  You don't talk about dogma, that will get you straight into a battle which is un-winnable, anything counter the official line is considered apostasy.

  Make it about THEM personally. Tell them you were stumbled by an elder saying something or doing something and that you can't be in a congregation that claims to have Jehovah's spirit but keeps someone like him in the congregation.

  Not sure if you know about any 'mishaps', perhaps a child abuse story in the news, or someone who is universally known to be abusive towards his wife and kids, could even be in the circuit. Every congregation has a set of people that are generally disliked but don't do anything "disfellowship-worthy", that goes for elders and everyone too. Even better if it's a CO that's a little too friendly and touches 'sisters' on the shoulder.

  You could combine this with saying you don't feel the spirit in the congregation anymore, that the elders are allowing some vague mishap (reference to an action from someone above) with someone in the congregation or the circuit and that Jehovah no longer gives the spirit in your congregation or circuit and thus you have stopped going. Keep it vague but believable, ask them to review whether they are still considered good shepherds, tell them that's why Jehovah is punishing them and why the congregation attendance has dropped and your state is doing so bad with COVID.

  Disfellowshipped for NOT activating my camera on ZOOM meeting

  by Aleph in

  hey so i won't go too much into the details though there would be so much more to say....in a nutshell, you are repentant but not enough so we disfellowship you ....i asked, can you clarified this "not enough repentant" please ?as one of the reason of not being repentant : " you didn't put on your camera during zoom meetings !!!

  " they yelled at me, like a bunch of wolves against a sheep....so :.

  - no scriptural basis.- abuse of power.- my phone can't handle to have its camera on more than 20 minutes.then they yelled " jehovah does want you in the congregation" !like you are not welcome here....strangely to me, isaiah 1:18 and the story of the prodigal son tells a complete different story....well the whole bible is about love forgiveness and repentance !!

  From what I understand he wasn't disfellowshipped for fornication, he was reproved for fornication but the elders obviously saw that him not having his camera on (perhaps to make sure no women were present) was sufficient to show he was not repentant.

  Either way, they judge your repentance to God, they are the intercessor to God on your behalf, not Jesus, not even the GB, the elders are.

  This is what will happen:

  Trump will win - then Democrats will find more mail-in ballots

  -or

  The election will be contested by Democrat governors in places like Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, what happens then is that Pelosi can basically make up whatever election rules she wants.

  -or-

  The election will go to the Supreme Court who will break with precedent and the majority (all center-left-wing) will vote for Democrats.

  Either way Trump will win, but Democrats will steal the election. Hopefully the Republicans will finally stand up for their rights, the way Kyle Rittenhouse did.

  Does Anybody Here Sympathize With The Looters That Cause Destruction?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i realize some here are diehard democrats.

  whether you are democrat, republican or independent, do you support any of these looters that cause mayhem and destruction for their cause?

  i have heard some people sympathize with these law breakers saying they understand why they do what they do and leave it at that.. of course i wonder how they would feel if their own property was burnt or stolen or destroyed..

  @Peeringin: You are right, some people, especially blacks, have been made to believe that the law does not apply to them, going in both directions.

  This is a result from decades of voter miseducation by left-wing politicians. You can't tear down the system if you don't have a boogeyman that requires tearing down the system.

  If BLM and DNC believed what they say and the system is corrupted to the bone, then why are they trying to get Biden elected at all? The people that believe in these lies and are willingly joining left-wing terrorists and think it is a good cause, will realize that as soon as 'their person' is in office, these problems all go away.

  If BLM believes that systemic racism was a thing, why did Obama not save them? Why did Clinton not save them? Why does the governor in California or New York never solve the problems in their state? They have a captive audience in NY and CA, they have ALL the lawmakers on the left for years, yet the supposed symptoms of "systemic racism" are the worst in those states.

  Why Does It Seem That Black People Are Always Being Shot By The Police?

  there is either a conspiracy against blacks in this country and police are out to get them or it’s that they are getting caught breaking the law and often times refuse to obey police authority.

  The case that Breonna Taylor was not involved in drug dealing is a myth. Matter of fact, after the recent leaks in the investigation, the boyfriend has been arrested for possession. Taylor has been receiving drug packages at the address, hence the warrant.

  The timeline is clear from the investigation, the boyfriend was receiving drug packages, Taylor was not asleep, not shot in bed, the warrants were present, they knocked on the door, even though it was a no-knock, they announced they were police, broke down the door and then the shooting started.

  there's a bedroom door on the right and there's a male and a female. The male is closest to the door, so to my right, and I turned the doorway he's in a stretched out position with his hands, with a gun, and as soon as I clear he fires

  This all happens about midnight, he shot and injured an officer, he then holed up, it required the mom to ask the boyfriend to come out, he finally surrenders to SWAT a little before 1am - his girlfriend bled out on the floor because he didn’t want to go to jail.

  @trillaz: Breonna Taylor was a legitimate shoot, she was a drug dealer, together with her boyfriend, who shot at the police when they had a legal warrant. Breonna Taylor case is getting more and more murky as more evidence is revealed, we were told she was an innocent bystander shot in her bed by the cops, as if they came in a room, standing over her sleeping and then shot her for no reason. Now it comes out she is a not-so-innocent drug dealer shot in the hallway of their apartment with her boyfriend in the same hallway while in a shootout with the cops. She could've been unarmed and innocent, but she certainly wasn't intent on hiding away. If anyone, the boyfriend is responsible for her death and should go down for murder 2.

  Ahmaud Arbury was not a police shoot but appears to have been justified as well, hence there was no prosecution for months on end. From the first video it appears to just be a white guy shooting a black guy for no reason, in the second video you see a scuffle after a citizens arrest, and after the first guy goes down, he goes after the second guy who shoots him. It seems they had no legal standing to make the citizens arrest, but there seems to be some wrongdoing on the part of Ahmaud and a claim of self defense, possibly this turns it murder 3 or aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, but murder 1 or 2 will be hard to claim.

  Same for George Floyd and Michael Brown, there is a narrative, but when additional evidence comes out, it's not publicized and people keep harping on the original story which are entirely falsified. Michael Brown was investigated three times, second time by the Obama DOJ, and then once again by a new AG who was elected with the agenda of putting the cops in jail and even he couldn't find sufficient evidence to charge anything.

  Same goes for Kyle Rittenhouse by the way, legitimate self-defense shoot from the video, he may have a weapons charge (although the second amendment should be sufficient here).

  It's good, since I don't watch pro sports and they'll be hurting for cash pretty quickly. Off course the BLM leaders aren't going to be hurting for cash, people like LeBron James, who is instigating the NBA to cancel, is worth $1B

  Yes, he's in the top 0.001% of Americans, along with a disproportionate amount of blacks in the NBA making more than a million per year.

  The person it is going to hurt is the black inner city kid that got a scholarship and a 1 year contract during which he has to show his skill and get hired by a team. If he's not playing, he's not getting that contract or scholarship and his knees will be shot for the rest of his life in a last ditch attempt to get Biden elected.

  @Betheliesalot: That may be true, but whites are less likely to commit a crime.

  So in the form of crime statistics, you're almost 50% more likely to be shot if you're a white committing a crime vs a black committing a crime. It's even worse if you are Asian, who are shot while committing a crime twice as likely as blacks.

  According to research, there are an estimated 15-20 million Jehovah's Witnesses in the world, those that declare themselves to be JW in surveys and other methods of counting.

  Obviously those aren't "active" which is the way the borg is counting, thus they have a peak rate and an average rate that is wildly divergent.
