what questions do the elders ask you when you are in your meeting requesting to get reinstated ?.
Much depends on the elders there, and whether or not they like the person or not.
If they have their own reservations about the one who wants to be reinstated, then they will make them jump through a multitude of hoops to prevent them coming back in easily.
my wife and i just enjoyed a family reunion with both my sons ,one wife and one grandchild 10 years old ,where they stayed at our house for a week .. the best week we have had for many a year .
the couple live only 2 hours away by car and the other son and his child live 2 states away 2 hours by plane.. and thankfully they are no longer associated with the borg that i now regretfully brought them up in , so the borg will never get their children.. it was a happyfying time .
So good to read about Smiddy!
Or as Aussies say "Goodonyamate"!
this is the announcement we have heard “about” but now it has been released to the whole world.
its in the 2nd of a three part serries about the jw annual meeting (oct 2018).
to minute 52. .
He seemed very uncomfortable during that talk...did anyone else notice that?
would i err in stating most religions and denominations have set doctrines?and yet, the watchtower's version/rendition of christianity is riven with contradictions which stem from changing predictions, policies, doctrines, and interpretations seemingly adrift from foundation or principle.wouldn't you think the constant upheaval, sifting, churn, and reorganization bespeaks whim, mood, uncertainty, and wilful speculation more than divine guidance?there's something endemically jittery and insecure about this religion which i would opine has more than a little to do with unstable mental affect than mere whimsy.what's your take on this?.
Yes, this is clearly evidence of a man-led religion (well- they all are really, right?)
If the bible is to be taken as God's word, it clearly states that "God is the same yesterday, and tomorrow", and that he "never changes"
So....that contradicts these modern religions.

episode twenty three - sherrie is shunned by jehovah's witnesses.
today we have a really cool live recording from my living room.
I loved listening to the podcast too - even though Sherrie is my better half!
It is wonderful to hear her express herself freely on her own!
some of you may remember old goat who used to post here.
he died last night in his sleep.
he was 92 years old.
Thanks for letting us know.
He helped many here with his comments
just curious if anyone put off having kids because the end was so close.
or because of you're "ministry" or lack of suitable mates..
Yes...we did.
You know, full time service was supposedly the better choice for spiritually mature ones....
