Scriptural Separation by Earnest on

SolaceRe: Scriptural Separation


The teaching has changed quite a bit since I was young. I grew up with no father because in the 70s, when my father left us, The W.T.S at the time taught that in order to be scriptually free to remarry my J.W. mother would have to prove adultry and that abandonment was not enough. She spent 10 years of our lives searching for him, hiring a privet investegator just to proove that he had slept with someone else so we could get on with our lives. I now understand as you also pointed out that J.W.s can divorce for much lesser reasons nowadays. I dont know if my mother knows this, and if she remained single for no reason for 10 years. She may but is just in denile about the whole thing. With the ever changing doctrines its hard to find consistancy in anything. You will also notice that most of the changes only benifit the W.T.S. The 3rd reason you mentioned being able to seperate if your mate doesnt support your being a J.W. How awfully clever of them to throw that one in. This is just another example of how the W.T.S is controlling peoples lives where they have no buisness doing so. They would do just about anything to increase the size of their organization. That would mean more $ for them.
