  Dear Watchtower,

  Why is 'Watchtower' BEFORE 'Bible' in the name, Watchtower Bible and Tract Society? Ain't the Bible supposed to be more important?

  I'm not sure what his post-education stipulation specifics are.

  I have known of brothers who needed expensive surgery, and society paid for it on the basis they remain with the 'family' for a certain amount of time, though. I would not be surprised if that was the case with him.

  He is married, so they know he won't leave for that.

  I did, because I was always considered the go-to elder. I loved the friends. They loved me back. It was never about pushing organizational rules, or appearing spiritual, but love.

  I never did shepherding calls in a suit. I'd dignify the brother/sister and wear clean pants and nice shirt, but we are a family. I tried to be a real friend. If something was wrong, there was no need to show up looking like a business man.

  I always kept letters of introduction brief and NEVER gave out info of a persons disfellowshipping or reproof (if either was lifted) no matter how recent. It was forgiven by Jehovah, why bring it back up, I reasoned.

  Many other rules and instructions never flew with me. Ironically, that's why I've always felt genuine love of the friends.

  I haven't been to a meeting/service in a few weeks. I left cold turkey. The friends likely assume I have an assigment somewhere.

  It isn't official word I'm an apostate in the congregation yet. I will see in time if it the love is real or not...

  In 2007 they sent a brother from Wallkill to Patterson's legal dept. He is still receiving a legal education.

  Edit: My source is I know the brother personally. I don't feel comfortable giving out his name. For me, it's not just a rumor, I can GUARANTEE it. For everyone else, I am sorry I can't provide more info than that.

  Reread August 15 2012 Watchtower on WT Library 30 years from now.

  It will read completely different. If there is some bad phenomena in 2015 in NYC, that article will then be modified and revisited so show how they are on top of their "stuff".

  Do YOU Regard Yourself As An "Apostate"?

  personally, i believe the watchtower organization is the real apostate!.

  The nation of Israel turned apostate. Biblically, they were God's chosen nation because of covenant with Abraham.

  JW's are NOT in a covenant relationship with God, but the whole 'organization' can still turn apostate, just like Israel. So in that case, following the leaders will led the followers into apostasy.

  Therefore, since apostasy is against Jehovah, not a group, men, nation, or organization even if they are proven to represent God, those that still strive to serve God are not apostates, scripturally speaking.

  But we all have proof, GB does not represent Jehovah, so no harm done.

  iI remember when it was 1985, that was 100 years ago I'm now 116

  as you can guess now, i'm a futurologist, and man has now extended his lifetime exponentially and things are better than can be imagined, mankind scientific breakthroughs have made eternity a possiblity, there are still things that can be improved, but there is no judgement or religion to deter humankind to pursue their dreams, there are no more fundamental religions are they were outlawed in 2049 as detrimental to human progress, and are we enjoying the results.. although some may say this is wishful thinking today in 2012 there are many organizations involved in life extension and eradication of prejudice, caused by judgemental world religions especially the jehovah's witnesses.. i look forward to seeing you there!.

  Living that long healthily is not profitable, and profits dictate the world we live in.
