It is strange to me the witnesses have been very busy giving out invitations to the memorial in my area but what if I went and decided to partake after all at my church we partake every month. They say anyone is able to celebrate the eucharist as they see fit because some of the 144000 will fall away and at the same time discourageing and allmost threatening them not to partake. Very strange.

My thoughts and observations re: the Memorial
by 144001 inwhile sitting through my annual visit to a kingdom hall tonight, i had the following thoughts/observations:.
1. the speaker appealed to the kids: "how many here are 15 years of age or younger?
" he then went on to tell us how exciting it would be to "lie down" with lions that eat straw instead of flesh, and further discussed jw kids napping with leopards, bears, and cattle.

Women: Are they Equal to Men ?
by villagegirl inone of the hard core doctrines of the wt society, and many other religions, is that women are to be in "subjection" to men.. in the bible, in genisis , it says the domination of women by men came after adam and eve disobeyed god.
eve was cursed by pain in childbirth and that from then on as a curse: "he shall rule over you " from then on the male was to dominate the female.. but that was not in the original plan.
this was a reversal of the plan and a curse.

All I can say about this subject is our queen is a women Elizabeth 11. Our governor general is a women and our prime minister is a women.
Churches are also changing too we recently went to an induction of a priest in a new church and the service was held by a women bishop also many Anglican priests are women. There is a growing number of Adventist female ordained ministers.

The sad part about the so called memorial is Christ is rejected by refusing the eucharist. To me it apears how I would imagine a satanic cult would act by insulting the traditions of christianity. Barry

Apostates are Perverts!!!
by His Excellency in.
last sunday's public talk was about tools the devil uses to tear down our faith, and as usual; apostacy, false teaching and erroneous thinking came up in the point, and the speaker went on and on, accusing apostates of being perverts and aspiring to live a life of debauchery which couldn't be tolerated amongst jehovah's people.. he further went on stating that if eventually apostates get into the world, they often find themselves not being able to mix up with satan's system as a result of the bible based understanding which they had acquired, and they ended up getting bitter and wasting their lives .
those words were quite frightenning, i never heard it this strong before!!

Is Prince allowed to wear an ear cuff?
by I_love_Jeff inwearing ear spirals (ear cuffs) traces back to the ancient times.
it has been found out that most egyptians wear them based on the paintings found on the pyramids.
ear cuffs and other jewelries are only worn by royalties back then.. is this scriptural?.

I just found out Prince was brought up as a Seventh Day Adventist and in 2001 he converted to the Jehovahs Witness religion. Just google it

I jumped in the car and raced two streets where a large group of them were planning their next move. I pulled up and announced that I would be witnessing too this comming saturday and I gave one of the Witnesses our liturature for Easter Friday a one page leaflet advertizing free lunch in the park with pony rides, helium balloons and an easter talk by our minister. I am just sorry I didn't have more on hand to give them all one. Barry .

Discussion with family member who is an Elder in our congregation
by Newly Enlightened inso about a week ago, i showed my cousin & her husband [an elder in our congregation] the picture on pg 29 of our 4/15/2013 study wt and asked, "if jesus is head of the congregation then where is he?".
after several minutes of searching, dead silence.. i then asked if they had heard the part on the 2012 summer district conv the part about "our spiritual mother, where the c.o said that "the bible by itself does not shine thru as life-giving truths just by itself.
" they were shocked and said that i must have misheard it because that would be apostasy.

The JW organisation has abandoned the protestant principle of sola scriptura from the information on the utube, Motivate righthearted ones. I dont know why they don,t become Roman Catholic. After all if a church has that authority then it matters not what they teach but only that they have teaching authority or the 'majesterium'.
