I'd be curious to see how many talks are about Jesus or following Jesus as compared to talks about obeying Jehovah or Jehovah thru his King, Jesus or even obeying the F&DS thru Jesus.
But not curious enough to go and find out on my own.

I am going this summer, another necessary installment in my fade.... I will keep you posted. My wife takes great notes. Mercifully, the venue this year is close to many of my
favorite restaurants. So my endurance will be aided by a few libations at lunch time.
I HATE ASSemblies- where the speakers are puppets reading what's been handed them- as politicians do....but after hearing how some of you want to picket, I just might show up to harass YOU! LOLOLOLOLO!

The convention is held below the hill from my church ... I always get to look down at the parking lot knowing my parents are there as I walk in the door to church ...
I always joke to my church friends asking them if they would like to picket.
They are only using "Christ" in the title to bait and switch so people THINK they are going to a Christian gathering. Little do the unsuspecting know. Its like they started calling their halls Kingdom Hall of Jehovahs Christian Witnesses because people had no idea JWs were Christians at ALL. I think when they re-did the Leaky Teepee in West Palm Beach that they named it "Christian Convention Center" or some such trash.
Its anothing but a ploy. Sad that they are so UNINVITING that they have to resort to deceit.

Christ is the tranliteration of the greek word that means "ANNOINTED"
eg as per Blondies post "follow the annointed - that is the GB"

I thought that last year's district convention was going to be the last. Wern't we soooo close to the "Big A' last year that there was no need to plan any new conventions?
Will they drop a bomb and open the door to Heaven for everyone at this convention? Will they give a " mea culpa" and promise to start following Jesus Christ? We'll see.
The last convention I went to after I quit the the WTS was in 1989.. I went with my wife and kids-just so I could hear what my kids were being taught. Five minutes inside the door and I said "hi" to one of my wife's girlfriends- the look of shock and disgust on her face! My wife was so humiliated that I had not followed their rules for Df'd persons and kept quiet-
She rushed back to the car with the kids and she drove straight to her lawyer to tell them what a bad person I was and to file those divorce papers ASAP! I was actually left stranded and had to call a friend to give me a one hour ride home. I was too late- she locked me out. A-hh, the warm memories of WT conventions.
I'm so excited! I've been invited! I'll make sure not to scuff my Easter shoes. Matter of fact, I'll take the searsucker suit out of mothballs and air it out. Man, that new hibachi should add zest to the tailgate party I'm planning. Goal, have more people hanging out in the parking lot than inside. Yes, please thank the brothers for considering the rest of us. Should be able to place a few C of C books, and even more gin and tonics.
The only Jesus in the WBT$..Is the illeagal mexican janitor sweeping the floors at Brooklyn..LOL!!...OUTLAW
