  Do JW's now believe the year 2012 will bring armageddon?

  last weekend i was enjoing the good weather in holland with my mother and my kid sister, who still is a jw, on a terras, drinking a beer.. my mother always tries to tell something positive that happened at the cong or something that she read in the washtowel and then i react negative or not at all.

  it's a kind of game i don't know.. this time she said something like despite the fact that armageddon doesn't have to come during the generation of 1914, that does not mean that it isn't near... and then my kid sister reacted on this and said yes...possibly 2012.... i was pretty stunned... of this remark.. has anyone else heard something about the jw's now focussing on the year 2012?.

  quite a few years back i had various pioneer friends who were asked to give experiences at the circuit conventions.. they were to write up there experience first give it to the elder and they would go over it.. however, when it came time for this the elder who was giving the part decided to change their experience and it did not.

  and was not even truthful now, it was not how it happened.

  my one friend in particular was very upset about this because.

  Did You Feel The Love As A Jehovah's Witness?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  other than feeling "love bombed" when you first started associating with the "brotherhood", did you experience the "love" in your years within the organization?.

  if you felt truly loved, was it in reality, a "conditional love"?.

  The "love" was short lived. Once I made MS it disappeared.

  Could Watchtower Collapse Be Sooner Than You Think?

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there have been a number of developments over the past few months and they paint an interesting picture.. witnesses can keep dragging themselves to meetings ad infinitum however, the future of the watchtower itself is another story.

  the evidence of continuing cash flow problems is now overwhelming.

  if you talk to well placed witnesses, most won't deny it but simply blame it on the publishers financial problems.. they have cut off loans to congregations many of whom genuinely need new kingdom halls.

  CNN had Jermaine on this AM and he spoke of their first religion as being JW's and even mentioned the name Jehovah. He said MJ had researched several other religions as Jewish and last was Islam, which is Jermaines religion of choice. They also mentioned that MJ's mother and one sister were still active JW's.
