according to ecclesiastes 3:11, the concept of eternity is part of our makeup.. it's mind-boggling to think about it.. sylvia.

Oh, just now saw the post about Acts 13:19-20.

I'm trying to figure out how Paul arrived at that figure.

The closest I've come, based on the Book of Jasher, is 445 years.

Is this new donation arrangement for real?

by nugget in

just read a post on jwsurvey about the new donation arrangement.

congregations are to pledge a monthly amount to be sent to the society to fund the building of assembly halls and kingdom halls.

congregations who already have a loan from the society will no longer have to pay back the loan but the amount pledged should not be less than the current monthly repayments to the society.

What has been revealed is that nothing is too farfetched for the WT organization.

Their demise looms, they can sense it.

They've never had to deal with anything like this before.

Let us just stay calm and allow the "moles" to do their thing.

Don't let the negativity chase you away, John.

I know the lack of appreciation for your efforts can be disheartening, but you do a great service by reporting WT's shenigans.

Thank you, and may you continue to be blessed.

Studied with JW grandma for 3 years and went to meetings, I have now seen the light!

im new here and im 17, going to turn 18 in 1 week.

i studied with my gradma the bible teach book and went to meeting with her and other relatives (considering most my relatives are jw except my parents) and i believe in all of it because i never read the bible for myself.

after reading the gospels i started noticing contradictions in the jw doctrine like when jesus said many would dine with the patriachs in the kingdom of heaven (yet only 144,000 jws can) which would seem odd considering the fact he adressed this to more then the apostles.
