....either in publications, during talks or by individual witnesses?.
At the DC this past year in a demo:
Speaker: so brother soandso you lost you job and then you wife lost her job, what did you do?
Bro sosandso: We decided to pioneer!
PS: Right before he ended the final of the three demos he quickly mentions that three months later they found another job.
in todays watchtower study the picture on page 10.a family is having a study.where is the bible.any one else see this.sorry i don't have a scanner.

Does anyone have a scan of this?
some of you may remember me posting a few days ago that my shop had become some jw's magazine route.
well today the staff who was supposed to man the shop has called in sick, which meant that i had to go in and open up.
who should i find waiting for me on the door step with a big beaming self righteous grin on his face but a jw!
he obviously doesn't know his core beliefs.
This is the arguement I used with my wife a while back. We are not allowed to belive anything, it really is just memorization of what ever they want to call facts this week.
it's very interesting comparing things that are removed.
for one, new world order and new world, new order, all being eliminated from everything.
just research nwo, "new world order", etc, to see.
ARE YOU SERIOUS????
Old book - "In his place each one be heeding, what Christ Jesus has to say" - NEW ONE -> "Stay alert to Christ's direction, Through his faithful slave today, heed the counsel of the older men"
ARE YOU SERIOUS????
february 15, 2010 wt: the spirit and the bride keep on saying "come!".
paragraph 7: "the members of the bride class--the spirit-anointed christians--are the first to extend the invitation to come.
well, the bride is not saying "come!
Oddly enough the timeline on the side of the page says for 1932 the invitation was extended beyond the anointed, and in 1935 the great crowd was identified.
So to ask your question again who was this invitation to between 1918 and 1935?
If they thought that everyone was anointed then, were thousands of people suddenly declared to no longer have a heavenly hope?
Who made that decision for them?

I guess we can give them a pass since there really was such a talk as "may never die", but it is very underhanded that they chose this since there were only a handful of these before it was changed to "WILL" and got published in many advertisements and literature. Very few people even know that there was ever a talk by this title.
I think it is very interesting that the picture right next to the the paragraph that quotes the public talk "millions now living MAY nerver die", has the advertisment (photograph) for the convention talk that "Millions now living WILL never die".

(this question is directed to all the atheist and agnostics in the forum only).
i like most of the people here believed in a god who created us and the earth.
it was easy to explain the reason on many things like the degrees of inclination of the earth, the existance of water in our planet, the existance of an atmosphere, they joy in all the senses, the clear superiority of the human beens versus all other animals, the posesion of a brain who attempts to explain itself.
For me, design or purpose is a figment of man's imagination.
This is the same imagination that allows us to see faces is clouds and paintings and toast.
We are all going to ge suprised when the aliens that seeded us here return to harvest us.
Just saying, there are many more than two possabilites.
i read on a facebook thread some talking about going to a jw therapist, i didnt't know there were any.
i remember a young girl that da and my mother blamed it on a "worldly" therapist.
knowing what i know of her family it had to be the best decision of her life.. .
Holy crap this is scary: I remember the sister telling me that she had to sign a waiver stating that if during one of their sessions she mention breaking a bible principle she was aware that he would call the Elders in her Hall.
How could you be complety honest with someone like this? It would be like talking to the cops where anything you say can and WILL be help against you, and I guarantee it will.
i have just been entrusted with a copy of one of the manuscript talks to be given at this years district convention.
the talk is entitled wearing our full spiritual armor in these last days, and will be delivered during the sunday morning session.
below is the manuscript that was provided to me.
right after this he continues: young people, dont visit sites like w ww dot jehovahs dash witness dot net, or www dot free minds dot org, if you want to know the history of the organazation, use the Procalimers book, not web sites like www dot silent lambs dot com.
