  You Tube Questions about Watchtower Property

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  kim and mikey made a youtube yesterday claiming that a business called watchtower property co. was connected to the watchtower.

  they used a recording done by youtuber smurf girl of a call she made to a julie at the company.

  i believe the call was doctored as it has her saying that (no) "we're connected to the jehovahs witnesses directly.

  Publisher's Record Cards

  okay, i haven't been to a meeting in over 17 years and i don't live anywhere near the place i grew up.

  i have had minimal contact with my jw family, essentially just occasional phone conversations.

  i think they could easily guess that i'm inactive but they pretend not to know and they've never shunned me.

  JW vs. Mormon with regards to homosexuality

  by Downtowner in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i find it ironic that jw.org publishes an article about homosexuality on the day i received july 2020 issue if the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints magazine "ensign" which also has an article on same-sex attraction.

  .

  regardless, the lds article comes across as more caring than the jw article although in the end members in good standing cannot act upon their same-sex attraction in either religion..

  Bringing Your Files Up To Date!

  by Atlantis in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  several of the members here have written to us and remarked that they would like to bring their file folders up to date.. some believe they are missing a letter, form, or manual here or there.

  so, i asked atlantis to put a folder together for me to send out to folks, so that they could bring their files up to date and fill in missing documents.. the file folder he put together has everything you can think of in it.

  including the kitchen sink, bedroom slippers, and extra toilet paper just in case there is another shortage.. the folder goes back 10 years.. 2010 to 2020--06--04 right up until today.

  Was Paul A false Prophet?

  by saorean in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i ask the question on the title because there a quite a number of statements the apostle paul made about the coming of jesus and resurrection of the holy ones that never fulfilled.

  1 corinthians 15: 51, 52 (nwt) : .

  i tell you a sacred secret: we will not all fall asleep in death, but we will all be changed, 52 in a moment, in the blink of an eye, during the last trumpet.

  OCT 2019 Watchtower - Survival dependant on loyalty to JW Leaders

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  there is so much wrong with the newly released october, 2019 but that's not unusual.

  what stands out is there statement claiming that survival through armageddon depends on loyalty to those 'taking the lead'.

  since they claim there will be a point during the gt that they (the gb) won't be physically around, jws must still be loyal to jw leaders.. whats interesting in this article is that they make it clear that they, the governing body are going to take part, from heaven, in the war of armageddon.

  old friend (in memorium).

  we found the site of our old kingdom hall--no longer a place of cult activity--unless the electric supply business has a dark side.

  all those meetings, songs, conversations!
