THE WORK OF SONS OF THE "ALTAR" (2).

Congregational meeting places for people of God should be carefully chosen. Those with faith of good quality would not consider a location where food unclean for human consumption had been sold (a local butchery). Pig flesh is an unclean offering. But that is what a congregation of JWs chose.  (Isaiah 66:17 NEB).

As to other behavioural examples among so-called 'baptized' JWs that show the poor quality of their faith, they are manifold. It is not surprising that the worst dispositions are found among those thirsting for an audience, glorifying themselves in public speeches, and suffering each other's moral poverty and impropriety the rest of the time. As to the mercy and the forgiveness of God, these do not give licence for their continuance in Godless forms of conduct in His Name.  (Jude V.4)

I have witnessed the hypocrisy of members of this particular cult    from the lesser improprieties, such as the woman who had the habit of reading from a list hanging on her kitchen door reminding her of the "fruitage of the spirit" she was next to practice (to arouse her sterile emotions) rather than show them freely from her heart    to the sacrilegious abomination of appointing an unsealed man to serve as an 'elder' whom they knew was of unsound mind and an incurable SCHIZOPHRENIC !  (1 Tim 3:2.  Mal 1:14).

Although religiously educated over many years, members of this sect placate their consciences with the belief that they can talk their way out of any of these sins. They cannot. When their unacceptable behaviour was made known to the offenders, rather than make the necessary spiritual readjustments, they retorted with bitter recriminations.

The purpose of leading a Christian life is to be spiritually created to inherit a heavenly spirit "body".  (1 Cor 15:44  49). Our spirit offerings while suffering in our physical bodies are the means we have been given to achieve this. The "Little Scroll" contains the spiritual instructions from Jehovah to defeat the spirit rebellion of mankind, especially during the "time of the end".  (Rev 10:8-11).

As for those who have misused the Law of God, they will be taken by surprise. The contempt they have shown for God by being involved in the changing of His "times and Law" will bring them continual torment, as they must "learn the truth through torments after death."  (2 Esdras 9:9  12 NEB.  Dan 7:25). Those actively promoting apostasy denounced by the "Little Scroll" can only inherit Ge.hen'na.

"And a reed like a rod was given me as he said: "Get up and measure the temple sanctuary of God and the altar and those worshiping in it. But as for the courtyard that is outside the temple sanctuary, cast it clear out and do not measure it, because it has been given to the nations, and they will trample the holy city underfoot for forty-two months. And I will cause my two witnesses to prophesy a thousand two hundred and sixty days dressed in sackcloth.""  (Rev 11:1-3).

AND I HAVE DONE EXACTLY THAT.
