Was the Christ invisibly present in 1914?
I don't know, I wasn't around in 1914, I've only been here since 46 and I haven't seen Christ anywhere if he's present I sure wouldn't know.
was jesus invisibly present in 1914?.
at this point, some may ask, what exactly are, the appointed times of the nations?
notice from the words of jesus, this trampling first began at the murder of abel by his brother cain, who was the, 'seed of satan the devil.

hi all, i'm a long time lurker, ready to join in and add my two cents worth now and then!
i was in the religion for 25 years, out now for 8, along with my husband, daughter, and son!
i would have to say pretty much the whole time i was in i didnt want to be, pretty much "dreaded" all aspects of it, meetings, service, assemblies, and talks, i hated talks, man o man would i be grouchy the whole week i had a scheduled talk.. we didnt have much family in, but lots of friends and many jw employees, pretty much lost all that, down to just one jw employee left(thats a good thing).
Welcome, glad to have you in our community
so we all know the jw vocabulary is a weird one.
what words or phrases bugged you the most?.
a few of mine:.
Self Abuse.
I don't like that name because it make's masturbation sound wicked and even criminal.
It's just another way of guilt tripping the R&F
what do you thinkd the governing body's master plan is?
build a "vatican city" for jw in canada?
then plot to take over the world?
They are all captives of a concept. Just like we were.

I'm kinda thinkin that all of the fraction crap the bORG has put into the rules is getting many of the R&F confused.
Especially if they are under duress as this young woman was. The fact that the hospital got direct instructions from the woman telling them she would only take platelets and plasma raises a flag. She probably thought those two componants were considered to be fractions.
I also believe the hospital was correct in taking the stand it did

i have been around in this forum a lot but haven't written much yet.. also i had a more or less rude awakening when i realized that the religion i grew up with, the religion i sacrificed a lot for and considered to be the 'truth' is nothing but mere bs.
it's quite a brick to digest.. my parents both are jws, elder and pioneer.
very good people but also very brainwashed.
Welcome, I look forward to your insights on meetings, CA's, SA's and DA's. I hope you share your observations on attitudes of those you meet who are still in the Org.
watchtower switching horses?.
today i uploaded a new article addressing the de-emphasis of charles taze russell sensed at watchtowers recent annual meeting.
it turns out that pictures tell a story.
Watch out Judge, your the next one to get flushed by the New JW Org.
at today's special assembly in natick ma, bro brown payne annouced to the audience that serena williams was disciplined by her local elders for her swearing escapade on tv.. saying: "can jehovah's witnesses swear like that on tv?
" then he told the audience that she was "disciplined" by the elders of the congregation she's a publisher in.. doesn't this smack of revealing the private business of another person?
the most the local elders could have said was "a matter concerning serena williams has been handled by the elder body".
I wonder if they switched off putting her on their knees and smacking her ass.
a video will be posted later today where all the mysteries of god, the disgusting thing causing desolation, all the contradictions in the bible, why god in the old testament seemed so cruel, why was satan created if god is good, how is god love?
all of the prophecies jesus had foretold which were hidden and lost yet being fullfilled the entire time.
this is the good news that will then spread worldwide, and then the end will come.
Oh boy, I can hardly wait. Does this mean the end is here?
