Things must be getting pretty desperate. I just heard some wonderful news of another boy being appointed a ministerial servant. The comment was that even though he is young, he is very mature.Another person, speaking of a different boy being appointed said that he had the added advantage of being home schooled and that really helped him to mature.

Faithful Slave Remove Some Menu Items
by proplog2 inas metatron posted 2 months ago the watchtower doesn't mention anything about blood in the new book "worship the only true god".. this is a very important book because it is recommended as a "deeper" study aid for those contemplating baptism.
it replaces the united in true worship book that was published 19 years ago.. the united in true worship book had 24 chapters.
the new replacement book has only 21 chapters.

The WTS Two 'Credible' Witness Policy.......
by ISP inbelow is an excerpt from the branch letter to all congregations.. 'thus, although they investigate every allegation, the elders in not authorized by the scriptures to take congregational action unless there is a confession or there are two credible witnesses'.
it reaffirms the two witness policy.no surprise there...... but why does it say 'credible'?
witnesses are witnesses are they not?

Generally, everyone would want to make sure that a person is not falsely accused. The credible policy is used for the protection of all.Child abuse cases should be handled by the authorities.

Watchtower Aug 1st gives out conflicting signals
by ozziepost inheard the expression "having a bet each way"?
you know how it goes, someone doesn't want to give offense or get "offside" with readers, colleagues etc so they try and agree with two conflicting arguments simultaneously.
the watchtower wouldn't do that, would it?

Don't you get it? It's frowned upon right now in this old system but in the new system playing music to Jehovah's praise will be the norm as well as being a soccer witness.

by minimus inaccording to the your will be done book ..."there is scriptural reason to believe that by the time of the annual celebration of the lord's evening meal on march 26, 1918, satan the devil was hurled down to the earth.
"now this must have been quite the war, since we are taught that by october 1 or 2 1914, satan was waging war with michael and he was thrown to the vicinity of the earth.
that is why since 1914 we have such a short time left.....how do they get these crazy dates and how can people believe this if they really think about it?

Suppose somebody tries to blackmail you or falsely accuse you of something that you did not do.Maybe a husband and wife or 2 best friends have it in for you regarding something: the thought is just because 2 witnesses make an accusation , it doesn't automatically mean it is the truth.Otherwise, all somebody would have to do is get anybody that would agree with them to accuse you of something and now automatically it is not defensible.
