Never throw away those Watchtowers and Awakes!
by free2beme init is a sin to throw away your watchtowers and awakes.
you must let them build up and up and up, until you need to store them in boxes that will be places in corners of the attic or basement.
when you find them years later, still do not throw them away or you will die at armageddon!

when is the truth not the truth
by beezknees inokay i'm still a newbie but i was quite surprised when reading some info of a statement about the 'end being fluid' and that .
'present truth replaces past truth ,however present truth may be replaced by future truth'.
cambridge dictionary definition on truth -the real facts about a situation, event or person.

Cambridge dictionary definition of a LIE- (speak falsely) to say or write something which is not true in order to decieve someone
surely the wbts fails to have a clear understanding of the english language let alone any other deeper matters, i can't beleive how readily jw's myself for 30yrs included just accepted bizarre statements such as this as making sense??? I feel they are seriously guilty of missuse of the word truth.. but then again if its not the truth it must be a Lie and who do the teach us is the father of the lie....???

How Did Things Change After You Were Baptised?
by whyizit ini've noticed that a lot of jws and former jws have said there was a big change after they became baptised.
how were you treated before, as compared to after?
is there really that noticeable of a difference?

I do know though that since i have been inactive when i did on occasion try to go back to the ahll i was virtually ignored by 80% of the hall, i even was in a queue in the supermarket behind an elder who totaly ignored me then pretended he hadn't seen me?? brotherly love at its best

hi freedomlover great to know things worked out well with the kids, i think the general feeling coming through to me is to hold off a bit with the parents, although i know i will have to do this sometime as we live next door to each other!! I know i will have to lay some ground rules down with them could just see the comments they will try to make to the children!! thanks again I'm glad i've found this place

the begining of the end
by whatawaste ini would like to ask for some help if that is ok, first ill exsplain my situation.
im 19, male, and for the last 1-2 months have been to no meetings at all, due to all this stuff with the un and many other things.
i was on the phone the other day to one of my close (well i thought so) friends, and we were talking, you see he is from another town and had no idea of me not attending meetings.

hi there
this is one of the things that started me thinking, use the links to get actual copies of the scanned letter from the un confirming the fact, you can also get emails from the un confirming that you don't need to be a ngo for a library pass..be warned though i showed this info to my bro in law who sad the letters must have been doctored and didn't want to discuss it.. he said next i will be standing outside the hall with pacquards!! people can be blind to see what they don't want to see

What would you change in your life if you knew when Armageddon would be?
by JH ini wouldn't change anything at all.
i'd keep on living the way i'm living right now.. i'd say, take me or leave me behind.
i come this way, and i' m proud of who i am.

hi
i guess thats true perhaps there is still 10% of me that fears i may be wrong totally leaving, i know this is just self doubt, i guess i have to learn to beleive in my own desicions as oppesed to having been told what to believe all my life, i think the more i read about the organisation the more this will go, and obviousbly its great to talk to others!

surely if you believe god will cleanse the earth of those he dissaproves of he would see thru any change that u would do merely in a hope to survive...can u earn your salvation?
