  a young sister in my husband's congregation who is the daughter of an elder has been reinstated in a matter of months.

  whereas another sister in the same congregation has been disfellowshipped now for nearly two years!.

  seems like it's who you know..

  2. experiences

  my mum today was told that she urgently needs a pacemaker.

  the doctor said he would push this through as quickly as possible.. my mum was more concerned about it clashing with her convention!

  she told me she would rather leave the op till after the convention even though the doctor said it was urgent.

  Will Anything at The Convention Make Those That Are In Start To Question Anything?

  my husband, as far as i know, has never seen any of the gb.

  with all the videos on at the convention showing the gb speaking, is there anything that would make him think wth!.

  he thinks the gb are special, appointed by jehovah, that god speaks to them and imparts special knowledge.

  HOW MANY WOULD LEAVE?

  by disillusioned 2 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there are a lot of people on this site and others who even though they don't believe anymore still fill the seats at the meetings.. i was just wondering, if they all decided to leave at the same time, how many do you think would leave?

  would the numbers drop dramatically?

  i would love to see that..

  JESUS COMING

  by disillusioned 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i'm confused.

  reading the day's text for yesterday, they talk about jesus coming and that it is a future time after the great tribulation.

  i thought they have always said he came in 1914 and earlier at other times (russell).. .

  WHY DO ONLY A FEW START TO QUESTION DOCTRINE CHANGES AND NOT EVERYONE?

  by disillusioned 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there are many on here who state specific changes in wt publications have caused them to start questioning (understandably you would think), and yet the majority don't.

  why is it only a few individuals that do this?

  curious as to what others think about this.

  I asked where is the proof?

  by disillusioned 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  arguing with my husband again, i asked where is the proof that jesus looked down on earth in 1919 and chose a small group of bible students in america apart from them saying it in their magazines.

  also where is the proof that satan and his demons were cast down in 1914 just because first world war started.

  neither of these things are in the bible only in their magazines.

  Secret disfellowshipping

  by disillusioned 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i always thought it was ridiculous that when a person was disfellowshipped they didn't tell us why.

  everybody would speculate, but we wouldn't know the real reason.

  also i thought they were only supposed to be disfellowshipped if they weren't repentant and wouldn't stop doing the wrong thing.
