Ditto what Tenacious said. I can see from what the Bible says that there is no specific night/time requirement, but I do take 'sacrement' if you will annually, privately. As I'm PIMO and need to attend the Memorial, I do have to pass the bread and wine, but I will say a prayer while doing so. It's under duress. Similar to how Naaman had to help his master bow down at his idol because it was his job, but in his heart he wasn't for it.

Less facial hair? More spirituality!
by neat blue dog inwe've often seen the happifying kingdom trope of a bearded bible student coming up from the baptism water with a freshly shaven, baby smooth face.
beards, after all, signify independent thinking and are best left to worldlings.
our new july 2019 issue of the watchtower, however, sheds increasing light on the subject.

Holy Spirit - Present or Gone in the Congregations?
by BourneIdentity ini was doing some reminiscing and remember the days back in the late 80s and early 90s where i truly could say the meetings were so encouraging and that i felt the holy spirit present and operating on all of us.
today when i attend, there is nothing of the sort.
is it because jehovah has withheld it?

C: brainwashed and having a placebo effect
Final answer.
Actually, the 90s were a low point for the organization in a lot of ways. They could no longer charge money for literature due to a court decision, funds were drying up, the move to softcover books was initiated, there was no slick media like today, even the quality media they had like the org video and convention dramas took a nosedive in production value over that decade, and probably most important, one of the biggest teachings they had for decades, "this generation", had to be changed out of necessity. Only those so far in they couldn't see the forest for the trees wouldn't notice.

Soon, his Bible Trained Conscience moves him towards full assimilation, as he Symbolizes his Dedication by Water Immersion.
This is an important reminder that spirituality is superficial and easy to spot. What a loving, Simplified Arrangement from God's Organization!

As he progresses in Accurate Knowledge through his Free Home Bible Study, we notice that the beard has now become a goatee.

In These Last Days, we should expect The Slave will provide more nuanced teaching aids such as this. The man in the first illustration has a short, well groomed beard as he first recognizes the Ring of Truth, not knowing that this marks him for destruction, as angels depend on dress and grooming styles to decide who to slaughter at Armageddon.

Today’s bible study, how to blow one of their doctrines using just one verse.
by Crazyguy2 inat the talk today the speaker was bloveating about paradise and how we will need to teach the ones being resurrected gods ways.
ofcourse we all know that the resurrection will start just a few years after the big a so that everyone can be taught the truth and the big j’s ways before satan is released at the end of the thousand years to test everyone after of course they have grown to perfection and then can truly be tested as perfect as adam.
revelations chapter 20 starting in verse 4 thier bible but notice verse 5 ; and i saw thrones and those who sat on them were given authority to judge.

Great find but that isn't the half of it. Like ding said, they'll twist it any way they need to fit other dogma.
