Strange picture In J W publication

by BluesBrother in

.this "new world scene " is from p 190 of the "bible teach " book dated 2005.. it is just a joke.

they have transformed their key belief into a cartoon type kiddies scene.

is there no thought of child safety?

I had an idea for new light. I think they should make it where the unrighteous are going to work for the JWs. Saten's system will be forced to work in the beach ball factories.

Where are the umbrella factories? Why do they need umbrellas? I thought there was a water canopy and so no rain. And why would the sun or UV rays be unbearable to need an umbrella? Its not like the UV rays are going to cause cancer. Besides, isn't the weather going to be perfect?

I wanna see the CO announcing that the Watchtower, Bible, and tract society has been bought out by the Church of Latter Day Saints and they will be passing out Books of Mormon and beginning the new brain-washing material shortly after.

The Difference between being a Convert and being raised a Witness

the difference between being a convert and being raised a witness having come from a single parent family, i realized the need.

for some sort of structured and organized way of life.

I have noticed that most of the converts never felt good enough. As a born-in I felt like I was missing out from not having been converted. I think the truth is that no matter who you were, you never felt good enough when you were a JW.

I felt as a raised up JW that at least they could say they made the decision to be a JW.

I felt like since I was raised up one, I couldn't tell people at the door, "I've been where you are and I found this to be the right religion" (funny I used to think there even was a right religion).

Its funny now because I can say "Yeah I was raised by strict Jehovah's Witness parents, but I found that they never taught me how to have a relationship with God. Now, I have the joy of knowing God and being one of His children."

What Do People Hate Most About JWs???

by minimus in

jw
friends

i think most "worldly" people consider jws a nusiance---especially on a saturday morning!

they hate being bothered by peddlers at their door.

some people can't stand the witnesses' smugness and self righteous attitude.

reneeisorym

I hate that they don't think!.. No matter what you do or say, they just will NOT think logically. .. I could go on and on with this one.

Have u ever partaken of the memorial, though not annointed?

by *jeremiah* in

i went to an apostafest over 10 years ago or so and different exdubs got up and told their story of leaving the wts.

one guy in particular, who became christian, and who was disfellowshipped, told his story about how he went to the memorial and decided to partake in eating of the bread and wine.

most christians believe the bread and wine is meant for believers and is a commandment to be done in remembrance of christ's death.

reneeisorym

I got to partake for the first time at the Witness now for Jesus convention in PA in October (The XJW convention).

I had some weird feelings this year when I missed the first memorial of my life. I even went once when I had the flu. I actually wanted to go to it so I could partake but I didn't think I had the courage. Maybe I could convince a girl from church to go with me and partake... hummm..

I think this idea of going and ALL of us partaking to screw up their numbers would be fun.
