  @Bribie

  Our attendance at the memorial shows a deep respect and thankfulness for what Jesus did for us.

  What is it you are to do in remembrance of him?

  Isn’t it to share in the communion meal?

  How does rejecting the bread and the wine show anything but disrespect and dishonour of what “Jesus did for us”?

  No doubt you’ve been conditioned to believe that it’s not for you but nowhere in the NT does it tell you to reject the bread and the wine.

  Oh, by the way, welcome aboard here, I’m sure you’ll soon learn that there is much to learn about “The Truth”TM, in fact the truth about The Truth.

  Slim:

  But it still doesn’t explain why the statement disappeared.

  was there a rogue bethelite at work?

  or did the other GB members get it taken down when they learned of it?

  Quite mysterious, even for the borg

  I think that the problem is that there is a governing body at all.

  There is no problem, there is no evidence for a Watchtower inspired governing body at all.

  Reading the scriptural record in Luke’s Acts of the Apostles we read that there was a dispute between the church of Antioch and the church in Jerusalem. Judaizers from Jerusalem had visited Antioch and sought to impose adherence to Judaizer compliance.

  The church in Antioch sent Paul and Barnabas to the church in Jerusalem to seek a resolution.

  The record in Acts clearly records what occurred.

  The Watchtower Org (Borg) has distorted the NTrecord to reinforce their teaching of a governing body authorority.

  The truth is that there never was a governing body.

  Tony Morris has inherited a position that can only be traced back to the mid 2000’s; even the popes of Rome have more history!

  I’ve read some old threads in the forum and he became WAY more offended by SIGNIFICANTLY less offensive comments relating to him and/or his wife.

  Funny that, ain’t it? !

  He speaks as a very thin-skinned guy.

  I’d like to be surprised that Lloyd talked about masturbation ….. but I’m not.

  Seems to me that he’s got quite a hangup about it…oh wait, didn’t he proclaim he’s sexually repressed?

  I believe in a creator because to me evolution just can’t be true. But I think the Witnesses are wrong about many things about the Bible, but maybe they are one of the closest to the truth I can’t think of any other organisations closer to what the Bible says

  G’day,

  Glad to ‘hear’ you’re on the road to freedom !

  I’ve been ‘out’ for almost thirty years now but family and adult children are still ‘in’.

  I wouldn’t presume to impose my views on you but simply encourage you to keep searching.

  One thing I would like to say is that looking for an organisation is a fallacy. The Borg conditions the R&F to think in those terms.

  Rather it’s the individual coming to Christ ( for a christian) not to an organisation.

  After a while, you’ll realise that it has nothing to do with what church you belong to but what you personally believe.

  It’s the spellbinders over at the Watchtower who want you to think otherwise.

  Anyway, my best wishes on your journey.

  Cheers,

  Ozzie🍷

  i can’t add more than what Fisherman posted.

  Jesus spoke of the ‘log in our own eye’ (you know the parable) and it is well known that he (Tony Morris) had a troubled background. Who would wish to have the experiences he came through?

  Yes, he later promoted and benefited from an evil empire but given some compassion we can at least understand why he came to be a mouthpiece for such an oppressive regime.

  May God have mercy and may Morris find peace (a peace that has nothing to do with the WTS).
