BS stories in the publications

by Billzfan23 in

this is an example of a story that just strikes me as funny from their publications:.

"wilson, a christian from ghana, was notified that in a few days, he would be fired from his job.

on his final day at work, he was assigned to wash the private car of the managing director of the company.

TO ALL BODIES OF ELDERS

Re: Audio at Sign-Language Meetings

Dear Brothers:

Some have asked about the propriety of making the audio track of videos played at Chris-tian meetings audible for sign-language audiences. Christian meetings are for the purpose of dis-pensing spiritual food, and many hearing ones benefit more from the videos when they can listen to the audio track in their language. Therefore, rather than turning off the audio track for sign-language audiences, the audio track should be made audible at the meetings held by sign-language pregroups, groups, and congregations and at sign-language assemblies and conven-tions. Deaf publishers usually have no complaints about the audio playing in conjunction with a video that is signed. Hearing members of a deaf publisher’s family in attendance also benefit spiritually.

Be assured of our warm Christian love and greetings.

The micro-managing of the Borg has no bounds. Also, "Deaf publishers usually have no complaints about the audio playing" REALLY????

What was the EXACT exJW website you first visited and why EXACTLY did you visit it?

by ILoveTTATT2 in

i had two episodes of visiting exjw websites:one time around 2007 when i just googled "jehovah´s witnesses" and dared to look at those sites.

i was scared and i promised myself i would never come back to them.

however, that one didn´t really count.the moment that woke me up was this:i got to know that whitney heichel was a jw and murdered by another jw, because i overheard that conversation in a kingdom hall.i looked up the news and in one of the news comments, there was one where an exjw was complaining that they were hijacking her funeral and they were really trying to downplay the fact that her murderer was a jw... and then it said "visit jwfacts.com"... which i did.and the rest... is history.what exactly got you onto an apostate website when you woke up?

Maybe a bit off topic, but when I started to learn TTATT I was into the whole hidden-messages-in-images WT thing.

to answer the question, I think it was Silent Lambs website.

JWFacts is incorrect about "Holy Spirit". Do YOU know about the 40 or so years the WT taught there was NO holy spirit?

by Bad_Wolf in

i did my own extensive research as i was getting out, and by exploring actual changes and mentions of core doctrine, i learned how it came about that the gb teach that only they know the truth and only they get holy spirit.

i was checking if jwfacts had it, and although they mention many older articles, it seems they didn't realize they taught there was no holy spirit.

this was a real big eye opener for me, so thought i'd share it, and curious if any of you knew about this yourselves????.

will you avoid nike or tend to not buy apparel because of their support of colin kap?

would you stop doing business with anyone simply because you disagree with their politics?

in california, in and out burger, democrats were being told not to support the chain because they donated to republicans.. will politics affect your spending habits?.

"Believe in something, even if it is the Overlapping Generation"

To answer the question: NO. Companies don't care about social issues. Just about profit (right so, they are companies after all).

Social issues for them are a bit fat advertisement.

A Gem From The May Study WT "Know Your Enemy"

by JW_Rogue in

in fact, only three books of the hebrew scriptures, 1 chronicles, job, and zechariah, mention satan, which means “resister.” why was little said about our enemy prior to the arrival of the messiah?.

3 apparently, jehovah did not want to give satan undue prominence by devoting large portions of the hebrew scriptures to discussing him and his activity.

jehovah’s primary purpose for inspiring that section of the scriptures was to identify the messiah and lead god’s people to him.. .
