  Un-****ing-Believable

  2. bible

  just a few observations from this morning.

  .. this morning as i was trying to choke back the bile that kept wanting to come up during the wt study one comment in particular screamed cult.. towards the very end as comments were being made about "counseling" others with "gracious" words one of the uber-dub minstral-serpents made this comment, "we see in the last image that the brother is holding a bible as he counsels the other brother.

  we look closely at the picture and we can know exactly what he is counseling the brother about.

  Oh wait-- did you pick up the well meaning sister who counseled a mother of a son who was somewhat wayward?????

  Laid it on the SINGLE mother that SHE FAILED at child training!!! I could just hear myself listening to that and tearing her face off..... how dare she..........a well meaning sister!!! Not on your life... that was a terrible callous remark meant to hurt a single mother who probably has to work her a... off to keep the kid in clothes, food , etc. and take crap from him at the same time

  Disgusting example of how the sister treated the single mom .

  Should this Body of elders be considered blood guilty?

  by dbq407 in

  2. experiences

  over the weekend a very nice, caring individual was killed in a car accident after meeting.

  she was 32 y/o and has a 3 year old daughter.

  her husband was driving home from meeting when his car slid off the road, came back on the road, and was broad sided by a truck.

  Its true, they focus on meeting attendance, but where I live, and its snowing or road is icy, home is where I stay!! I don't need a call to tell me something may go wrong.. and my car is well equipped ....... common sense plays a big part..... Maybe the husband was controlling enough to say they were going to the meeting... who knows, an accident is an accident, .... especially with a 3 year old, where were their two heads??? She may have been so under the thumb that she didn't think for herself in this matter.....

  Yet so many are brain washed, its a terrible thing when you give your common sense over to others... Gerrnany was a good example in WW2 - and that was a whole nation or 99 percent of it was

  I know I would not be travelling to a hall that is 50 miles or kilometers away for a 1 hour 45 min meeting......... so they may be seeing a decrease in their average pub number next year if this keeps up.. its bad enough you are travelling farther to the conventions now which is costing more, and the economy getting worse....

  Yet in the latest Yearbook they show an increase in congregations to feed the pubs.... because, all these congregations are being "fed" in one hall with 2 - 4 congregations per hall... what an increase!!! They are selling off publisher paid and kept brick and mortar buildings and dispersing them to the boonies.... what ever happened to gas savings (even though it is lower today than previous)..... there has to be a law!! Where is it?? Somebody on board must be a lawyer that can get together a class action suit.... anybody??

  Midweek meeting

  by loneranger in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  almost two months into the change in format of the mid week meeting from the school and service meeting format to the christian life and ministry (clam) format.

  in my congregation, seems attendance is down 10-15% over the normally low attendance for the mid week meeting before the change.

  some indicate that the meeting under the clam format is very "intense"...you really need to study and research to be able to participate or get anything out of the meetings.

  Good point Big Dummy, I must watch out for Jesus name

  No change in attendance that is noticeable -- some moving out -- and yes! Elders are to be positive to keep the cong upbeat and excited about the "work"....

  Cant do it yet, even with clear browsing history.... but I sometimes wonder if the org can track if we are on here long enough -- so much for my techie information

  Especially so since the new 2016 DVD will get your online info when you register to get the "updates"????

  So I am not doing that but it is just a question..
