  Do JW's assist "worldy" people after natural disasters such as Katrina?

  by gaiagirl in

  when new orleans was flooded, did jw's in the area or from out of town gather to help those who were not jw's?

  or were there efforts focused only on kingdom halls and the homes of jw's?

  They sure do at least in their minds they think they help.Let me give you an example.9/11 WTC.an Elder told a R.C.priest he was their giving the workers hope from the Bible and that soon Gods kingdom would bring peace to the world.Than he asked what the priest was he doing there,the priest answered sheepishly as he wlked away 'I am bring water for the workers".Now you tell me who helps worldy people after disasters.

  Just a thought about your Q.what are worldy people?Are not all people from planet earth or are JW from some plave else.

  PS The R.C. donated over $20,000,000 plus food and clothes to the victums of 9/11.

  Blondie's Comments You Will Not Hear at the 10-19-08 WT Study (DIGNITY)

  honor jehovah by displaying dignity .

  this ten-year old has quickly learned that dignity is only the outward appearance.

  why, though, can humans act with dignity?

  Thanks Blondie.

  Boy they are all over the map on this one.I believe the writing dept. scans the internet for their ideas.Q13 what was the "Good News" that Jesus preached? Also what was Jesus ruler of?If he was ruling why did the Jews kill him?

  Gopher--You can find the videos on(youtube.com) Just type in kenny g-Brahms-lullaby in the search engine,click on pix of the baby in yellow.On the related videos click on Kenny G-innicence.

  As for a parent/God I was using a metaphor because I was trying to make a point that you described.Also to point out how wrong some people are in their beliefs.Hope that answers your Q.

  Is it the JW's or the God of the bible you no longer believe?

  by reniaa in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have a question for the ex-jw's on this forum after months of reading the forum..... many say how good it is to be free of the oppressiveness of the jw's that they can now enjoy the freedom to... have sex, celebrate christmas, gamble, embrace politics etc.

  there are still biblical scriptures and principles in place that if you still followed the bible would mean you avoid these things and yet these are now embraced as one of the perks of no longer being a jw so in my confusion i ask.... if these are what you want, isn't it more correct to say you no longer follow the bible as apposed to just the jw's?.

  It is the JW that I don't believe.You see they don't know what the Bible says.They are wishy washy and changed their minds just like the wind.One day the wind is blowing from the East and the next day it is from the West.As has been brought out on the Web, they shut down a site because it told the truth about the WBTS using their own publications. As one example,God's principles don't change yet they changed the principle on Blood.

  You will hear comments at JW meeting,that many so called worldly people have high moral standards but...than attempt to qualify their answers as to why these people are bad.

  As for myself and the Bible ,not enough time or room on this forum.

  Tell Us Dumb Things You've Heard Elders & Bethelites Say

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  there are a lot of dumb organization men.

  gb losch seems to be the top dog for dumbness.. in the local halls i've seen and heard many dumb elders open their mouths.. one elder had a fondness for bible prophecy and watchtower chronology.

  he always speculated on what the "watchtower really means" about a statement in print.

  The way I look at the whole 9 yards/ball of wax.Just live and enjoy life.The more you read the Bible the more pissed off you get.The more you try and figure things out,the more confused you get.As you pointed out in your long narrative.Like I said live and enjoy life.Life is to short to worry about mundane things..that you mentioned.
