Fairly reliable

I use "Holman Christian Standard"
There are many others too

Can use just about any translation
as long as you know where the land mines are

So-and-so is no longer one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Freedom!

last night i was sitting in the service meeting listening to a brother read the announcements.

one main part of the announcements was to read part of the km that had to do with the upcoming two day circuit assembly (ours is next month ... even though we just had the district convention last month ... geez).

the km article talked about how the circuit assembly would warn us against satan's new tools--the internet, education, and entertainment.

Totally agree
It takes effort and study
to free oneself from
the mind control

I was out for 28 years
and just recently learned
that I still had residual
blocks

I still wonder what may be lurking

What teaching did you find unacceptable that made you question the WTS?

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

the selection of the society in 1919 as the faithful and discreet slave after jesus spent nearly 5 years observing them.

jesus must have had some good lsd.

For me
an attitude thing

I made mistake
willingly paid price

Continued to get hounded
Continued to get hauled before JC
Continued to get harassed by
couple of elders

So I left

Found out later
presiding elder had a case of as*
for my father that had been on JC
that had DF his niece

Great
Real loving attitude

Later in life learned all the
other crap

Clincher has been that
they are a dangerous mind control CULT!!

shock breakthrough with my wife

by stillajwexelder in

so my wife out of the blue says .

"i thought when we went under ban, everyone would still meet in peoples houses at the the book groups.

now they are doing away with that arrangement, what does it all mean.?

LockedChaos

That's good Stilla
A glimmer of thinking

Now that gas prices are dropping in the U.S.
will they re-instate the home book study??

It's a lame excuse to begin with. Maybe start
a rumor?

at the bookstudy on thursday, one of the elders that is "investigating" me called on me to comment.

he didn't call on me to pray though.

afterward, he gave me a km.

The rumor mill is churning
and you're in the wash

Many of those friends may be conditional
Good Luck!!

following on again from my posts re elder not leaving wheni asked etc i am sending a letter to the elders about it and saying not tocall.

could you cast your peepers over it please and let me know what you think?of course they may d'f hubby if i get him to sign it also but its what hes waiting for so than won't matter!.

this week (elders name) called on our house whilst 'working' our street, despite our having a sign stating 'no religious callers' that he has seen before.. i asked him politely to put his bible away in view of this, he rufused as i am "not the head of the house".

My opinion

Don't make it too detailed
or put in too much information

Keep it VERY simple
No need for any more confrontation
than is absolutely necessary

Their eyes will glaze over and
it will sound like an adult in a
Charlie Brown cartoon
(wha,wha,wha,wha,wha)

A formal request for no calls to
be made should be honored

If not...............
