  November 2019 Watchtower (Would love to hear the comments in the hall)

  by pleaseresearch in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  from the november 2019 watchtower study edition.. how many of you would like to know what the brothers and sisters would respond to this question.

  also, if you went into a hall how would you like to respond to the question.. 8. how should we respond to lies?.

  8 satan, “the father of the lie,” uses those under his control to spread lies about jehovah and about our brothers and sisters.

  “You know how I know that they're finished out there? The carts.”

  by Athanasius in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the watchtower's many legal problems and the jws' use of carts in their preaching work, reminded me of a scene and dialog from the film patton.. in a scene where patton is viewing a battle site the morning after, he says to an aide about the nazis: “you know how i know that they're finished out there?

  in my dreams i saw the carts.

  they kept buzzing around in my head and i couldn't figure out why.

  "If they relax shunning, apostasy will escalate massively."

  Exactly!

  If they get rid of the prohibition on blood, there will also be a mass exit and tons of law suits. WT knows this and this is why those 2 practices are still full on.

  "Faithful and prudent slave is officially being used now in some congregations."

  Just curious, why only in some congregations?

  Not sure exactly how the "apostate question" is worded (something like...do you believe that WT is god's earthly organization). This article blows holes in that line of questioning and reasoning.

  just yesterday, a pimi jw that i've known for years told me that at the end of a wedding they recently attended in pennsylvania, usa, the "brother" that officiated the ceremony concluded by saying to the bride and groom, "you may now embrace the bride.

  no kissing.

  just a hug.

  Unbelievable similarities: beautiful, empathetic interview with ex Mormon gal

  by Diogenesister in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  wonderfully warm interview from "stop the shunning" channel host beth, with ex mormon morgan ( ex morgan).. morgan describes her young life and the process of waking up or, in mormon parlance, her "shelf breaking".

  there really are so many things we have in common, from young marriage to feeling personally responsible for saving everyone you have contact with that's not of your religion.

  morgan also describes both her father, her husband and her own fear of losing family and loved ones at the same time as loosing her religion and difficulty we all have whilst pretending we still believe or being pimo.. highly recommended viewing.https://youtu.be/upxirjvtpec .

  This is a fantastic video! I had to keep reminding myself that she was talking about being a Mormon. The similarities are stunning.

  It was worth the watch. I think what she says at the end is perfect. It gets better. Keep moving forward!! You are worthy and valuable! Great advise.

  Thank you for posting this video. Thank you to Beth too. She and John are helping so many!!!

  Do You Think People Have Forgotten About 9/11?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  after all these years, it seems to me that people do not properly take note of what happened on this date in 2001. for some, it’s like nothing major happened.

  for me it is a day of reflection..

  I have not. My youngest was a baby. The next generation may not think of it like us oldies.

  My thoughts go out to all those who lost loved ones on that tragic day.
