defd - I hope everything goes smoothly for you, and congratulations to your wife.
I hope everyone here, .........Is there another bad one on the way? We only tend to hear about the 'biggies' here. Stay safe all.is not close to the gulf, .....
or the keys .....
and the storm
It is stressful and exciting at the same time. I Get out of the house as much as I can. Just last night we sat by a fire in my back yard under the stars. Very relaxing. I live in the country and the stars are very vivble and numerous.
we're actually reading Alpha Teach Yourself the bible in 24 hours
Good to hear that, Kwin. For a minute there I thought you were going back to the darkside.
Now if they would just make a "put yourself through law school in 24 hours" program.
And to answer your ? Yes I would love for kwin to strengthen himself spritually. He wont do it by coming here and BAD TALKING God and HIS Organization.
Defd---one question for you,
If you feel that way about Kwin how come you are here "associating" with him?( and the rest of us too for that matter) Remember..... " bad association spoils useful habits"....
Mon-Fri: paper route, thankfully it only takes 2 hours
Tues Morning: Women's bible study at my church. My neighbor across the street came over yesterday and told me she looking for a church and asked about my church. I gave her a schedule of the activities in the women's group (which is pretty active - we're having a game night on the 30th and a craft night every other Friday) and she might join the women's bible study group on Tuesdays. Son goes to boys scouts.
Wed: baby's speach therapist comes
Thurs. night: Mary Kay team meeting
Friday night: daughter's brownie troop meeting
Busy, busy, busy
With armageddon so close, what was the point of that? ; Did you sell your house to serve where the need is greater? Really though, I hope for a smooth, stress-free;transaction. Nothing worse then a good deal that goes sour.

Kwin the bible DOES NOT condemn being wise and securing your future. Yes Armageddon is coming. In the meanwhile I have a family to take care of not only Spiritually but physically as well and that takes MONEY! No, I did not sell it to go where the need is greater, there is a GREAT need at the one I am leaving now.

The bible may not say that, BUT, the brothers frown upon it.....what about the hundreds of thousands of brothers and sisters who were admonished years ago NOT to pay into social security because Armaggeddon was right 'round the corner????? And look where these ones are today....some are barely scraping by......that's a crock Dfed.....

The ONES who LISTENED to that advise should kick themselves.

You know what I'm getting at. I'm glad you and your family are taking the position you are, yet that so many have failed to take at the advice of the WTS. It'll help keep my taxes down! No, really it's sad when I look at the old folks in my previous halls who gave their lives to the WTS, and now can't take care of themselves financially. They're stuck in small apartments, and if the price of tea goes up, they're in trouble because the money for that has to come from somewhere else. I can't help but feel bad for them.

Defd.....the ones who listened, were following the WTBTS FAITHFULLY.....are you saying, YOU pick and choose what you listen to and obey??? Remember, this was like 40 years ago, a good JW DID NOT go against what the FDslave class told them.....obviously, you must not listen to EVERYTHING you are told, otherwise, you'd not be a regular poster here on JWD....oh, and uh, yes, some of them ARE kicking themselves for listening.....they are rightly pi$$ed off.
