Let's compare the sayings of Jesus and the modern day Governing Body

RULES & REGULATIONS

Imagine yourself still sitting at a Kingdom Hall meeting and turn to the book of Mark 7: 21-23. The sayings of Jesus are really profound. The scripture makes you think, reflect, enters your heart and produces results.

Today, you have your modern day Governing Body ( who supposedly are the mouthpiece for Jesus and Jehovah and provide spiritual food for the 8 million followers). If Jehovah really sends his holy spirit upon these seven men, is this silly and petty message they can come up with? All they do is place rules, regulations, and heavy human loads on its members. They really have no sayings of everlasting life.

Matthew 15:9

It is in vain that they keep worshipping me, for they teach commands of men as doctrines.’”

RULES & REGULATIONS

Here are some highlights from Anthony Morris’s rant:

“Worldly women … even some of our sisters now … what it is is this spanx, this skin-tight stuff they wear ... when they exercise. They leave their home and they’re jogging in this stuff … is that appropriate? To wear skin-tight spanx, or whatever they call it? It’s not modest … It’s really not appropriate….

“For these young fellas … it’s the metrosexual look … Metrosexual — that’s the tight suit jacket and the tight pants … and they are tight, I mean tight, all the way down to the ankles and that is not modest, brothers …

“This is a fact. The homosexuals that are designing these clothes—they like you in tight pants. That’s who likes it — not spiritual people.”

The Fall Guy

The mother of the JW harlots - the WTBTS - decides via its literature and its 7 puppets in Warwick which Bible teachings can be followed by JW's, and which ones can't!

Example:

Jesus said - If you know someone has committed a serious sin, resolve it between you and them alone. End of.

WTBTS says - Ignore what Jesus said at Matt. 18:15-17; we tell you what to do in such a situation. So if you know that someone has committed a juicy, serious sin, go and "talk to them" about it. Having "discussed" it, then tell them that they are compelled to confess to 3 elders via a Judicial Committee.

Can you imagine how many JW's would not be disfellowshipped each year if r&f JW's followed Jesus Christ's teaching - instead of obeying the "disgusting thing" in New York State?

This is typical of all religions. People go to religions to be more confused. If asked what is the meaning of Mathew 7:21-23 where prayer, preaching, and miracle performance are discouraged and disapproved, no religious leader would give correct explanation.

If simple, self-explanatory things such as this cannot correctly explained, How will they explain things such as purpose of life, nature of God ...etc

Sad to say TFG they don`t even do that ,they don`t approach the bro.or sis, at all but go straight to an elder themselves and make a complaint and then the elder goes to the person and says something like many have complained or observed such behaviour and it`s a cause for stumbling etc etc.

Brokeback Watchtower

I think Anthony Morris fixation with tight pants all the way down to the ankles, means that he's a leg man, and finds it a real turn on, it makes him think of doing things that Jehovah the sock puppet in his head hates. Maybe he is finding that his wife just ain't doin it for him and so has a wandering eye(especially for those brothers wearing tight pants in Italy). Jehovah(superego) his imaginary friend finds it disgusting because his Id wants to screw them all in a mass orgy.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Id,_ego_and_super-ego

The id, ego and super-ego are three distinct, yet interacting agents in the psychic apparatus defined in Sigmund Freud's structural model of the psyche.

The three parts are the theoretical constructs in terms of whose activity and interaction our mental life is described. According to this Freudian model of the psyche, the id is the set of uncoordinated instinctual trends; the super-ego plays the critical and moralizing role; and the ego is the organized, realistic part that mediates between the desires of the id and the super-ego.[1]

As Freud explained:

Cold Steel

When religions take root, they're generally intended to guide people in the words of Jesus or other prophets such as Moses and Muhammad. Some of the writings such as the Talmud, the hadiths of Muhammad and the commentaries are designed to lead people to a better understanding of their religion.

But when uninspired and largely uneducated men tend to go beyond the scriptures and add their own witless, inane and mindless thoughts to them simply because people have given them authority to do so, you get drivel. And if the men have enough authority, calling it drivel can get one in serious trouble because it constitutes rebellion.

If you were to sit down with an elder and say, "Look, those fellas in Brooklyn put out a lot of booklets and pamphlets, but where, really, did they get their authority from Jehovah? And why should we pay the same type of respect for what they have to say as the ancient church did the apostles? I mean, Peter I know, and Paul I know, but who are they? Who ordained them?

There are always those who are willing to step up to the plate, but these guys seemed to have chosen themselves.

Like the Book of Mormon for example.
