*** w83 7/15 p. 19 par. 13 Walking With God in a Violent World ***
13 Surely there could have been no stronger reason for using a sword than protecting the Son of God himself! Yet it was not God’s will for Jesus to be spared at that time. So when the apostle Peter used his sword against the slave of the high priest, Jesus told him: “Return your sword to its place, for all those who take the sword will perish by the sword.” (Matthew 26:52, 53; John 18:10, 11) Jesus thus made it plain that theocratic warfare from that time on was not to include the use of carnal weapons.

So true, Mephis, the subtleties of JW talk.... "relative freedom"
The WT HAS worked long and hard to ingrain these things into our heads.

The judge asks Tool: Have you always understood that? It is a general obligation on each citizen.

Why do all of US know about the Branch Organizational Manual, but the Legal Department doesn't, and the Service Desk doesn't?
Why do all of US know how it realllllly is? and they "don't"? Elders do not encourage people to go to the police, elders encourage "silence." "Keeping Jehovah's name clean" "Not bringing reproach on the congregation/ Jehovah's name" People who talk get disfellowshipped. People who testify in a trial get disfellowshipped. Stuart needs examples of these.
I have heard so many people say, so many times, "We can't bring reproach on Jehovah's name!" That is ingrained!
Elders read those Sheperding books like a Bible, they do "not go beyond what is written." It is followed word for word, and all the implications in the WT are in the back of their brain...
Have you ever noticed how many times that Rahab is brought up and studied in the WT and other publications? How she protected the spies by 'lying' about where they were? This is the subtle indoctrination, the repeated praising of such actions to "protect God's organization"... After all, she became one of Christ's ancestors, right? So how bad can 'lying' ("theocratic warfare") be?
