Jehovah's Witness whose wife died after refusing blood transfusion is jailed for 13 years over child sex abuse covered up by religion's elders

a jehovah's witness who sexually abused a child and then had his wrongdoing covered up by the church has been jailed for 13 years.. gordon leighton, 53, admitted sexually abusing a child when he was confronted with the allegations by church elders at washington, tyne and wear.. the elders knew about the 53-year-old's admissions for three years but refused to co-operate with the criminal investigation, and said what they had heard was confidential.. leighton hit the headlines in the 1990s when his wife yvonne, 28, died after refusing a blood transfusion after childbirth on religious grounds.judge penny moreland said that he had subjected his victim to 'untold damage' as she sentenced him at newcastle crown court today.. the judge said: 'you manipulated her with a combination of affection and attention and violence and threats.

'the defendant was found guilty of two charges of indecency with a child and six of indecent assault after a trial.

Finally some justice is being done, and I am extremely happy that the news is reporting that the other elders were trying to hinder the investigation. They should be disfellowshipped for supporting a sinner rather than letting Caesar do his job. Like they quote Jesus in saying: Pay Caesar's money to Caesar. How about letting Caesar arrest a criminal? They are very quick in hiding a pedophile and lying to the authorities. Atleast the prostitute Rahab in the Bible was trying to hide spies who believed in the true God. These elders are hiding a pedophile so that he can continue molesting and raping little children. If this was Jehovah's organization in Israelite times... he would've burned that man alive. But, the actions of the Governing Body, together with that of the elders in condoning child sex abuse shows that this is Satan's organization. Satan has their (JW's) minds and eyes blinded.

If you are a JW and reading this, do your research about the organization you so blindly have believed in. Please have an open mind, and block out all the crap that has been drilled into your brain through the WTBTS. Look at the facts that are presented to you through the same eyes when you watch the news about anything else.

Who really is the Faithful and Discreet slave? - lets examine the logic

by Melagomania in

nwt bible - matthew 24:45-51 says:.

45 who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?

46 happy is that slave if his master on arriving finds him doing so.

Melagomania

One more thing..... The slaves can appoint new slaves..... That part wasn't mentioned by Jesus. In 2012, a new GB member was appointed by the existing GB.

SAD news about OOMPA......

by redredrose in

jw
friends

our friend, oompa, has passed away.

just recieved the news a couple of hours ago, and have almost no details.

it happened today or yesterday, he took his own life.

Melagomania

We are all born naked, but the only thing we have while on earth is family. The WTBTS takes that away from all of us who have been victimized by this horrible cult. Oompa's death is a very sad reminder of how depression due to being shunned can lead to suicide. RIP Oompa. My condolences to the only true friends he had here on jehovahs-witnesses.net. We should keep fighting to get our families back from the grip of the Governing Body of Jehovahs Witnesses (Satan's channel on Earth). The way we can do that is through great tact. Give hints rather than direct facts, else the JW you are talking to might become defensive.

Is this a new WTBT$ child abuse case? Or did I miss it this past week?

wow..... very new..... The Police in the video was right. A child abuser is not always someone on the street. It could be someone the child shakes hand with everyday. The parents are at fault too by telling their children that they live in a spiritual paradise.

NWT Bible - Matthew 24:45-51 says:

45 “Who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time? 46 Happy is that slave if his master on arriving finds him doing so. 47 Truly I say to YOU, He will appoint him over all his belongings.

48 “But if ever that evil slave should say in his heart, ‘My master is delaying,’ 49 and should start to beat his fellow slaves and should eat and drink with the confirmed drunkards, 50 the master of that slave will come on a day that he does not expect and in an hour that he does not know, 51 and will punish him with the greatest severity and will assign him his part with the hypocrites. There is where [his] weeping and the gnashing of [his] teeth will be.

Lets examine the logic by following these steps....

lets look at the KJV version to understand everything in a better way. KJV Matthew 24:45 says: " Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?" - use the word household instead of domestics.
Imagine a man named John. John is a very rich man with a big house and lots of servants. He has a head-servant named Paul. So, John is going away on vacation, and gave specific instructions to Paul on how to maintain his household. Paul accepts all the instructions, and is expected to perform all his duties in the abscence of his master.
John goes away, and Paul takes care of everything, in the abscence of his master. During Jesus time, there were no cell phones, so obviously in the illustration we cannot imagine any type of communication that exists today. In other words, Paul is supposed to follow instructions that his master left behind.
The Faithful and Discreet slave according to Jesus' story was 1 slave (singular), and was supposed to work alone based on instructions previously received.
The Governing Body has 8 members and dont fall into that singular category.
The GB claims to be that Faithful and Discreet Slave feeding the master's household at the proper time. Yesterday's food is today's trash. What you ate yesterday can be toxic for you today. That's true in just 2 cases... physical food, and JW books.
The GB claims that they are receiving instruction and New Light from Jehovah himself. After Jesus' death, not even Paul received messages from Jehovah. None of the apostles ever communicated directly with the Almighty. The GB however claims to have the luxury of communicating directly with Jehovah.
If the Faithful and Discreet slave does not comply with the instructions received previously and beats the fellow slaves, his master will cut him into pieces (according to the KJV and NIV)
The Organization was not cleansed in 1919 because until 1925, they were celebrating christmas. JW's have been worshipping Jesus until 1950.

So..... There you have it. The GB cannot be the Faithful and Discreet Slave, not logically and not Biblically.
