World wide ban on the WT

by vitty in

jw
friends

what would the wt do if it was the governments started banning the organization, along side other "cults" throughout the world.

would this be proof that it was a false religion, by there own words?

would they go underground or would they disappear.. one is allowed to dream .

The elite rich have been working on a New World Order for a few centuries now and only their type of RELIGION will be permitted.

This info is marked on the back of the American one dollar (fiat) bill. Check it out.

Why don't JW friends come over and say hello?

by JH in

jw
friends

i always wondered why jw's didn't stop by to say hello, just to encourage or by friendship?.

but if i showed up at the hall, after many months, they would be happy to see me, and would come to talk to me, and ask what,s going on in my life as if they were really interested in me.

so, if they were happy to see me at the hall, why wouldn't they be happy showing up at my place too.. why is it that only the elders come over to see me once in a blue moon?.

Golf

WHAT? When do they have time when you consider the meetings and getting prepared for their weekly Theocratice Service? Are they encouraged to visit witnesses or be doing door to door activity? Without furthur ado, this is no Christian family!!!!!!

This is a shameful organization that preaches love and unity and don't practice it!

Have a good day and think positive.

by booker-t in

i was just wondering how many ex-jws still read wt literature and if so why.

i have noticed alot of posters here know what the lastest wt or awake magazines are talking about and i was just wondering why do you bother to read that stuff since you left the wt?

Golf

First, I'm NOT an apostate! I occasionally glance through the literature. Why? Just curious.

Why do you post?

by avidbiblereader in

jw
friends

i am not talking about questions or inquirying about what to do with a problem.. when you post what are some of the reasons you give your thoughts on matters?.

for me, i enjoy talking to others who can understand my experience but more importantly for me, i know there are lurkers or people right on the fringes who are sick of all of it.

i try to give a biblical explanation on matters that shows the error of going beyond the things written.

Golf

I like to share the brighter side of life. We've all have gone through enough negative and disappointing experiences, it's refreshing and uplifting to share positive posts. Thanks for asking.

point-out the changes that have taken place are nothing more than .

adjustments in understanding.

All nations becamed blessed because of Abraham's FAITH! I believe in adjusting but you can't forever use this used as an excuse for immoral behavior.

Name Some JW "Double Standards"

by minimus in

jw

here's one: you can't give blood but you can take a blood fraction (which someone else has to give).

"... in our case YOU may learn the rule: "Do not go beyond the things that are written." (1 Cor. 4:6)

Matt 24:36,37 "...this generation will by no means pass away until all these things occur. Vs 36, "Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angles of the heavens nor the son..."

How was it that the organization put so much emphasis on 1975? How did they know that 6000 years of man's existence would be in 1975? Did they not go beyond the things that are written? You decide.
