the TC founder of non-profit, non-governmental organizations, or LRO

TC=LRO ???

LRO does not refer to congregations but to Kingdom Halls, or rather to all the congregations meeting in a KH.

 

There are well over 2000 congregations in Russia, but only 395 LROs.

2:30    The representative of the Ministry of Justice continues to ask questions to representatives of Jehovah's Witnesses.What measures did the UC take to prevent extremist activity after the warning was issued by the Prosecutor General's Office on March 2, 2016. Lawyers list. The court asks the representative of the Ministry of Justice clarifying questions: If the UC did nothing at all? Would it be a good idea to liquidate them? Is extremism out of carelessness or inaction? Answer of the representative of the Ministry of Justice: No. Court: If not, what are we trying to find out?Why, then, does the Ministry of Justice in general attribute this to the fault of the UC?

LRO stands for Local Religious Organization - registered body with statute, usually one LRO in a city is registered. For example, there are 10 congregations in my town Tiraspol and only one LRO.

14:45

The Ministry of Justice submits to the court an "internal" document of Jehovah's Witnesses, received by the Ministry of Justice from open sources. On the clarifying issue of the court, the representative of the Ministry of Justice informs that the letter was taken from the website of NTV. The representative of the Ministry of Justice believes that the text of the letter will help to clarify how the financial departments of the UC and MRO are financially connected. Lawyers are not ready to confirm that such a letter is authentic, but it is already obvious that MPOs are neither recipients nor the sender of the letter, which means the letter has nothing to do with this process. The court postpones for later the question of whether to attach this text to the case materials.

14:58

The Ministry of Justice solicits interrogation of four witnesses on the part of the plaintiff. It is about people who in the past professed the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses, but later left it. The respondents object. The court satisfies the petition for interrogation of witnesses by the plaintiff.

15:05    A questioning of the witness on the part of the defendant begins, Zavyalov Valentin Mikhailovich, since 1992, a professor at MISI. Confesses the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses for more than 20 years. He reported that at the meetings of his religious group the literature introduced in the FEMC was never used. The names of this literature are posted on the wall of the room where divine services are held. Believers carefully inspect the premises before the start of worship, to exclude the possibility of finding such literature in worship services.

15:20    Witness Evgeny Skladchikov, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor, MSTU. N. Bauman. Became a Witness of Jehovah in 1998. He says that in the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses he was attracted by the unconditional peaceableness of the biblical teaching, it is completely incompatible with extremism. No extremist publications are used at worship services.

Of course Satan has to add some people in there that he has control over but it is no problem for Jehovah.

I think one LRO in the city is enough. No matter how many congregations .

Thanks, that makes a lot more sense. It's confusing to deal with so many abbreviations.

Hmmm...they certainly aren't sounding like apostates?!
