  TTATT family blow out

  by redvip2000 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  for those of you who have a minute to read this, here is a report from my family trip.. i was in florida for the holidays visiting my older sister and family, along with my parents which were also visiting.. although i've had conversations with my mother about the organization, my sister and her family had no idea of my position in regards to the (un)truth - perhaps because we live far away from each other.

  i knew the day was coming.... on my second day there, the whole family was sitting around bs-ing about different stuff, and as usual my mother starts with the "world is getting worse by the day" conversation, followed by approving nods and smart remarks from the rest of the family.

  i then politely told them that this was not true, that in fact the world has never been better.

  Well played red.

  I've done some good old fashioned ribbing about 2014 to a few JW's. They don't find it very funny. We can only hope they stick their brains back in before too many more years go by. **sigh**

  Mentally diseased...spot the difference

  by punkofnice in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  nwt revised 1984 1tim 6:3-4 if any man teaches other doctrine and does not assent to healthful words, those of our lord jesus christ, nor to the teaching that accords with godly devotion, 4 he is puffed up [with pride], not understanding anything, but being mentally diseased over questionings and debates about words.

  from these things spring envy, strife, abusive speeches, wicked suspicions,.

  nwt revised 20131 tim 6:3-4 if any man teaches another doctrine and does not agree with the wholesome instruction, which is from our lord jesus christ, nor with the teaching that is in harmony with godly devotion, 4 he is puffed up with pride and does not understand anything.

  That's hilarious. Gopd catch.

  Promoting their choice of words, "mentally diseased," has not gone well for them me thinks. One poster here quoted the verbiage in court during a custody battle and won.

  i made this chart three years ago, and in light of the 2014 watchtower study i decided it was time for further refinement.. this chart probably won't fit on a regular page.. .

  feel free to distribute.. .

  NINE REVERSALS IN JULY 15TH WATCHTOWER

  by The Searcher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  here's what i scavenged from the most notable watchtower i've ever read.

  it may be far more significant than many people realise!.

  and before anyone whinges that one or two are 'old light', the fact remains that all of them are rejecting what was once 'inspired truth' from the revered fds, and disagreeing with any one of these (now current) falsehoods would have resulted in your "stoning to death" and shunning by all whom you loved.

  10 Years out of the JW Organization- What I've Learned ( For what it's Worth)

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  10 years ago i stopped attending jehovah's witness meetings for good.

  walked out of the kingdom hall cold turkey never to return based on injustices i observed among others and myself at the hands of elders giving out not god's counsel but personal opinions as counsel .

  some of them weren't even giving out wt society counsel- just personal opinions.

  just got word that my sister died.

  she had surgery for heart valve replacement about 5 weeks ago, and when they opened her up for it they found cancer.

  we had an extra special relationship since i was her "birthday present" when she turned 10 in 1951. this is my second sibling to die of cancer in 14 months..

  What a fantastic actor and brilliant personality. Thankfully we have so much of him on film to enjoy. "My Favorite Year" is one of those movies I watch over and over again. The other favorite of mine is "The Lion in Winter." Hearing him speak is like poetry.

  RIP Peter, well done.

  if there are other jamaicans here, feel free to let me know.. with that said, it was announced at our last meeting (a letter was read) that the branch office (bethel) in kingston would be closing, and affairs would soon be directed from us hq.

  now the branch office here is a large compound built on acres of prime real estate.
