  Anyone got the December KM yet for UK

  by alanv in

  as it is the end of the jw service year, it would be nice to see how they finished up in august 2010 as regards total publishers.. quite often there seems to be a big push to get as many as possable to put in a service report to finish the year off.. so a scan would be good or just a report on how many publishers they ended up with.

  thanks.

  Yoga

  by letsslatejws in

  why was there such a fuss about not doing yoga?.

  i did my first yoga class today and whilst you are encouraged to not think about your days worries, you can hardly consider this vacating your mind, so as to let satan in!

  it was more about holding stretching limbs and simply holding poses (such as holding your leg out straight etc).

  We have been doing yoga for over a 1.5 years...did some research on the different types of Yoga and found that you can practice Yoga without it being a 'Spiritual' (demonic) one according to Jw beliefs.

  • Started to think for myself, doing my own research on everything that I thought I knew or was told to know...and WOW...so many things come to .

  Next time I go out in FS I will use this as my topic... and then say 'just kidding'

  ---

  *** rs p. 97 pars. 2-3 Dates ***. As shown under the heading "Last Days," those events have been clearly in evidence since 1914. Before the last members of the generation that was alive in 1914 will have passed off the scene, all the things foretold will occur, including the "great tribulation" in which the present wicked world will end.—Matt. 24:21, 22, 34

  .When will the end of this wicked world come?Jesus answered: "Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father." However, he also stated: "Truly I say to you that this generation [that was alive when "the sign" of "the last days" began its fulfillment] will by no means pass away until all these things occur."—Matt. 24:36, 34.

  by dothemath in

  last meeting there was a lot of emphasis on singing......even giving out the songs for the upcoming ca so we.

  could practice.

  and of course they emphasized how we should be present for songs, etc.

  "The music aids in the mind control process. If I am not mistaken all the songs are ballads no marches.

  Yep--That sums it all up...For me

  has this been on the site before? about there never having claimed to be a prophet?

  by booby in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  *** w72 4/1 p. 200 they shall know that a prophet was among them' ***.

  yes, the time must come shortly that the nations will have to know that really a "prophet" of jehovah was among them.

  actually now more than a million and a half persons are helping that collective or composite "prophet" in his preaching work and well over that number of others are studying the bible with the "prophet" group and its companions..

  How I know JW's have the truth

  by Honesty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  jehovah's witnesses are the true christian congregation.. i know they are because they tell the truth and their core doctrines have not ever changed:.

  "jehovah is the grand identifier of his true messengers.

  he identifies them by making the messages he delivers through them come true.

  Thanks Honesty...Interestingly in that May 1, 1997 --- Questions to consider at the end were...

  • Can You Explain?
    1) How does Jehovah identify his true messengers?

  • Answer

  "He identifies them by making the messages he delivers through them come true. Jehovah is also the Great Exposer of false messengers."

  How many have come true for us through the GB?

  (Study Questions)

  • How does Jehovah identify the right kind of messengers, and how does he expose the false?

  • Answer

  BY their words coming true!!!

  • Do we see a pattern here? (I'm just saying)

  It's OK Lurkers, Paranoid former JW's, and even you current JW's....

  by AllTimeJeff in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it's ok.... to post here on the internet, on jwn, and other jw related forums.. first of all, as we all know, the governing body doesn't provide a forum for jw's to "associate" with their brothers and sisters.

  i'm just guessing, and i could be wrong, that its harder to control the flock when they have free access to information and each other.

  damn electricity and the technology it brings..... anyway, i realize that for anyone leaving, or for practicing jw's, to post is a nervous thing.

  Ep...I find this site enjoyable...anytime people are made aware of the 'real truth' and then able to make corrections in their lives and share those with others...well it brings real JOY to me, as I am sure to many others.

  • I am grateful for this site and several others!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH

  WT Leaders Slander Former Members

  by compound complex in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  perhaps nothing better illustrates the lack of a chrisitian spirit within the leadership of the watch tower society, than their slander and vilification of former members.

  a christian spirit would mandate prayer for and wishing such ones well, even if their sin were authentic and well documented, encouraging such ones to repent and accept the teachings of jesus christ.

  where is the verse in scripture that encourages hatred for a person who merely resigns his membership in an organization?
