Rules for Baptism.....
by TheApostleAK inthis is a spinoff from the "effective ministry" thread.. are the eligibility rules for baptism of a male candidate more tighter/tougher/stricter than for a female candidate??.
i've noticed in the 1.5 years i was a jw of situations where a woman was given the green light and a male was knocked back even though they both were working fulltime.
(they both were consistent in fs and both participated in the meetings).. anyone else experienced that?

Faith V Works.....my 2 cents..
by TheApostleAK inso what you guys are saying is that i can beat & rape my wife, bash my children, break the law, be a violent drunk, and as long as i have faith that jesus christ was the messiah and have faith in jehovah god, i can still be declared righteous????.
read carefully james 2:14-24. or don't you understand it or don't believe it?.
abraham and rahab were both declared righteous because of their works because they both had faith.. "faith accompanied by works"

Elders Manual...
by TheApostleAK inthis is a question for the legal eagles on here.
i've heard lately of court cases where a party was ordered to supply the other party with paperwork, information etc.
i was wondering, if someone took the wt to court over dfing, could they have the wt ordered to supply them with a copy of the elders manual?.

The baptism is off.....
by TheApostleAK intold by the elders yesterday that since i'm a official at a sports match on saturdays and i won't quit doing it (they mention it occasionally to me at meetings), that they won't be allowing me to get baptised the next assembly coming up.
it might matter if i was working 5 days a week but at the moment i'm only working 2 days......(i've already racked up 50 hours this month).
i remember a talk a while back with the theme "what prevents you from getting baptised?
