jesus set the pattern of humility.
on earth, jehovah god exalted his.
pattern of humility?
Just to keep track of the thread . Anyway the WTBTS just continues to pass on the oportunity to show humility but insists everyone else just obey them and ignore all the changes of which they out right lied about having any true knowledge of what generation survives the end. Would have been a good time to ask for forgiveness and apologize , didn't finish the article yet , probably will at work
and where's the GAG alert ...LOL
several years back i remember listening to a public talk.
the title of the talk escapes me; but one of the points (albeit wierd) that was brought out, is that the part of the mytholgy behind the symbol of apollo was defiance of god.
he made this jump by linking apollo with ishtar (nimrods wife) wife somehow...he used this point in connection with the nasa space program to make the point, that the space exploration was a defiant action against god, as a modern day like nimrod account.
I remember hearing that the belief was that nimrod was building the tower because of the flood and more or less antagonizing God to break his promise of flooding the earth and instead of an ark they would survive because of the tower .
stones can't raise money.
why did you become a jehovah's witness ?.
initially upon entering the religion what were the positive things you experienced ?.
how did that particular way of thinking both benefit and harm you ?.
I plead temporary insanity .
do you think in view that they now have wt production videos.. (a costly endevour) that they might in addition to the www, local and literature donation boxes start a wt video productions box with special guilt laid on parents with small children to donate ?.
it does seem to be all about the money so it wouldn't suprise me...how about you.
why don't they just set up a mosh pit and play , send me your money - by suicidal tendencies ?
memories!
i remember a few years back being involved in the campaign work, and having the distinctly awkward experience of having to hand the householders this piece of sh1t tract "the end of false religion is near!"..
i recall the discomfort i had trying to get into a conversation about this nonsense.
I thought it ended invisibly.
hey!
i just read the watchtower for september 15 and learned that.
momentous events are soon to take place.. .
what's that mean , a herd of obese dubbys coming to the door?
i must admit the jw are good at getting and keeping their money.. france ordered to pay millions for illegal taxation of jehovahs witnesses.
.

It has to be illegal if the world ended invisibly, how can they justify taxing God? LOL
if this is not the epitome of irony, i dont know what is:.

they call those who simply don't agree with their totalitarian dogma "mentally diseased" when there is documented evidence that points out that they are simply projecting their own issues on a group of others they deem "undesirables".
with all that , maybe they are in the right place , keeps them from mingling with sane people since they can't have friends outside the friends. Maybe we just put some padding on the walls and floors and keep a few straight jackets handy then tada we have us a regular funny farm .
is this the perfect time to tell family that are still in that you are so upset/devastated/embarassed over the candace conti revelations and trial and what happened to her as a 9 year old witness that you need to step away from field service and the meetings and do a lot of private praying.
you've been stumbled badly and don't know what to think at this time.
Jesus did say . where ever 2 or 3 are gathered in my name I will be . Never said anything about a book publishing corporation.
