his hand has plasters and his skin doesn’t look healthy, like he has inflammation or something serious going on.. he had put on weight and is all bloated and puffy .

his skin really doesn’t look good, the kind of inflammation many people notice after the experimental covid vaccines.. there have been very high numbers of people reported inflammation after the experimental covid vaccines.

Living a dishonest life takes its toll. At this level these guys must know the whole religion is a sham so he might actually have a small little bit of conscience that comes up once in a while and he has to push it back down and that takes a mental toll on a person. Living the lie

I’m not sure what this means!

by NeedsProof in

yesterday i was visited by 2 witnesses, and we had a long chat about lots of things!

one of them named claire took the lead and i instantly felt some sort of connection to her, after we had spoken and they had left i started to have this overwhelming feeling to research her and what she had spoken about but i couldn’t find her anywhere on any website or social media, so i left it and thought nothing more of it all day….

however the strange thing is i had a dream that night and claire was in it, many things happened in this dream that i was told i was only allowed to speak about with claire, i can speak of the dream to others but the details only me and claire can know!

Or it’s a regular poster who started a new account so as to avoid stigma.

Food at the Proper Time

by Alpaca in

jw
friends

ya' know....as i listen to the great music of my youth from the 60s & 70s ... i've reached the inescapable conclusion that the "food at the proper time" came from simon & garfunkel, the grateful dead, jimi hendrix, led zeppelin, pete seeger, bob dylan, hot tuna, steve winwood and hundreds of other incredible musical philosophers!!!

i can honestly say that my life has been enriched.. i am barreling toward 70 years on this planet and i still get goose bumps listening to the music & lyrics that perfectly capture life's eternal truths.

at that time in my life i had "one foot in the world" spent a lot of time listening to that classic music with "worldly" friends who were there for me when i finally walked out of the fog of dubdom in the late 1990's.

I grew up on a lot of that same music. Many well written songs are timeless

There are some things that just can’t be explained.

I was raised a staunch jw and had a spiritual experience that did not align with jw beliefs that involved a death of a family member. I only talk about it with non jws seeking an explanation.

You couldn’t find Claire on social media because Uber jws don’t use Facebook and some people just don’t use it for privacy concerns. She may never come back to your door unless you have made arrangement for a return visit.

I’ve had dreams like the one you described. They are so real and sometimes they actually mean something but it may take years for you to fully understand the meaning.

Thought on “0 hours” reporting

by FFGhost in

so everyone knows the “big news” of this past weekend, no more reporting of hours, placements, return visits, etc.

beginning november 1, jws just tick a box indicating whether they “shared in any form of the ministry during the month”.. so there was a brief comment by a redditor that seems like a brief joke “throwaway comment” but after thinking about it….why not?.

the idea is, what is “any form of the ministry”?

“Growth = God’s Blessing”.

The more publishers, the more they can say they’re blessed

They will be ble$$ed. On assembly days when they count the number of publishers x $11.00 per publisher and tell us our circuit has incurred a deficit of $5,264.39 and the contribution boxes are conveniently located at the exits but we’d prefer you donate directly to jw.borg as we really need the money now and it reduces the chance of any pilfering by the local elders.

I think circuit overseers should have a job like the apostle Paul

by forzaitalia in

am i being mean, thinking that travelling overseers should get a part-time job like paul did, in order to not be a burden to the congregation?

i wouldn't put my hand up when we were asked to raise it if we were happy to give £50 from congregation funds to the c.o.

so that he could take his wife out for a meal.

Who was the purchaser of the tents that he apostle Paul made to support his ministry ?

No more REPORTING field service!!!!!!!!!

by BoogerMan in

this is going to break the hearts of a lot of uber-jw's!

reddit has now removed the video link of samuel herd telling jw's they will no longer have to report time or placements - just tick a box which says "active.".

Don't they require individual online donations now via a personal login and electronic debit? Doesn't this constitute "monitoring and keeping track of someone's donation?

Persnickety.......BINGO..... we have a winner! lol. It is all about the $$$$$ SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!!

"Don't they require individual online donations now via a personal login and electronic debit? Doesn't this constitute "monitoring and keeping track of someone's donation?"

My mom a JW since 1936..always told me: " Hun, ...Always... donate by check..cause you can write it off...and at least one MS and an Elder or Two have to notice you keep their lights on". lol.

This^^^^^^

At the assembly day they recommend on line donating with your credit card. A practice they formerly condemned false religion for. Yes, they will take your cash or check donation but electronic donations are preferred.

This answers the question if the organization was going to go more Hardline or mainstream.

by nowwhat? in

looks like we can expect a kinder, gentler jehovah and jesus during the great tribulation.

the door will not be closed to all non jws at the start of the tribulation.

but will have time to repent after false religion is destroyed.

hoser

Vidiot:

maybe. It will show how few jws actually give a shit about the ministry.

My observation the last 10 years is that most are just putting in time(wasting)

The last few times I went door to door for a 3 hour reporting period maybe 3 doors were knocked on and my Mrs and the other guys wife talked about what brand of white rum tasted the best with Coca Cola.

Tim hortons and personal errands is what field service has become. No one cares
