to train children
to be instructed or taught or learn
to cause one to learn
to chastise
to chastise or castigate with words, to correct
of those who are moulding the character of others by reproof and admonition
of God
to chasten by the affliction of evils and calamities
to chastise with blows, to scourge
of a father punishing his son
of a judge ordering one to be scourged
Take your pick as to how "discipline" should be interpreted from theGreek.

Since God is loving, why will God send people to hell?
by Longlivetherenegades injehovah’s witnesses believe via russell..... a god that would use his power to create human beings whom he foreknew and predestinated should be eternally tormented, could neither be wise, just nor loving.
his standards would be lower than that of many men....mankind search for god pg 351. hebrews 12: 8 for the lord disciplines those he loves, and he punishes each one he accepts as his child.
for reasoning sake, does russell argument holds here since even those god sees as children and god loves are disciplined or punished?.

UPDATE: Telephoned the Public Information Department of the Britain Branch of JW's.
Asked them:
a) Is the story true?
Response: "I can't comment on a story I haven't read. Send us an email with your questions."
b) Does the org still own the building?
Response: "If you send us an email with your questions, we will consider them."
Public Information Department???????? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He was more concerned with finding out who I was, rather than answering questions from the public.
If a registered charity responds like that, perhaps the Charity Commission should review their charity status.

It's one thing the media putting out fake stories, but when ex-JW's copy & paste them into "apostate" forums, it merely gives the cult ammunition to use against those of us who have woken up.

I suspect this is FAKE NEWS and should be deleted.
There ISN'T a Branch in Ireland - it was sold off several years ago and Ireland is now under the U.K. Branch.

The Watchtower Society Hedge Fund
by TJ Curioso inthe watchtower society hedge fundseveral weeks ago it came to my attention via the e-jehovahs-witnesses discussion board that the watchtower society had devised a new money raising scheme.
the scheme is to beg and borrow money from each individual congregation account, which they deem to be in excess of the congregation's actual expenses.
i half jokingly responded to the topic then that the watchtower has become a hedge fund.

@ St George of England - You said, "Years of incompetent government has allowed this to happen."
I respectfully disagree; the UK situation has nothing to do with incompetence.
The whole
refugee crisiseconomic migrant situation is orchestrated and being complied with.No one coming from France has any legal claim of being a "refugee." France is a safe country.
They adopt criminal status by breaking U.K. immigration laws, and as such, international law should not prevent their immediate return to the safe country from which they departed.

The World Health Organization Prostitude
by raymond frantz inhttps://youtu.be/ksw9ujgm2i0?si=ruesgp-s6evmpdik.
as a second pandemic is now in the horizon mpox or monkey pox as they like to call it, it is important to scrutize the advise the governing body provided last time around with covid and how they sided 100% with the governents and their medical directives and lockdowns and how they imposed one-sided narrative in congregations around the world even threatening elders who refused to obey their direction....

The end is now coming soooooooooooooooon - but there are difficult years ahead of us!
Dear Cult, come clean, and tell 8m + that you're the same as Russell & Rutherford - you just don't know!
(Matthew 24:36) “Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father, and of course His slave, the WTBTS."
Matthew 24:42 - Keep on the watch, therefore, because you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.Matthew 24:50 - the master of that slave will come on a day that he does not expect and in an hour that he does not know,
Mark 13:33 - Keep looking, keep awake, for you do not know when the appointed time is.
Acts 1:7 - “It does not belong to you to know the times or seasons that the Father has placed in his own jurisdiction."
Sums it up IMO.p.s. He says, "We know that we have difficult years ahead of us."
How do you know it's years??????? I thought we were living in the last days of the very last days!!!!
So now it's the last years instead of the last days? Thanks a bunch, Elmer Gantry & Co.

Hey Jan, check out the FREESAT channels after No. 600 +.
When they're stop talking about "the last days," they start asking for your cash. Sound familiar?
