  so the wt used ex 1:6 to define a generation from the very beginning.

  then in the this september broadcast the same person (splain) who spent 20 min with charts to explain a generation, makes a point that joseph and his brothers were very close in age?

  (min 4:29).

  Question about reporting fellow JWs.

  by maninthemiddle in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have searched but not found an answer yet.

  does anyone remember what scriptures they base reporting another person's "wrongdoing" to the elders?.

  i put "wrongdoing" in quotes so i could user their term and you could be reported for anything.. i know they have used the scripture about going to the person first, that is rarely followed, i know it is common practice to tell on eachother, i just can't remember if they even pretend to make it scriptual.. thanks.

  It appears that I am being hunted down (visited by two elders)

  by maninthemiddle in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  recently two elders caught my wife at the door while i was away.

  they mentioned the need to talk to me about something on facebook.

  yes, i know how facebook can be, but i choose to use it anyway.. the strange thing is, i just spent a alot of time looking at it, and nothing is publicly available, so unless a one spouse of an inactive jw is looking at it, i don't see how they were able to get this information.. anyway, that wasn't my real question.. i haven't been to any kh in over 2 years, i haven't seen the elder (24 year old) in about two years and don't even know the other (he is recently out of bethel, but older 50ish?)..
