What Bible evidence convinced you that only Mr. Rutherford and a few of his friends were chosen in 1919 by God & Jesus to be 'the faithful slave?' Can you share that proof with me?

Testing For Transparency - An Honesty Check
by Vanderhoven7 inplease share any other yes/no questions that might fit with the following 10. also feel free to critique the 10 listed.. testing for transparency.
there are some facts that jehovah's witnesses are reticent to divulge to new prospects.
you may want to find out very early in your discussions if the witnesses you are studying with are open and truthful about their organization's doctrine and practices by asking them a series of sensitive (potentially embarrassing) questions about their personal beliefs.

What are your thoughts on Animal testing?
by JimmyYoung ini just watched the netflix movie the animal people.
although i don't really agree in general with any eco or the like terrorists, watching the hidden cam video of the way these animals were treated was just sick.
anyone see this or the like movies?.

JY - I'm 100% behind the comments agreeing with properly controlled use of animals for medical research.
I also feel that more severe punishments should be imposed on any so-called human who deliberately makes an animal suffer. For scum like that, I wish karma was a fact!

My D.I.L. Works in a Pharmacy and gets abused by stupid people.
by smiddy3 inhi friends ,my d.i.l.
works in a pharmacy and looks after people who needs prescriptions and advice on health care products that patrons need .and the sad thing is with this covid19 virus seems to be bringing out the worst in too many people as more often than not she is getting abused and challenged for wearing what she and her workmates have to keep themselves and the public free from this virus.. there are notices all around the store telling people that they are out of certain items and cant supply them such as hand sanitizers ,face masks ,gloves ,personal disinfectant wipes etc,etc.and she gets abused because she has gloves on ,has a face mask on ,and has hand sanitizer that she can use and the customer says something like you have it why cant i get it ?.
in an abusive and challenging way and its getting her down.. she is getting tired of trying to tell the public she is their to help them and if she and her co-workers get sick the shop will close and nobody will get the help they need.. also they don`t respect the distance they need to keep from each other they lean over the counter with there hands touching everything trying to get in her face complaining.not only do they not appreciate they should only be in the store to get what they need and then get out ,they just treat it like any other normal day and browse around the shop picking up any and everything then putting it down again and buying items that are not necessary for their day to day existence .. i feel very sorry for her and all of the people doing like minded work , who are suffering under the same stress needlessly by unthinking uncaring people .. i just want to add she is a beautiful young lady who has a lovely caring personality and its a shame that she and others in her profession are subjected to this form of abuse.. note : this is happening in regional victoria australia.

My heart and overwhelming respect goes out to your DIL.
When a pest-control operator used a high pressure spray on the external wall of a hospital's A & E department, countless cockroaches - normally hidden from public view - came pouring out of the cracks & crevices.
Very high pressure is being applied in society at the moment - pressure which is revealing that there are many more "cockroaches" in our midst than we'd like to think. Your DIL is one of the many unacknowledged and unselfish angels amongst us. Give her our best wishes.

"Loving elders" are instructed by the Borg to contact inactive ones (ex-JW's!) to invite them to sign up for Zoom, because maybe they're now paranoid and "want to return to Jehovah."
Thanks, but no thanks!

"The disciple James...apparently presided [as chairman of the fictitious governing body] when the decision was made regarding circumcision." (w76 6/15 p. 378 par. 20)
This will be the same "governing body" member/chairman who tried to corrupt the beliefs of a Christian congregation!!!
(Acts 15:1) Now some men came down from Judea and began to teach the brothers: “Unless you get circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.”
(Galatians 1:7) ...there are certain ones who are causing YOU trouble and wanting to pervert the good news about the Christ.
(Galatians 2:4) But that matter [circumcision] came up because of the false brothers brought in quietly, who slipped in to spy on the freedom we enjoy in union with Christ Jesus, so that they might completely enslave us;
(Galatians 2:12) For before certain men from James arrived, . . .

"....the first-century governing body settled the circumcision issue..."(bt chap. 13 p. 103)
Galatians 2:1-6 show that it was the apostle Paul who was used to resolve the issue. Paul was directed by a revelationt to teach the older men in Jerusalem - not the other way around! (especially verses 2 & 6)

individual memorial portions
by Dubtown inthis year locally the memorial will be broadcast to the congregation using zoom software.
it will be a video broadcast, however no one locally will be partaking, so what arrangements are needed for bread and wine?.
local elders plan to deliver small portions of the bread and wine to each household ready for the celebration..

I received the first official contact from an elder in over two years yesterday - to invite me to join up to ZOOM for the memorial!
When I reminded him that the 'slave' said memorial emblems were not required, he said, "Jehovah knows what's in everyone's heart."
@ Dubtown - in view of UK government restrictions, the bread & wine delivery elders will breaking laws which I feel will be enacted some time later today. :)
