  Jehovah's house for Sale?

  by JohnTron72 in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  when i drive by the kingdom hall i grew up attending at but, was sold directly to a church, i get angry.

  the elders who handled the sale didn't even remove the watchtower shaped bricks on each side of the sign near the street so, now they advertise for a baptist church.

  how many times as i grew up i heard things like: you should not do work ( such as clean carpets for a church) you wouldn't want to work at a cigarette making plant or a facility that makes bombs for the military.

  Using gods name

  i've never thought about it before, but isn't it some sort of blasphemy and extremism to use a god's name in the official name of your religion?.

  i used to get seriously pissed off every time i heard "jehovah god". its not his first and last name--like john smith.. but then if someone seriously believes in a gigantic invisible man in the sky, they are capable of believing anything.

  Jesus on the stake

  by dothemath in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i sat in recently with some relatives for the sunday meeting.

  the talk was given by a bethel speaker, who at one point quoted john 20:25.

  “but he said to them: “unless i see in his hands the print of the nails and stick my finger into the print of the nails and stick my hand into his side, i will never believe it.”.

  JC was dying on the cross stake.

  he calls out to Peter

  "Peter--come unto me"

  "yes Lord" replies Peter--and fights his way past the Roman guards to get to Jesus...who gasps:

  "Peter..Peter..'

  "yes Lord"

  "Peter.....i can see your house from up here "

  Another Unnecessary Early Death

  by Slidin Fast in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  a young man in somerset in england, under massive pressure from financial and relationship issues lapsed into mental illness.

  he was unlucky enough to have as his support system the local congregation of jehovah's witnesses.

  one of the symptoms of his illness was the use of tobacco.

  it is very difficult--long winded and expensive to " import" a "foreign" spouse into the UK.

  i'm in the process--and we are now 4 years in to the 5 years settlement route, which will have cost me about 10,000 pounds overall. there are conditions to meet--including a minimum income or other financial means. like many other Brits--i knew nothing of all this when we first met and started a relationship.

  Zoom meetings, how long ?

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was wondering two things, 1: how long in total are the zoom meetings, i presume the sunday one is the longest ?.

  and 2: if you use zoom for free, the session only lasts 40 minutes, so do they have an intermission so people can log back in, or are all jw's expected to pay for the "privilege" ?.

  i don't have the hanging down parts to do it (and my wife would probably divorce me), but i just got my beevis and butthead shirts from walmart.

  she told me not to even wear them outside of the house.. https://www.walmart.com/search/?query=cornholio.
