  If nobody knows about it,,,who cares.

  If they ''snoop" or ""prod"" you about it,,deny.

  Theocratic warfare.

  Sagely advice of a CO

  “a circuit overseer started out by saying that on this last round of the circuit, the one thing he noticed the most...is that everyone is physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually drained...and that cuts across all barriers and demographics within the truth.

  he then said that the one common thread that ran among nearly everyone was this: we feel guilty for feeling bad.

  he said because we are told to endure with joy, our minds can cause us to feel enormous guilt over feeling this way...and then, my dear brothers and sisters...he proceeded to blow our collective minds.. he asked us to turn to daniel 8:27….

  Seems like more and more of the meetings are anti-apostate.

  Holy $hit.

  I had no idea such "letters" existed. Now,,,this is really upsetting,,disturbing.

  Elders,,by knowing about this proves how culpable they are.

  They know about this "dark secret"". Every elder,,,no matter how ""Dr Jeckel"" and kind he may seem has this "dark secret".

  Shame on all of them.

  There was someone saying over on the reddit forum,,,,if I understand correctly,,,,that when a accident or emergency takes place the nurses and health care professionals won't even bother to ask if you're a JW or not or ask for documentation.

  That they will just administer blood as they see fit. That there is NO time to waste asking questions and stuff...

  More power to them....

  People live their lives in misery sometimes because they are 'captive'

  Captive in thought,,,the illusion of what the Borg promises obscures their thinking powers.

  The "hope" of a paradise,,resurrected loved ones,,,

  These things are what keep the $heeples captive in thought and prevents them from thinking critically

  Meetings were bad back then.

  by Rattigan350 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  meetings have always been bad.. if paul had to "command" people to not forsake the gatherings, the meetings must have been really bad.. considering that jesus said in matt 18:20 "for where there are two or three gathered together in my name, there i am in their midst.”".

  and then in matt 11:28-30: "come to me, all you who are toiling and loaded down, and i will refresh you.

  take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for i am mild-temperedi and lowly in heart, and you will find refreshment for yourselves.

  Meetings are just always about governing praise as always .

  So is the literature.
