  i'm pretending the gb decided to hire a ceo to combat dwindling membership and overall apathy.

  here is a list of the changes i would make to the organization if i were hired as ceo.

  feel free to list your ideas (serious and humorous)!.

  That's the exact effect they want to have Sir82.

  Will this Memorial be our last? (1 Cor. 11: 26) We do not know.

  Why rise the question in the first place if you are going to answer with a "I dont know"!!!

  next week's bible reading (Gen. 1-5) stumpers.for your "in" family conversations & sly comments.

  you may add many, but here are two:.

  1) vegetation made on day 3, animals formed day 5,6, but- then.

  in gen 2, man seems to be the primary creation, and vegetation and then animals were formed from the dust and brought to him to name them.

  Good points Theredeemer.

  The WT/FDS/GB teaches that what was wrong about eating was because they did not care about God's sovereignty. Can someone point me to where does the Bible teaches this? and not that they died because they eated from the tree? as simple as that?

  Hello everyone. They just put up the March KM 2014 on the private website. Most of it is same-old-same-old, with info here and there about the Memorial.

  Somebody here might post the March KM for all to see, I wont.

  I just wanted to share the paragraph from page 2 Q&A anticle: Will You Seize the Opportunity? Upcoming Memorial Enables Us to Show Gratitude

  4 Will this Memorial be our last? (1 Cor. 11: 26) We do not know. But we do know that once it passes, gone will be a unique opportu- nity to show gratitude. Will you seize it? May the appreciative words of our mouth and the meditation of our heart bring pleasure to Je- hovah, the generous Provider of the ransom. —Ps. 19:14.

  Did you see the question?? Expect a lot of R&F getting emotional over this. Are we there yet???

  "Jehovah ALWAYS had/used an organization". How would you reply?

  by EdenOne in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in a recent meeting with elders, an argument was used to the effect that jehovah has always [= throughout history] used, or operated through, an organization; therefore, the wts must be that organization today, since god must be using one.

  naturally, i know what arguments i've used to counter that argument.

  but i'm interested in hearing yours.

  A visible organization is out of harmony with God’s divine plane. — Watch Tower, December 1, 1894, page 1743

  Beware of “organization.” It is wholly unnecessary. — Watch Tower, September 13, 1895, page 1866.

  Inherit the Earth?????

  by Crazyguy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the wt has taught that some of the righteous will inherit the land and live on earth forever.

  this dogma is very hard to get over because some scriptures allude to this and even jesus said the meek will inherit the earth.

  but also jesus himself will inherit the nations but that doesn't mean he will reside down here with them.. so how does one explain that the meaning of inherit does not mean necessarily that one will have to live here on earth?

  Funny thing is that the WT/FDS/GB applis this scripture to the Great Crowd...to make nice for the public.

  No 2014 JW Yearbook (Yet as of 1-6-14)

  by pixel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for me is very strange that the yearbook for 2014 is not out yet on the internet and/or gongregations.

  is strange to me because it is a book that comes annually, and no word yet from the borg of it.

  you don't expect something like that from the wt/fds/gb to be dlayed that much.. it makes me wonder, what's going on???

  no longer a ms ........................... can't give details atm, for it might be a dead-giveaway and it ain't quite over yet.

  but, it really taught me one thing: if you're trying to fade or stay in, trust no one.

  and i mean no one.. eden.

  Eden,

  Hope you can come out with dignity. I wish you the best.

  The part of the 144.000 vs Other Sheep is a "no no" for JWs. I think, like you, that that's the real meaning of the Other Sheepp, but JW's dont care. They only care what Mama says.

  Hello all,

  For me is very strange that the Yearbook for 2014 is not out yet on the internet and/or gongregations. (Does yours have it?).

  is strange to me because it is a book that comes annually, and no word yet from the Borg of it. You don't expect something like that from the WT/FDS/GB to be dlayed that much.

  It makes me wonder, what's going on??? I wish we had an insider from Bethel here.

  PS: is not that I care about it or read it. Actually, I want to see the numbers on the annointed :-).
