  Administering a Blood Transfusion When Directed by a Superior- Jehovah's Witness Policy

  by Ron.W. in

  administering a blood transfusion when directed by a superior - jehovah's witness policy effective june 15th, 2018. while the hospital liasion committee elders were instructed that they may inform doctors and nurses of this decision, this letter was not allowed to be distributed to anyone outside of hlc members.. as a result of the concealment of this letter, and by virtue of the fact that this information was only to be shared verbally with jehovah's witness medical professionals and others, confusion erupted across the united states and in other branch offices of jehovah's witnesses.

  countless letters were received at watchtower headquarters in new york from concerned jw nurses, paramedics, and others who were instructed verbally on this new policy, but which contradicted existing written policy that had been in effect for many decades.. in addition to letters from witness medical professionals, circuit overseers in the field wrote to the us branch and hospital information desk in new york about the problems caused by this unreleased policy.

  for example, south carolina circuit overseer brandon roberts reported to headquarters that "the majority of the nurses in our circuit were not aware of this updated policy.

  I thought it was Geoffrey Jackson most recently married.

  Geoff Jackson's wife (Jenny) died in 2009 of breast cancer and he married her Bethel co-worker Loraine. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/library/r1/lp-e/all-publications/watchtower/the-watchtower-2015/study-edition/august-15

  Is he 38 years old...that seems to be a thing now.

  I doubt it, he was baptised in 1975.

  No beards...even Jesus! Strange Watchower rule for brothers!

  by Witness 007 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  watchtower 1954 p.511 "why do watchtower publications now show jesus with short hair and no beard?

  because he is shown that way in older representations of him that are older then the traditional effeminate looking pictures.".

  watchtower 1968 p.286 "bible evidence and a recent review shows that jesus did have a beard..." charles russell style of beard was popular at bethel...till rutherford took over.

  We're going back to KH's.

  No we are not.

  Yes we are....

  One thing the WT Society is good at is FLIP FLOPS.

  Seems like there is different input from GB

  Just received a copy of announcement (12-03-22) from Atlantis and friends saying just that. The announcement on jw.org Newsroom has disappeared however. Probably a case of the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing. Or even the left hand for that matter.

  We had a letter read at the mid-week meeting asking if any brothers have spare property the WT Society can use. It is for LDC members and possibly displaced brothers. Any empty property including holiday homes or annexes but must be in good condition.

  Also spare capacity in home though the head of the house must decide on the risk to any elderly/vulnerable in the household.

  If there is still a risk, which of course there is, why even ask. No mention of rental rates of course!

  but that only proves the accusation that the Borg is too USA centric.

  Exactly. It is not over here in England and hopefully the Branch Office will use some common sense before allowing KH meetings to resume. Regionally, here in the SE the infection rate and death rate has been well above the national average all the time the GOV.UK site has been reporting statistics.

  Last night people at the ZOOM meeting were ecstatic about getting back until the congregation secretary reminded them we may not be back by 1st April, it depends on direction from the branch office. That did little to quell the excitement however.

  Atlantis provided the two files on hybrid meetings and I think that is the way forward for the future. The young and fit can go to the KH and hug each other all they want. Those of us older and wiser (?) can stay at home with a cup of cocoa!

  Anyone else remember the Awake saying this?

  by BottanicPepper in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i may have put this in the wrong thread.

  if so, i'm sorry.. my conundrum is this.... i am almost completely certain that an awake back in the 80's/90's mentioned a group of rock bands we shouldn't listen to and i seem to remember them actually naming guns and roses.. i can't find anything now, and i'm wondering if it's the mandela effect, or if it's another case of the cdrom versions of the awakes being doctored again.. does anyone else remember this?

  or am i crazy?

  AXL ROSE is an anagram of ORAL SEX

  (He is lead singer of G & R for anyone unfamiliar with the group) Knocking on Heaven's Door - Live Paris 1992 probably one of my all time favourite tracks.
