  Food at the Proper Time

  by Alpaca in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ya' know....as i listen to the great music of my youth from the 60s & 70s ... i've reached the inescapable conclusion that the "food at the proper time" came from simon & garfunkel, the grateful dead, jimi hendrix, led zeppelin, pete seeger, bob dylan, hot tuna, steve winwood and hundreds of other incredible musical philosophers!!!

  i can honestly say that my life has been enriched.. i am barreling toward 70 years on this planet and i still get goose bumps listening to the music & lyrics that perfectly capture life's eternal truths.

  at that time in my life i had "one foot in the world" spent a lot of time listening to that classic music with "worldly" friends who were there for me when i finally walked out of the fog of dubdom in the late 1990's.

  Time, times and half a time - nerd time

  by Anony Mous in

  so, the famous 607 calculation to 1914 involves the above prophecy.

  the common explanation is that time is one unit, times is an unsubstantiated number of units.. to prove you can make it say any date, we must write it as a formula:.

  date = t + nt + 0.5t where n >= 2. so simplified:.

  I’m not sure what this means!

  2. experiences

  yesterday i was visited by 2 witnesses, and we had a long chat about lots of things!

  one of them named claire took the lead and i instantly felt some sort of connection to her, after we had spoken and they had left i started to have this overwhelming feeling to research her and what she had spoken about but i couldn’t find her anywhere on any website or social media, so i left it and thought nothing more of it all day….

  however the strange thing is i had a dream that night and claire was in it, many things happened in this dream that i was told i was only allowed to speak about with claire, i can speak of the dream to others but the details only me and claire can know!

  Did Anyone Have Fun With Their Field Service Reports?

  by NotFormer in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  now that there is new light on reporting hours in field service, it's raised a few questions for me, who was never in the jws.

  did any of you ever have fun with the field service report slips, by finding creative ways of reporting time without raising suspicions in those who oversaw the collection of those slips?.

  also, can anyone upload an image of what the slips looked like, or point me to a post that gives uploaded examples of the sort of paperwork that was familiar to jws in good standing?.

  Thought on “0 hours” reporting

  by FFGhost in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so everyone knows the “big news” of this past weekend, no more reporting of hours, placements, return visits, etc.

  beginning november 1, jws just tick a box indicating whether they “shared in any form of the ministry during the month”.. so there was a brief comment by a redditor that seems like a brief joke “throwaway comment” but after thinking about it….why not?.

  the idea is, what is “any form of the ministry”?

  the religious nutjobs

  seems we have yet another new kid on the block. It slightly amuses me seeing them arguing with each other and tossing bible verses back and forth.

  Hey--good idea incoming--why dont you bible thumpers start your own forum ?

  when i was a pioneer ( 100 hrs a month) my time started when i got in my car in the morning till i got back home. i counted about 100 a month so as not to appear too keen.

  So no difference now if someone ticks a box--even if they havent even been to the KH all that month.

  No more REPORTING field service!!!!!!!!!

  this is going to break the hearts of a lot of uber-jw's!

  reddit has now removed the video link of samuel herd telling jw's they will no longer have to report time or placements - just tick a box which says "active.".

  or--it was coming down the pipe if people REPORT work--even unpaid--it puts a liability on the organisation they report to.

  i think the idea i read on here is right--it means individuals can preach, go door knocking--guard leaflet racks etc if they want to--its nothing to do with the mothership.

  Your on your own now bruvvers.
