DO Brown Payne tells SA audience Serena Williams "disciplined" by her local elders for swearing on TV
by oppostate inat today's special assembly in natick ma, bro brown payne annouced to the audience that serena williams was disciplined by her local elders for her swearing escapade on tv.. saying: "can jehovah's witnesses swear like that on tv?
" then he told the audience that she was "disciplined" by the elders of the congregation she's a publisher in.. doesn't this smack of revealing the private business of another person?
the most the local elders could have said was "a matter concerning serena williams has been handled by the elder body".

In the 1st Century, Governor Festus, whilst weighing the matter of judgement against Paul said to Agrippa, Acts 25:16 - " I answered them that it was not the custom of the Romans to give up anyone before the accused met the accusers face to face and had opportunity to make his defense concerning the charge laid against him. "
Even the Romans, as barbaric as they were in terms of judgment still afforded Paul this opportunity to meet his accusers face to face.

The Governing Body - their own worst enemy!
by cedars ini've been giving some thought recently to what's going on in the minds of the individual governing body members, and what makes them tick.
the process of listening to their talks for my "getting to know you" youtube video series, though draining, has been very enlightening.
i now feel i know some of their individual personalities a little better than i did previously.. then there has been the tumultuous events of 2012. it's been interesting to note the way the governing body has responded to some of these issues, and how in most cases their responses have been woefully inadequate or even counter-productive as regards their long-term interests.. for example:.

Urban Legend, or TRUTH? How did story of Ray Franz "spitting on" Karl Kline get started?

did anyone hear the same?.

I dont care whether he smoked or spat - Crisis of Conscience was one of the most courageous works undertaken by a cult member ... esp. considering his upbringing.
The rest is background noise...I never knew him, but I will always love Ray!
...and he had much better dress sense than his uncle who looks like a bacca chewin' bible slingin' cowboy in this photo...
"Too much RED FRED !"

all of the prophecies jesus had foretold which were hidden and lost yet being fullfilled the entire time.
this is the good news that will then spread worldwide, and then the end will come.
