Eldste kraftig fjerne andre eldre for å lese fra Bibelen ikke er laget av Vakttårnet!

 

Følgende rekonstruerer en konto fortalt meg den 28. mai 2010, over telefon av en eldre, unimpeachable tidligere Jehovas vitner nå kristne søster til der det ble også gitt via telefon, og det viser hvor paranoide og i hva en "heks jakt" stemningen Vakttårnet er fra toppen ned i sitt lokale rike haller.

 

Nylig, eventuelt i Ohio (ikke sikker) en Jehovas vitner eldre siterte en skrift under en tale på den plattformen som et kongedømme hall. En annen eldre spurte hva oversettelsen han brukte fordi skriften er så annerledes på grunn av forvrengningen gitt det når mistranslated av Vakttårnet.

 

Den eldste gi snakk sa "The New International Version."

 

I avhør eldste sa: "Men vi bruker ikke det. Vi bruker bare den nye verden-oversettelsen. Bruk det."

 

Den eldre svarte "Nei, dette er fine."

 

Så snart han gikk fra plattformen to andre eldste klemt ham i mellom dem, med armene låst over ryggen hans og på den måten de trakk ham med kroppslige ut av riket hallen. De senere disfellowshipped ham.

 

Menigheten har vært polarisert over dette. Selvfølgelig de eldste som kastet tapre pro-Bibelen eldre har klappet seg på ryggen for å være så super-fint i viser den søte frukter av rettferdighet, og fortalte forsamlingen om ikke å snakke om den til andre JWS.

 

I stedet deres "rettferdighet" blir sett på som viser hva moderne fariseere de er og ord av hva de gjorde nå er kommet hit på internett betyr det kommer rundt planeten selv når du leser dette.

 

Søsteren forteller meg dette bemerket hvor modig den disfellowshipped eldre. Det er faktisk tilfelle, men må du også huske på at det er enda mer effektivt å sende et brev til alle i et kongedømme sal (er) med informasjon i det de trenger å vite. Prøver av slike brev er på dette og andre sider av dette nettstedet eller skrive din egen. De vil bli lest og virker.

 

Muligens noen av dere lesere vil gå langs denne historien, en sann historie, om en modig eldste som bryr seg mer for Bibelen selv enn en oversettelse som er full av hull med mange vendinger og galt wordings i den. Bare ta det i et brev med noen andre opplysninger av interesse.

DYRT BRØDRE, SØSTRE, VENNER: Vores fælleskab giver glæde uanset forskellige trosretninger (GA 5:22), og Kristne Vidners egne overbevisninger er frihed til at afvige forenet med kærlighed (Ro 14:1-5; Co 3:14); opstandelse til himlen eller jord; invitere venlige folk til at læse i Bibelen i hjemmet eller andre steder (Mt 28:19, Ro 16:1), bede, spise sammen, hjælpe de nødlidende. (GA 2:10) Herren er en respektfuld titel, Guds navn er undertiden givet som Jehova eller Yahweh, (Ps 83:18, KJ), selv om Paulus siger at kalde Gud "Abba", der er Far i aramæisk og Kristus i Herrens bønner ikke klart siger, bede til "Vor Fader i himlen." (Mt 6:9) Grupper af to eller flere kristne, kan genkende og udpege tjenester til alle villige velrænomerede ældre, der er ældste. (1Tim 3; Ac 6:5) De tjener som vores ansatte eller ministre, men Kristus er vores eneste højeste, overordnede Leader, mest loyale og diskrete slave. (Mt 23:10; 24:45)

 DEAR BROTHERS, SISTERS, FRIENDS: Our fellowship offers joy regardless of different beliefs (Ga 5:22), and Christian Witnesses' own beliefs are freedom to differ united by love (Ro 14:1-5; Co 3:14); resurrection to heaven or earth; inviting friendly people to Bible readings in homes or elsewhere(Mt 28:19, Ro 16:1), praying, sharing meals, helping the needy. (Ga 2:10)  Lord is a respectful title, God's name is sometimes given as Jehovah or Yahweh, (Ps 83:18, KJ) although Paul says to call God "Abba" which is Dad in Aramaic and Christ in the Lord's Prayer does clearly say pray to "Our Father in heaven."  (Mt 6:9)  Groups of two or more Christians can recognize and appoint to services any to all willing, reputable older ones, that is elders.  (1Tim 3; Ac 6:5) They serve as our servants or ministers, but Christ is our only top, overall Leader, the MOST Faithful and Discreet Slave. (Mt 23:10; 24:45)

 ALARM! Disse er fakta om de ledende mænd i Vagttårn selskabet over Jehovas Vidner. De er farlige for børn af Jehovas Vidner og offentligheden. De giver ordrer til de lokale ledere af Jehovas Vidner. De lokale ledere er kaldet ældste. Deres ledere skjuler og beskytter pædofile blandt Jehovas Vidner i stedet for at fortælle andre Jehovas Vidner, hvem de pædofile er. Den pædofile kan lettere skade børnene. Nogle ældste fra Vagttårn Selskabet er også pædofile. (Bekræft på silentlambs.org eller google.com)

Nogle kilder anslår, at fra 1945 indtil nu cirka 250.000 JWs og deres børn er døde efter at nægte blodtransfusioner i nødsituationer. (ajwrb.org; bogen blod på alteret af David A. Reed) Hvorfor? Vagttårn Selskabets ledere underviser at skrifterne siger at man skal afholde sig fra blod. Men de underviser ikke på samme tid 1 Samuel 14:31-35. Der viser at Gud tilgav Saul's mænd, der spiste kød med blod i det for at holde sig i live. Kristus siger også i Mattæus 12:7, at Gud ønsker barmbhjertighed ikke slagtofre. Vagttårn Selskabets ledere giver også ordre om, at Jehovas Vidner skal UNDGÅ andre Jehovas Vidner, der på fredelig vis er uenige i troen. Dette har ofte ødelagte familier af Jehovas Vidner.

Der er gode ældstes og andre Jehovas Vidner, men Vagttårn Selskabets ledere er til fare for både Jehovas Vidner og offentligheden. Husk, at mange Jehovas Vidner også er ofre for Vagttårn Selskabet. Doner ikke penge, der hjælper Vagttårn Selskabet. Hvis du ønsker at hjælpe deres børn og børn af det offentlige, kan du donere for at hjælpe andre grupper eller silentlambs.org. Du har også tilladelse til at lave og distribuere kopier af dette. Det er fra kristne af forskellige trosretninger. Vi er enige i vejen til Kristus er kærlighed. Også familier og børn har brug for information for at være trygge og glade.

ALERT!  These are facts about the main men in the Watchtower Society over Jehovah’s Witnesses.  They endanger the children of Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Public.  They give orders to the local leaders of Jehovah’s Witnesses.   The local leaders are called the Elders.  Their leaders hide and protect pedophiles among Jehovah’s Witnesses instead of tell other Jehovah’s Witnesses who the pedophiles are.  The pedophiles can more easily hurt the children.  Some Elders of the Watchtower Society are also pedophiles.  (Confirm at silentlambs.org or google.com) 


Some sources estimate that from 1945 until now approximately 250,000 JWs and their children have died after refusing emergency blood transfusions.  (ajwrb.org; the book Blood On The Altar by David A. Reed)  Why?  Watchtower Society leaders teach scriptures that say to abstain from blood.  But they do not at the same time teach 1 Samuel 14:31-35.  It shows God forgave Saul’s men who ate meat with blood in it to stay alive.  Also Christ says at Matthew 12:7 that God wants Mercy not Sacrifice.   Watchtower Society leaders also order Jehovah’s Witnesses to shun other Jehovah’s Witnesses who peacefully dissent in beliefs.   This has often destroyed families of Jehovah’s Witnesses. 


There are good Elders  and other Jehovah’s Witnesses, but the Watchtower Society’s leaders endanger both Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Public.  Please remember that many Jehovah’s Witnesses are victims of the Watchtower Society, too.  Do not donate any money that helps the Watchtower Society.  If you want to help their children and children of the Public, please donate to help other groups or silentlambs.org.  You also have permission to make and distribute copies of this.   It is from Christians of different beliefs.  We agree the way of Christ is love.  Also families and children need information to stay safe and happy.

The church of Jehovah's Witnesses is exploiting the critical situation facing many of the nation's refugees by evangelising to them in asylum centres. So says Mohammed-Reza Taremian, chairman of the Århus Integration Council, in an interview with MetroXpress.


‘When they tell refugees that everything will be fine, and that it's easier to gain asylum status if they listen to the Jehovah's Witnesses, that's exploiting their situation. They're being tricked,’ said Taremian.


Taremian says the Jehovah's Witness movement deliberately targets weak refugees, and is familiar with several cases where asylum seekers were ‘tricked’ into the religious movement during their stays at asylum enters.


Anette Haugaard, press director at the Danish Red Cross asylum department, confirmed that Jehovah's Witnesses had created problems at the centres.

‘Refugees at the Sandholm Centre feel harassed by the Jehovah's Witnesses. We don't have a reliable overview of the problem right now, but we have prohibited the Jehovah's Witnesses from spreading propaganda in our centres,’ Haugaard said.


Former longtime Jehovah's Witness Poul Dal said that the movement began a directed campaign toward refugees as early as the mid-1990s.


‘We took note of where they lived, and made sure to contact them again. The refugees' vulnerable situation was used,’ Dal told Politiken.

Jehovah's Witness spokesman Erik Jørgensen confirmed the group's visits to refugees.

‘The fact that refugees are in a difficult situation means they need support and help. But they're not victims. We're not exploiting them,’ said Jørgensen.

Accusations about sexual molestation in Jehovah's Witness family
Accusations about sexual molestation can lead to disfellowshipping


A tragic family conflict is at the moment being carefully observed by Jehovah's Witnesses and former members of the sect. It revolves around a fathers alleged sexual molesting his daughters and murder. The former Witnesses are wondering if the Watchtower Society will take the accusations serious. According to former Witnesses and other critics Jehovah's Witnesses routinely covers up crimes of this nature.


By Anne Korsholm


Something indicates that the local Elders will be forced to do something this time, says Ppol Dal, which himself has been an Elder in Jehovah's Witnesses but has now left the sect.


Head of Information from Jehovah's Witnesses in Denmark, Erik Joergensen do not understand the criticism. According to him the Witnesses has always taken accusations of child molestation very serious.


The alleged perpetrator is a 78-year-old man from Vesterhimmerland, which has been accused of sexually molesting his daughters. One of the daughters claims that she gave birth to a child as a result of the abuse, and that the 78-year-old man killed the baby.


Both the father and the daughters are Jehovah's Witnesses.


Loekstoer Police has dismissed the case because of lack of evidence. Among other things it has been impossible to ascertain if there has been born a baby, which was allegedly killed. According to the support group for ex-Witnesses, Christian Freedom, also a grandchild of the 78 year old man has reported him to the police for molesting her. The Police will neither to confirm nor deny this.


Convicted for silence


Jehovah's Witnesses in both USA and Europe have been criticized in later years in connection with sexual abuse, because the Witnesses apparently has held such accusations within the closed doors of the Kingdom Hall and not reported them to the police and worldly authorities.

In 1998, 3 Elders (Jehovah's Witnesses priest’s) in France convicted to imprisonment because they did not report a Witness, which had molested his daughter to the Police. The Witness had showed repentance and gotten Jehovah’s – and the Elders forgiveness. He did not receive forgiveness from the French authorities but 12 years in prison.

In the USA there has been a number of reports about pedophile Jehovah's Witnesses, which has been protected by their leadership, apparently so that the cases of sexual abuse wouldn’t hurt the sects reputation. According to Christian Freedoms latest periodical there is now so many victims that a former Elder in Jehovah's Witnesses in the USA has founded an organization for their benefit, “Silent Lambs”.


Witnesses are taught to go to the Elders in the congregation with their problems and not to worldly authorities. It is therefore very important that the local Elders take such accusations serious. Often an internal investigation about child molestation have ended because there was no eyewitnesses, and Jehovah's Witnesses demands 2 or 3 witnesses, for a person to be convicted.

Internal punishment


Erik Joergensen says that eyewitnesses isn’t the only criteria fro Jehovah's Witnesses to take a case serious.

We will normally hear both parties in a case, we will talk to people who are close to those involved when the alleged abuse happened. If the circumstances strongly indicate that there has been abuse or the accused confess to it, it will be counted as a fact. He says.


Apparently Jehovah's Witnesses internal investigation has been set in motion in this case. According to B.T. an internal court consisting of local Elders, which is to decide if the 78 year old man is going to be disfellowshipped.


Erik Joergensen haven’t heard about this, but he can confirm that if the 78 year old is found guilty by the Police, he will most likely be disfellowhipped – possibly together with his wife, if she knew about the abuse.


Jehovah's Witnesses is first and foremost a religious society – not a court of law. We look at it as our first priority to help this family, so it can live together, he emphasizes.


In the last row


Disfellowshipping doesn’t mean that the Witness have to leave the sect and about half of all disfellowhipped remains Jehovah's Witnesses, says Erik Joergensen.


A disfellowhipped lose all positions and the congregation as a social network. The Disfellowhipped can attend the meetings in the Kingdom Hall without the right to comment and without socializing.


After some time the disfellowhipped can apply for becoming a part of the congregation again, and the elders are sovereign in their decision if and when he is to be allowed into the warmth again.

Poul Dal, was himself an Elder and participated in disfellowshipping Witnesses which had violated the rules. He can remember that he was participating in disfellowshipping a man, which had divorced and then remarried.


This cost him 3 years on the last row in the Kingdom Hall. But you can also be disfellowhipped for buying a flagpole and hoist the flag or if you receive a blood transfusion. I was disfellowhipped in 1995, because I didn’t believe that Jehovah's Witnesses was the only channel used by God, says Poul Dal.


The Witnesses can often avoid being disfellowhipped if they quickly show repentance, but according to Erik Joergensen this will not be the case if they have committed sexual abuse and murder.
