CHANGE IN RESURRECTION DOCTRINE?
by Mary inok, this is from the january 1, 2007 craptower.
page 25 is the study article called "the first resurrection---now under way".
it's too boring to type all the stupidity written, but here's a brief synopsis of where they come up with the brainiac idea that the first resurrection occurred in 1918 onwards:.

They have hinted at this on more than one occasion. When I first read it in a question from the readers in the late 80's or early 90's (?) I wondered if they were setting things up for a doctrine change. They like to have something written in the past to quote as proof for a new teaching. "See! It's not really new".
One of the reasonings for all the "anointed" dying before Armageddon is the marriage of the Lamb. How can he get married if his bride isn't complete?

Your reasoning on it is very good. This could really help people who are just exiting the JWs and struggling with this issue. We personally view it as "family holiday". It's a time for reaffirming family and friends. Congratulations on your tree.

Thankyou everybody, it's so good to be back!!
by fullofdoubtnow inas most of you know, i've been in bed with flu for a few days, and though i'm a bit better today, i'm still feeling very weak, but i'm just about up to an hours' posting.
i've missed you all so much, and want to thank you for all the good wishes you sent me for a speedy recovery.
i honestly think i've been shown more love from people on this board who i've never met than many jws that i knew for over 20 years.

So when do you put up your tree?
by restrangled ini hope you all had a great thanksgiving..... my husband was so inspired he went up to the attic and dragged down our tree the same day (the 23)... i have been decorating for 2 days serenaded by vince geraldi's charlie brown christmas music.
for some reason it feels extra special this year.
perhaps because after waffling for years with the witnesses i was finally able to let go this summer after finding this site.. so when are you putting up your christmas tree?.

I'm not sure how long a real tree will last, it's been too long since we've had one. I think they'll last a good month for sure. It depends alot on how well you keep it watered and what species you get. Balsaam last longer than spruce. I'm not sure about the pines. There's a new tree base/watering system out now that's supposed to be really good.

randy, I hope you do start a Christmas pic thread! That would be great.
My MIL's worst nightmare, Yes. I think music really adds to life. Choirs (at Christmas especially) are wonderful. Have you ever watched Judy Collin's Christmas at Biltmore? That's our favourite Christmas concert. The children's choir backing her up is absolutely wonderful.

my cat died today... i need consoling...
by theinfamousone inthis is the guy that sat on my razor blades the one time i was thinking of cutting myself... this is the guy that everytime my dad beat me, would come to my room and lay with me... this is the guy that one time jumped into the bathtub with me while i was crying after a brutal beating, the cat hated water... this is a cat that was more family to me than my own father and mother combined... this was my best friend... .
today i had to do the hardest thing i ever did, i had to choose to have him put down... and as he fought the vet, and tried to bite her, i put my hand on his head, and he stopped struggling... and as they put the last needle into his leg, he purred until he died... the vet says she has never seen that before... this was my best friend and i had to kill him... fuck, im a baby, but i miss him soooo much.
the infamous one.

I sympathize with you. It's hard to lose the companions who've been through hell with us. Cats are amazing in their ability to sense when you need them. But, you did the kindest thing. It's far harder to do the right thing and end needless suffering. Being a wimp is not mourning over the loss of a friend, it's not doing what needs to be done because it's hard.

In a word, yes. I'm finding that accepting people for who they are is the best course.
I'm not really sure what you need to know.
