  worked for the local authority Blondie, I worked there for a couple of years also in the early 1990's it was a relaxed working environment, but as we know they use creative ways to pad out their hours plus they were very early starts in the mornings, like the way some used to do 24 hour gas station witnessing starting out an some ridiculously early time in the morning and still counting their until that evening if they take a bible study to a meeting etc

  I remember a guy in my cong who became a regular pioneer while still holding a full time job and never seen out on FS ever in the week, had a couple of bible studies but used to stroll through the hours each month when it was 90, he claimed that he could sometimes count 18 hours per day just witnessing to work colleagues! personally I may have added a couple of hours extra per month I couldn't wait to become inactive.

  Babylon The Great / World Empire of False Religion, do JW`s even preach that anymore ?

  by smiddy3 in

  when was that first preached , with the book babylon the great has fallen gods kingdom rules ,the 1970`s ?

  where they claimed that false religion had a fall in 1919 and that it was continuing to that day .

  however today we see not babylon the great that is falling ,but the jehovah`s witnesses religion that are on the decline ,selling off branches , kingdom halls in one place after another throughout the earth .. and only a couple of years ago they were predicting they would be needing thousands of kingdom halls to be built for the expected influx of new worshippers ?

  the current “news” on jw.borg.

  https://www.jw.org/en/news/legal/.

  look closely at he picture of “russian” police breaking in to what appears to be a utility shed.. first, you’d have to be a complete moron to believe anything you see.. the “police” are shown using a garden pic to open a door.

  Secondary fulfilment to prophecy?

  by Doug Mason in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in its use of the prophecy contained in nebuchadnezzar's dream (daniel 4), the wts applies a "greater fulfilment" beyond its initial application.. while they complain about the wts's action, at the same time these people make their own secondary applications to prophecies, such as with micah 5:2. these people also find "greater" meaning to historical statements, such as at isaiah 9:6 and at isaiah 53.. such passages had their local meaning yet people are prepared to find their "greater application" which suits their ends, just as the wts does.

  it is not an excuse to say that the nt writers indulged themselves in the practice.. i am not saying that i agree with the practice; i am simply seeking consistency and integrity.. doug.

  there is no original or secondary fulfilment of any biblical prophecy, there are no prophecy's

  INSANE last days speculation in 10/2019 WT

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the october 2019 study edition, speaking of the last days after the governments destroy all religion except jws:.

  at some point, the people whose re-ligions were destroyed may resent thefact that jehovah’s witnesses keep prac-ticing their religion.

  we can only imag-ine the uproar that this might create, in-cluding on social media.

  I wonder what evidence they have that can show the "governments will destroy all religions?" its just insanity, the furthest from that scenario is happening liberal left wing societies cant do enough to accommodate religious groups, even if that scenario was to happen its many many decades away.
