It is interesting that according to the WT you were appointed an Elder by Holy Spirit

w03 3/1 p. 17 par. 17
Further, elders serve in the local Christian congregation and, according to the apostle Paul, are appointed by holy spirit.

So what happened in your case if that is the case?

You were discovering the TATT, then appointed as an Elder. Hmmm...

A family member and I recently saw a UFO. It was very odd. It was very bright, like a star during the day. At first I thought that it was a plane reflecting the sun, or a balloon as I am very skeptical. We observed it for 15 minutes and it never made one sound or moved, or changed altitude. It did wink or fade every so often, until finally it turned off or left, or whatever. It was gone.

I always assume that it is Military craft of some kind. I really have no other explanation. This was the first time that I had someone else see something with me. It was pretty cool.

That's interesting. Where did you see it? Could you take any photos?

Molybdenum:

I apologize for getting your screen name wrong. It wasn't intentional, but your name reminded me of a Clint Eastwood movie where the people were calling their town 'Molly-Be-Dam.' In thinking about it, I think I unintentionally spelled it out as your screen name.

Take Care

Hey.. no problem. I've been called worse things.

Thanks for replying to the thread I started.

Seems like the Japanese government are calling in help from

the USA to deal with the problems at Fukushima.

So everything will be OK now, I guess

http://fairewinds.org/media/radio/olympic-insanity-gundersen-charge-fukushima

explaining the situation at Fukushima and how the

Japanese government is hiding the true facts.

Especially as Tokyo is now the venue for the 2020 Olympics

and PM Abe said in his speech " Everything is under control" which appears to be a barefaced lie.

There is no way that this unprecendented situation

can be considered even remotely under control.

It would seem that the situation is beyond human control.

The consequences of another large earthquake or some kind

of accident with the removal of the fuel rods in reactor 4 building would

almost certainly overshadow what has happened

until now.

So how does God ( Jehovah) fit into this picture.

In Revelation 11:18 it says that God will " bring to ruin those ruining the earth"

Or will God step in and prevent another unprecedented disaster from affecting the whole world,

which is what would probably happen if Fukushima has another major accident.

Would he just stand by and let this happen?

I guess it comes down to how much faith we individually have in God and to what extent he would protect

us from our own folly.

The WT study yesterday

by molybdenum in

( apologies for the large space at the top i don't quite know why .

i sat through the wt study that dealt with all the new understanding.. the conductor started by by saying .

well we wont spend too much time on what we used to believe, we will consider what we believe now.. i took a look round to see how the members of the congregation were reacting to this.. nothing.... .

If you were in a court of law as a witness, you would be asked to swear to tell" the whole truth and nothing but the truth"

However, if you changed your story many times but in your defence said,

"Well, I believed what I said was the truth at the time, but what I am saying now is the truth, however

I might change my mind again in the future", you would probably not be considered to be a reliable witness,

would you. Perhaps even be in contempt.

( Apologies for the large space at the top I don't quite know why )

I sat through the WT study that dealt with all the new “understanding”.

The conductor started by by saying

“well we won’t spend too much time on what we used to believe, we will consider what we believe now”.

I took a look round to see how the members of the congregation were reacting to this.

Nothing....

The study or lesson, whatever you want to call it, proceeded as usual.

We might as well have been discussing how to make scrambled eggs.

Just the usual parroting of what is written in the paragraph.

The only highlight was when a brother commented that probably many

will stream in to Jehovah’s organization after the start of the Great Tribulation,

when it states quite clearly in the WT article para 13

Until the great tribulation begins, people still have time to change their thinking and start walking on the cramped

road “leading off into life.”

The same wording appeared under the picture on page 7. Obviously hinting that

after the Great Tribulation starts there will be no way that people can

change their thinking. The door would be closed.

So this Brother caused an interesting pause while the conductor tried to

digest a comment that wasn’t actually written in the paragraph.

Then another Brother stuck his hand up and “ corrected” the comment.

But after that it settled back in into the routine.

After the study finished a group of Elders huddled together obviously discussing this point.

But on the whole no one seemed to grasp the significance of what

was being studied in relation

to what was taught as truth before.

How was your meeting, if you attended?

It wasn't supposed to be like this

by molybdenum in

this is not the way it was supposed to be.

gray hair and pains in the knee.

you will not grow old or suffer from age.

This is not the way it was supposed to be

gray hair and pains in the knee

You will not grow old or suffer from age

that’s what I saw printed on the page

No need to save for your old age

or look for a job with a nice big wage

just be out on service and pioneer

make that your most challenging career

The New System will come so very soon

quicker than the next New Moon

It’s round the corner, can’t you see

Have faith in the WT society

But time has gone by and nothing has come

I get the feeling I that I’ve been done

Now I am old with no money to spend

It really is driving me round the bend

Can I hope that the end will be soon

Can I still give that idea room?

It ‘s round the corner, can’t you see

But this is not the way it was supposed to be.
