Why is it ok for witnesses to go to Church backed hospitals?

by stuckinarut2 in

if witnesses should "get out of babylon the great" then why is it ok to go into hospitals that have been set up, and have funding from churches?.

isnt that a little contradictory or hypocritical?.

KM 4/08 under Question Box considers this matter and is basically a personal decision. Can't post the information, I am not that good at this.

Jehovah's Witnesses - People of Integrity

by Saved_JW in

when i think of integrity, a lot of positive connotations come to mind.

i think of individuals grounded in principles, who do not operate on opinions that change based on the breeze of political or social change.

a life that is directed by a code of morality, not on capricious emotions.

JWs are no different that the what they call worldly people, the majority are good but they have some rotten ones. I was witness to a case where an account overseer stole about $32,000.00 from a construction fund by falsifying the records.

He was DF but the money was never recovered.

Did you participate in a Drama?

i am bringing this up because even it was a lot of work, for the majority of the friends this was a rewarding experience.

camaraderie, joking, costumes, props and when the time came the celebrity status of being in the drama.. back in the 50s and 60s, conventions could be as long as 8 days and from about 1966 the dramas became an integral part of the program.

we had one per day and the brothers looked forward to their presentation.

Good one, sadly I don't remember inter league play but if my memory is correct is going in 30 years since their last World Series; the Blue cannot pass the Giants, Cards and even the Mets in the post season.

Oh well

One thing that happened a lot during the dramas were mistakes, most of the time the participants were aware of them, but not the audience . Some other mistakes were plain and simple to see, like having an actor wearing glasses or a watch on a biblical drama.

It seems like the dramas were too much fun for the audience and also the participants. We can't have that here, better to use that time digging trenches and building KH.

I think that the drama that you are referring as Exodus and the Zimri one is the same that I am calling the Moses drama.

My experience was the different, one of the few places where it felt like everybody was equal and you could laugh at the mistakes and gaffes of even the heavy duty guys.

Back in the 50s and 60s, conventions could be as long as 8 days and from about 1966 the dramas became an integral part of the program. We had one per day and the brothers looked forward to their presentation. Some of them were spectacular, I remember the one about Moses that was called by the friends the “Ten Commandments”; it ran 90 minutes and you needed about a hundred participants. On the same program there was one about the Apostle Paul that was 120 minutes long.

I have been told that during his time at Bethel Raymond Franz was closely involved with the dramas and that after his departure some of the old friends decided to decrease their frequency and relevance. The truth is that little by little they were curtailed and today for all practical purposes they are gone, my understanding is that a video replaced the live representation.

Being honest for sure it was a lot of work and effort, but for the majority it was a fun occasion.

So if you know some internal details about the dramas or were a participant or director, please share your experiences with us.

Thanks for reading
