  >bloodguilt was upon both Saul and his household suggests that, although Saul probably took the lead in the murderous action, the “sons” of Saul may directly or indirectly have shared in it.

  Note the words used above: suggests, probably, may. That is pretty weak. Compare that to the commentary below.

  Pasted from
  . http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/smcdownlds/2sam.html

  For the sin of one man (Saul), God punished everyone with famine. To stop the famine, God required human sacrifices

  David delivered two of Saul's sons and five of his grandsons (who were sons of David's ex-wife Michal) to the Gibeonites to be put to death. This was in spite of the promise he had made to Saul not to kill any of his offspring after his death:

  1Sam:24:17: And he said to David, Thou art more righteous than I: for thou hast rewarded me good, whereas I have rewarded thee evil.

  1Sam:24:20: And now, behold, I know well that thou shalt surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in thine hand.
  1Sam:24:21: Swear now therefore unto me by the LORD, that thou wilt not cut off my seed after me, and that thou wilt not destroy my name out of my father's house.
  1Sam:24:22: And David sware unto Saul. And Saul went home; but David and his men gat them up unto the hold.

  >Since you have the WT CD, look up those scriptures in the index for an accurate explanation.

  I don't need to. I let the scriptures do the talking.

  We have mostly just written about other aspects of david from the scriptures. As you can see, my post about human sacrifice was just a quote from the bible, the wt bible at that.

  Everyone knows very well what point you are trying to make. But you have a very bad case of tunnel vision. Try to see the bigger picture.

  I know this is a bit off topic. Rick isn't likely to get back to ya anyway. While you were over there, did you hear of the attack and sinking of the liberty? Just curious:)

  David does human sacrifice to jehovah because of famine. A good example to follow?

  *** Rbi8 2 Samuel 21:1-9 ***
  21 Now there came to be a famine in the days of David for three years, year after year; and David proceeded to consult the face of Jehovah. Then Jehovah said: “Upon Saul and upon his house there is bloodguilt, because he put the Gib'e·on·ites to death.” 2 So the king called the Gib'e·on·ites and talked to them. (Incidentally, the Gib'e·on·ites were not of the sons of Israel, but of the remainder of the Am'or·ites; and the sons of Israel themselves had sworn to them, but Saul sought to strike them down in his feeling jealous for the sons of Israel and Judah.) 3 And David went on to say to the Gib'e·on·ites: “What shall I do to YOU, and with what shall I make atonement, that YOU may certainly bless the inheritance of Jehovah?” 4 So the Gib'e·on·ites said to him: “It is not a matter of silver or gold for us in connection with Saul and his household, neither is it ours to put a man to death in Israel.” At that he said: “Whatever YOU are saying I shall do for YOU.” 5 At this they said to the king: “The man that exterminated us and that schemed to annihilate us from subsisting in any of the territory of Israel, 6 let there be given to us seven men of his sons; and we must expose them to Jehovah in Gib'e·ah of Saul, the chosen one of Jehovah.” Accordingly the king said: “I myself shall give them.”
  7 However, the king felt compassion upon Me·phib'o·sheth the son of Jon'a·than the son of Saul on account of the oath of Jehovah that was between them, between David and Jon'a·than the son of Saul. 8 Consequently the king took the two sons of Riz'pah the daughter of A'iah whom she bore to Saul, Ar·mo'ni and Me·phib'o·sheth, and the five sons of Mi'chal the daughter of Saul whom she bore to A'dri·el the son of Bar·zil'lai the Me·hol'ath·ite. 9 Then he gave them into the hand of the Gib'e·on·ites and they proceeded to expose them on the mountain before Jehovah, so that the seven of them fell together; and they themselves were put to death in the first days of harvest, at the start of the barley harvest

  14 Minutes and you are not a Servant of Jehovah

  by JT in

  2. friends

  last night we were discussing the "new light" that was revealed to the gb recently from jehovah.

  many of us recall all the co talks and elder parts based on the bible text of how a true servant of jah would not be "inactive or irregular" for years one was required to have at least one hour to be considered a servant of jah.. as the sec in my hall i recall so many times calling up friends to get thier time and hearing them break crying cause they didn't have 60min only about 45min- and they knew that it meant they were not servants of jah.

  now with the new light from jw a person with only 14 minutes of time will now be disqualified as being a servant of jah.. it is amazing how many jw will view this arrangement as a "loving provision from jah" instead of realizing that thier service to thier god has been reduced to whether they get 15min or 14 min.

  It shows how nonsesical this reporting thing is, as far as serving god goes.

  I'll tell you one thing that puzzled me. During my latter times s a jw, i became 'inactive'. An elder i always liked told me that because of that my baptism was invalid. Ok. If i wasn't legally a dedicated baptised jw, then how could they have the right to df me? Techically i must have already done that to myself when i became inactive.
