(revelation 11:11,12)11 and after the three and a half days spirit of life from god entered into them, and they stood upon their feet, and great fear fell upon those beholding them.

12 and they heard a loud voice out of heaven say to them: come on up here.

and they went up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies beheld them.. .

DO Brown Payne tells SA audience Serena Williams "disciplined" by her local elders for swearing on TV

by oppostate in

at today's special assembly in natick ma, bro brown payne annouced to the audience that serena williams was disciplined by her local elders for her swearing escapade on tv.. saying: "can jehovah's witnesses swear like that on tv?

" then he told the audience that she was "disciplined" by the elders of the congregation she's a publisher in.. doesn't this smack of revealing the private business of another person?

the most the local elders could have said was "a matter concerning serena williams has been handled by the elder body".

So the transcript of that meeting with the Elders started like this, " Well, sister Williams. What the "F" were you thinking of." "This F.....g mouth of yours have to F.....g be controlled." "Bad speech" must be avoided at all costs. Why are you grinning? There you go again lauging at my Touret's Syndrome again".

the wt for today, can't remember exactly what paragraph, stated the dangers of the tongue.

it went further to mention that we wouldn't want to question the motives of a sister who was appointed in the congregation as a pioneer.

there was even a picture to add emphasis.. who on earth questions that?

I can't remember....do we announce it when someone stops pioneering?

Who on earth questions that? Usually the comments made behind someone's back are:

Why is that sister working full-time?

Why doesn't that sister pioneer?

Why doesn't that sister's husband retire already? Aren't their children moved out?

Why would that sister seek higher education?

Why does that sister dress like a slut?

I guess our tongues find these questions acceptable.
