  Special Mercy Provided to Adulterous Husbands 'if' Elders

  by HiddenPimo in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so here is something else that helped me wake up -.

  the elders manual - shepherd the flock of god contains a special caveat for elders who have committed adultery some time ago (not sure how many years, 'some time ago' is, but probably based on a complex formula of donations and # of assembly parts given.).

  but basically, they can just get a talking to by 2 brothers and then they can keep on keeping on.

  Yeah, it's about notoriety I agree, they care more about how it makes them look than the consequences of the 'sin,' that's why they hushed up so much child sex abuse under the 'don't being reproach on Jehovah's name' umbrella.

  My Pay No Attention to the Man Behind the Curtain Moment...

  this is my first post.

  i am physically in and mentally out.

  well i will not be offering a tl/dr version as that would be too difficult and it would also be an oversimplification of how i got to see the man behind the curtain.. my story begins at the 2016 regional convention of jehovah's witnesses.

  Do old time present day active JW`s genuinely believe in overlapping generations ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for the life of me i can not come to terms with old timers in the "truth" who could swallow this interpretation of scripture about an overlapping generation .. when jesus spoke about "this generation" .

  are their any real bible students among younger ones any more ?.

  here are 3 bible scriptures that confirm a generation is approximately 40- 50 years long give or take a few years .. 1. matt:1 :17 abraham born 2016-18 bc jesus born 2 bc approx.

  No one else has tried to find the truth, Rattigan? Go read any book on spirituality or religion. People try to find 'the truth' all the time.

  "ToMo3's liquor purchase video actually PROVES Jehovah's direction!"

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  ok, so i played the game of putting on my jw apologetic cap for a moment, and thought of how a devout jw could rationalize this whole liquor buying situation.. they could say:.

  "this actually proves that jehovah is guiding his organization!!

  he was bringing this activity of tomo3 to light, and it would also prove to be a loyalty test for all jws, to see if they would be stumbled right out of the truth!".

  Stanlivedeath, it isn't too good to be true. It could be so much worse, and given Tony's thing with tight pants I would expect a 'fake' video about him visiting a gay bar or getting caught with a prostitute, not buying expensive alcohol. It's out of left field.

  For active JW's - Is your "SLAVE" wrong in saying this...

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  w74 10/1 p. 607 questions from readers - “ death, [a person's own death] is the full payment for sin.”.

  or are these scriptures wrong?.

  (matthew 26:28) “...this means my ‘blood of the covenant,’ which is to be poured out in behalf of many for forgiveness of sins.”.

  Let's try to keep things in perspective, you can't compare child sex abuse to this, we gotta be careful here.

  Stanlivedeath, you're thinking like a Jehovah's Witness. Apostates don't forge old documents, they don't impersonate elites, they just don't. We're apostates. Do you do those kind of things? I don't, and I don't know anyone who does.
