i note that they're making reference to this in the upcoming convention programme.

someone has has dropped a bollock here, have they not?.

i mean, if i were a jw, i'd be sitting thinking of all the promises made and broken.

Are they highlighting it? Do you have any references/links?

That is unbelievable

ALL JW's to be at the meeting this week...

by Newly Enlightened in

.

we asked this person if it could be aqbout the terminology change and they said that was already read last week...... we remember the last time they did this.

got everyone all excited thinking the big "a" was coming and all it was about, was the literature would now be donated instead of charging for it.. .

Has anyone found comfort/encouragement from "worldly songs"?

i remember reading a thread when my exit was starting, about inspirational songs.

someone posted a link to the "shins" for a fool.

this was a surprising help to me.

JWs no longer taking the Governing Body seriously.

the recent letter being us to come to detroit shows that jws are beginning not to take the gb seriously anymore.

the buzz following the meeting was that the letter was unprecedented in its tone.

this coming from long time jws of 30 years plus.

The vast majority of witnesses are completely living in 'chosen ignorance'......they are terrified to break social circles.

I'll never get over how people continue to choose stupidity.

"We have NO idea how many in our congregation were baptized last year."

by NeverKnew in

was i lied to?.

are the members of a congregation even mildly aware of how many people who belong to their very own congregation were recently baptized?

Typical publisher of Jehovah's Witnesses.

Most couldn't tell you who the elders are or the difference between a regular and auxiliary pioneer

I loved Magnum's post above. True words.

The average Jehovah's Witness can't tell you basic theology about the organization. They are so lost and about as deep as a thimble.

For those of us that were kids in the 70's and 80's .....this organization looks vastly different today

Jehovahs Witnesses make a big deal about following first century christianity, so please explain this.

by smiddy in

where in the christian greek scriptures do disciples of christ record how many hours a month they preached.. " " " " 10 hours for women and children and slack husbands with no ambition.

" " " " do they record how many back calls / return visits they made in a month.. " " " " have they set down how many bible studys they had in a month.. " " " " do they have pioneers ,special pioneers , aux.pioneers , with goals to reach each month.. " " " " do they have d.o.

, c.o., zone servants , etc.etc.. " " " " where in the christian greek scriptures is the word " organisation" applied to christianity.

Is there a difference between a "wrong expectation" and a "false prophecy"?

by booker-t in

jw
friends

as many of you posters know by now that my mom has been a devout jw for 40 years and just cannot accept the fact that i am no longer a jw and feel that i am being deceived by apostates and will be destroyed at armaggeddon.

well the other day we had another knock down debate about "false prophecies" and the wts.

my mom insist that the wts are not false prophets but merely had many "wrong expectations" the same as other bible writers and disciples of christ.

daringhart13

The issue isn't 'expectations' or 'prophecies'..........it's why they are commenting on it AT ALL.

The Bible clearly, succinctly, without a shadow of a doubt, says that no man should be concerned with timetables or 'end times.'

So why are they commenting on it at all? Much less for over a century?
