  i just received an email that said mj attended the memorial in solvang last night.

  he attended with his mom and dad and also his son.

  this info was forwarded to me via 2 others but i saw the original email so i think it's probably true.

  It may be for show or it may be the begining of something real. Remember King Manas'seh? (2 Chronicles 33: 11-13)

  memorial 2005

  the only kick i got from the memorial this year was being invited to play xboxlive after.

  also an "anointed" practically commanded me to start regular pioneering to which he successfully read my silent lips wording out the phrase "yea, whatever.

  " all in all...i should've just taken a big swig of the wine being passed around and.. i'm sure everyone would've passed the crackers anyway.

  It seems that the leadership of WT has run out of ideas and they have NOTHING to give to their "flock" anymore,

  I think your exactly RIGHT! And I think it's born out by the increasing micro-managing of personal lives and the complete fabrication of prophecy, ie: their 'new' understanding of 2Cor 12: 1-4 Where's my puke bucket?

  An Elder Told Me.... Many To Be Disfellowshipped Soon...

  by Doubtfully Yours in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  an elder told me the book is jehovah's latest provision to cleanse his organization.. he said soon all people that have drifted, inactives, and others baptized and not complying with the biblical mandates for a jw, will be visited and given an option to shape up or ship out.. he said that if the person refuses the help offered by the congregation they'll be notified of the date of disfellowshipping and given time to appeal the decision.. he was so happy stating that this way jehovah's organization was preparing for the final clean-up before armageddon.

  he sounded so convincing that it almost made perfect sense what he was saying.

  i got goose bumps listening to his reasoning.. dy

  We all at one time took on the job/title of JW for whatever reason, and if we're not performing to its expected standards, it's only fair that we should lose that job/title. That happens in any arena of life.
  

  In the strictest religious sense you are right. Yet, when it comes to worshiping God correctly and living our lives within His standards, it is not. That's where the Scribes and the Pharisees erred. Matthew 23

  I always like the plot of the Galactica series...its the soft porn I have no use for. They should just stick to Sci-Fi Drama. I barely watch it anymore.

  I have to say in all honesty that despite the welcome, there was clearly something missing from the atmosphere...

  People who are conditioned to be the same lose all that being an individual means, their personalities, their genuiness, their emotional spontanaity...their complete identity is lost.

  You witnessed a room full of thoughtless and emotionless clones (well intentioned) following their program.

  an "anointed" practically commanded me to start regular pioneering

  They forget, they're not to lord it over us! Teach by example! Is that person practicing what they preach? Is he or she a regular pioneer and if so for how long?? And if he or she has stopped...why?? Or is it a case of, 'do as I say not as I do?'

  Hello and welcome.
