I'm 90% PIMO but events in Russia made me stop and think maybe Jehovah is real and helping
by Isambard Crater ini'm at the stage where i'd love a big scandal to come along showing clearly that the j.w's are not the true religion, but sometimes i get touched inside by various thoughts or events, the russian court trial being one of them.. i mean, j.w's are understandably fixated with attending the memorial, so why didn't the court say it will resume on monday or tuesday, instead setting wednesday 12 april as the date?
part of me believes the comments from pro-j.w's that jehovah moved events so they could attend the memorial.. it seems the j.w's will not be banned, which makes my mind and heart wrestle between thinking jah's behind it, or maybe the ministry of justice is just woefully prepared compared to the superb australian royal commission team who did their homework.
it surprises me the russians seemingly haven't done any homework..

Why are the individuals who make up the Governing Body so deluded
by UnshackleTheChains insurely these men must see what's going on.
if they can afford fancy pinky rings, they must have smart phones.
if they have smart phones, they must be inquisitive as to how they are perceived.

If they can afford fancy pinky rings ...
Now, now.
One of them has a browny ring, if one at all.

WT Society Creates the Atmosphere which Spawns Child Abuse in Congregations
by flipper inbeen thinking about this lately after almost 14 years out of the jw cult myself.
when you think of the language used within the jehovah's witness organization in such a closed society environment in how the wt society promotes almost absolute " trust " in the elders , the governing body, and trust even in the " friends " in the congregation themselves- is it any wonder that unscrupulous child molesters can enter any congregation pretending to be " spiritual " and take advantage of unsuspecting children or the parents ?
think about it : an individual is judged as a " spiritual " person within the jw organization based on what wt functions or duties they are good at performing.

Flipper, good thread, Brother.
You are right; WT fosters an environment where scammers and abusers can roam freely.
Down here, we have a reputation for being trusting and hospitable, and city slickers sometimes try to take advantage of this.
One came down from Detroit, and a pushy sister tried her best to get my little JW daughter interested in him.
This sorry you-know-what didn't even have a job; I told her if she didn't get him off my property, I would notify my daughter's crazy Jamaican dad.
Yay, mon.
That was all it took to send both of them running like a scalded dog!
The nerve of them! I'm getting steamed all over again just thinking about it.

Yes, indeed, Bravo!
Here are some concerns that I noted.
Colossians' in the possessiveness should be written this way at all times.
Page 1 Style and Vocabulary - Colossians has many terms that appeal nowhere else ... Appear?
Page 1 Image of the Body of Christ - Paul certainly maintains that the church is one throughout the world and in its many manifestations, but he does not use "body" to express that ides in the undisputed letters. Idea?
Page 2 Alternate View - The consensus of scholarly opinion is the Philemon is incontestably Pauline ... That?
You have a remarkable way of making deep stuff understandable.
Thanks, again and again.
Love.

Hey, as we say in Alabama.
I never fail to learn something new from your studies.
Namely, that Paul's authorship of some Epistles attributed to him is questionable.
I knew about Hebrews, but not the others.
Also, what is your take on Colossians 4:16?
Thanks so much.
