Hey Fernando, those quotes shoot the WT in the foot really hard. What a bunch of hypocrites! Yeah, they obscure the matter by not using 'majesterium' to apply to themselves, but it's the same freaking practice! Arrrgh. I hate them so much.

Governing Body theft: Catholic 'magisterium' and kicking CHRIST out of christianity
by Terry inthe catholic church is founded upon magisterium which is the doctrine that jesus began a long succession of priests who administered his kingdom work and education through peter and his subsequent popes.
moreover, jesus gave this catholic church the right to make policy which heaven would back up with divine authority.. the protestant reformation nullified this idea by presenting a rival doctrine of sola scriptura which is the doctrine that no priesthood is necessary for an individual human being.
sola scriptura says one man and one bible is what god will work through directly as long as jesus is invoked as the mediator.. the governing body of jehovah's witnesses coalesce around the doctrine that the magisterium applies to them as "anointed" and no lone ranger christian can go around them.. in one fell swoop jw's stole the catholic doctrine and stepped on the protestant alternative!.

What's with all these wives who leave when their men stop being JWs? When the non JW man's beating the wife, she's told to stay with him and take the punches and 'be more submissive'. But when the JW man stops believing but is a decent guy, she's told she can go?

" But, the problem is that you can't use your Iphone out in the ministry. "
Ah but you can. A KM last year said you can use it to show householders the JW.org site.

Dunno if it's been mentioned, but " Standing at the table and seeing thousands of people go by each day..." seems like a big bludge for the pioneers. And I suppose only the elite, ie, pioneers are allowed to slack off like that.

JW ex-boss is such a horrid man!
by Julia Orwell inok, so my husband worked for this slave driver jw boss in a factory, and injured his back on the job.
so my husband has launched a compensation claim against the jw boss's worker insurance for unsafe work practices.
so the jw ex boss has responded to the claim with this mega statement affidavit thing.

" Julia does your Lawyer specialize in Workers Comp cases?"
Yes, from one of Australia's most prestigious law firms. He's a great guy, an actual human being rather than your stereotypical ambulance chaser.
My husband got a chance to read the statements this morning. He's shocked even more than I am, because the Boss lies about his processes, and claims he couldn't amend them because they are already 'perfect'. Yes, he used the word 'perfect'! The arrogance of this guy is astounding. His Watchtower training comes through too.
Like Outlaw said, he really appears to have done us a favour. Enough rope and all that.
If Hubby didn't already have an inkling of TTATT and gone inactive (TM) , this would have pushed him over for sure.
Still, it's very stressful for both of us.

I always suspected this guy was an SOB. The things hubby told me went on at work... Well, we do have a lawyer, and my normally placid husband is rift peed off about what has been said about him. He was furious when he read the statement, and will be right in there with his lawyer!!!!

Lol just as well I'm on my phone and not the pc. That way the awkwardness of using the phone discourages me from all nite research!
But really, what did YHVH mean to the people of the time? Today we just go, oh it's God's name, like your brother's name might be Frank or Bob, but a Jew seeing in ancient times, what did it conjure up in his mind?
Also there's been the suggestion that JHVH and Elohim were separate entities within the Israelite pantheon. What do you think?
Where does Lord Jesus fit into all this?

I was a good employee. I would go above and beyond for my boss and she'd give me the Friday off for the dc. Give and take. I don't work for her anymore but we're still friends. Jw bosses though, can't say I've had good experiences with them.
