Don't know for sure, but this is what happened to my husband. He was a regular pioneer and a MS, but had an elder use him in a lie [ without us knowing at the time] to get our cong P.O removed. My husband spoke up and exposed the lie. It's very interesting that within a year, this same strategy was applied again to get the same P.O removed. Finally a new CO came in, removed the PO himself, moved a service overseer elder over from a neighboring cong. then announced to the cong. that HE had made some changes and for us as a cong to pray that it works and the cong gets Jehovah's blessing. Then the new service overseer [who was now in the 'Boy's club' of the new CO] attempted to use my husband in another lie to get the book study out of the now removed PO's home. When my husband challenged their lies, we were hauled in front of 12+ elders, who encircled us with their chairs and accused US of apostasy because we dared to challenge authority and shortly after they tried several attempts to remove my husband from his position. [It's interesting that we walked away from this meeting without even private reproof]
Point I'm trying to make is that: Maybe they only want YES men, spiritual qualifications and hours don't matter unless you're a 'Brown noser';
Does any one know the difference between a 'Brown Noser' & a "Butt kisser" ?????........Depth perception
