Watchtower = Elders can disfellowship people for being too FAT!!! Has this happened?

by Witness 007 in

watch 1974 p.167 "by disobediently overindulging in food and making a glutton of himself, he fails to show love for jehovah...if in the presence of others does he selfishly ignore there needs and take more than his share?

is he grossly overwieght but shows no restraint at all as to food, habitually gorging himself?

does he feel un-comfortable, perhaps even sick because of eating too much ...glutton has no place in god's congregation...they will not inherit god's kingdom...".

not to my knowledge, well there was 500 lb elder in other congregation in my circuit some years ago. He was always upbeat and smiling all the time. He died from Heart Attack. FYI.

Announcing who is "sick?"

by InterestedOne in

i have a newbie question: i've noticed the elder announces the name of someone who is in the hospital, then he announces a bunch of names of other people who are "sick.

" is this one of those jw-isms where a word can have two meanings: physically sick or "spiritually" sick?

is this a way that elders announce the names of people who might be involved in "sins?

Iamallcool

No, they would not say so so is spiritually sick. They can only announce public reproof or disfellowshipping of "spiritually sick" individuals. Thats it.

Another "Generation" Talk Straight Form the Horse's Mouth

by Yan Bibiyan in

i freaking love the web.

this one is "old light", albeit only 2 years old.. speaker is gerrit losch at the 2008 hawaii convention at ~46:30 gerrit confidently explains that the "generation" is indeed the anointed on earth.

no overlapping, no exodus 1:6, no scmenticapelli.. if you can stomach the talk, there are other pearls in there about different elements of the great tribulation and what they mean.
