  "Engrenages" - gritty, French police drama... with a side dish of criminal court procedure.

  [Televised on English networks under the title "Spiral" (subtitled).]

  ^^ Was it all "Blessings" and "Moving Chariots"?

  when I looked at the staunchly pro J W site JW Talk, they were talking about the same letter.

  It's definitely a different "religion"! But that's okay! I'm a different person: I grew up; I grew out (of that phase of life); and grew into myself.

  Maybe they didn't like us referring to them as SAD.

  Is CAD any better?

  If the District Overseer no long has a "district" to oversee, why hasn't his title been changed to "Regional Overseer"?

  "---earthly representatives -- however just as human governments can revoke* the citizenship of a person who commits certain acts, jehovah will revoke the citizenship of those who unrepentantly break his standards.

  -- remain as kingdom citizens--".

  BY EXTENSION…where does this extension originate in the bible?

  The "Extension" originates in the same text as the "Overlap": the Book of Conjunctions and Inclusions (written by the prophet Join), 22:22.

  [I think "Grafting" can be found somewhere near the end of that prophetic book.]

  Counteract jw.org August 2014 Campaign!

  by jw07 in

  there was a letter read at the last meeting indicating a push to advertise jw.org door to door in august 2014.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/273040/1/four-boe-letters#.uv8l4vldv1e.

  many of those who the witnesses prey upon will no doubt search for additional information on the internet.. let us use the extra attention against the watchtower!.

  - there are many of us on active on this site.. - most of the widley used search engines (google, yahoo, bing etc) show autocomplete results.. .

  ^^Good idea! In fact, why not select and publish (here) one search term each week? Cycle through them, even (as the calendar permits).

  Emotionally bereft? Worship more!

  Psychologically devastated? Pray more!

  No zest for life? Be more spiritual!

  At least they didn't pour oil on her head.

  discussion with a friend

  recently, i met an old friend for a coffee, he is a jw in good standing.. he does not know of my "awakening", but he knows, that i m pretty open with things.. so he came up with some thoughts, that, if somebody listened, would be enough for a jc on basis of apostasy.. since his english is not so good, i suppose he did not read this on the internet.. i just paraphrase some of his thoughts:.

  the creation account in genesis is not accurate and in line with science.

  a global flood was not possible.

  The internet [and XJW information on the internet] is not only in English.

  In any case, maybe your friend can be subtly encouraged to follow his line of thinking to its resolution.
