Some may call me an optimist, but I beleive that Mankind will live forever, and our unique planet will sustain us for a very long time.

The GB are really going out on a limb with this DF decision

by Quarterback in

this is how a do explained the family business policy re relatives of df/da members.. he said that the expression, "necessary family business," is really not a scriptural term.

it is nowhere found in the bible.

but, out of the kindness of the gb's hearts, they have gone beyond what is written and allowed association among families for necessary business.

When you read that article in the WT, it looks like they are trying to spin it.

It seems like they are trying to remove it away. What does it really mean? They have never defined it. They have left it up to the imaginations of those poor individuals that are in that situation. When these ones try to make sense of it they are accused of using that, "Family Business", as an excuse.

It's a kindof tough rule to obey. It goes against the rules of humane dignity.

"we must be ready to obey, even if it doesnt sound reasonable from a human standpoint"

by stuckinarut2 in

so its now all clear!.

the reason why that damned wt article several months back said the quote:.

"we may be asked to do something by jehovahs organization, and we should be ready to obey even if it doesnt seem reasonable from a human standpoint or not".

I wish that the News would pick-up on this. Headlines such as: " JW's pay membership fees". "The GB Takes from one hand, and gives to the other hand."

I wonder how those receiving Social Assistance can justify signing a pledge form

This "Necessary Family Business", is so vague. It is never defined, just warnings for using it. It is open to the interpretation of so many, and it causes so much controversies.

First of all I think that the policy of DF is way off.

But, out of the kindness of the GB's hearts, they have gone beyond what is written and allowed association among families for necessary business. The GB are not sure if this viewpoint was the right thing to do, but, they hope that Jehovah will be merciful with them and understand.

Aren't they compassionate?

Now, don't you start abusing that.

Is it true that the GB is soon planning on ditching the 1914 doctrine?

by yogosans14 in

or atleast tweaking it again... apparently there has been rumors of this coming out of bethel.

Haven't you heard? 1941 is the new 1914
