  if my recollection is correct, some here have stated that the wts no longer uses the ?do not eat blood?

  Guards at Stadium Conventions during Song and Prayer

  by VM44 in

  when did the wt start having guards come out during the song and prayer at stadium conventions?

  i noticed this at a convention in san diego, right before the song begins, a bunch of "brothers" come out and stand at key positions facing the seats, and scan the audience!

  they remain until after the prayer, and they do not bow their heads during the prayer, but keep scanning the audience.

  "This Good News of the Kingdom" is NOT Jesus' Gospel

  by Farkel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the wts and dubs like to brag that, unlike all other religions, they are the only people preaching the truth about "this good news of the kingdom" on earth.

  they claim that their most important purpose in life and as dubs is to preach that good news.. .

  they use their favorite verses in matthew 24:14 and revelation 21:3,4 to describe what that "good news of the kingdom" means.

  i am new to this forum, and so far all i read is how we all hide from the wittnesses we now, or don't answer the phone, or walk the other way when they walk down the street.

  to tell you a little about myself, i grew up a j.w, i was married when i was 21. my first wife was abused by a brother in her hall for years.

  we were married for about a year , when one day i got a phone call from a man at the watchtower and track society.
