NEW BROCHURE ENDANGERS CHILDREN
NEW JWORG BROCHURE ENDANGERS CHILDREN!
The new brochure ---- Answers To Ten Questions Young People Ask?
Question 8 is about what to do if you have been sexually assaulted.
And the answer is 1) Talk to a friend. 2) Talk to the Elders. 3)Then talk to your parents. and finally, 4) Talk to Jehovah God in prayer.
After seventeen years of lawsuits and thousands of victims coming forward, members are still not being "encouraged" to call the police. There is NO mention of the obvious thing to do which is call the authorities for investigation!
Note the following comments in the "Young People Ask" book see if you find the mention of police ANY WHERE when talking about seeking assistance for the sexual abuse of children:
Telling Your Story
The Bible tells us that in the height of his personal turmoil, the righteous man Job said: “I will give vent to my concern about myself. I will speak in the bitterness of my soul!” (Job 10:1) You will benefit from doing the same. Talking to a trusted confidant about what happened can in time help you to come to terms with the rape and gain relief from your distressing emotions.
In fact, if you are a Christian, it is important that you speak to a congregation elder about what happened. The comforting words of a loving shepherd can assure you that as a victim of rape, you have not been defiled by someone else’s sin. That’s what Annette found. She says: “I talked to a close friend, and she urged me to speak with a couple of Christian elders in my congregation. I’m glad I did. They sat down with me on several occasions and told me exactly what I needed to hear—that what happened was not my fault. None of it was my fault.”
Talking about what happened and expressing your feelings can keep you from becoming consumed with anger and resentment. (Psalm 37:8) It may also help you to gain relief, perhaps for the first time in years. After she told her parents about the abuse, Natalie found that to be true. “They supported me,” she says. “They encouraged me to talk about it, and that helped me not to be so sad and angry inside.” Natalie also found comfort in prayer. “Talking to God helped me,” she says, “especially at those times when I felt that I couldn’t open up to another human. When I pray, I can speak freely. It gives me a real sense of peace and calm.”*
You too can find that there is “a time to heal.” (Ecclesiastes 3:3) Rely on supportive friends who are like the elders described as being similar to “a hiding place from the wind and a place of concealment from the rainstorm.” (Isaiah 32:2) Take care of yourself physically and emotionally. Get needed rest. And most of all, rely on the God of all comfort, Jehovah, who will soon bring about a new world in which “evildoers themselves will be cut off, but those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth.”—Psalm 37:9.
