In the congregations of the Religious Society of Jehovah's Witnesses (NSSJ), a Notice was read in recent days, which was sent out by the Czech leadership of this society (the so-called branch) on December 18, 2024. [1] According to it "The branch has learned about steps being taken by the separate department of churches and religious societies of the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic, which could lead to the cancellation of the registration of our legal entity, NSSJ." According to the Notice, witnesses are threatened that the Ministry will act pursuant to the provisions of Section 22 of Act 3/2002 Coll., [2] which states under letter c) that “(1) The Ministry shall initiate proceedings to cancel the registration of a church and a religious society, … c) if a registered church and a religious society … carries out activities in violation of Section 3 letter a), Section 5 or Section 27 paragraph 5, …” The ministry considers the preaching and application of two doctrines as possible activities of Jehovah's Witnesses in violation of this law. The announcement states this in the following sentence: “The government states that it has reservations about several of our teachings, including (1) the application of the Bible principle of abstaining from … blood (Acts 15:28, 29) in cases where parents make decisions regarding minor children, and (2) the application of the Bible principle of limiting social contact with those who have been disfellowshipped or who have disassociated themselves from the congregation. (1 Cor. 5:11)” The words Notification refer to Section 5 of this Act, which in the part under letter e) states: A church or religious society whose teachings or activities pursue a violation of the law or the achievement of some goal in an unlawful manner may not be established and operate, especially if … e) it restricts the personal freedom of persons, especially by using psychological or physical pressure to create a dependency that leads to physical, psychological or economic harm to these persons or their family members, to damage their social ties, including limiting the psychological development of minors or limiting their right to education, or prevents minors from receiving health care appropriate to their health needs , …“ The Religious Information Service highlighted the parts that are likely to be discussed in the negotiations of the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic . The second part of the Announcement contains two pleas. The first of them calls for "any publisher in the Czech Republic who wishes to do so, to consider sending respectful letters containing a complaint against the threat of cancellation of the NSSJ registration, to the following state representatives: (1) the President of the Czech Republic, (2) the Prime Minister, (3) the Minister of Culture, (4) the Minister of Justice, (5) the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and (6) the separate Department of Churches and Religious Societies of the Ministry of Culture." In the second request, the branch calls on members to pray. Link to the article below.

So. Jehovah's Witnesses want Religious Freedom and are ready to liaise with Politicians to sway them to give them that right but They don't want their members to have such right when they decide to leave the Cult? Interesting. They want Mercy but they can't extend such Mercy. Their doctrines are against the Constitution of the Country. Against Fundamental Human Rights. Now, they want JWs to write letters to Politicians to speak against the Deregistration. Have they forgotten so soon how it turned out for them when they were asked to write to Putin in Russia? |

StillDtruth:Hypocrisy! You see these JWS? This is how different governments will start shining their torchlight on them when they notice the damage their doctrines do to people. The Denmark government is also shining their torch on them too. JWS will come out and say they are being persecuted because they are the One True Religion forgetting that Christians are persecuted for being Followers of Christ, Not over some stupid archaic doctrine with no basis in the Bible that destroy Families and go against Fundamental Human Rights. They also forget that they themselves persecute their members who choose to disagree with their leadership and doctrines and Leave the Cult. Good luck to them as they try to justify their breaking of the Laws of the Land. |

StillDtruth:Yes. Any religion that is not backed by God and Jesus will Fail. The Internet is just speeding things up. A revival is Coming. The JW Religion is dying. The Leaders are aware of this but the JWs are still ignorant thinking all is well. |
