Governing Body Members Autographing Bibles

by HereIgo in

i have an online ex jw friend who pointed out to me that she stumbled upon a may 15, 1999 watchtower that had pictures of governing body members autographing bibles for people.

i have no bound volumes or cd rom copies anymore so i can verify.

two things came to mind, if this is true:.

Demonic content being used in the "Remember the Wife of Lot" video?

by The Fall Guy in

sadly it's in german, but i've been reliably informed of the crucial relevance of the moon, butterflies, owls, geckos, & mirrors in spiritistic practices - all featured in the "slave's" offering!

perhaps someone with a knowledge of german can provide a more detailed analysis.. according to this guy's forensic examination of the video, it uses spiritistic practices and symbolism repeatedly.

far too much to be a coincidence?

What gets me about the videos is they obviously have a prop department with crosses and statues and religious symbolism, "worldly" images etc to be able to place these items strategically in camera shot and a costume department with cross necklaces etc for the "actors" to wear.

If these items are so demonically bad then how do they justify having a supply of them on hallowed WT ground?

Does that mean ordinary JWs can have these items for re-enacting bible stories at home?

Pioneers Living With Married Couple

by msecodo in

so ... situation:.

a baptized married couple, with no privileges that we know of, have opened their home to 2 unmarried regular pioneers because of the pioneers' financial issues (limited income).. - husband works from home.

- wife doesn't work and stays home or in service.

So pioneers couldn't live in a boarding house type of arrangement?

Why don't they just insist on chastity belts and pioneers could be safe from temptation everwhere.

Today's Text - Justifying The Increase Of Annointed Ones!

by Divergent in

thursday, august 31. jehovah knows those who belong to him.—2 tim.

2:19.. in recent years, we have seen an increase in the number of those partaking at the memorial of christ’s death.

that trend contrasts with the decrease in the number of partakers that we saw for many decades.

sparrowdown

If they get too many partakers they may have to change the memorial bread.

McFarland Lawsuit

by John Davis in

i am not sure if anyone heard but it does appear that the mcfarland v watchtower lawsuit has been settled.

the court only shows that it was settled so there was no longer a need for a status conference.

that is all that i know on this.

sparrowdown

So, please, tell us what you think bout that JD, I'm just dying to know.

You show me yours and I'll show you mine or is this a trap to get everyone telling you what they honestly think over and over and over for several pages, in good faith, so you can tell them they're wrong, or just ignore them.

I'm a bit worried about god!

by punkofnice in

it's true.

i'm a bit worried about god.. he seems to be doing some quite silly and frankly, insane things to prove he exists.. some bloke found words from the quran in a tomato.. jesus keeps appearing in toast and cats bums.. i'm worried about god.

i think he's gone a bit didlow..

It's called Marketing darling, and all the smart "Gods" are doing it.
