So does he not realise what "stroke" can mean??
there were many addressed to me.
for example, i once had a sister tell me i was gambling because i liked playing skill crane (the machine where you have to try to pick up prizes like stuffed animals) at the arcade.
i then fired back a her: "you saw the r-rated movie 'backdraft.

the development team that purchased jehovah’s witnesses watchtower building complex in brooklyn heights last year has now unveiled plans for its transformation into a swanky office and retail destination.. .
panaroma, as this new space will be known, will be spread out over the five buildings here that were previously occupied by the jehovah’s witnesses.
I love that comment: "An opportunity to infuse the campus with their culture from the start"!
Haha...yes, a chance for a new "culture" to be "infused".....
just a simple " we are sorry " .
.
"To all congregations worldwide:
It has come to our attention that many brothers and sisters have 'gone beyond the things that are written' and have promoted ideas and teachings not in harmony with the bible. We are taking this opportunity to remind all that it is prudent to be cautious so as to avoid all such tendencies.
Your Brothers
The Governing Body".
Yes, Expect to see a message like that. DESPITE the fact that everything witnesses teach COMES FROM the GB in the first place, they will ALWAYS make it someone else's fault.....

I am so happy that this thread has been revived!
Keep sharing your accounts!
I have lost count of the times witnesses were "counselled" for buying 2-door cars...because they "are not appropriate for Service"
hey uk folks, what's going with this story?
was it an unbelieving mate that attacked and elder or something?.
wonder if jwdotorg will post about it?
something that has often struck me in my morning musings is: why should “god’s people” ever need to hide or flee in fear?.
there are numerous accounts recorded in the bible, both ot and nt, where prophets, kings, apostles and others have either been told to flee and hide or have just experienced that normal human feeling of fear and have fled and hidden instinctively.
even recently, the wtbts has produced vivid images in the wt magazine and videos of “god’s people” hiding out in bunkers to avoid detection.. is it just another broken promise from jehober that he will “without fail” protect “his people”?
Brilliant point.
Why cant the "almighty" just make "his people" seem invisible to the eyes of opposers?
And by their own admission in the "bunker video", they eventually get discovered by the police anyways!
to those on these forums who are christian and or to those who believe in the god of the old testament; how does one overcome many of the questionable actions god took or allowed to happen in the old testament?.
many if not most of us have heard of criticisms of the god of the old testament.
you can find these criticisms on many websites.. how do you explain to an honest hearted person why god acted the way they did?.
He could get away with such atrocities and genocidal actions because...well...because he is God.... yer, that should cover it.....
becoming fools... enjoy!.

the watchtower (no.3 2017) bangs an old, very tired drum in its efforts to stir up interest in the "meaning" of the 4 horseman of the apocalypse.
it joins a cluttered stage of drummers - present and past - who claim to have the final and true word about this psychotic vision of 2 thousand years ago.. if you can get passed a casual, eye-rolling read, you'll note some changes in this latest regurgitation - with some astonishing changes given what is left out.. here's what i spotted:.
soothing words about claimed cataclysmic events (e.g., "[the vision] is not designed to scare you.
It really is laughable to see how the society tries to give meaning to the wild delusional ramblings of an old man high on something!
What's next? Will we try and find meaning in the books of "the lord of the rings" or "star wars" etc?
Fiction is just that - Fiction.
