  The true pronunciation of God's name....

  by Kosonen in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i found a very interesting video by a jewish biblical scholar about how to correctly pronounce jehovah.

  it's not yahweh as other scholars claim.. https://youtu.be/4vgxmmbst8w?si=yq7ggwstkpnd3f18.

  14 does what we have considered mean that we would completely ignore a person who has been removed from the congregation?

  not necessarily.

  /\/\ i get that. It was announced i couldnt be d/f--as i wasnt now a JW ( i resigned years earlier ) but i was now deemed to be apostate because of my conduct and treated the same as d/f.

  I never got any sort of notification--either a phone call or letter. I found out because one young member told my wife what was announced.

  This was over 40 years ago.

  Re-activate me?

  by punkofnice in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there was a knock at my door and i thought it was my take-away being delivered.. long story short, it was 2 elders calling to see me.

  i guess to re-activate me.

  once they said who they were i recognised them.

  JE-sus making a comeback at the 2024 Convention

  by dropoffyourkeylee in

  2. experiences

  attended the friday sesson of the 2024 summer convention.. july 5, 2024 summer convention crowd photo; they invited quite a lot of empty chairs.. .

  the facility usually has 5500-6500. they spun it saying that fewer congregations were assigned.

  there were 6 of the smaller, more distant sections blocked off with tarps to lessen cleaning, which i understand.

  Yes, "us". In Biblical context, Jehovah was talking to other spirit creatures in heaven, most likely his son Jesus,

  oookay

  but jevovah was still top dog god though?

  and what was the evil they knew about ?

  in point of fact--what evil could the man have got up to--?

  ( apart from scrumping apples of course )

  Who told the first lie?

  by nicolaou in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  this is a continuation of the discussion which sprang from an unrelated topic.. so according to genesis, who told the first lie?

  god told eve that if she ate from the tree of knowledge she would die that very same day.

  in response to that statement the devil told her she would not die.. eve ate from the tree and did not die.

  so is the Adam and Eve story just that--a story, a myth..a fable?

  Do any of us really believe its anything else ?

  JWs obtaining fake degrees from a US institution to teach English as a foreign language

  by truthseeker in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  teaching english as a foreign language in asian countries is quite popular for those looking to travel and explore and make some money.

  if you have the tefl qualification you're pretty much good to go and don't need a degree.i don't know how lucrative these overseas jobs are but i do know one jw from my congregation in england who decided to move to the caribbean and teach english as a foreign language.

  i'm not knocking this individual.
