This podcast was recorded on Christmas Day 2008.
After our last visit from two local elders my wife felt she could no longer be known as a Jehovah's Witness and had chosen to disassociate herself in November 2008.
We had been on a family holiday and had returned to find that one of the local elders who had visited us had warned off my mother-in-law from having anything to do with my wife - her daughter. He also made false statements about one of my children.
I decided to confront this elder at the Kingdom Hall. This podcast is the recording of our conversation.
Notice how he denies making such statements to my mother-in-law and falsely accuses me of teaching her beliefs contrary to Jehovah's Witnesses.
Notice too his view of choosing not to be a Jehovah's Witness is a sin or not. He also clearly states his position regarding the worship of Jesus.
I firmly believe that as a result a result of this conversation this elder initiated judicial proceedings against me the following month.
Podcasts from this judicial hearing will follow shortly.
