  Forthcoming Kingdom Ministry School schedule and references

  by cedars in

  2. beliefs

  i'm taking a break from jwn at the moment, but i thought i'd briefly jump back on to post some information that has been sent to me.. many of you will be aware that the governing body has somewhat hastily arranged another "kingdom ministry" school for the elders, and there has already been a degree of speculation on the forum as to what matters will be addressed at this meeting.. a friend has very kindly sent me the text of a letter to bodies of elders in britain which includes the meeting schedule as well as the reference material that elders are asked to bring along and "meditate" on beforehand.. here is the letter:.

  to all bodies of elders .

  Can you imagine the WT putting publishers on live chats? They'd be eaten alive.

  Haha:

  Jehovah's Witnesses, by contrast, another big missionary religion, boast seven million members but their site does not even have an associated Facebook page.

  JWs will soon become a laughing stock amoung the young digitally savvy.

  "Safeguard Your Mind" assembly targeting apostate thinking

  by promised_presence in

  2. bible

  i recently attended the second day of the 2 day assembly for safeguarding your mind.

  the first talk was entitled "feed your mind at jehovah's table".

  the first portion of this talk specifically targeted apostates warning members to not listen to them "even if they were once strong in the truth or had great responsiblity in the congregation".

  BOC, my wife said she tried Xanax once and she was so flat her kids could have been murdered in front of her and she would have been, "meh, whatever".

  So 6 Xanax? WTF do you build up a tolerance?

  Even thought I've been around quite a while, lurking for alot of that, I knew oompa's basic story and as soon as this happened, I went back and re-read several of his threads to make sure I had his story correct in my head before posting anything. Never a jw, please use the search option, search for OOMPA and read his threads and know his story. There is no excuse to be ignorant now with all the resources at hand. Instead of asking silly questions just use the search feature BEFORE you post. Thanks sorry to be blunt but I'm not in a great mood today. Peace

  so oompa got df'd this week...

  by oompa in

  no call to invite me to a committee meeting...no notification of deciding i should be df'd....no telling my jw wife of the announcement...not a chance to appeal what i did not even know what was going on...my mini-serve son is devasted....he even researched it....told me to go to page 153-154 of the od book...never heard of it but it is a green hardback given to all who are to be baptized.

  wow...the elders broke every rule in this book as to my case.... i have no respect for these men that can take away your jw family without even telling you they are going to.

  my jw son has now begged me to meet with my committee...even though there is prob zero chance they can reverse the decision...that chance is from when they let you know...and you have to appeal by letter within 7 days (i cant make this stuff up!!

  They were just waiting for some excuse to "spiritually execute" him. His wife probably shares ALOT of responsibility too, I wonder if his kids hold her responsible for ratting him out.
