  my active jw wife has gone to all meetings, assemblies, memorials, and service groups by herself after i faded off the radar about 5 years ago.

  i asked her this past saturday as she prepared to join another sister from the kh for the service group regarding, voluntary donations.

  i inquired if publishers still mention this to the householder when placing literature.

  467-468 maintaining a balanced viewpoint toward disfellowshiped ones.

  5 it is right to hate the wrong committed by the disfellowshiped one, but it is not right to hate the person nor is it right to treat such ones in an inhumane way.suppose, then, a member of a christian congregation boating on a lake were to see another boat containing a disfellowshiped person capsize, throwing the disfellowshiped one into the water where he struggled to stay afloat.

  Blood Transfusions First A Personal Matter – Then Became A Disfellowshipping Offense

  by baldeagle in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for a number of years in jw history it was taught that having a blood transfusion was a matter of personal choice that an individual made between him/her and god.

  it was not to be anybody elses business.

  blood transfusions were frowned upon by the wts leadership (wt july 1, 1945 pages 199-200).

  JW’s So Gullible & Yet Hopeful Wanting To Believe They Are Right

  by baldeagle in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  1959 jehovah's witnesses in the divine purpose pg.

  252. for many years it had been the view of the watchtower that the faithful men of old who served god faithfully before jesus' time would be raised from the dead even before armageddon to join in organizing jehovah's modern-day people and to share in shouldering the remnant'sresponsibility of representing the lord jesus christ in the capacity of overseers of the flock of god on earth.

  these men were variously referred to as "ancient worthies," "faithful men of old," and "the princes" in the light of psalm 45:16. .
