  "So did the Holy Spirit get it wrong?"

  by stuckinarut2 in

  in the australian royal commission, the issue of appointment of ministerial servants and elders came up for intense scrutiny.. using the elders books and society publication references, the prosecution questioned the premise that "holy spirit directs appointments".

  the question was proposed as to whether this "process was accurate or was it flawed" seeing as many appointed ones were in fact not very righteous, or "spiritual".

  indeed, the issue about "spirituality" was also raised, and the definition of what makes someone "spiritually mature" in the organisation's eyes was raised.

  Yes, when they say it out loud, and have to actually look at the disbelief on everyone's faces, and get no looks of awe or praise, they just might have an inkling of how hollow their words ring.

  Biblical Proof that JW Elders can not have Jehovah's or Jesus Spirit

  something just occured to me.. like a lightening bolt in fact.

  matthew 10:19 just popped into my head... new american standard bible 18 and you will even be brought before governors and kings for my sake, as a testimony to them and to the gentiles.

  19 "but when they hand you over, do not worry about how or what you are to say; for it will be given you in that hour what you are to say.

  These men seem incapable of answering very simple questions, even when asked three times, different ways..... They actually seem stupid.

  I am sure the Australian public feels relieved that they have entrusted the protection of their children to the 'superior authorities' of this Satan ruled world, rather than to the higher law of the Bible, and the leadership in God's righteous organization.

  "OMG, how do I answer this and not get myself jailed?"

  "OMG, how do I answer this and not get DF'd?"

  "OMG, how do I answer this and not make the GB look bad?"

  "OMG, how do I not bring reproach on this "Biblical, oh so better than the world's stupid laws, and Jehovah's name?"

  "OMG, I forgot about the other kids"

  My heart goes out to you all, I was there too, and I agree!

  The best revenge is to not let them get you!

  I think this Australian court exposure on the cold hearted thinking and actions of the WT, GB, "Service Desk", "Legal Desk", CO's, DO's, Elders just may be the crack that starts the waters breaking out of the dam!

  The elder slipped up in one part of his testimony. He said "If we have a hesitation as to what we should do........ we call the branch!

  There is the link.... 'we call the branch!"

  The Society IS involved... it has been drummed into their heads so often "Now what do you do when?" so that it automatically comes out! "Call the branch!"

  The person that presented the preliminary report was AWESOME! He had statistics of how many cases of abuse among JW since 1950, 1,000+, and how many have have been reported to police authorities: zero.

  He did a great job describing what evidence would be presented by the WT and by himself. He has shepherding book quotes, letters from the GB to prove they are involved in these child abuse cases, witnesses as to how these 'judicial meetings' (how high and mighty do they sound now Mr. T Obrien?) occur, how the women felt during them ("I had an easier time in court than I did in the congregation, in front of men, with no support")

  I guess I will have to take notes on the next part! It is pretty EXCITING to watch them squirm as the gentleman presents his case! Live streaming! They are taking a break 'for the cameramen' and shall soon return to stream more!
