  Great tribulation

  by dothemath in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  you've likely heard all this before, but i had to laugh (silently) at the public talk today.. he focused on how close we are to the end.

  we're not only in the last days, but we're in "the final part" of the last days.. also, we are nearing "the end of the final part of the last days".

  he didn't read any scriptures backing up how the last days are broken up like this.. i went today since relatives es were visiting, but it was more entertaining than usual.. as well, the gb isn't warning us about armageddon, rather they're mainly warning about the great tribulation, which is "very, very, close!

  How many JDubs would believe this ridiculous statement?

  by Sour Grapes in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  a circuit overseer or a member of the gibbering body is giving a talk about demonism and he says the following, "there was an elder in a congregation in california who let his 8-year-old daughter watch disney movies that involved witches, gremlins, magic, and sorcery.

  many may feel that they are harmless movies and are just entertainment.

  well, the 8-year-old daughter actually brought a blue smurf doll to the public talk and watchtower study.

  Yes. Totally different than the past. All of the changes show how this is NOT being run by God. Can't see it until we step away.

  Sensitive data on Watchtower forms

  here's a link to a common form that publishers are required to fill in if they want to participate in city cart witnessing:.

  https://1drv.ms/b/s!amcrvjcxi6m6agpvwzog5pxfxja.

  note on the reverse of the form comments that elders write, and a box to rate your "spirituality"!

  Thanks for the info. I just looked at it and it shows how the BORG is a man made, man run organization. God is not involved. Glad I'm out. As when I was an Elder I would not feel qualified to judge how spiritual a person is.

  i know this thread has probably been covered in the past but i thought it would be nice for newbies and lurkers and just a reminder to those that left a while ago.. how has your life improved since leaving the cult?

  are you happy?

  have you made some amazing friends or maybe met an amazing partner in the world?.

  so, as some of you will know myself and my husband are in the process of fading.

  haven't been to a meeting since beginning of 2017. .

  we weren't planning on going to the memorial, but last week my mother broke down and said that we have to go to the memorial even if it's the only meeting i go to this year.

  I no longer believe the BORG has the only truth. I have a friend that believes Big Foot is real. That is more believable than the WT being the only truth. A couple stopped by yesterday with an invite. No....I will not be attending. Never again. Life is great on the outside!

  sorry, i had no idea what to title this!.

  i was speaking to a sister this week via email and i said i was appalled by anthony morris's recent talk in trinidad and tobago when he said if you haven't been in the ministry for two weeks god looks down on your hands and what does he see?

  he sees blood and you will lose your life.

  I would not have been able to see the stupidity in what he said WHEN I WAS IN.

  They need so step away and take a good look. It is all BS. So many of us on this site can now see clearly.

  dear brothers and sisters.

  after many years outside of the truth, living as an atheist, i have come to realise that i have been on the wrong path.

  the fool has said in his heart that there is no god, and i have been a fool.
