so there are roughly 12,000 "annointed" here on earth right now.
even though they are christ's brothers and the new testament was written just for them, they have no say on how "jehovah's organazation" is run and the the things taught.
makes sense to me!!!
The latest from the Gooberning Bawdy is that only them, the 8 that are part of this Gooberning Bawdy, are the ones in charge of dispensing spiritual food and that the other anointed plus the ones who aren't a total of 7 million JWs are the domestics who take in of the spiritual food provided.
Anything else is "old light".
i suppose part of the fascination i have with this board is, the exotic nature of those making up the member population.
i say exotic because, as you yourselves will agree with, folks such as yourselves don't hang around the christian congregation for long upon making the decision that truth is not for you.
(rom 1:25) this "fading" thing spoken of here likely plays a role into why christians such as me find the average ex-jw to be a bit fascinating.
why feed the troll?
Hey I just noticed this is my post #333
that must make it, like what, half evil!
One of the big issues from Bethel living was the restriction on unapproved music albums.
Does the music you enjoy really say whether you're a spiritual person or not?
Did Jesus listen to middle eastern belly dancing music or did he condemn it?
I dunno, what does the fox say?
Talking to a JW about Jesus crucifixion and resurrection goes pretty much the same way.
Ring-ah-ding-ah-ring-ah-ding-ding
What's the GeeBee say 'bout that?
Nathan Knorr had issues about men's penises, he'd go on ranting about masturbation and not touching one's willey while going pee, and certainly not looking sideways if you were at the urinals, that could lead to homosexual ideas. Also he was very insensitive of other's views, feelings and knowledge.
In CoC you can find out how Knorr treated Ed Dunlap (Gilead Instructor) very badly when Ed had a nerve problem in the face and side of his head that was quite painful, Knorr transferred him to work in the printery which acerbated the pains.
so this is the situation..........haven't been to meeting for the past 10 months....misssed dc as well as 2 day assemblies.. i have woken up to the fact that the watchtower is not god's organization so their is absolutely no way iam going.
to give the elders any of my time.
i have no desire to agree to a sherherding call!.
Tell them you aren't interested in their uninvited visits.
As a matter of fact you think they're stalking you and you're going to seek legal counsel and put a restraining order against them.
If they dare do any judicial action concerning this you and your lawyer are going to view it as retribution against saying NO to their uninvited and unwanted advances.
If they even contact you one more time you're going to have your lawyer write Bethel and tell them to rein in their appointed men who are stalking and harassing you or else you'll include them in your lawsuit against them.
it has been now verified that there was a traitor within the gb!.
an insider had the courage and audacity to verify this, taking the risk of being kicked out of bethel, with a cross carved on his forehead.. it became apparent that all the men of the gb where naturally bald, even when some tried to hide it with a clever and stylistic comb-over.
but there was some suspicion that pierce and losch were not true bald men.
braincleaned you asked what kind of a-hole?
Well you can start with a kissing introduction to my puckery round one down back.
Kiss, kiss, my braincleaned bigot.
I don't like stinking jokes about accents!
I have an accent and I'm proud of it.
Haters of accents are ignorant of their own accents!
Bunch of stinking not-funny haters!
