Watchtower 15th May 1991 p5.....At 1 Corinthians 11:3, The Bible says: "The head of every man is the Christ; in turn the head of a woman is the man; in turn the head of the Christ is God." If you are a husband, you have the God-given responsibility to be the principal decision-maker in your family. But this does not give any husband license to be oppressive or dictatorial.

Watchtower 1st Dec 1960 p717......According to the Bible, a wife is her husband's property, particularly in the case where a bride price is paid for her. That is why a married woman is Scripturally called "beulah," this word really meaning "owned" as a wife. The masculine form of this word is "baal," which even today in modern Israel is the Hebrew word for "husband." The title really means "owner, master, lord."

Family belief as a Jehovah's Witness?

There is no such thing as "family belief as a Jehovah witness." Each individual person, young or old, single or married, either inside or outside one's immediate family, must make their own decisions regarding his or her personal relationship with Jehovah God. And certainly, it is not uncommon to have families who are not in religious harmony. So, is this a question or a statement?


Patient that is under arrest and is unable to make medical decisions who makes the decisions to decide the medical care?

This person needs to have a Healthcare Proxy. This is someone who will make ONLY their medical decisions, and is court appointed. Usually the court will appoint a family member. A person who is under arrest still has the autonomy to make their own medical decisions, Only a person who is incompetent (determined by the court), or who does not have capacity (determined by a physician) can NOT make their own medical decisions. If you wish to become this persons health care decision maker, you need to seek the necessary forms to become their healthcare proxy (most hospitals have the forms or should at least be able to tell you how to get them).

Can a jehovahs witness's talk to a parent that is disfellowedshipped?

Yes, of course they can. The bible says that one must care for their family. Just because they are disfellowshipped doesn't mean their children can't have anything to do with them. However, some children of the disfellowshipped person limit the time they spend with their parents in case they get persuaded to leave the congregation.
