Is it alright for a Disfellowshipped Jehovah's Witness to Date?
by preacherman init is said that a dfed is handed over to satan and left alone in his or her gross unrepentant conduct.
however, you'll agree with me that not all dfeds are living that way.
the truth is that some have actually repented and stopped their bad conducts but have fallen victim to the legalistic and procedural expediences of the wbts which makes it very difficult for some to come back in the shortest period of time.

"Birds of a feather flock together." Get to know a prospective partner's views on the really important things in life - including their beliefs. If you can accept their opinions without them causing rifts between you - especially when children enter your lives - then go for it. -

THE FAILURE to REPORT OFFENCE
We recommend the introduction of a new criminal offence of failure to report targeted at child sexual abuse in an institutional context (recommendation 33).
We recommend that the offence should apply:
• to any adult who owns or manages or who is a staff member or volunteer of a relevant institution, or who otherwise requires a Working with Children Check clearance for their role – but not to individual foster carers or kinship carers
• in relevant institutions, including institutions that operate facilities or provide services to children in circumstances where the children are in the care, supervision or control of the institution. The offence would be committed if the person fails to report to police in circumstances where they know, suspect, or should have suspected that an adult associated with the institution was sexually abusing or had sexually abused a child.

Concept faithful discreet slave
by inbetween09 inaccording to the "new light" the faithful slave class appeared after jesus came 1914 (rather 1918 he inspected the temple) and was bestowed with assigement to provide spiritual food.. there are a number of problems with this new concept:.
how did russel and co found out about certain unique teachings diffferent from mainstream christendom?.
option 1) apparently by himself, as there was no fds at his time.

@ inbetween09 - The answer is so clear & simple for anyone to see;
Brother Rutherford and several of his companions were jailed as a result of statements by J.F.R. in a publication. They were released after serving a short part of the sentence. During this short period of inactivity within the prison's walls, God & Christ examined these incarcerated men, and decided that they alone represented the hierarchy of the only true religion on planet earth, and as such, fulfilled Jesus
illustrationprophecy about a faithful and discreet slave. Following their release from prison, Brother Rutherford then revealed this wonderful "new light" to the worldwide brotherhood!Just because Brother Rutherford
inventedexplained this "prophetic" fulfilment and claimed the title of FDS for his corporation, doesn't mean it isn't true!Scriptural evidence is not a requirement in this instance - just faith in men.

This is why the Elders should always call the WT society or personal attorney before ever talking to the Police.
by StoneWall inthis is probably going to unnerve some on here or make them uncomfortable.we always hear, why didn't the elders call the cops first instead of the wt society (lawyers/attorneys).
in cases of child molestation or other incidents.this video is why and if you're smart you'll follow their example.i'm not taking the wtbts side on this just so you know in advance because i do not agree with the two witness rule at all.but be that as it may,this is by far the best lawyer/attorney and law professor i've ever heard on the subject of why you should never talk to the police and always let an investigation be made through counsel.this is why in the usa you have the right to remain silent when talking to police/authorities but even more important what the fifth amendment really entails and why it would behoove us all to understand what can happen even if you are totally innocent and have nothing to hide but how things can go horribly wrong.if i ever have to go to court for anything i can only hope that i got a lawyer as competent as this one the vid is approx 46 minutes long but well worth investing that time because if you had to talk to a lawyer it would cost you a lot to receive what this professor covers in this.the majority is from the law professor and the remaining minutes are of a former police captain/investigator with his insights and opinions.and just to be clear, i'm not suggesting that the elders not call the police because they should in cases of child molestation but rather they better get legal advice to protect themselves so that they don't have to answer for the wtbts decisions.look how many former (ex) elders we have on sites like this one and others and i'm so happy they got free of the wt but also they didn't get in trouble by accidentally saying/doing the wrong thing.all of us can benefit by following this advice in the video and i hope you enjoy it and to know what your rights arehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-7o9xyp7ee.

All J.W.'s should take this video to heart, and never discuss any aspects of their private lives with elders.
They should also "never go beyond what is written" and confess anything to such men.

Really struggling to go on
by Isambard Crater inso, so much has happened in my life over the years and continues to happen, but i won't go into the details as it would take a long time.. i don't really know why, but i returned to "the truth" 15 years ago.
in 2012 when the tv broadcasting station launched, i started to develop doubts.
the australian royal commission and other scandals made me angrier, and i now don't believe most of the core teachings.. the only reason i show up at 5 or 6 meetings each month is to keep in contact with my parents and a few other family members.. but it's killing me, literally.

So, would we call the GB our Uncles, Aunts, Sisters or Cousins???
by stuckinarut2 inok, so try and follow me here.... according to jw doctrinal teachings, the gb are "christ's brothers".
humans are all "god's children".
so does that make the gb our "uncles"?.

Easy - Anti-Christs.
NWT, p. 1693 - Antichrist. "The Greek term has a twofold meaning........It may also refer to a false Christ, one in the place of Christ. All people, organizations, or groups that falsely claim to represent Christ....................... can properly be called antichrists."
(1 John 4:3) "But every inspired statement that does not acknowledge Jesus, does not originate with God.....this is the antichrist’s inspired statement...."
Think about the G.B. - inspired Memorial talk; when the speaker directs virtually everyone to reject the bread & the wine - thereby disavowing what Christ instructed.

“a bigoted class of men who have systematically endeavored......to throttle all Bible teaching unless it comes through them.”
Keep in mind that this accusation comes from the alleged God-selected "faithful slave" - isn't this exactly what the current "slave" dictated in the September 2007 Kingdom Ministry - "Don't do any research of doctrines in groups which are not under our control."

The coal calling the kettle black - yet again!
Intolerance? Inconceivable within the WTBTS! :(

I have been informed by two trusted JW sources that 2 sisters at different conventions - one in England and one in Scotland - were refused entry to the arenas because they didn't have lapel badges!
Be prepared P.E. :)
Anyone else experienced this?
