Start planning now for 2014- the 100th anniversary of 1914

by moshe in

it's not too soon to start mentioning that to jw's- let them know that 100 years is a long time and even g-d only made the israelites wander in the wilderness for 40 years, before he brought them to the promised land.

let the doubt begin creeping in and let the jw's know they aren't the only ones with doubts.

i will mention 2014 to jw's from now on- it's a date that the wt hopes the jw's will ignore..

Kneel down before reading the Watchtower

by Mythbuster in

*** w64 9/15 p. 574 experiencing jehovah's love ***.

in contrast to the attitude of these elective elders was that of an elderly couple with whom i stayed on the outskirts of richmond, virginia.

the brother went down to get the mail before breakfast, and when we had breakfast he said, "brother riemer, i got a new watchtower this morning, and do you know the first thing that ma and i do when we get that tower?

We kneel down before we take the wrapper off and ask Jehovah to make us worthy to see what the message is that Jehovah has for us. Now, before we take the wrapper off, will you kneel down and pray with us?" How different that elective elder was from this humble couple who appreciated Jehovah's organization!

Contradicting ideas about Satan and governing ourselves

by PYRAMIDSCHEME in

while listening to the special talk on sunday the speaker made a statement about something we have all heard a million times: satan is in control of this system and its governments and is the cause of mankind's ills.

but the statement made me think.

we all were taught that we are, during this time of the end, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that man is not capable of guiding his own step, in other words we need god.

And, he cheats!

(Genesis 11:5-9) 5 And Jehovah proceeded to go down to see the city and the tower that the sons of men had built. 6 After that Jehovah said: "Look! They are one people and there is one language for them all, and this is what they start to do. Why, now there is nothing that they may have in mind to do that will be unattainable for them. 7 Come now! Let us go down and there confuse their language that they may not listen to one another's language." 8 Accordingly Jehovah scattered them from there over all the surface of the earth, and they gradually left off building the city. 9 That is why its name was called Ba′bel, because there Jehovah had confused the language of all the earth, and Jehovah had scattered them from there over all the surface of the earth.

Economy forces B.C. town to re-examine tax breaks for churches

by Mythbuster in

interesting comment about jws.. http://www.edmontonjournal.com/life/economy+forces+town+examine+breaks+churches/2913971/story.html.

providing spiritual guidance may not be enough to warrant exemption.

should churches and religious organizations continue to receive automatic tax exemptions?.

Mythbuster

If they gave something back to the community, I might be more sympathetic.
