  this couple in our hall an elder and his wife gave us a anniversary gift.

  it is a wall hanging that says "as for me and my household sister life is to short and hubby will worship jehovah forever.".

  i felt i should send her a thank you card even though i hate the gift.

  Hang on to your convictions, life is short. That had to be the stupidist analogy I've ever heard.

  Just reading over those posts of theirs made me realize how stupid we all used to sound. I never thought I'd see the day that Jesus name was more offensive than the "f" word. Geez.

  My son uses them. It was the only thing that worked for him. He hasn't smoked a real cig, in almost a year I think.

  response from Ray Franz on generation change

  thanks for your letter and the thoughts contained.

  others had commented on the latest shift of the interpretation of this generation.

  as you recognize this allows for an unending extension of time and likely stems from an awareness of the approach of the year 2014 marking 100 years since the date of 1914.. .

  Thanks Isaac & Ray. The bible is fairly easy to understand when we allow the holy spirit to teach us rather than allow men to skip & jump from verse to verse and force us to accept there teachings as the wt does.

  Did You Hope Certain Newly Appointed Elders Would Change Things In Your Hall?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i used to hear it all of the time!

  i was 24 when i was first appointed as an elder.

  certain ones who were disillusioned with the "old guard" were really hoping i'd come on board and change the way the body of elders did things.

  Min, did you have trouble being accepted because you were appointed young?

  To your question, not really. I didn't think about it much, except that my husband was always jealous because he couldn't understand why he was never appointed.
