REQUEST: Link to Funeral Talk Outline

by AudeSapere in

jw
friends

can someone please send me a link to the outline for the funeral talk?i'm on my cell phone and having trouble using the search function.

jwleaks

This should be easier to read on a smartphone:

FUNERAL DISCOURSE

REMARKS REGARDING THE DECEASED (Use any that apply and are appropriate.)

Details regarding age, birth, when married, and so forth

By whom the deceased is survived

Dedication record, including privileges of service

Exemplary qualities displayed by the deceased (Eccl. 7:1)

THE HOPE THE DECEASED ENTERTAINED

Worshiped Jehovah, the God of wisdom, justice, love, power

Had faith in Jesus Christ (Acts 4:12)

Appreciated God’s purpose regarding earth (Gen. 1:28)

Sure to be realized (Isa. 11:9; 55:10, 11; Rev. 21:4)

Why good people die Disobedience of Adam (-Gen. 3:19; contrast with Genesis 2:7.)

Offspring inherited death (Rom. 5:12)

Condition of the dead Soul is mortal (Ezek 18:4, 20)

Dead are unconscious (Ps. 146:4; Eccl. 3:19; 9:5, 10)

The resurrection hope made possible by sacrifice of Jesus Christ (Matt. 20:28)

Christ’s resurrection a guarantee (1 Cor. 15:22, 23)

God uses Jesus to raise the dead (John 5:28, 29)

For the anointed, resurrection is to heavenly life (1 Cor. 15:51-54; Rev. 20:4, 6)

“Other sheep” resurrected to life in earthly Paradise (Luke 23:43; John 10:16)

Armageddon survivors can hope to see the deceased one again soon, others too are in line for resurrection (Acts 24:15)

WHY IT IS GOOD TO GO TO HOUSE OF MOURNING

Can comfort the bereaved; loss is mutual
Take to heart uncertainty of life (Ps. 90:12; Eccl. 7:2)
Makes us think about how we are using our life

HOW WE CAN BENEFIT FROM BEING HERE

While living, make good name with Jehovah God (Eccl. 7:1)

Lay up treasures in heaven (Matt. 6:19-21)

One way is to take zealous part in witness work, if qualified (Matt. 24:14; 28:19, 20)

In this way and by godly conduct, we contribute to sanctification of Jehovah’s name (Prov. 27:11)

Resurrection hope an incentive to learn and do divine will (l Cor. 15:58)

(Note: Instead of eulogizing the deceased, use the material in this outline to give a fine witness concerning the truth. Good balance should be observed in this regard. Doctrinal points can be presented as beliefs of the deceased, which served as motivation for him. Purpose of talk is to uphold Jehovah God as a God of love and mercy and at the same time bring comfort to the bereaved. Use of a song such as No. 102 (53) or 187 (93) is optional. A brief prayer at the close is fitting When arrangement is made to go to the grave, it is well to consider quite briefly the hope through the Kingdom, reading one or two scriptures, such as Job 14:14, 15 and 1 Corinthians 15:5413-57. This service may also be closed with prayer, thanking Jehovah for the resurrection hope, which is of great comfort. The talk need not exceed 30 minutes.)

How are Pro-JW sites handling the RC situation ???

by RubaDub in

sorry as this topic may have been covered many times but any thoughts or links to other topics on how the pro-jw websites are commenting on this.. rub a dub.

jwleaks

The nonlink on JW.org worked real good for me! As expected, I found out absolutely nothing from the sole channel of "truth" in the entire planet.

Evidently Geoffrey Jackson is in charge of the web site. Part of his ultimate power within the religion over all and sundry, including the Watchtower Society in Australia.

Many JW's have been following the ARC on the official JW web site. It contains all the information and reports that have been approved by the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses for publication:

Theocratic Warfare

by stuckinarut2 in

no doubt we noticed the royal commission ask vin toole (and i think terry o'brien) about the expression "theocratic warfare"?.

they were asked to explain it and what is meant to witnesses.. vin outrightly lied when he said he "had never heard of that expression!".

i remember him using that term in conversations and talks many times!!

ARC: why the contstant secrecy?

by SecretSlaveClass in

anyone watching the inquiry would have heard the org's attorney asking that the documents outlining the stucture and mechanics of the wbts be kept confidential.

all this subversive and clandestine behavior is not helping their image.

what do you all suppose is potentially damnimg in these documents?

jwleaks

sparrowdown - Re finacial documents: The Commission is hoping to put together a redress scheme to compensate victims.
If it goes ahead,it's likely the organization will contribute according to number of members and size of bank account.

Methinks any redress scheme or co-contributing scheme administered by the Australian government (currently being considered for religions) will be based on the number of ordained ministers within each religious community.

If that's the case the JW's will have to co-contribute more than all other religions put together. If they present an argument for just elders / ministerial servants, then they will still have to co-contribute more than any other religion. Seems reasonable as it has been revealed they have more child abuse problems than any other religion in Australia.

If 7000 JW's (elders, co's, servants, pioneers, bethelites) came under the scheme that would equate to $700,000.00 per annum per $100.00 of the insurance premium. Ministers of religion have the highest premiums for insurance against child abuse.

Their insurance could easily be $1,000 per annum, which for JW's would be $7 million per year - which is probably the same amount they currently 'donate' to GB operated charities outside of Australia.

Did you hear that!? His Honour is insisting that Jackson attend the Royal Commission

by umbertoecho in

i actually started clapping at that point, as his honour explained to the wt type creep sycophantic slithery lawyer that........" i understand that we all have issues to face in life and .....that is a part of life...........however it has become obvious that this man ....is in such a position to assist with this investigation.....".

it boils down to the fact that stewart outright accused the latest witness of misleading the royal commission and this lead to some document searches which led his honour to conclude that they had been protecting mr jackson.

this was a warm and fluffy moment folks.................brilliant stuff!!!!!

jwleaks

Leapin Lizards I just saw the picture i posted with my name above it and thought someone was going to think it was me. Nooooo! That's supposed to be Jackson in drag.

With a name like "Dumplin" I just assumed it was a selfie. Once it's on the internet it's out there for life. Welcome to the forum.
