searching on google maps found that the kingdom hall where ray franz was disfellowshipped and participated in gadsden was sold recently for 7th day christian fellowship .does anyone know about it?
is it a file burning ?
Is it a file burning? When a Kingdom Hall is sold off whatever files are there go wherever the congregation is moving, so if it's to a new hall they go there, if they move to another hall where they share the building the congregation's files go there.
It's a bit strange to think they'd sell an old Kingdom Hall off to get rid of the individual publisher files. If they didn't want any file to be there they would simply destroy it.
let's review: it's a cult!.
allrighty--got thinking about it in this thread.
isn't it odd that, of all things, that isn't on the list of df offenses?
my name is jack and i'm looking for after death communications from the jehovah witness community.
an after death communication (or adc) is when a loved one sends a kind of message to this side of life after their death.
it can be a dream or smell (like perfume or roses that would be attached to them in memory) or a feeling of their presence.
Sorry, but this is insulting to people with a brain or people who have lost someone.

Look it up!
about a year ago there was a thread regarding the 2008 watchtower bible and tract society of new yorks tax return.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/287098/2008-watchtower-income-tax-return?page=1.
a reference was made to the provictor property fund iv which was listed as their primary alternate business activity.. turns out that at that time 75% of the chrysler building was owned by the provictor property fund iv until it was sold during that year.. http://money.cnn.com/2008/07/09/news/international/chrysler_building/?postversion=2008070913.
just thought you should know :).
Do you know how funds work? There are thousands of investors and if that fund makes a 2% or 3% or a gaudy 10% each investor gets a small percentage of a profit. It's like a high-end CD.
I fail to see the story here on this one?
people tell me all sorts of different opinions.
i seem to feel a constant feeling of dread and anxiety.
the possibility of god existing scares me but so does the possibility of him not.
It sounds like you are suffering from depression, which is nothing to be embarrassed about. If you don't have depression in this messed up world that wouldn't be normal.
You're depression might not even have anything to do with your upbringing or religion. It may be something you've inherited, so you need to have it treated no matter what you do. Being mentally ill can make you feel things that are not real and feelings and emotions that are not normal. It is simply a chemical imbalance. Certain chemicals in your brain don't get released enough and it makes you feel down, depressed, and even suicidal.
You need to try and see a therapist. They can give you medications that can balance these feelings out.
Don't try and fix this yourself. You need to ask for help!
according to the scriptures, jehovah makes his sun rise upon wicked people and good and makes it rain upon righteous people and unrighteous.
- matthew 5:45. in that case, if we look at the account in genesis, god is shown to give pharaoh a dream that he will cause seven years of famine.. genesis 41: pharaohs dreams.
25 then joseph said to pharaoh, the dreams of pharaoh are one and the same.
just on of the perks of being an apostate who is married to a branwashed, blinded jw woman.
you know, we have been married for ~27 years....most of which we had nothing to do with the piece of shite cult.
up till the begining of 2014 was when i woke up.
Hey, this has to do with trust and intimacy. If you're wife has lost her trust in you she is not going to want to be intimate. That is how most women work. If she came home and told you she was joining ISIS you might have the same reaction. To her that is what she is feeling (not that the two are the same; just using that as an example). You've got to be able to understand that and have some empathy for her. Her world has just been turned upside down. How would you feel if you were her?
It sucks, but it certainly is understandable, especially if you've been married a while.
how do i feel about this?.
too much doubt.. shame on you people who are responsible for putting richard to death.. richard is scheduled to be put to death in oklahoma at 3pm on september 16th by lethal injection.
i have followed this case and feel like so many people very bad about this.
i went to the kh a couple of weeks ago.
for a funeral.
i haven't been in a kh, except for funerals, for several years.
It seems to me it depends solely on the family how much a person is talked about in a funeral talk. I've seen some families ask that a person's whole life history be detailed. And I've seen other families basically tell the brother: have at it; say anything you want.
The latter is where you basically get a talk instead of a funeral talk.
does anyone here who goes to meetings know of anyone who comes to their meetings after being contacted on the trolleys?
anyone hear of a real bible study from these carts?.
exaggerations from the assembly platform or jw urban myths do not count!.
