Great list!
This needs to be seen by every witness!
1) do your studies or training in the group seem to be endless?.
2) did you have to give up things that you liked doing in order to be accepted into the group?
music, places you used to go, clothes, family life, celebrations, etc.).
Great list!
This needs to be seen by every witness!
so that was a "shocker".
i was not able to attend the meeting.
i had a more important one with my other apostate friends in the area.
And yet the society would boast about the growth in numbers as "proof of god's blessing"
So what does a stagnating or decrease prove then hey??
yesterday a letter was read in our congregation.
it said that there have been doctrinal changes in many chapters of the book 'god's kingdom rules' so everyone but especially the conductor must be sure to use the latest update of the book.. this book is only ...how old?
two years?
And yet the scriptures say that "God is the same always, and never changes" (words to that effect)
hebrews 13:8
So did god get things wrong so that stuff requires changing, or could it be that the GB are not speaking on behalf of God afterall?
Can't think for themselves....but need 7 men to do it for them.

i have never understood this.
was it because of legal reasons?
i cant think of any other reason why it wouldn't be allowed, but i know the elders ask you repeatedly that you are not taping.
I agree with nicolaou's comment above.
When I was railroaded into a sham of a meeting behind locked doors in the back room, I objected and said "I'd like to bring someone else in please"
When they denied that, I simply said "well, you won't mind me recording this then" as I started my smartphone app.
They told me I couldn't record it, and I simply replied "well, that's inappropriate for you to dictate. I will record it, and I trust that it will serve to put all of us on notice to behave in a respectful manner"
The circuit overseer in the room said "I don't give you permission to record it!"
To which I said "well, you have dragged me in here under false pretenses, and have acted like bullies...so I WILL be recording it. It's up to you whether you wish to proceed or not"
