  Hawkaw made the following statement on the "Re: UNITED NATIONS , NGO's and WTBS" discussion:
  

  "So uh if she as a JW got up in front of the the hall and stated that she voluntarily solicited a department of the United Nations and became "associated" and a "partner" of the United Nations to distribute UN literature that promotes the UN and
  as part of the agreement he/she VOLUNTARILY agreed to support the United Nations charter knowing full well that Jehovah God says its a "sin" based on the Oct 1/95 WT and many more articles put out by the Governing Body , just what the hell would happen??"

  I have seen it mentioned in other places as well, but can't seem to locate the quote.

  a few months ago, i heard about the organization putting out some specific guidelines for what was considered to be appropriate entertainment for the r&f.

  i seem to remember the simpsons being a big no-no.

  is anyone familiar with this?

  God gave us His Word so we could know how to live and serve Him. The Bible claims to contain all we need to "be thoroughly equipped for every good work" (II Tim. 3:16-17). We CAN understand the Bible without an organization, priest, or other man-made hierarchy interpreting it for us. Therefore it is vital that each one study the Bible for himself/herself, to understand God's Will and correctly handle the word of truth (II Tim. 2:15).
  In my opinion, the church of Christ is the closest thing to the church we read about in the first century. If we follow the directions God has given us, He will be pleased with the end result.
