  today's text -.

  sunday, january 24. they collected the fine ones into containers, but the unsuitable they threw away.—matt.

  13:48.. understanding the lesson of this illustration helps us to avoid being overly distraught or disappointed if a bible student or one of our children does not make the truth his own.

  the double speak really is nauseating ;

  unwilling to submit to jeehovahs rulership

  fails to dedicate his life to jeehovah

  a window of opportunity FFS

  all boils down to the genocide of billions, pathetic really.

  speaking with inlaws i another congregation today who said exactly what is being said in our own hall.

  the trolly work is long and boring and no one even notices they are there anymore but walk right on by.

  so true, the idiots that seem to be the decision makers with the WT were years late with this so called way of reaching the masses , the only excitement they get in my local town is when I walk past them and take their written trash that gets dumped as soon as I get home, an utterly pointless waste of every ones time, why can they wake up?

  knock knock

  by Sabin in

  if jw`s come knocking at your door, do you open it & engage in conversation, tell them to sod off, or just not answer the door?.

  my husband`s has asked me not to answer the door to them if he isn't here?

  he hate`s the fact that they make a point of calling when they know he will be at work.

  never knew any members of my old cong that had drug problems but certainly there was a big drinking culture in the entire cong/circuit and over the whole of the UK , we had a brother join our cong some years ago, very zealous, good speaker and eventually was made an elder, he used to be proud of the fact that he was a recovering alcoholic who hadn't touched the booze in many years and would openly talk about his past, he was a carpenter and did a lot of work in the homes of members of the cong, he also used to pick up work from non jw neighbours of the houses he was working on including my neighbour, my neighbour was not only a very good buddy but my drinking pal, he used to tell me that not only did he go out drinking with this elder he'd seen him on numerous times coming out of the liquor store with with bottles of whiskey! he was carrying on as an elder still spinning the same old story about how he'd beaten his battle against the booze !

  RvW, I see Derek getting more and more angry and possibly see him either hurting himself or someone else and end up back in prison, I never knew about The Excel Arena protest either, goodness knows what he has planned next

  I know Derek but this method is probably the very worst way to reach out to jw's , he's already served a few months in jail for bail breaches when he stormed his KH, cant believe he wants to go back to jail, because thats where he's ending, I think he needs some professional help. That was utterly embarrassing

  not a milestone that should be celebrated IMO, full of anger,hate and agendas, just think what doubting jw's think when they stumble upon them. Their behaviour in recent months has been nothing short of shameful.
