  Beards vs. Shunning announcements

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  during lett’s announcement that beards are now allowed he elaborated at some length how brothers ought to feel and react to the change in policy.

  he warned brothers not to resent not being able to grow beards earlier if they had wished to do so.

  he also warned brothers who supported the old policy not to allow themselves to wonder what the point of doing so was now that it has changed.

  New light isn't that new outside the USA?

  by KerryKing in

  1. watchtower

  all this recent new light etc has everyone talking but none of it is that unusual here in ireland.

  i've been df'd for 15 years, my parents started talking to me again when i had my first child nearly 13 years ago now.

  last year my sister in law started talking to me again also, at the one meeting i attended last year quite a few people chatted to me and said hello.. i'm just wondering if all this is only a big deal in the usa or is this neck of the woods just particularly rebellious anyway?

  a prime example is about shunning within a family.

  My wife is Filipina--and she has a good knowlege of JW practice in the Philippines: she dated a JW in her younger years--and showed interest in his religion. She tells me family shunning of d/f family members was unheard of--as family ties are very close in her country.

  When will the Watchtower Society be desolated?

  by Hiddenservant in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  did you know that the answer is provided in the scriptures through the 70 weeks prophecy?.

  daniel’s 70 weeks prophecy explained.. the 70 weeks were split into three parts.

  here is the reason why.. the prophecy is not only about the messiah, it is also about god’s people and the holy city, as verse 24 makes clear.

  the toll of being PIMO

  by enoughisenough in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  for those of you who are pimo, how do you feel it may be effecting your mental and physical health?

  is it easy to pretend to be what you are not?

  how do you feel about falsely supporting the pimi which builds them up and therefore an org you don't believe in?

  Finger of God

  by peacefulpete in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  a myriad (or close) of threads have discussed the depiction of deity in the ot and nt.

  many exjws simply can't seem to wrap their minds around the concept of hypostases of god.

  hypostases as i'm using the term refer to personified conceptualizations of divinity often acting in a particular role.

  The money you'd spend on Birthday gifts and such.........the Governing Body(tm) (Pee be upon them), want it.

  They need to continue to protect their like minded perverts in lawsuits.

  He does take breaks from here from time to time--i wish i could. Just soo boring these days.

  Explain the Anthony Morris thing to me

  by optimisticskeptic in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  ok, so can someone explain with relative brevity what the anthony morris thing is all about.

  i certainly don't miss the guy but would like as valid of an explanation as possible without a bunch of paranoid conspiracies that no one can verify.

  as best as i can tell from cryptic comments on here is he is no longer on the gb but in a congregation in the carolinas somewhere.
