  What language was Jesus most at home with?

  by fulltimestudent in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  our former loving brothers and sisters have been instructed to think that, jesus likely spoke a form of hebrew and a form of aramaic.

  (aid to bible understanding-103-105).

  of course, there is no way to demonstrate the truth of that assertion or any other assertion about the languages that the common people of the land spoke.

  What is the most strange action of a witness while out in field service?

  i was paired with this older "brother" when i was a teenager.

  he was very very strange.

  he was a nice guy but goofy.

  back in the 60's--my pioneer partner carried a snooker chalk cube ( blue )--and chalked an X on each doorway so he could tell he'd been there next time round.

  ( we spent many an afternoon playing snooker on rainy days --between back calls --of course---lol )

  please not snooker is a british game--vaguely similar to pool--only a lot better.

  as the number of kingdom proclaimers increases and as we near the end of this system of things, there is an urgent need for more facilities.

  i am a new member to this forum.

  i am a current jw who is currently struggling to leave or stay, depends on how you want to look at it.

  i have created a new blog, www.jwawoken.com to allow me to have an outlet for the cognitive dissonance in my brain.

  welcome here. i went through your phase---44 years ago.

  Be aware, though, that it is possible for people to trace the owner of a website domain name. That means that if some JW is nosy enough, they can find who you are, which could lead to you being called before a judicial committee. Sounds paranoid, but it has actually happened.

  yep----that should clinch it.

  For me the worst thing is not having a helper anymore

  by John Aquila in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  one of the things that gave me confidence in life was that i believed i had the almighty creator/god watching over me, directing me, guiding my every step, protecting me from harm, and answering my prayers.

  i now know that is not the case anymore.

  i finally stopped praying.

  when i was married to my first wife--a born in---she insisted i prayed out loud with her every night before we went to sleep. this went on for the first 3 years of the marriage--till i said enough is enough. i wasnt struck down dead--either by her or her invisible friend. that was 44 years ago.

  what do you really believe

  by Sabin in

  2. scandals

  what do you really believe the percentage is for jw who are truly ignorant of what is going on behind closed doors of the w.t.

  as opposed to those who actually know something is wrong & yet go along with it for whatever reason?

  i have been asked for coffee by what i can only describe as one of the sweetest persons i have ever known & i cant even begin to conceive that she knows what is happening with the child abuse cases but then how do i know?

  " They don't know about the pedophilia "

  
  

  i dont suppose most dubs even know what the word means-----or--think it means loving children----the same as loving horses or strawberry ice cream.

  Do you feel embarrsed?

  by The Rebel in

  2. friends

  when you look through a keyhole, and see the person you once were?.

  as for myself, i am just pleased i have mended my ways.

  i realise ( now) my time as a witness was a keyhole that looked in to the ground, and licked the elders arse.

  i was always embarrassed when i was a dub--and would never mention it in conversation with " worldly" people if i could possibly avoid it. for many years after i quit i avoided the whole subject.

  but i think this was because i thought the cult was highly significant to most people----but more recently ive realised--it isnt. most people know very little about it--or are mildly curious.

  so now---nothing to be embarrassed about--it means nothing to me--and nothing to most people i'm ever likely to have any contact with.

  i have to rant...i know you'll listen and understand.. i drove over to my son's place.

  down one side of the road cars were parked making only room for one vehicle to travel.

  here was a car that didn't have right of way approaching.

  are these carts unstable-----would they fall over if a member of the public accidently knocked into them ?

  does the WTSoc carry public liability insurance for them ?
