governing body member samuel heard talk -are you ready for the finishing line?.
so my witness "friend" plays this talk to show how near armagedon is.
his 18 y.o daughter said "it was scary" well shocking!
seem the delusional talk by this person goes to show just how out of touch with reality they really are. And Yes it seems that there is always a lot of talk about love in the congregation and me wonders just how many in congregations have secret hopes that others they don't like will be killed in the great trib?
They are all just a bunch of whack jobs.
misgivings, to be sure, .
another pursued her .
with real intent, a burning zeal.
Paul had just possibly tried to get widows to marry in the Lord, so as to not marry people of "pagan" religions, there were Jewish women who may have still be Jews in their belief structure for worshiping God, and of course there were Christian women. So to me it has always been just advice to marry in the Lord, afterall Paul didn't really specify just which Lord he was talking about. Yahweh or Jesus.
i can't help but equating the suppression of women in middle east countries with how the watch tower suppress them.
no right to teach at the meetings, women told to hold husbands in high regard, but not women.
it pisses me off because their are many women more qualified than men that are put in positions of power.

That is one reason I have told my daughter that i don't want her to be anypart of the cult of JWs.
why is it you also overstep the commandment of god because of your tradition?
like the pharisees, the watchtower is overstepping the commandment of god because of tradition.
(psalm 118:9; 146:3) yet, where does jehovah, through his word, command a christian not to grow a beard at all?
I have been wearing a goatee for about 1 1/2 years now. Only got stramge looks at first, I ignored all of them, had several comments about it and said my grooming is my business and not yours so butt out. that seemed to take care of the comments, except at assemblies and district whooplahs, told them to to butt out, and did ask several what is your problem? I don't and didn't take shit off of anyone on the goatee, it is my business and not theirs.
i always cringed so hard when a "brother" or "sister" would make some overly heartfelt comment about jehovah-something, usually related to a personal experience of theirs, and get all teared up and/or start crying.. once this fringe dude that's been df'd twice now was giving a talk and kept having these long awkward pauses where he looked like he was real stressed out, then he would start up again, stutter, slip up, and repeat the process until he looked down and went "i, i just can't do this" and walked off the stage and left the hall.. it also made my spchincter pucker when a young person would give some super devotional comment on how much they love big j and whatnot, which would make the congregation all smile in their hearts and wag their heads in approval..
There was one sister in the congregation that i used to attend, that always answered then mentioned something else to follow later in the study. like who gave a crap. she always did that and i found it to be very annoying.
each kingdom hall of jehovah's witnesses have cleaning days, where families gather to clean the hall.
three cleaning days a year, spirng, fall and before the memorial offers a pediophile time alone with the children.
it takes only one assault against a child to make it a crime.
Cleaning the hall was something presented as a privilege for the rank and file, I quite participating in it sometime ago, at least a couple of years ago, I saw no privilege in it, was something that they were bringing up in announcements and added to sometalks as if i were a commandment frm God. What a bunch of BS.
omg, one of my friends who hasn't removed me from her list eventhough i shoot down all the jw propaganda she sends me, sent me an email about phil donahue visiting a kingdom hall, with pics and all.. they claim he said that jw have done more for human rights during ww2 then any other group in america.. is this true?
has anyone else heard about this?.
i want to send phil the letter where the jw's wrote to hilter to tell them they don't like the jews either.. .
For sure the WTBTS doesn't believe in free speech for the rank and file.
apologies if already discussed - the second cos talk discusses 4 "important" areas where jws need to consider the biblical principles involved.. answers on a postcode ( clue - one word - 2 letters - 1st letter is "n" ).
should a true christian?:.
(1) use a social networking website.
The WTBTS policy there will be no gatherings and get togethers for fun, soicialization etc. until moral improves, and then only if an elder is present when the morale improves.
my sisters' funeral service was just appalling.
an absolute disgrace.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/medical/216561/1/my-sister-died-this-morning-after-refusing-blood-on-four-occasions.
the funeral was held today for my sister when every opportunity was used as a sales pitch to promote their malignant message, in this case to any non jw's that may be present, just like any other pyramid scam it seems.. the person whose funeral it is just has a minor bit part to play compared to the main feature , the promotion of the all encompassing multi-talented multi-tentacled wts that you can rely on to guide misguide and pervade every nook and cranny of your life including when to die.. and why not, because as gods only prophet to all mankind, they don't just hear gods voice, they are gods voice.. ***watchtower 1957 june 15 p.370*** "it is vital that we respond to the directions of the "slave" as we would to the voice of god.
Wish to pass on my condolences to you, I recently lost my wife after many years of marriage, I know how you must feel. So sorry for your loss and the fact you had to sit through the memorial service by the bitchtower.

What does NKSJ stand for? i plead ignorance in this case.
