  just talked to my pimi mom about this special, of course she saw it advertised, but didn’t watch it.

  she told me those programs are “ apostate lies.” i asked her if people magazine is apostate.

  she said no, but the one who wrote the article is.

  It's a convenient excuse to turn a blind eye on the embarrassing issues that WT do not want there followers to know about.

  2/10/20 20 hindsight: the wt fiction fig tree

  by waton in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  this week's, 2-10- 2020 jesus lesson 103, parables of the fig tree, prematurely spreading leafs, cursed because of raising false expectations.

  what a perfectly fitting facsimile for the fruitless fiction that the wt corporation has produced during "christ's presence" .

  !8xy, 1914, 1925, 1975, 2000, 2075. by their [prophetic] fruits you will know them, or the figurative fig leafs, not even covering the bare wt facts.

  Jesus should have known not to expect figs growing out of season on a fig tree.

  There is a possibility of more people (JWS) dying from suicide than from refusing a blood transfusion !

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i just recently heard of another person (jws) taking their life by suicide, a woman in her 30's.. sheesh, reflecting back upon all the other past jws that unfortunately did this, it creates an unnerving acknowledgement, jws are more likely to die from suicide than from refusing a blood transfusion.

  i remember going back to the 1970's there were occurrences of people who i knew who were associated with the jws in one way or another committing suicide.. at the time i thought well people will do that just like the rest of the general population, not taking notice about the association with the jws.

  but now i do see a connection in knowing of how people are mentally entrapped by this religoius cult in their psychological mind set and sociological behavior.

  I don't recall any JW I've know to die from not taking blood, unfortunately I cant say the same with suicide.

  If this turns out to be true, JW's will just dig their heels in even more to promote JW.org proclaiming that this just another lie from Satan, and how they have been warned from the GB that these satanic attacks will only get stronger has the end draws near. We must resist these lies and remain loyal to Jehovah.

  I'm thinking the greater percentage of negative growth would be from old faithful ones passing away than those leaving.

  I,ve just looked up the "year 2000". From that site. Very interesting to read what was published in JW mags 30 years before 2000, and what never came true.

  New Resolution?

  by NikL in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  had our midweek meeting last night.

  they had a resolution to send an extra (i wanna say $1100 but i only remember it was at least $1000) per month to forward the kingdom preaching work etc.. you know how they work in the kh...no one votes against anything.

  i abstained as i almost have always done.

  We were told at this weeks mid week meeting that there is going to be a resolution at next weeks meeting, we were told the rules of who can and who can not put up hands, during which we were told that we will be putting our hands up. Whats the point of having these resolutions when everyone is obligated to put their hands up. In the past when I haven't raised my hand, I get the evil steer from those righteous ones sitting around me holding their hands up, with that judgemental look on their face, while waiting for the brother to take a count of those holding up hands. I hate meetings where they have a resolution, its pointless. Not puttting your hand up is considered going against Jehovah's arrangement and only wicked people do that....so this resolution will get a pass, just like all the others have.
