Were You Ever Interrogated By The Elders?

some elders enjoy giving the business to the lowly flock thru intimidation.

.

some love to ask you to enter with them into the "backroom".. of course, there were many that never had run-ins with the shepherds because they were under the radar.. did you ever get interrogatted by the elders and if so, how did it go??

XBEHERE

Yes, the first time I was deleted as an elder. If I had TTATT I would not have accepted re-appointment a year later. Basically I was told that I wasnt visible enough in the ministry and I was missing meetings. They couldn't crack open the bible and explain with any logic how or why that would disqualify me but I understood the underlying agenda. I had an argument the previous CO who was good friends with the then Presiding Overseer and a couple of other elders. It was an argument that I won because I called the branch and he was wrong. Long story short, he took revenge on me and got it. Shit happens, I moved on.

Elders suck!

im very sad, upset and disappointed all at the same time.

why couldnt i just stay away from this dam forum and live my life and blindly dedicated it to the borg.

now i know ttatt, i cant ignore all the facts and all the stories of the great people in this forum.

" Do I just ignore everything and live a happy blinded life? "

This is the route I chose and I dont reccomend it. But I do understand why myself and others do it. From experience, it isnt healthy and it eventually will catch up to you. I have started to tell my wife things here and there i.e. Jeremiah books sucks which she agrees with. Also we agree in the fact that "wordly" people are nice and accetable associates. However she is still after me to study with the kids! So brainwashing runs deep. I eventually will just let it all out and it may happen sooner than later. Good luck with whatever you choose to do.

My, my, times have changed...

questions from readers?

why does not the watchtower society publish simplified material for parents to use in teaching their children bible truths?.

-a question based upon frequent inquiries by readers.. jehovah god lays upon the parents themselves the responsibility of teaching their children.

XBEHERE

Funny how they wash their hands of training children but then turn around and use the Family Study Night as a litmus strip for if you and your spouse deserve everlasting life or not. Yet they are the GREAT and MIGHTY F&DS, gods chosen ones to lead his people in the "time of the end" lol... really?

Who's the biggest WT villian? Russell/Rutherford/Knorr/Franz?

by Las Malvinas son Argentinas in

mine is rutherford.

the bible student movement of russell was badly splintered after the usurpation and was destined to fade away like the other russellite movements.

then judge joe decides to rebrand with 'jehovah's witnesses' and concieves of many different schemes designed to put his people into danger and gaining publicity for a sect that no one really thought about any more.

XBEHERE

Franz. Most responsible for the doctrines, in particular the ramping up of the disfellowshipping/Disassociating doctrines. These keep so many, myself included, in bondage living a lie for family sake.

New Explanation On United Nations Membership From Circuit Overseer.

by ÁrbolesdeArabia in

i had the chance to speak with a circuit overseer, he was not my circuit overseer and it was my chance to get the offical party line why the watchtower joined the united nations.. .

"are you a jehovah witness he asked me?

(theocratical warfare allows lies according to the gb!

XBEHERE

Maybe the Watchtower only used "fractions" of their NGO status, and not the four main components.

lol..

Your relative is either the Assembly Overseer, his assistant, DO/CO or you are a pioneer succubus that likes to eat s*it out of the asses of the aforementioned people.

Disgusted with JW Funeral Today!

by time2keepmoving in

my son grew up with one of the young brothers in the kingdom and after graduation both him and my son left the kh.

the young man who left the hall fell into the wrong crowd and i mean a really dangerous crowd and as a result of him getting involved in illegal activity he was murdered.

i really feel for this young man, because he was a decent kid.

XBEHERE

they don't invest a dime in the youth, nothing!

Not trying to hijack this thread, this comment really deserves its own, but I think that this is a major issue with the WTS. They relegate any and all bible instruction to the parents (father really). If this is the case then why force the parents to waste hours in meetings, ministry, assemblies, conventions, etc. Take that all away and allow parents to raise their kids.

If they can't give parents their time back then how about after the public talk, designate an elder to go in the library and discuss a topic easy for kids to understand and that is relateable to them. So simple yet they dont want to be "mainstreaming it" you know Sunday School. So stupid this religion and they wonder why they are bleeding kids left and right.
