  WT study April 5 - how uplifting! How happifying! How encouraging!

  by sir82 in

  2. bible

  for you poor saps unfortunate enough to have missed yesterday's zoom watchtower study, i thought i'd prepare a little summary for you.. in fact, to keep things really short, i'll just highlight the outstanding verbs from the article.. paragraph 2: do not view.

  paragraph 4: think seriously about the warning.....partake unworthily.

  paragraph 5: do not feel...does not give....do not feel....would never tell.

  Remember the Revelation book?

  by wozza in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i recall when it was released ,that's when i was a drone, how excited i felt at the prospect of reading it and formulating ways to sell it at the homes in my area.. i thought, finally a book to explain the last book in the bible and indeed one that the churches seemed to want to leave alone!.

  i sold quite a few probably because of my enthusiasm and can still remember clearly the first day when i went knocking on doors with it ,and it's been decades since.. but over time it lost it's shine and my mind started to question the explanations in it due to the scene of other things being changed in the jw beliefs.. do you remember they flogged that book so many times in the book studies even when it was found to have "newer light " eclipsing it!.

  who else remembers the printed pages with the official corrections to insert into the book ,so many that the book collapsed to be of no relevance anymore really.....what an embarrassment!.

  the bbc isn't even covering this story - it's merely publishing the front page of a newspaper which is!

  why not bbc?.

  Today’s nauseating WT

  by Slidin Fast in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i am sitting at home, trying not to barf as this wt paragraph by paragraph tries to character assassinate those who have the temerity to take the emblems.

  the unwritten, unspoken subtext is that they, the gb, the now distinct and separate “slave” are above all this.

  they, the gold standard are immune to this questioning.

  mia was almost 8 and she was the sweetest dog who was my girlfriend’s constant companion.

  she had a wonderful disposition and was just a source of joy to everyone who would meet her.. she was brought to the vet on thursday and seemed to have digestive issues.

  the vet gave her medicine and said it would make her sleepy.

  What's up with old geezers in the Bible?

  by eyeuse2badub in

  what the hell is the problem with the famous “men of old” in the bible?

  for some strange reason those old geezers (and some not so old) could not recognize who they were screwing?.

  my wife was listening to this week’s bible reading about jacob, laban, and the sisters leah, and rachael.

  What Is Your Favorite Decade or Time Period to Live In?

  by minimus in

  some people say this decade is the most advantage and so they are happiest in the present.

  some long for the good old days before cell phones and computers.

  if you could live in an era or decade , when would it be?.

  Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.

  latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.

  the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

  Saving Money While Stuck At Home

  by Simon in

  so you're stuck at home, you may be worried about your income, welcome to the world of filling your stuck-in-the-house time with saving some money!.

  here in canada, our energy costs are going up because we have a carbon tax.

  today, in the middle of the crisis, trudeau is raising it by 50%, probably as some perverse "thank you" to all the truckers delivering vital goods.

  home wine making. easy once you get into it. no need for kits--unless you want something a bit special. for a nice white wine--i used supermarket fruit juice. 1 litre of apple juice to 1 kilo of sugar--dissolved in warm water to make up a gallon container ( demi john ). add yeast and nutrient, which you can buy online or in home brew shops. make sure to fit an airlock or it will go bad ( vinegar). .. leave it to do its magic.

  once it has stopped fermenting, say 4-6 weeks, syphon the clear wine off the sediment. its drinkable --but better left for a while. you can experiment with lots of varieties.: orange, pineapple--grape even ! fully fermented out it will be about 15%proof.

  i used 5 gallon fermenting barrels, always had 4 on the go--and a dozen or so 1 gallon demi johns. did it for years.

  i'm still alive, but i dont make it any more. rarely drink wine now.
