Why do JWs ignore 1 Timothy 5v8 and shun members of their own immediate family if those members have walked away from Watchtower teachings?
Chiddle
Answer 1:
Those that voice their discord with official Jehovah's Witness doctrine and attempt to subvert the faith of others by propagating their personal views within the organisation in an attempt to turn others away may be disfellowshipped.
Non believers or individuals that were raised in families (by JW parents) but that were never actually baptised Witnesses are not disfellowshipped.
Answer 2:
Voluntarily leaving the Jehovah's Witness organisation is not viewed as motive for "disfellowshipping" (shunning). People are disfellowshipped from the JW organisation for unrepentent acts such as child abuse, adultery or for smoking, drug use or theft.

Why was the watchtower contractual member from 1991 till 2001 of the United Nations who is according to the watchtower the beast of Babylon who is the embodiment of evil?
The Watchtower and Bible Tract Society basically had a library card - access to the UN library - for research purposes. After the UK Guardian newspaper published an article that brought to public light this association with the UN as an NGO.The Watchtower then cancelled their access to the UN records in 2001. They never had any interest in being UN members themselves, they just wanted access to the information in their records. The cost became too high and they pulled out - maintaining their neutrality.
Do all Christians believe in the holy ghost?
This may be a loaded question in some ways. It depends on how you define Christian. Members of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society consider themselves to be Christian even though they do not accept the deity of Christ, and they do not accept the Spirit [Holy Ghost] either. Christians who do believe in the trinity may exclude the Watchtower members from the list of Christians. So, who makes who's list? That will settle the question for you (but maybe not for the people you exclude).
