Hello Atlantis and thanks for your work.
About the S-147 is it possible to have a clean copy without highlighting please?
will they start appointing "teen-agers"?
who knows, nothing is shocking when it comes to the tower.
paragraph 1 says: "teens or even "younger" for responsibilities in the congregation.. 2022-december-s-147-announcements and reminders.. click the image to enlarge.. page 1--https://postimg.cc/hhh8c3sd page-2--https://postimg.cc/pnzpzfjh if this keeps up they will be asking babies in diapers to give the instruction talks.

jehovah's witnesses denied state aid.
And they have established the "Freedom of Worship Office" in order to claim some money from the Norwegian government

beats the rubber dinghies, i suppose..
this is your second post with the same subject and the same video
i spent most of my life in the org.
we were taught that our purpose in life was to serve jehovah.
that never really made sense to me, but it was still a purpose to keep going.
Unlike the majority of those writing here I have not lost faith in Jehovah and the Bible, I am not blind and I clearly see the mistakes of the WTS, things that leave a bad taste in your mouth and which personally led me to give resignation as a congregation elder and pioneer for several years. But I attend the meetings and I love the brothers, even if they are very simple people and who, in my opinion, make the mistake of idolizing the GB. It's their problem, not mine. Going back to my wife and I, we have retired to life in the countryside, we have taken some land to cultivate and some animals. This thing makes us feel good and in harmony with creation.
do jw's still believe that babylon the great is the empire of false religion?
inquiring minds want to know .

at the moment the interpretation on BTG has not changed, however a small detail in the comment of an illustration on a recent magazine opened up the possibility that in the future there may be a revision on the identity of the beast she rides, historically identified with the UN

"The beast today represents the United Nations..."
i recently married my best friend of 32 years.
she is a life-long jw and once an active pioneer, i am a 'worldly' person through-and-through, always will be.
we married because it was the only way we could find a way of staying together while giving her a path back to her religion ultimately, which she does not want to (or cannot) let go of.
I have served as an elder for a few years and all I can tell you is that there is no definitive answer to your question because it really depends on the mentality and culture prevailing in the body of elders of that specific congregation, more exactly those 3 elders who will form the specific committee for your wife.
The marked has no reason to exist as a consequence of a sin of immorality (porneia) but it is a gray area which is resorted to in borderline cases where the problem is disordered conduct. In cases of serious sins there is always the intervention of a judicial committee. I would add that my personal opinion is that you two stick together regardless of what that committee decides. If the decision should be for disfellowshipping be prepared and expect much tears and emotional distress from your wife. Be ready to be understanding and never judge her, be loving and patient. Only this will help her overcome the pain.

only after TonusOH's explanation and re-reading peacefulpete's post did I realize the thing.
English is not my native language
