  Alpha Meetings! What are they? Who are they?

  by freeborg in

  2. friends

  i was wondering if any one has ever been involved or are involved in a group known as alpha.

  they provide a 15 meeting course on their beliefs.

  these groups and others like them have made me wonder if we all agree that wts is corrupt and harmfull what makes another group with strong beliefs and convictions right, are we not falling into the same trap as when we were witnesses if we get involved in any of the hundreds of sects, cults, denominations that are out there.. http://alphacourse.org/about/whatis.htm

  i have never missed a memorial in 20 years of being a jw, but this year will be the first one i miss because i refuse to set foot in any kingdom hall.

  i was wondering how many that post here will attend the memorial and if so why?.

  do you feel pressured into going by family or friends?.

  Care for the Anointed

  by freeborg in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have just read the thread that was started with the comment regarding the anointed.

  it brought a smile to my face because not so long ago my wife was still working in a nursing home for jehovahs witnesses run by witnesses.

  she had been there for over five years and in that time-helped care for five of the anointed class.

  Halt On Building Work! Update

  by freeborg in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  over a week ago a comment was made regarding a global halt on all kingdom building work.

  these rumours started in the united kingdom and came from a number of sources.

  as per usual the truth of the rumour is a bit different from what is said on the witness grapevine.

  Why Are We Still Here!!!!

  by freeborg in

  *** w80 10/15 31 questions from readers ***.

  as indicated by an article on page 56 of u.s. news & world report of january 14, 1980, if you assume that 10 is the age at which an event creates a lasting impression on a persons memory, then there are today more than 13 million americans who have a recollection of world war i. and if the wicked system of this world survived until the turn of the century, which is highly improbable in view of world trends and the fulfillment of bible prophecy, there would still be survivors of the world war i generation.

  however, the fact that their number is dwindling is one more indication that the conclusion of the system of things is moving fast toward its end.. the above is taken from a 1980 watchtower which said it would be highly improbable that we would see the turn of the century.. is it just me or are we all still here in 2002!!!!

  "15 Minute Publisher" ?

  by freeborg in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  thanks for all the comments regarding the leaflet on my previous post, all have been read.

  if we can all take action in our individual areas we become a mighty nation capable of causing havoc to those who have fooled us to many times.

  i have another question to ask, recently i noticed a phrase used which was " 15 minute publisher ".

  Anti-JW leaflet campaign

  by freeborg in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have been a reader of this message board for a number of years and this is the first comment i have made in that time.

  i have been part of the wts for 20 years my parents believed they had found the truth when i was 10 and from then on we hung to every word uttered from the platform at the kingdom hall.

  my wife was a witness brought up in the wts all her life so the wts was a massive part of all our familes lives from parents to brothers and sisters.
