* Jehovah’s Witnesses refrain from meddling in politics. ⚖️?⚖️

That whole letter-writing campaign to influence Putin and his government to intervene and halt the ban on JWs in Russia ... what was that? Wasn't that political lobbying? Wasn't that meddling in political affairs?

No we did it in other times! Even during Hitler! We make NO COMPROMISE! If we meddle we take sides! Jesus Christ opposed his rulers! Yet, he proclaimed God's Kingdom as their Government only! So likewise we do! Opposition is for our determination to fight opposers to a Government we believe in!

“Because Christians can be loyal both to God and to earthly governments they can take oaths of allegiance to defend the Constitution, as is required of citizens in some countries in order to get a passport.” Watchtower 1964 Sep 15 p.551

“Christians refused to . . . sacrifice to the emperor’s genius—roughly equivalent today to refusing to salute the flag or repeat the oath of allegiance.” Watchtower 1975 Aug 15 p. 497

Learn what the Master says today! The light is brighter! You must see it? The Book we are now studying helps understand the light! Do you study the Bible with JW's or just attack without knowledge of the new light?

Oh dear, do you want to tell by this sentence how Master has been silence in past decades? and that He is not One who showed old light to GB/FDS?  

I am not "attacking" without knowledge about "old and new light". What i am doing is something that is very good in fact.  Actually -  

1) „It is not religious persecution for an informed person to expose publicly a certain religion as being false. … To make a public exposure of false religion is … a public service.“ - Watchtower magazine, Nov 15, 1963, Article: „Execution of Divine Judgement upon False Religion“, page 688, par. 3.

2) It also does not hold back from exposing religious falsehood.—Matthew 15:9; 23:27, 28. - https://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/questions/which-religion-is-true/

As you can see "old light" from 1963 is the same as "new light" on JW library in 21 century. In other words nothing has changed, The Same Light Still Shining.
