  Elders- "Trained or UnTrained- WHICH IS IT??

  by JT in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the biggest error wt has continued to make for the last 120yrs is they leave a wonderful paper trail behind - where a serious student of study will have no problem following and seeing that so many of their lofty claims simply don't fly .

  case in point - are the elders trained or untrained clergymen as it were?.

  well for those of you who have never served as an elder allow me to share with you what elders are told about their training.

  JW's -tree huggers worst enemy

  by TR in

  much of the work i do is at vacant, repossessed, and abandoned houses.

  almost without exception, i find wt literature that was "placed" there.

  what a disingenuous way for a jw to get rid of wt rags.

  TR,

  I agree with you. The waist involved with all of the literature, especially the amount of magazines printed must be stupendous.

  In one year, I collected and received from a few friends, over 1100 WT and AFAKE magazines that were collected mainly from laundry mats and retired and elderly apartment complexes in my town. The number of magazines that I have received over the past few years is up in the thousands. The JWs in my area have no idea that I have people collecting the magazines when they leave them at places.

  What a waist!

  What about:

  "WE cannot take part in any modern version of idolatry- be it worshipful gestures toward an image or symbol or the imputing of salvation to a person or an organization." WT 11/1/1990 p.26

  "identtifying themselves with Jehovah's organization is essential to their salvation." OUR KINGDOM MINISTRY, 11/1990,p.1

  There are so many contradictions, it is hard to pick which ones to post.

  the times in which jesus lived are well documented.

  we know a lot about the historical context of the world in which he lived.

  Trevor,

  Christianity is not the only faith that has been ingrained into the minds of it's followers as the true faith.

  There is no such thing as "the true religion", only those that think they are, and these are the ones that are the most dangerous.

  unclebruce,

  As I said, it is different view. What about the site is limp wishfull thinking? Please be specific.

  I did not help you clear up a Bible prediction. I did help you clear up a misunderstanding with the post "Fighting for gory glory- who killed Goliath?" Posted by you on 5/18/2000, 5:29am

  You had a question about 1 Samuel 17:49-50 and 2 Samuel 21:19
  Maybe that will help.

  Take care unclebruce

  Everyone,

  I think Anthony is stilll researching his own religion as he said he would, I hope. Maybe it will be an eye opener for him researching his belief, as it was for us to research and examine the WT.

  Hopefully Anthony will post again a little more enlightened.

  unclebruce,

  I have spoken with you a few times on EDEN2OUTPOST, not as Scorpion though. I gave you some information clearing up a Bible contradiction you had. This was some time ago.

  I always like your sense of humor. As regards your post, where did you get the information you posted? I would like to check out the site or the source.

  You also might look at:

  http://www.av1611.org/resur.html

  just to get a different view.

  Take care
