  Please help me verify quote!

  2. bible

  would you please help me see if the following quote is authentic.

  a scan would help if available.. "that they must adhere absolutely to the decisions and scriptural understandings of the society because god has given it this authority over his people.

  " (watchtower, may 1, 1972, p. 272).

  Memorial 2007, Part 1: Downplaying Jesus' Sacrifice

  from my blog: astonishingrealizations.blogspot.commemorial 2007, part 1: downplaying jesus' sacrifice "how are we going to treat the father from now on?".

  that was the biggest question at the memorial i attended on april 2, 2007. only by the grace of god did i not go berserk.

  i had prepared myself not to interfere in the proceedings, out of respect to my family and friends there.. .

  Baptisms (WT legal contract) null and void

  by Sacchiel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is there any truth that people under the age of eighteen cannot be held under a legal contract (which is what the wt views baptism as, a legally binding document to the society)?

  the result would be that individual cannot be disfellowshiped since that person was underage and above all, never even signed a document.

  is this applicable in the us at least?.

  Elders/MS, what would you do?

  by Sacchiel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i understand there are active elders and ministerial servants on these boards.

  if a witness spoke with you in private about doubts/questions they have about wts doctrine or the like, would you encourage that person to continue investigating?

  what if that witness outright declared the organization as a wicked or not directed by god?.

  1. jw
  2. friends

  for the first time in my life and it was memorable.

  it was a relief to hear the bible being preached, the bible alone!!

  i don't think any jw's can picture that.
