  You Lie I Lie

  i am still presently 'active' because of family and have recently been hounded by the elder due to low hours in the ministry.

  i have decided though that i now feel that i can lie on my service report because fds has set the perfect example for me to follow.

  yesterday in the watchtower study they were misleading in refering to millions now living may never die, and also used two scriptures to support the need to witness day and night but the scriptures were completly unrealated and taken out of context.

  How Wonderful

  an elder in my hall gave an experience of why it is so vital that we do not speak to disfellowshipped ones.

  a sister who was disfellowshiped was of course not able to speak with her daughter or see her grandchildren.

  it was difficult for the family to 'adhere to bible principles' but in time the mother/grandmother missed her family so much she returned to the truth.

  C.O. Talked about the fact that we may die in this system

  being that my husband is still going to most of the meetings, i tied into the meeting sunday to see what the co had to say on his last day at the hall.

  one thing i found interesting is that we may die in this system.

  he said when he first learned the "truth" he just knew for sure that the system would end before he was baptized and he was so stressed out from it.

  How easy is it to pretend to be a spirtual JW?

  for arguements sake, lets say you walk into a hall where you are not known and introduce yourself as one of them, how easy would it be to pass yourself off as a fully paid up devout dub?.

  i reckon i could do it even now, pull out a doudy dress, look misarble, say all the right things and thanks to jwn i'm in the know about all the most recent developments.

  Just a thought...

  my convention was last weekend it was the same old but one thing that caught my attention was a comment made by a brother in his talk.

  he said "we are so close to the end, just a couple hours left ....... according to the july 2009 watchtower.

  " it wasn't what he said but how, there was a pause and it almost sounded like he was mocking fds.

  hi i'm dearone i have been reading here for quite some time.

  presently am an active witness in good standing with two teenage daughters.

  what originally brought me her was disillusion with the lack of love i experienced in the congregations i have attended.
