The awful treatment of my disfellowshipped cousin still continues

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

my cousin was disfellowshipped twenty years ago when he was 18 years old.

he admitted to the congregation elders that he was fornicating with his ''wordly'' girlfriend.

the elders were following him and hiding in their cars to see what he was up to.

Jehovah`s Witnesses need to stop reading WT material and go back to reading what the Bible actually says ,

such as the illustration / parable of the prodigal son ,short, sweet and to the point.

Luke 15:11-32

by wozza in

he is the highest rank catholic to cop this in australia .

his case was suppressed for some time but now is public ,.

the news is just breaking on tv he has right of appeal still denying guilt.

So now we hear that George Pell will spend the next two weeks in jail /remand section till march the 13th before his sentencing .

His bail was revoked .

The { Catholic } whole world waits with baited breath ,what will happen to the most senior catholic in Australia by the Australian judiciary and what will happen in the Vatican with such a prominent member being convicted of child sexual abuse .

How will Pope Francis respond now.

Does Pope Francis have any other option other than defrocking cardinal George Pell ? According to the Catholic Churches teachings he remains a priest forever ,however the church could strip him of any of his official duties as a priest.

This case has put the Catholic Church and the Vatican under the microscope worldwide given George Pell`s most senior position in the Vatican.

If they want to save face around the world , in some small measure surely there is no other option open for Pope Francis .?

by pale.emperor in

if you haven't seen it already, skip to 1:14:30 in lloyds video and watch the craziness unfold.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2y7f7-k5wo.

i'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on this.. they're digging themselves a great hole here, in about 30 years time they'll be claiming this video was a mere "speculation" and that "some people" got the wrong ideas..

true worship was restored in 1919 ?

What were the teaching and preaching in 1919 that they still believe today ?

If they have today rejected many of there teachings in 1919 as old light ,how can they claim to have true worship today ?

Apparently the rest of the world new about this since last December ,however there was a suppression order for it not to be released here in Australia .

Today that suppression order was lifted

.Some months ago the Victorian Herald Sun newspaper had a front page story about the ban and couldn`t say much about it except to say "its in the news everywhere else but Australia " without mentioning George Pell or the Catholic Church .

George Pell also became very high up at the Vatican ,the pressure is now on Pope Francis to excommunicate him from the Church.

It will be interesting to see how that goes.

You can bet your life there was a lot more accusations against Pell however lawyers only go for the couple that are more substantiated where they know they will get a conviction.

Thanks for posting this wozza

Paragraph 4: The WTS/GB says that “most people still choose not to submit to God” in their own opinion. 8 billion but only 8 million jws means that over 7 billion people are slated for everlasting death at Armageddon.

Yet at the ARC into Child sexual abuse GB member Geoffrey Jackson when asked if the JW`s believed they were the only one`s who god was using among all of the religions (implied) ?

He answered that "it would be presumptuous on his part to say that" or words to that effect .

So how can they make the above claim?

here is australia the race commissioner has claimed senator o'sullivan is in violation of racially derogatory language.

senator sullivan has said the biggest threat to biosecurity is ' some bloody old chinaman that brings in his favourite sausage down the front of his undies' chin tan said using the word chinaman is offensive.

makes you wonder is englishman or australian man or scotsman is also just as offensive.

"End of All Kingdoms in 1914!" 8-30-1914 World Magazine PDF!

by cabasilas in

over the past 50 odd years, an article that was published in a new york city newspaper in 1914 has been quoted several times in watchtower publications.

this article was published in the august 30, 1914 world about pastor c.t.

russell's predictions for 1914. modern watchtower publications omit the facts from that article that show that russell's predictions for 1914 do not match the watchtower society's current understanding of 1914 as a "marked year.

What organization, religious or secular falsifies its early history to make it more palatable for the present time. ?

No reputable organization does that ,only one who has reason to hide what they said or did in the past .

So JW/GB why are you hiding the "Truth" of your past history what are you afraid of current Jehovah`s Witnesses finding out about what you proclaimed as "truth" in your early history that you discard as "Truth" today ?

If Jehovah /Jesus Christ appointed you as the Faithful and Discreet Slave Class back in 1919 because of what you believed and taught ,why aren`t you teaching those same things today ?

And the fact that you don`t ,what can that only mean ?
