ours is the privilege to.

plenty to do in this harvest work?1 cor.. 15:58.. .

did russell expect there still to be harvesting today?.

I too wondered if they made it up. If you use situations that was proned to an area then no one would know. Getting robbed in Brazil is like getting robbed in NYC. It happens all the time..(that's what the news will have you believe)

hi i am new here

i had started studying with jw because i was curious about the religion because my bf then(now husband) was a witness.

i am a very open minded person and really had i known what i know now i prob would not have been baptized.

i always had my doubts but i really enjoyed the positive aspects that i was learning at the meetings...i studied with my mom in law.i prob shouldn't have done that because she has taken it very personal that we have stopped and even had the nerve to say i started studying to get in good with the fam!!

Welcome DTL! Im new here myself and have found this a good place to ask questions and just learn by reading prior post.

And why the need for flies? And mosquitos? If you based on you answer on the "Evolution or Design" articles in the Watchtower you will learn that in his great wisdom Jehovah knew that Malaria was necessary to kill millions of unvaccinated people. Not to mention the genius behind bacteria carry flies...

Any weird/funny local needs in your congo?

by XPeterX in

jw
friends

we were told to "be more generous" and that we should stop criticising the elders on how they handle matters.

(the next week a jw got df'd).

STILLINWANTOUT

We had one on large gatherings every other week. Apparently the reasoning was "Bro. so and so was going and hes and elder". Apparently there were Jehovah Witnesses weekend at some hotels that the witnesses started losing control and engaging in loose conduct. Thats the most reoccuring one.

A funny local needs was Gossip. Everyone knew they where talking about Sister Dick.(that is her name). She wasn't in out cong. she was in the other one. One little girl raised her hand and ask why Sis. Dick got a talk just for her.
