New Video aka Sparlock- View of Active JW
by XBEHERE inso over the weekend i was in a cargroup for service, yes i still go out but i dont ring doorbells or knock i just go out to keep wife and other elders off my back, anyway the video came up and i said nothing about it but the other 3 people in the car ( a pioneer and 1 elder, 1 publisher) said that it was good.
yes you heard correctly good!
the pioneer even stated that the annimation was good and it is short enough to hold a young childs attention.

When did JWs start saying that rejecting blood was a "main tenet" of their faith
by Shawn10538 ini have been preparing to reply to dr. mark galantowicz's comment on kabc channel 7 for a few days now.
and it seems to me i read somewhere that it came out during some trial that for jws to be able to sue doctors over the blood issue, it had to be a "main tenet" of their faith.
but if anybody knows off hand it would be great.. growing up a jw pioneering and being at bethel, i would never have said that rejecting blood is a "main tenet" of my faith.

Elders Can Hide their Own Sins from the Past-Yet Continue as Elders? Read
by flipper ini was shocked ( though i probably shouldn't have been ) when reading the new elders manual concerning whether elders have to confess up about former sins from a few years earlier.
notice this on pg.
38 , paragraph 19 : it states, " if it comes to light or an appointed brother confesses that he has committed a disfellowshipping offense years in the past : the body of elders may determine he can continue to serve if the following is true : the immorality or other serious wrongdoing occured more than a few years ago, and he is genuinely repentant, recognizing that he should have come forward immediately when he sinned.
