it's amazing how a bad experience can trigger action.
Hi Katewild, I'm so glad for you, you beautiful women you.
Actually my husband is having some issues with his ( grown up) daughter ( of his divorced first wife, a nice women I know well) and he heard your sons song and sent it to his daughter to try and mend bridges! What a lovely boy your son is.
Kwiki- mart eh? Wow....I looooovve the Simpsons Lego ( pricey!) Hoping to get some for my Simpsons obsessed twins when they are a little older ( and won't loose it so I can play with it) xxxx
this case has to be talked about by ever awake jw every apostate everyone.
this case because they refuse to hand over documents the court already knows they have because they handed them over before but heavily redacted, is the icing on the cake!
this case shows thier evil plain and simple.
How is it possibly helping to protect children, our most vulnerable members of society, by digging in their heels over a point like this??
The society should bend over backwards to be seen to be co-operative!
Surely by doing so, "a fine witness would be given
Can I post this on reddit? These guys are gonna see a sudden surge in sales!
We have our anthem! Oh yeah!!!!
i was a 4th gen born in.my adult children were the 5th.
my mother was one of the newly'anointed' we have all left.
i have been lurking since october.i was really too terrified someone would find out who i was and what would happen.well we are out now so here is a part of my story.
Incredible. I can't imagine the awful things you've suffered if even your anointed ( I assume elderly) mother left too. Revoke your " implied invitation"?!!! As I'm sure you are now aware that is purely a legal, not theocratic, term....used for such incidents as visitors who vandalize, steal from or are violent/ abusive toward congregants...not used against long term Christian families whose children have been sexually abused!!!
Its funny how keeping the congregation " clean" is invoked to maintain image rarther than protect children!! Why is that? To my mind the maini reason is that the society, unlike Christ, cares only for adult males...and the individual is worth less than nothing, cult leaders are everything. Even happening to committed famallies like yourselves.
I am so sorry your poor daughter had to go through this...but so very glad you have remained united as a family. Welcome😀
i didn't recall this topic being discussed for quite a while, so i am including the first half of an article i posted on another site: , .
who ‘wondered admiringly’ at the league of nations to fulfill revelation 17:8?.
summary: the watchtower explains that the initial beast of revelation 17:8 is the “league of nations.” revelation 17:8 (nwt) says that persons whose names have not been written upon the scroll of life will “wonder admiringly” at this beast.
Changing the OP, but out of interest.....
but their names have not been written upon the scroll of life from the founding of the world. [NWT Reference Edition]
Now if that's not predestination I don't know what is.
two years ago i had a kundalini experience.
i felt energy or chi pulsate through each of my chakras, from the base of the spine to the crown of the head, then back, after that i felt like a newborn for three days.
i felt like i was reborn spiritually and god gave me a new name - indi.
Sure you don't mean KUNILINGUS experience?
i heard this tired line re-ran again at this year's convention.
satan supposedly wanted to be like god and be worshiped - you know, the whole pride thing.
they really made a big deal about how his "thoughts" led to his sin in the garden of eden and how we need to control our thoughts to avoid the same result.
There's only one ego- maniac that wants to be worshipped.....which is kinda weird if you are " perfect"
i say no.. although the tetragrammaton appears close to 7000 times in the hebrew scriptures, the personal name of god does not.
seems to me that god made sure that both that his personal name does not appear therein and that no one would ever actually know it or learn even how to pronounce it.
he also made sure that his name (baring 3 hallelujahs in revelation) did not appear in the new testament.
Terry The idea of "giving" to God is perhaps the most peculiar of all human ideas. God needs nothing and can make no use of something burned on an altar. The fable spinners, however, like to assure us God's nostrils can be pleased by the aroma of burnt oxen. The Physics of molecules and the distance from Earth to Heaven was much more (ignorant) simple in the old days.
The whole concept of blood sacrifice , the " sweet savour"(why do I always hear that expression in a Jamaican accent) is more revolting than the " shoot" that the ancient Jews found so terrible. At least a penis is harmless.
i've read many statements on this forum from people who have expressed the sentiment that you don't shove ttatt down the throat of an older person.
it would be too traumatic and its best to let some people, in some situations, simply pass on in the delusion.. its humane.
merciful.. in the initial roar of my awakening, i was unable to cuddle up to that sentiment; preferring, instead, to shove the blood curdling shock of truth down the throat of anyone i could get my grip on... age be dammed.
You' re a good sort, Zoos. You painted a beautiful picture of the scene too....I could see it all in my minds eye. He sounds a marvellous old fella...and it probably makes him feel closer to his son, too, spending time with you.
pulled up something" from the database" ....love it!
I'm a hardbitten atheist and I hope I behave as decently as you if the situation arises.
