  An Uber driver or an uber JW?

  Either way, it's a fine way to get kicked out.

  Our Spiritual Heritage of Failed Expectations

  last sunday's watchtower tells the story of a man who:.

  was baptized in 1908 at the age of 20. he was very confident that he would soon receive his reward.

  in fact, when he proposed marriage in 1911, he told his prospective bride, pearl: “you know what is going to happen in 1914. if we are going to get married, we better do it soon!” did this christian couple give up the race for life when they did not receive their heavenly reward in 1914?

  Yep, sure enough. They were already invested. The article continues, saying they:

  remained active and faithful until they finished their earthly course many decades later.

  Did this Christian couple give up the race for life when they did not receive their heavenly reward in 1914? No . . . No doubt you long to see Jehovah . . . fulfill all his promises. Be assured that these things will happen in Jehovah’s due time. Until then, may we keep busy

  With all the cutbacks, WHY would they then blow money on a physical Bible, and only part of it that's going to be updated eventually anyway?? Seems pretty irresponsible.

  Wait, are you saying a new English Bible? And that one of the changes is "prudent" instead of "discrete"?

  But to get them to say that the "Society " in all its guises and the congregations of J W are not God's earthly org and G B were not the F and D Slave......... that would be something .

  Well for what it's worth, back then the WTBTS WAS the GB and representative of the FDS.

  Ruin those Ruining th Earth

  by peacefulpete in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it has been mentioned before but since we have been discussing environmental issues on another thread, i thought it might be timely to discuss rev 11:18 which has recently become a popular text for those christians concerned about environmental threats of pollution and climate change.

  is this passage being interpreted correctly?

  did the writer somehow anticipate the modern environmental situation, or did he intend something more in keeping with the bible's general concerns of morality and sin?.

  I think it means morally as well, as Genesis 6 says about the preflood world that it was "ruined".

  Some people like to be sold to for some reason, the experience gives them confidence it seems. But you pay for that.

  do you ever find yourself starting to hum a jw tune subconsciously?

  several times while driving alone i started singing one of them, and then i get to an offensive lyric which jolts me 'awake', and i say something to myself like 'no!

  if anybody heard they'd think i was a few bricks shy of a load 😆.
