Basically, from what I can tell from the new Return to Jehovah Brochure, is that the Governing Body is now offering AMNESTY to ANYONE who has been gone from the Congregation but now wants to return.
It claims it doesn't matter what sins you've done, or what caused you to leave, if you repent to Jehovah and ask the Elders to help you, and return to the Meetings, you'll be warmly welcomed with no disciplinary action or judgment against you.
Screw the GB, they have zero authority and therefore cannot offer amnesty to anyone. They need to wake up to reality and realize that this delusion that they can somehow intervene for other humans is a sick joke.
They act like they are doing everyone a favor by offering to pardon sins. They are not. They are delusional and have never offered an apology for their contribution to people leaving. The World Wide Church Of God wrote a real apology, the GB should read it. Then they should stop deflecting and passing the buck. Until they do so, their words mean jack-shit.
The brochure is 100% PR.

Dude, what planet are you from?
Amnesty! Ha ha ha ha ha!
"Warmly welcomed"! Yeah, if by "warmly welcomed" you mean "Invited into the back room by 3 elders who will determine if you are 'repentant enough' to merit their approval".
Dude! Pass that dutchie 'pon the left-hand-side over this way!
Amnesty! LOL!
I edited my post because I accused you of being an apologist for the WTBTS. Although your posts seem to defend them in a passive-agressive manner, I can't actually say you are a troll.
Forgive me for being suspicious of a new member. You seem to be defending them at times, but it may just be your writing style.
I'm not defending them. Like Gerrit Loesch, I say, " I am not, nor have I ever been under the authority of the WTBTS."
These a**holes and their lawyers can suck it. Show up in court like the apostle Paul and like Peter!! Defend your beliefs GB! Go to jail for your faith, if that's what it takes!! Be proud to be a JW !! Or are you too afraid to become cannon fodder, the fate which you have assigned to the rank&file J-dumbs?!?!

Too Little, Too Late.
Punch me in the stomach and then invite me back for another session of "love"?
No thanks.
Get Behind Us Governing Body, satan, you think men's thoughts and not God's. You believe you can not only pull the wool over the publishers eyes but now those you have murdered by your hypocrisy and crass self-worship as well?
Keep your soft-touch brochure it means nothing. You want to get the inactive back? You already know how..imitate Jesus! But that's too hard for those who never knew him in the first place.

A positive change is good, but you can't expect a pat on the back for FINALLY fixing your own F***K-UPS, especially when you made the claim that you are the channel of GOD.
NOPE!! NOT GOOD ENOUGH!!!

Yea, right - If you believe that - perhaps I can interest you in a bridge that you can add to your investment portfolio for a small price.
It claims it doesn't matter what sins you've done, or what caused you to leave, if you repent to Jehovah and ask the Elders to help you, and return to the Meetings,
Your a Piece Of Garbage ..But..
.........WE`RE HERE TO HELP..

By what right are they offering forgiveness? Are they administering the ransom? Do they have the gavel?
We will have confessionals and be offered absolution next. And they say there is no clergy!
