  The Awake's Lying Image of Witnesses (Oct 22)

  by metatron in

  2. friends

  if you didn't know that the watchtower society published the awake magazine, you might.

  think it was published by some semi-liberal born again group.

  doesn't give a realistic representation of most witness families i'm aware of.. .

  .

  when i was a kid and on vacation in florida about 20 years ago, my dad had mentioned about an "apostate group" in florida and that it was called "jehovah's christian witnesses" supposedly they even had their own kingdom halls, how many others here are aware of this group and do they even exist still?

  What Ramifications would there be if The WBTS went out.....

  i as much as anyone would love to see them fall flat on their hypocritical behinds, but what would really be the outcome?

  there are those who have spent their entire lives in the org.

  and many of these are elderly, and basically have only the org.

  Kingdom Ministry....."What will you do with your free time?"

  1) with summer just ahead, what plans have you made to increase your share in praising jehovah?

  family heads who are entrusted with their families spiritual welfare, will do well to encourage their mates, and children to make the most of any extra time they may have away from the workplace.

  by increasing their share in the ministry.

  Does the Watchtower Society stunt personal development and growth

  by truthseeker in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  with so many "responsibilities" given to the witnesses by the "faithful and discreet slave", there is little time for them to do anything these days except sleep - and that is when they're not out preaching at unearthly hours in the morning.. .

  the enormous pressure to perform, and to be under the watch of the elders to make sure you perform, is a draining experience.. .

  a book i have on sociology says this regarding jehovah's witnesses, when discussing sects, that "they require intensive commitments and demonstrations of belief by members.

  Book Study Conductor Becomes An Ass

  my daughter has been dating a non-baptized jw boy, 18, we will call him "casey"; she is 17, and he seems to be ok that i am an apostate.

  he comes over to the house, spends hours talking to the entire family, including apostate me, and he is truly remarkable in that he cares not what others might say about his association with my daughter and me.

  good kid.
