  Female Angels

  for some reason i never noticed this before: .

  5 then the angel who talked with me came forward and said to me, “look up and see what this is that is coming out.” 6 i said, “what is it?” he said, “this is a basket[b] coming out.” and he said, “this is their iniquity[c] in all the land.” 7 then a leaden cover was lifted, and there was a woman sitting in the basket!

  [d] 8 and he said, “this is wickedness.” so he thrust her back into the basket,[e] and pressed the leaden weight down on its mouth.

  Wow, very interesting.....

  It's funny that (non JW) western kids certainly imagine angels to be female (until they're told otherwise)

  Pete It would seem obvious to pasters in most other churches that their role is to offer comfort and support. In the JWs and some others they take on the role of detectives and prosecutors.

  Exactly. There's very little sensitivity & loving guidance and too much punishment and cruelty - especially when dealing with teens and young adults.

  Blues Also the Shepherd book/elder expectations have changed, mostly due to external pressure. In the very recent past elders where doing things such as forcing rape victims to listen to recordings of their assault - with absolutely no censure from the Borg.

  Samcats When I told him we didn't need that kind of information it stopped. Other than that I never had observed any impropriety while on a committee in regard to details about sexual misconduct

  But samcats Why do you think he went into such detail? I'd guess because that was his expectation, either from previous experience or being told that of others. Perhaps your presence prevented intrusive questions, but despite many decent elders like yourself the overwhelming experience of most people has been the opposite.

  DerekM Sometimes I'll call up one of Wally's or someone else's video that I might not otherwise watch and just let it run muted on my laptop while I'm showering or whatever

  Me too. I also let ads run to the end, but I don't know if it helps?

  Seeing Lloyds "speed networking" project made me think - because we know Lloyd never does anything without "Lloyd" in mind - he was looking for free young 'talent' (that kind too, no doubt). Since EXJWs have had a heads up now about him taking advantage of volunteers, he was hoping to find local Croatian's to work for 'the channel' for free, ostensibly to 'help cult victims' and their resume/CV.

  his cover for "how to leave JWs" is also bad, even though I know some exJW just made it up for him. A professional would have taken a hard pass and done it properly.

  i think the graphics are an option with the Amazon print because ive seen quite a few other self published books in exactly the same style - same colourway and artwork style?

  I also think its going to be hard for him to write another book without straying into serious slander territory, Because we know he wont have any other subject on his mind - or even material to call on -- than his own personal "Nakba" (as he sees it!)

  hello my friends,.

  here are some encouraging scriptures for the day:.

  revelation 21:2 i also saw the holy city, new jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from god and prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.. hebrews 11:10 for he (abraham) was awaiting the city having real foundations, whose designer and builder is god.. revelation 21:24 and the nations will walk by means of its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it.. revelation 22:1 and he showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, flowing out from the throne of god and of the lamb 2 down the middle of its main street (of the holy city).
