  l thought this would be an interesting exercise to read the different responses.

  my question is what makes you think your gods chosen medium?and prove it.

  It requires 2 elders to sit down together, read the Bible and literature to determine that what a brother is wearing is inappropriate. Then it takes to elders to make arrangements to speak to the brother on the matter.
  Someone needs to tell them that worrying about a neatly dressed brother should be the least of their worries.
  The GB should have a look at their old photos and compare how they were dressed then to how they are dressed today. It will be obvious that they have been ollowing wordly trends.

  Who Picks The Governing Body?

  hey everyone,.

  just a simple straight forward question on exactly what the process is.

  if a gb member died tomorrow, do the remaining ones choose who gets to be next?.

  Out of the current 7 GB members, I believe only one (Morris) has had children. These guys are appointed leaders and have had no experience in raising children.

  What she did was bad but you forgave her, I think it is disgusting that the elders disfellowshipped her and subjected her to shunning. This must have been extremely hard for her to deal with and for you to watch.
  You've got every reason to think little of the Elders, it seems all the trouble you have had to deal with has had an elder involved.

  If you've never had children your chances of being selected are far greater.

  It amazes me that you can forgive your wife but the Elders still find her unrepentant.
  Your wife should not be divulging private information to her father, why is she doing this? It seems like she neither trusts you or respects you but maybe she is just a very insecure person (given her confiding to another Elder and seeking support from her father).

  I love how Tony Morris' tight pants talk only made it to pictures and even 16 months on, it is still a problem and given the article has been prepared 6 months in advance, they think it will still be a problem in the future.
  What a pity they didn't show a picture of the Elders counseling a Sister wearing spandex, or even better, spanx.

  "New light"?

  https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/watchtower-study-june-2016/man-with-inkhorn/.

  so i guess baptism is no longer the "mark for survival".. as a matter of fact, that key aspect of the 'old light' is not even acknowledged in this article.. they are just publishing new understanding without even bothering to explain the full extent of the change, hoping nobody will remember how it was... and they may be right about that..

  Good pick up Londo. The man with the inkhorn used to be the anointed. Now all of the anointed, other than the GB are demoted once again, they are just domestics along with the GC.
