  In practice though, if you are a publisher and come forward you will get a committee meeting. I have seen a number of instances where a young couple does the deed before marriage, hides it for 7-10 years and still gets a JC.

  Here are some taglines

  "Are you feeling old? 1969- Awake- " Face the fact that you will never grow old in this old system"

  Ask your elders how many pedophiles are in your congregation.

  Jehovah wants to see double digits on that time slip. You are not a faithful servant of God unless you spend at least 10 hrs a month driving from one empty house to another. Results don't matter, its the appearance of effort that does. And if you are an elder or a servant make sure that your service is visible so the other friends know you are setting an example. Don't go out on Friday when no one else does. Make sure you go out on Saturday morning when everyone can see you "pray in the broadway"

  I had an argument about exactly this last night. It makes me sick that our perceived worth as god's worshipers doesn't have anything to do about the way we live or read the bible or pray. Instead it is all about time!

  by Smoky in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i sent a .pdf to a few friends and one of them betrayed me and forward it to a elder i know, along with the emails of the recipients.

  i cant believe i was so naive to think that i can trust someone..stupid.

  i have not talked to the "benedict arnold" yet, but hopefully soon.

  I had a conversation with a dear relative lately. I read portions of the sheperding book especially about when elders commit sins and possible reappointment of a pedo. Don't underestimate the damage that the publicizing of the sheperding book can have. This person is the most faithful person I know.

  These were some of his comments:

  What! that is crazy!

  Talk about acting like Pharisees.

  This will lead to complete corruption within the organizations appointed men.

  In the last 10 years they have really gotten more controlling and dogmatic.

  Sounds like there is a child molester on the Governing Body

  I hope a ton of elders see this and resign.

  Now I understand why the book is supposed to be top secret

  just saw this posted on watchtower uncensored .... .

  want to hear the latest debacle?

  the po in my mom's congregation told them that at the next 1-day-assembly it will be the responsibility of every publisher to put 3 in the box towards the running costs at the assembly hall.

  The circuits also pay for the CO's and DO's apartments, medical, fuel etc. I don't think the society is covering those costs anymore.

  Hi Ding, or Randy,

  Can you provide me with the reference to the WT article denouncing false prophets, saying that the faliure of their prophecies proved that Jehovah wasn't guiding or using them?

  Thanks

  Will there ever be another defection from the GB?

  by stuckinamovement in

  2. friends

  ray franz decided to leave bethel and the governing body because he could not continue to promote or support the lies and half truths that were being told.

  do you think that it is possible that one of the new boys might actually grow a pair of balls and stand up for what is true and reject what is false?.

  there are so many doctrines that time has annulled.
