Peter kicking the apostates DOWN!

by nananana in

certainly if, after having escaped from the defilements of the world by an accurate knowledge of the lord and savior jesus christ, they get involved again with these very things and are overcome, the final conditions have become worse for them than the first.. 21 for it would have been better for them not to have accurately known the path of righteousness than after knowing it accurately to turn away from the holy commandment delivered to them.

22 the saying of the true proverb has happened to them: the dog has returned to its own vomit, and the sow that was bathed to rolling in the mire.

2 peter 2:20-23. the saddest thing about apostates is that they allowed the cunning deception of false reasoning to take root in their heart thus allowing room for satanic influence and mental disease.

Notice how sad and meaningless their lives have become.

My life has infinitely more meaning now than it did. How many apostates do you know personally nana to make that assumption?

The Predictions Thread

i thought it might be interesting and fun to have a "predictions thread", where we set out our predictions for events to unfold concerning the watch tower society (or jehovah's witnesses in general) over the coming years/decades.. it strikes me that so much has happened in the last ten years, most of which has defied expectations.

here's just a few of the developments that i can think of:.

the abolishment of group book studies in favor of a "family worship evening"the creation of a "study edition" watchtowerthe halving of monthly magazine printing commitmentsthe unprecedented closure/merging of branches (16% reduction in branches last year)the menlo park scandal, a body of elders removed for resisting a refurb of their kingdom hallthe lawsuits in victoria, australia - the society taken to court concerning child protection lawscourtroom admissions about the faithful & discreet slave and similarities with the catholic churchincreased hate speech against "mentally diseased" apostatesastonishing lapses of judgment, such as the "selma and steve" study articlethe ditching of gilead as a school for missionariesambitious construction plans for a new world hq (with or without jehovah's blessing!

The Kingdom Ministry will no longer be printed separately but rather inserted into the koolaid Watchtower - by 2016.

The food at the Marriott Marquise is great.

I'd agree with that.

What about the Frrrozen Hot Chocolate at Serendipity3? Is it really all that?

It was OK.

I really liked a restaurant called Isabella's on Columbus Avenue. http://www.isabellas.com/
