  in the june 2004 kingdom ministry, the self-appointed "faithful slave" published this spiritual exhortation as a q&a item - "the congregation book study—why we need it.

  three years later, in 2007 - in the august kingdom ministry - the same "slave" issued this reminder - "how the congregation book study arrangement helps us.

  but surprise, surprise - within a few short months the "slave" decided that jehovah had had a change of heart, and now decided that the book study in homes - with all of its alleged benefits - was superfluous: .

  Without the book study they can have more congregations per Kingdom Hall and sell off the excess halls.

  One thing is certain. At the circuit overseers visit ALL elders, ministerial servants, pioneers and their wives will be at least 1/2 hour early and be on their best behaviour.

  5000 years doesn't work too well with Noah's flood story so they have to alter history

  one of my children got disfellowshipped recently.

  i was worried about that some of my jw friends and jw relatives would mention it to me and it would make for awkward conversation as i am glad that he is out.

  i went to a jw family gathering.

  I went to a jw family gathering. Nothing. Nothing. No mention of even his name

  It is like this person has never existed.

  Stay alive until 2025! Or else.

  In 2026 we never said that. You must have been mistaken.

  Whatever you do don't google circuit overseer cars. You might get directed to an apostate web site.

  Convention invitations

  by dothemath in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so everyone is supposed to get all excited about the invitation work starting tomorrow, according to the announcement from the platform.. maybe this makes sense if you're giving out invitations in the city where the convention is, but what if you're many hours away?.

  a huge part of western canada is scheduled to attend edmonton alberta this july.

  so how does that go over giving out invitations in winnipeg, about a 13 hour drive(that's just driving time).. i know some are actually planning on flying there, so i can't see getting excited about getting the public to make the trek.. i was curious how this is going over in other areas?.

  At the convention they will have an experience on Saturday afternoon interviewing a pioneer from a distant congregation who met someone at the convention that they gave an invitation to. It could be total bs but it stops the rank and file from questioning the invitation work.
