Prayer During District Assemblies

by Tenacious in

there's something that i've always wondered about yet could never truly understand.

does anyone know why during district assemblies a prayer is done during the last day after coming back from lunch?.

i can't quite remember if it's done other days but i believe this is done on the last day.

Thanks for the replies.

I just always found it very odd that brothers continue standing after the lunch song waiting to be instructed to sit down. Any normal person would just sit down and get ready to listen.

I know that many brothers will usually continue standing after the song after lunch on all three days until they are asked to sit down.

Can anyone shed some light on this practice?

Need advice on a comeback to my wife: when she is in cult mode she says faith without works is dead.

by goingthruthemotions in

so i have gotten into arguements with my wife in the past about this cult.

now a days after reading steve hassan books...i just try and avoid anything jdub with her.

try to keep her in authentic mode..(not sure she really has one).

I didn't go through the comments but hope you received your answer by now. If not, point her to Galatians and Romans where Paul explains it. James was referring to demonstrating you had faith in the sense that you live like a Christian and not practice sinful ways. Otherwise that would pit Paul against James.

The Money-Grab BOEs!

by Atlantis in

these are the money-grab letters several people have been asking for.

i almost hate to post these after all the hard work "searcher" did on the other thread.

his version looks almost better than these.

Tenacious

I thank you as well Atlantis. And I strongly second what The Searcher said in you and your sources taking risks so that everyone can see what's really going on behind the Iron curtain.

Most of us here know this is for the lawyers and suits they need to settle. It's also having to print all of their propaganda in order to keep the members mesmerized. Did I mention Warwick?

The GB has money but like the bankers did during the Great Recession. Their rationale is: "why should we use OUR money when we can fleece the flock."

The elders came to talk about my facebook comment

by cookiemaster in

so, not long ago i've told you guys how one of my only two jw friends saw my comment against the borg and called me about it.

well, the little fraker also called the elders to tell on me.

i know i've been a huge idiot for posting a comment about jw's on facebook, but nonetheless i did it and what's happened, happened.. two idiot elders came all the way from the nearest congo, 30 miles away to talk to me about it.

Tenacious

When asked, I would have become dead serious, looked them both dead in the eyes and said:

That's insulting! I never said that!

My exact words were "they're a very, very shitty ass cult!"

Now get out of my home! I can't stand liars!

Buhahahaha

Thank you for redirecting me to the right organization!

by economy in

thank you, jw.net and cofty, for redirecting me to the right organization!.

when i posted why did god permit scriptures to be corrupted?

then i thought, if there is an organization that believes all scriptures are corrupted (which obviously makes it enemy of all religions), that organization is not ordinary, but gutsy, lionhearted, and worthy of close examination!

@ economy - if there is one thing I know for certain it's: puff, puff, pass, puff, puff, pass, puff, puff, pass....
