well its a week since johnny wilkinson kicked the frogs into touch on their home turf, and i cant wait for the match tonight.. loads of people at work have bet on an england win (not at the bookies, just in the staff sweepstakes!

) and i cant help thinking they are voting with their hearts rather than their heads.

still coming second is no shame, given how stupendously crap we have been recently.. am off for an all you can eat chinese before the match - gonna need some serious fuel for 8pm, and i think every pizza`delivery man in the land is going to be overworked.. anyone else all revved up for the limb fest that is going to be england v south africa?.

Exciting announcements at service meeting
by truthseeker in

we've already had a post on this, but there were other interesting comments.. the brother giving the announcements said that there would be a new understanding of jesus' reference to the generation as discussed at the annual meeting.. an elder giving a service meeting part review of different watchtower articles from the current year brought out the new light concerning 1935.. he asks: "when is the sealing of the anounted ones?".

elder answers: "there is no specific date".

later after the meeting, i asked an elder if the new understanding of the remnant now meant that younger people could go to heaven.. he answered with an affirmative "yes" and that we would be getting the new understanding of the generation jesus spoke of in a future 2008 watchtower.. .

so one year of lots of questions and showing doubts, and missing quite a few meetings but still going out in service, doing mics, reading, hall projects...then i get the new light from society regarding the letter i sent them (wow, stunned me, blew me away) and i let them know how i felt about it and i quit the ministry after 40 active years.

nobody says anything about this, no counsel, no will you go out with us on saturday.

not a single "were is your time for the month" phone call.

the watchtower says that all early christians were preachers.

you couldn't be a christian if you weren't a preacher/teacher.

how would you refute that?
