  The Myth of being "Spirit Appointed"

  by BluesBrother in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  back in the first century we read that the apostles would "lay their hands" on someone and the holy spirit would be imparted to that one.

  appointments of older men were made in this way - at that time.

  in modern times the wts has claimed that their own elders ,min.

  Doc
  You have to know how to get time in. Write a letter. Time it. Then run it off and count piece work.

  
  

  thats brilliant--instant pioneering. set a timer. think up; compose and type a letter. think about it some more. change it. rewrite it. bung in a couple of scriptures. when satisfied--stop the clock. time elapsed--one hour.

  now--print off 100 copies...thats 100 x one hour. easy pioneering.

  now--heres the smart bit: sell those 100 copies to another pioneer to slowly deliver them throughout the territory. another 100 hours.

  thats worth a couple of likes.

  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.

  Borat Subsequent Movie Film

  by Simon in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  so i watched the new borat movie.

  i like borat the character, he was the most entertaining in the original ali g series.

  there's one piece where he's with a wine taster and looks like he's genuinely drunk, but the way he manages to be annoying and mess up being passed a glass is hilarious.

  hello Scarlett--welcome to the forum.

  first off--youve already got the difficult bit out of the way--telling your mum...and--she hasnt "thrown you out" yet. Just ask her for more time till you can afford to get a place of your own...if thats what you want. In other words--take control of the situation.

  What kind of person is your dad ? Do you have a good close relationship with him ? Is he likely to be supportive towards you if you talk to him ? Or is he a typical JW fringe male--going along with it because he likes ma's cooking ?

  as regards the window cleaners--the elders--sure--if they want to meet with you--agree to it. find out for yourself what they want. just dont tell them your thoughts and feelings.

  if they decide to d/f you--fine--see what effect that has on your dad--and mum. might be just what they need.

  do stay in touch with us.

  2. bible

  when i was a jw i would look to the bible or the wt society to answer all of my problems.. now as an older person i get cold in the wintertime and have trouble getting warm down to bad circulation.

  i found an answer in the bible at 1 kings 1:2, but i don't think my pimi wife will let me apply this bible principle.

  If you post here, as many a faithful JW do, you are considered an apostate.
