  When I was a little girl I had all the answers!

  by Hortenzie in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  when i was little ... i thought that when people die they lie in their coffins and think about all the nice things they experienced during their lives.

  therefore, creating pleasant memories should be the main purpose in life.

  as well as being happy and making other people happy should be.

  What is the Biblical Support for Observers at the Memorial ???

  by RubaDub in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have never gotten a good answer for this questions from any other jw's other than "everyone was of the annointed back in the first century" or "we are showing our respect for the arrangement" or some other nondescript comment.. even the notion that we "celebrate" the memorial is not accurate since the "celebration" part is limited to 8 or 9 thousand people and the 15 million or so that attend are merely observing or watching.. is there some other biblical support for people to observe the celebration ???

  in all my life as a jw, i still don't quite understand the significance of it from a biblical persective.. rub a dub .

  CO talk: "Jehovah's Witnesses killed Jesus"

  by sd-7 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  mentioned in his talk last week that the jews, who had the name "jehovah's witnesses" applied to them, killed jesus.

  i found that a particularly revealing admission, simply from the way he said it.

  "jehovah's witnesses killed jesus," he said.. he went on to explain that the coveted title of "jehovah's witnesses" was taken from the jews.

  Borg court: 1st session

  by sd-7 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  record of committee meeting #1. after prayer, proverbs 28:13 was read: "he who is covering over his transgressions will not succeed, but he who is confessing and leaving them will be shown mercy.

  " the need to confess to jehovah was emphasized.

  as jehovah's representatives, the elders said we therefore needed to confess to them.
