  i don't know if that's the universal jw term for potluck nights or if all congregations have them but all the ones i went to had a potluck night at the book studies once a month.

  does anybody have any good stories related to these occasions?

  tonight my family is going to a potluck night and as usual they asked me to make something for it.

  this was taken off the jw-media website

  conscience

  jehovah's witnesses avoid making rules and regulations beyond those provided in the scriptures, and they do not follow traditions that contradict bible teachings.

  did you notice any similarities in the personalities of "anointed" jws?.

  did they use their anointed status for personal advantage?.

  were they the most loving person you ever met?.

  Could a JW be disfellowshipped for lack of "Faith"?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  lets say that a jw tells an elder that he prays and nothing happens.

  then he tells the elder, that after praying so often and asking for reasonable things, i don't believe anymore that god answers prayers, because i was honest in my prayer and god didn't grant me what i wanted.

  i was just wondering if an elder could see this as "lack of faith", which then could be a good reason to disfellowship someone.. .

  Yup, what a jerk!
  
  I had one elder tell me (When I came to the meeting and was depressed about parent's coming divorce)
  
  "You know, allot of times when someone is depressed it's because their hiding something"
  
  Seriously...

  damn those egyptian piles of rocks and stones, so skillfully put together without an instruction book as to what their 'true' or not so obvious uses are, or may have been!!!.

  for nearly forty years, because of some blokes pyramidology fantasy i wasted my life and others have wasted their whole lives, waiting for something that was never going to happen in the first place!.

  now, i find myself reading up on pyramids!

  "Thats what you get for leaving Jehovah"

  that is what my mom told me when i got bit by a brown recluse spider.. i was in ohio, visiting my daughter and my mom was there trying to convert me back.

  she even said if i go back, we would get custody of my daughter..... well....i drove myself there from ks and somehow had gotten bitten right before i left.

  it was right between my eyes, and my head started swelling up on the way there.

  The other day at the bookstudy, the conductor said that DFed people are in a similar state to the demons, in tartarus. I thought it was a bit much. one sister took offense, but she was promptly put in her place. So we're taught to think like this about DFed people. Stupid really.

  And we just learned about job at the meetings and how the false comforters said that he must've done something to deserve his torture. Your mom must've heard that info and still did this to you. Ugh.
