If you were undeniably anointed with holy spirit what would you do?
by Splash inso you have had some kind of supernatural revelation, a personal message from god and some miraculous sign that you have been personally chosen by the almighty, what would you do?.
would you be the same as every other wt'ite, dragging yourself to the meetings, getting your 10 hours in each month, maybe pioneering?.
listen!

Geoffrey Jackson said in answer to this question during his testimony before the Royal Commission:
34 Q. Is it not the case that had Jesus been asked about
35 a case of sexual abuse, he may have referred back to this
36 part of Deuteronomy and said that it's not required to have
37 two witnesses?
Jackson:
38 A. I certainly would like to ask Jesus that, and I can't
39 at the moment, I hope to in the future. But that's
40 a hypothetical question which, if we had an answer, then we41 could support what you said.
How can Jackson be so sure he will Have an opportunity in the future to ask Jesus any questions after he dies? He does not know for sure what is going to happen to him when he dies. He may not wake up in a resurrection to heaven or earth. But, no one on this earth will be able to check it; no one will know what has happened to him when he dies. This is something he is probably counting on - that no one on earth will be able to verify what has happened to him. So, he can say he hopes to ask Jesus a question in the future, because he knows no human will be able to refute his claim. -

Geoffrey Jackson. Seems he will be compelled to front up.
by umbertoecho inpray for brother jackson of the governing body!.
in todays news from australia it appears that, despite his previous declination to appear when invited, justice mcclellan from the australian royal commission on child sex abuse will officially summon brother geoffrey jackson to the stand after all.. ..... the commission was due to conclude its hearings into the jehovahs witnesses on wednesday but justice mcclellan said he will now call geoffrey jackson, a senior member of the churchs governing body in new york who is currently in australia, to appear next week.. .

I hope it happens, then feel a sick feeling that GJackson, GB member, will find some way out of it. Most people have been of the opinion that this will not happen.
Even if it causes a problem for the Congregations, he needs to take the stand and provide an answer. He should not hide, and refuse to answer. Period.

Hot Topic threads Pinned by a Moderator-Suggestion
by TakeOffTheCrown inthreads that are a "hot topic" should have the option of being pinned by a moderator.
those who are interested, can suggest to a moderator that the subject be pinned.
if a "hot topic" is not pinned, it is lost within a few hours.. most will go to page 1 or 2 (not many more pages) to see the latest topics.. is having a subject pinned an option for this database?.

To Simon, (off topic but relevant)
This subject is very important. Is there a way to be able to keep such a topic on the forefront; without it getting lost?
You have said that you do not want BTTT (Back To The Top) comments made in order to bring a subject back to the top.
Many new threads are being created on the same subject (such as this one) just to bring it back to the top.
This is not a criticism; just requesting help in this area.

First, Petraglyph, thanks for the information. It is very informative.
Those who respond, please try to be objective when you look at the breakdown of the chart provided by the Watchtower of the 1006 cases dating back to 1950.

Let me say from the start, child abuse is a heinous Crime. Anyone that would physically or sexually abuse a child, should be "PUT UNDER THE JAIL."
Now, there are possibly thousands of you on this forum; some of you are from Australia. What if the Royal Commission had the "Teeth" to prosecute those whose names appear on the list of 1006 cases; dating back to 1950. It is possible that some of you on this forum would either recognize some of the names on the list, your name may be listed, or someone in your family. Or, ones who were just teenagers at the time, messing around, etc.
Will it cause some to look over their shoulder?
I hope this issue will be resolved and children will be protected now and into the future.

If anyone knows how to upload the video of the brothers doing the Texas two-step on the kingdom hall stage to this forum for Village Idiot and others, I'd appreciate it (if it is allowed). Thanks. http://rutube.ru/video/6087817e25458c204428b5bcbf02d5b7/
I could not locate a copy of it on youtube.
