That is really amazing.....so profound!
Thanks Antioch!!
how would the watchtower of july 15th read if the watchtower was written in 1st person from the ones allegedly preparing an dispensing spiritual food (ie the watchtower)?
why is it written by a faceless 3rd person telling readers what to think about the people who are allegedly dispensing the very material i'm reading?
i was reading the july 15th article and laughed at the ridiculousness of it all.. .
That is really amazing.....so profound!
Thanks Antioch!!
i recently became aware of the new light.
please correct me if i'm wrong, but doesn't this new light concerning 1914 means that the wt have been preaching the wrong doctrine for decades?
.
LOL!!! Yes it does.
Now....if they were truly God's "only true organization".......why isn't there a MASSIVE campaign to go back and tell millions of people....yes every single precious soul......that they were wrong and they now have new information?
Don't hurt your head considering this basic question.....they are a cult. Start there.
here is the text of the letter:.

Don't count on it
Elders are inherently lazy.
It will never happen
so awhile back, during our last circuit overseer visit, vic and i decided to bite the bullet.... there seemed to be very little support for the mid-week lunch plans for the co and his wife, so we signed up to host.
we definitely didnt want it to be awkward, so we invited a few others along, as a nice little group affair.
they were excited, and offered to do the cooking, so i said i would play along.. just some background.... this particular co is kind of a tool (big surprise right?
This sounds a lot like Roger Triplett
during our engagement, we fooled around and touch each other down there.
it's not a "tap" but definitely is not "stimulation".
i tried to convince my wife, who, after 5 years of marriage, strangely felt guilty all the sudden, that its not do called porneia.
How long has it been????
Before you do ANYTHING.....look at the October 1972 Kingdom Ministry Question Box.
As a former long time elder, I can tell you this is the 'get out of jail free' card....
In the late 2000's they were sending CO's around with this reference.....and I'd already used it several times the prior decade.....
Read it with your wife.................do NOT go to the elders...with ANYTHING
here are some highlights from the magazine.
the first article, "imitate the faith of moses", teaches how moses didn't remain in pharohs court, they then skillfully spin getting a decent paying job and career as equaling "enjoyment of sin", and how those who have "enjoyment of sin" will die at armageddon with everyone else who enjoys their job.
here are some quotes from the article.... "when tempted to engage in sinful conduct, ask, what future do i want for myself?....
She should talk to Witnesses from the 1940s through 1990s.........she won't be so 'happy'
they were a hoot weren't they?.
Oh yeah.....I was there......every Sunday night.
Otherwise you would never meet a girl. LOL.
a friend of mine recently had his co visit and in the elders meeting the co out-right asked the question: how are the friends doing in your cong.
as regards pursuing higher education?
the co continued...you know in view of all the counsel from the slave regarding the dangers.
Higher education.....in fact, ANY education....is the most damaging thing to Jehovah's Witnesses.
Once the mind opens up.... it is flooded with common sense that is often difficult to dismiss.
do you think you would be just going thru the motions?
would you be an elder, ms, or pioneer?.
i think there are many that stay in the religion simply because of family/friends considerations.
The very definition of misery.
I would likely still be getting used and abused weekly..... daydreaming about a paradise earth.
i thought the kingdom ministry feb 2014 had a couple interesting things in it:.
1. a short talk encouraging the jw sales force to publicize the jw.org website at every opportunity.. 2. do not put out bibles on your table displays keep them hidden underneath.
i thought they were so p-p-p-p-proud of their new nwt??.
Remember when the Internet was from Satan..............now its an asset?
LOL......and millions won't even blink an eye........just keep drooling at meetings.
