Son has a relationship with a girl. Gasp! Gasp! Gasp!
I wouldn't call that a relationship. That was more of a quarter-night-stand!

Has anyone seen "The Prodigal Son Returns" on JW.TV? A Masterpiece of indoctrination
by truthseeker ini'm watching the jw movie the prodigal son returns.. it is a masterpiece of indoctination and what i would call a "cult" classic.. it's about two brothers who work for their father's construction firm.
the older one is the most spiritual and the younger one isn't.
he befriends al, a weak brother, who persuades him to take a job in the city and move there.. it shows the "world" in the worst possible light.

$10 per pub. Money begging session last night
by StarTrekAngel inlast night, during our "christian life and ministry" meeting, we had a session on local needs.
elder opened the talk with a disclaimer saying that this was a reminder (cited psalms about how david loved jehovahs reminders).
he reminded us of how bless we are of having our own local assembly hall.

Great news! More people are waking up!!!

The movie starts with 2 single brothers in their 20's not having a proper place of their own & staying with their parents, not having a proper job & working for their dad, not having girlfriends or any love interests..... and ends the same way!
Lessons learned from the movie - we should stay with our parents, not be independent & financially secure, stay single, do menial work, and pioneer. Great advice indeed!!! (sarcasm intended)

This is a non-issue for my cong. We have had quite a number disfellowshipped / disassociate themselves over the years... and guess what? Not a single one of them has ever returned! -

You Are Unsuitable!

sunday, january 24. they collected the fine ones into containers, but the unsuitable they threw away.—matt.
13:48.. understanding the lesson of this illustration helps us to avoid being overly distraught or disappointed if a bible student or one of our children does not make the truth his own.

That's the problem. They have completely misinterpreted the scripture & are taking it into their hands to judge people as "unsuitable" rather than leaving it to Jesus to judge! -

Readmission as in the elders have given the green light for a disfellowshipped / disassociated person to return to the congregation? -

Preaching = Salvation... NOPE!
by Divergent intoday's text:.
monday, january 25. to the extent that you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.—matt.
25:40.. early in his discourse found in matthew chapters 24 and 25, jesus indicated that the sign of his presence would include a remarkable feature—the good news of the kingdom would “be preached in all the inhabited earth.” (matt.

prologos:
and "-- done to the least --" and not to the top 7 , the only certified brothers of "christ". and: the "sheep" ask when did we do this? but: since the GB tells the Other Sheep now that they have to do it to them as service, ,the sheep could not ask that question in the supposed judgement to come.
From my observations, it is "the least" who are the most neglected in congregations. Little or no help is provided for those without a status & who have nothing to offer in return. Congregation members are judged based on the number of hours they put in field circus, NOT on acts of love shown toward fellow believers & outsiders! JW's claim to be following Matt 25, but it's so obvious that they are doing it wrong!
