  "Also, they have tails and stings like scorpions; and in their tails is their authority to hurt the men five months." (Rev. 9:10)

  The modern day locusts had a job to do.........errors had to be exposed. Lost sheep had to be found." (Revelation book.)

  The U.S. has been blanketed with the judgement of Jehovah's Organization. People now know more about Jehovah's witnesses than they did after 50 years of preaching.

  Inappropriate "shepherding" calls.

  by avishai in

  how many have recieved calls by the elders that were under the guise of "shepherding", but somehow inappropriate, i.e, you were a woman alone with only one elder showing up, or you felt physically intimidated by both.

  or say they show up at like, 10:30 at night for a shepherding call.

  and you say "hey, i appreciate the visit but please call first!

  So many of you have had such incredible and heartbreaking experiences--and the dubs wonder why we're so bitter!

  My last shepherding call was March 2000. My mother and I were called on (I happened to be visiting) and we both had alot of questions about the new "blood cards." The elder said he wasn't really ready for those questions but made a SPECIFIC appointment for a visit the following week to discuss it. We all wrote this time down in our respective appointment books. Little did I know that the next week we had the CO visiting our cong. When the appointed time came, who was at the door but a man with the coldest eyes I've ever seen and a different elder from the one I expected. The CO took control and had brought Watchtowers for us, and we turned to an article about those who have forsaken the truth but that Jehovah wants back. He had me read the paragraphs and i had tears in my eyes by the time I was done. It all sounded so good on paper, but it never seems to play out that way in reality. Aside from feeling the intended quilt, I also felt that i had been ambushed.

  Today, with all I know about Watchtowers lies, nothing they do would surprise me.

  the latest wt of september 1 2005 has another example of what i now call "the rug pull" where words are used cleverly to blame the flock for their own flagging spirit.

  the mag is "why it pays to be loyal" (not good or kind but that's another thread.

  the setup comes on page 16 para 13: .

  a phone call is a date.

  Mulan,

  recently there was a local needs part at the meeting and bro.dub elder did say that a phone call is a date.

  There is probably nothing written but verbally this is what is being tossed around.

  wanna I just spoke to a sister who went to last night's service meeting. There was a part which said that a phone call is a date. FreeFallin

  this is my first post although i have been reading on this board for over a year now.

  i just had to post because i saw the most unbelievable thing the other night - a commercial for jehovah's witnesses.

  a couple nights ago i couldn't sleep and i turned on the tv.

  Hi Nicki23, And Welcome to the Board!!

  Yes, i saw the same commercial the other night and could not believe it. It wasn't too badly done, either. But i think the message they want to send is Internet=Bad Association, stay off of apostate websites. I don't think children's welfare is one of their major concerns.

  My sad news

  by Fe2O3Girl in

  as some of you on the board knew i was expecting a baby, i feel i should let you know that things have not worked out for us.. when i went for the 20 week ultrasound scan last thursday, severe problems were found with our baby's internal development.

  only one kidney was detected, and it was very enlarged and polycystic.

  there was no long term hope for the baby at all; if it survived to full term it could only live for hours at most.

  englishman had his op today and all is going according to plan.

  he's feeling woozy and sore tonight, but hopefully that will pass in a day or so.

  chris says he will probably have to stay in for about a week, but no doubt he will be posting if he can get hold of a laptop.

  To any JW's who are lurking here please think about this: Even murderers are allowed to have familial visits in prison. Most murderers are not even put away for life without chance of parole. It would be considered cruel and unusual punishment.

  Very true, and so sad.
