isn't tomorrow armageddon?

i think i'll sleep late just in case... an elder called my friends house and said that armageddon was almost certain to come this year; an urban myth stated that it would be tomorrow.

i guess i'll wait to make that car payment.

and what if you learned that the original Greek did NOT have God's name in the Bible

Lol Eclipse - I can almost see ariana thinking, 'Greek? What's that? Where?''

This words are curved in me I have no watchtower in front of me right now

Lolol - I thought you learned everything from the Bible? Were you fibbing? Lol

The name of God was removed from the bible, but we find out that it was suppose to be there

Where is it 'supposed' to be?

ariana -What I've learned has been from the bible

With all due respect ariana, that is simply an untruth. Do you mean that one day you picked up a Bible and understood it? OR did you need a book printing business to tell you what it all means....and then you blindly believed them?

Welcome ariana...

If we are easily distracted by colors and things like clothing and jewlery then we can easily fall away from what we are learning in the kingdom hall.

I see - so THAT'S why there are no windows -so folks on the outside can't see the naked Congregation inside? Lol

Lol Finally-Free Just reminded me - the code for the Burglar (security) alarm was 1-9-1-4 lol - I wonder how many Kingdom Halls have the same code, and if they've changed it now!?

If Armageddon Is Soooooo Close, Why Does The Society Spend $$$ On Buildings

and assembly halls and expansion??

seems like a waste to me!

It keeps the R&F busy when literature sales start slacking - Contribution boxes are feeling the pinch, so the WTBTS are screwing the money from the R&F another way (and they won't notice)

Watchtower Magazines just as important as Bible?

by R.F. in

a few months ago during the wt study, the conductor was sharing a point with the audience and he made a sickening statement..... he said that the watchtower is of the same level of importance as the bible.. now i was sitting there thinking, "you've got to be kidding me!!!

" but i look over the audience and i see alot of the audience nodding their heads in agreement.. so a magazine that has contained spurious garbage throughout the years that is subject to change at the governing body's bidding is as important as the bible???.

this is why most jws can't explain their beliefs with the bible alone, and how the organization can put on the facade of having strict adherence to the bible when the fact is that they have their doctrines then they make the scriptures conform to them.. even when jws do bible reading alone their minds are so jammed with wt dogma that they really aren't unlocking the scriptures as they should.

MidwichCuckoo

I think JWs regard the literature as New Light (The Bible just there as a reference Book). Take the Watchtowers and other trashy publications away and leave them with a (real) Bible, and they wouldn't recognise it, let alone understand it.

Nothing better!

by KW13 in

there is nothing better than seeing someone you know who has left!.

the other day i was in town and i saw someone who left while i was still in.

everyone said things about her, how she came off the rails etc but actually she has a son, a good relationship with her father (an elder who left before her and left family because his father-in-law would make life a nightmare...well she followed).. i haven't seen the father in years or her but it was nice to catch up, a flash of horror on her face until i explained i left also and then she was really happy!.

Poor girl - I bet she's used to peeps shunning or questioning her. Good for you.

Soon WE'LL outnumber THEM (if we don't already)
