A divorced single sistet

by TxNVSue2023 in

it was an opinion of someone that to be a divorced, single sister i. the organization was the lowest social standing you can have.

why are they dispised?

( what if was a scriptural divorce where husband cheated?

"emotional widow in the congregation"...I noticed this in particular at conventions...the women are in the audiance with their families ( if they have any other then the man there ) He is off doing what ever duty he was assigned to. For all practical purposes, she just as well had no husband...

in a judicial matter concerning divorce based upon a cheating husband, there is always the question as to whether the woman was "putting out".... let's say she wasn't for whatever reason...how does that justify adultery? Does that change the marriage vow? ( that could work for both goose and gander ) They look for an escape clause for the guilty. IMHO

Acts 15:29 - "keep abstaining from blood"

by aqwsed12345 in

for a christian, only the moral commandments of the old testament are binding (as they cannot change), but the various liturgical, social, and other so-called casuistic laws no longer apply to them.

this includes dietary habits, such as the prohibition of pork or fat, as well as the prohibition of blood.. take a look at the following verses: mt 15:11, mk 7:15-19, acts 11:7-9, 1 tim 4:3-5.. the jehovah's witnesses say that, yes, but in the acts of the apostles (15) the consumption of blood, idol meat, and strangled animals is also prohibited, meaning the new testament still forbids it.

for catholics, the council of florence settled this issue, stating that this apostolic regulation was only a temporary measure to facilitate agreement between jews and gentiles in the early church.

I notice there are things the Bible teaches and people go out of their way to argue that isn't what the Bible means. There seems to be the concept that the "no blood" is a JW teaching...it isn't.The Bible teaches it. But what JW do teach about it doesn't make any sense: you can't take a blood transfusion, but you can have parts of the blood...where did the Parts come from? If I am left to my own understanding and reading the Bible without any outside influence ( religious, medical, or scientific, whatever) I would conclude that blood is sacred and is to be poured out. I see no place for transfusions, even if it means saving a life. Luke 17:33 KJ21

Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it, and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.

Then there is the scripture about not asking what is in the meat markets for the sake of your conscience. We would likely be appalled to know what is actually in many of the foods we eat or the meds we take.

I knew a sister whose husband committed adultery. She sought a divorce. The local elders snubbed her and gave a marking talk saying some women get a career ( can't remember the exact wording ) and feel independant of their husbands and push them out.The congregation was weary of the woman I knew of so while no names were mentioned, the point was taken. She wasn't offered any sympathy because he was a cheat and gave her a potentially death dealing std. ( she wasn't allowed to speak of it to the local congregation..) The cheating husband told his mother that another brother had given the sister the std, so she would spread a lie. HE could spread this lie, but the wife told to keep her mouth shut! He got patted on the back. He moved away from the congregation, but came back to visit a couple of times at the end of the meeting, standing at the opening between the foyer and auditorium. The "brothers and sisters" lined up in a long row like a wedding reception, going up to hug him, shake his hand, and pat him on the back...all this while the wife was being treated like they didn't know what to do with her.

Aftermath of being Reinstated

by TxNVSue2023 in

i'm in the process of being reinstated ( my df'ing story is on here).

because i've never been in this position before, i don't know how i will be treated once i'm reinstated.

i moved to a new city/state and i don't know a single person here or in my new congregation i am attending.

Why do you want to be reinstated? You said yourself you had been out for years before...Do you really think they are God's channel for your salvation,even though Jesus said he is the mediator between men and God? Maybe you just feel comfortable there...Are you going to feel comfortable teaching people that in order for them to live they have to be a JW and obey 9 men. because Jesus appointed them?..CAN you prove from the Bible ( without WT publications) that Jesus appointed them faithul slave in 1919?

I think updates are going to be harder to get...I tried to post some video about censorship and it hasn't loaded yet...don't know why the "new" posting isn't working here. According to one reporter I watched the UN is going to be cracking down on "misinformation" and youtube isn't going to allow any "medical" videos or comments. They are gearing up for C0v1d 2 in a couple of months and are already planning to keep people quiet.

she also warned that it was dangerous for children to be around Tony...so it seems to be more than just him covering up her dad's abuse.

PIMI wife told to go against her husband and take the vaccines?

by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

if a pimi sister has been told by her unbelieving husband not to take these experimental vaccines then what is official jw policy in this situation?.

should she go against her husband and tell him i will do what the men at my church tell me?.

what on earth will the husband think then?

enoughisenough

The woman needs to fight for her part of the marital property.... And Elders WERE given instuction to go along with the GB...maybe you would have told her to save her marriage, but the company man didn't. If she had trusted Jehovah, she would not have taken the jabs...
