"Don't make mountains out of molehills"

by stephanie61092 in

during the talk today, the speaker said, in reference to apostates, "don't make mountains out of molehills" and "all those who are do good to look up isaiah 43:18.

" to save you trouble, it says: "do not remember the former things, and do not dwell on the past.".

i'd like to see him read that scripture to the victims of the hundreds and hundreds of abuse cases the arc has unveiled from over the past 50 years.

By it's adherence to absurd man-made rules & failure to tackle sex abuse, the organization has itself to blame for the molehills turning into mountains!

Which delusion will you choose?

by JW_Rogue in

it occurred to me while at today's wt study that over 100 people were wasting an hour of their life studiously examining the differences between two delusions, paradise earth and the heavenly hope.

everyone made it sound so serious when in reality it means nothing at all.

either choice is wrong and foolish nonsense.. it was mentioned that mark sanderson found his heavenly calling at very young age.

If only they could spend the same amount of time each week to help people in need!

Wasting time considering nonsense - 1

Helping people in need - 0

The Kingdom Message

by truth doubter in

regarding the unique preaching of the kingdom by wt (new creation, heavenly kings, priests and judges, restoration of paradise on earth etc.).

the scriptures seem to back up wts interpretation.

so, although there are a million reasons to become inactive, how can our conscience allow us not to become active in the work described at matt.

Divergent

Do you honestly believe that a loving God would destroy more than 8 billion people or 99.99% of the world's population simply because they are not convinced that JW's have the truth???

Talking to a wall

by ivanatahan in

why must these people be figurative walls when talking about the lies of the jw cult?.

the other day, i had a conversation with my mother.

we started talking about the election and how the candidates differ (me being a supporter of bernie).

Divergent

I get the "It's not a perfect religion, but it's still the best there is" excuse everytime I talk to my mum. Followed by "Where else would we go to?" I feel like I'm talking to a wall too!

Today's Text Is A Joke - Be Humble And Consider Others Superior???!

by Divergent in

jw

thursday, march 17. with humility consider others superior to you.—phil.

2:3.. we appreciate it when people are straightforward yet tactful when approaching us.

how can we extend the same courtesy to those we meet in our ministry?

tor1500:

Somehow I'm a JW, but don't fit in....not that I'm trying....I do what I do...I go out in the ministry, spend time with the friends, go to my meetings, do my lessons...& live my life

That was the situation I was in after I learned TTATT, until I REALLY couldn't take it anymore & faded. I'm guessing you are stuck in the org because of family?
