i asked my son to stop playing football.
it was a simple kick about he was playing with a friend using the garage door as the goal.
i then went to my home and thought no more about it.
The Rebel,
Just speaking for myself,
My lifelong journey (60 years) with and leaving the Jehovah's Witnesses
brings to the fore a lot of emotion, frustration and anger,
Much of what I write here is actually venting,
As such, I'm not always in a position to carefully itemize my reasons
for a particular position,
Rest assured that your posts are read and appreciated,
No lengthy explanations are necessary,
Cheers,
in next weeks bible study session for the cult, it says of a march 15, 1926 watchtower, “the faithful will be volunteers .
to tell this message to the people.” so i got to wondering what the ... was all about.
so i happened to have that watchtower, and this is what it actually says.. “the faithful will be volunteers in the day of god's wrath to tell this message to the people.” .

What's omitted is a qualifying phrase,
I could say I'm going to have everyone over, when Hell freezes over, for
a lovely party,
Now using Watchtower style ellipticals:
I'm going to have everyone over...for a lovely party,
See how this works everybody,
Now let's go show the faithful,
HEE HEE
i am a teacher and coordinator in brazil.
the school (it's for adults) i work for requires that our students donate food (rice, beens, pasta) or clothes or toys every month.
then, at the beginning of the next month, we take all of the donated goods and deliver them to places that exist on receiving donated items.. two months ago, we delivered the items to a home that cares for kids with cancer.

“you must pay your vows to jehovah.”—matt.
5:33.. * to all intents and purposes, he presented himself as one who was wholly dedicated to god.

GO TO HELL!!
Thank you Brother,
Moving on,
Oh Brother Tepid? Yes?
Thank you, Who made you the Sacred GuardIans of the relationship
between a man and the Almighty?
Um what does the Bible say about presumptiousness?
What say you holy elders,
Seems we're talking about a sin of some magnitude,
You're sayin were running out of time,
After the meeting?
Don't wait up
I hate the smell of fresh cattle manure,
Bye
for those that still care to read the bible of course.
those that don't, please keep the snarky comments to yourselves :-).
i am assuming nwt is not very popular?.
NASV
I do not believe the Bible is inspired by anyone/anything but I will collect
them from Thrift Shops for critiquing purposes

does any one have any experience with writing to the branch office?
i know they're busy, but while reading through the shepherd textbook, it says to write to them quite a few times.
so if a body of elders write to the branch office, whats the usual wait time for a response?
Hi
I was going over your initial question
This wont be very accurate as the details regarding your situation are
rather vague
That being said, in the type of situations that you indicate,
The local congregations are HIGHLY advised to handle matters
themselves
With out involving the branch,
I hope that helps,

Secret a a gent man

The truth may be out there but not from us!
I wonder if the elders like these reconnaissance calls?

Regarding Judicial matters there's a slow process going up the Totem
Pole including the CO etc
I don't believe they will respond to someone who "just wants to go to
the top"
In the event of a DFing make sure that you understand the Appeal
Process clearly,
Talk to more than one elder as that would be the time to do it
Good Luck
