  'church elders are told to report any allegations of child sexual abuse to the authorities immediately'

  by was a new boy in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  'the spokesperson also said that church elders are told to report any allegations of child sexual abuse to the authorities immediately, even if there is only one complainant.'.

  https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/rebekah-vardy-sexually-abused-child-jehovahs-witnesses/.

  is this true?

  NOPE!! TOTALLY FAKE!!

  I 'phoned Britain Branch today and the obfuscation started from the word 'go.'

  The "brother" said (after seeking advice for nearly 10 minutes!!!) that he couldn't "verify" who had given the quote to the BBC. I didn't ask him who gave the quote, I asked him if it was true.

  He told me to type in "child protection" on the Borg's web site, and said I would find all the information on what the org had to say about the subject.

  When I read out this sentence to him, "When elders learn of an accusation of child abuse, they immediately consult with the branch office of Jehovah’s Witnesses to ensure compliance with child abuse reporting laws," and I said that there was no mention of elders reporting to the police, he just repeated that he couldn't "verify" the source of the quote. In other words he was saying, "I know the org is employing spiritual warfare lying to the BBC.

  .....wouldn't get the Org to tell JW's to desist from preaching:

  "THREAT OF MOB VIOLENCE Perehinske. On 26 March 2019, Roman Balahura, a local priest, assembled a mob and threatened 10 Witnesses with violence, forcing them to stop their religious activity and to leave the village. Although the police were called to the scene, investigations did not begin until three weeks later. The perpetrator has not been charged. In the past the same priest has assaulted Jehovah’s Witnesses, but he has never been charged or punished." (JW- submitted OSCE document)

  But a few months later, the health authorities in that country had the G.B. bending over backwards to stop JW's preaching and to stop meeting together - because of a flu-type virus!

  So much for Hebrews 10:25 - ". . .not forsaking our meeting together,....but encouraging one another, and all the more so as you see the day drawing near," and Acts 5:29 “We must obey God as ruler rather than men."

  VoIP stands for Voice Over Internet Protocol, which is when voice calls are made over the internet, and will replace your traditional PSTN telephone connection.

  Your PSTN line, or landline, will be switched off at the end of December 2025, along with all other fixed lines, which includes broadband, will no longer be available.

  Colossian 1:16 - "all OTHER things"

  by aqwsed12345 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  due to their apparent theological bias, the watchtower shamelessly inserts the word "other" in order to "make room" for their own idea that jesus is also a created being.

  it is clear that jehovah's witnesses try to avoid having to admit that christ created everything because "the one who constructed all things is god" (hebrews 3:4).

  instead, the society teaches that "christ was the only one created by god," and that then he "created everything else with jehovah.

  @ aqwsed - This question assumes that you completely agree with the following statements quoted on a different site: "Jesus Christ is not just a man. Even when He walked on the earth, He was not merely a man. He was God in the form of man – God clothed in human flesh"

  Question: If Jesus was God on earth, why did He lie to His faithful servant Moses, and then 1500 years later allow the Pharisees to to see Him in a physical form?

  (Exodus 33:20) But he [God] added: “You cannot see my face, for no man can see me and live.”

  "Apostasy"

  by Zilgee in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the so called apostates of first century later became the catholic church.

  these apostates like saint athanasius, theologian, ecclesiastical statesman, and egyptian national leader decided which books would be part of the bible.

  we are now following what they decided.

  I used to have discussions/debates with someone who continually referred to "the early church fathers," so I did a wee bit of research on them. Turns out they weren't at all in agreement with each other and seemed hell-bent on dictating doctrinal policy.

  Whenever a good business opportunity presents itself, some grand fromage wants to control it. Christianity became a lucrative gravy-train, created by Rome and greatly expanded by Mr. Luther, Mr. Russell, et al.

  ...for everything else, there's Mastercard!

  (1 Peter 3:15) ". . .always ready to make a defense before everyone who demands of you a reason for the hope you have, but doing so with a mild temper and deep respect."
  

  JW's paranoia doesn't allow them to defend their beliefs.

  Were 1st century converts told to knock on doors?

  by BoogerMan in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  acts chapter 2 clearly shows (in jw minds) that door-door preaching was a must for all converts.

  (acts 2:37, 38, 41, 42) “now when they heard this, they were stabbed to the heart, and they said to peter and the rest of the apostles: “men, brothers, what should we do?” peter said to them: “repent, and let each one of you be baptized in the name of jesus christ for forgiveness of your sins, but also, preach to others by knocking on their doors.

  ...and on that day about 3,000 people were added.

  @ Bartolomeo - You're 100% correct - no Bible whatsoever contains the underlined words.
  

  Just as no other Bible or Greek concordance offer the phrases, "exercise/excercised/exercising faith," or "undeserved kindness."
