a couple of paradise earth questions: .
1) if you are a married, baptized witness couple (both people being baptized) and armageddon arrives, will the couple still be married on paradise earthtm?
2) if you are married to an unbelieving mate (ubm) and armageddon arrives, will the witness be free to remarry on paradise earth?.
*** w56 10/1 p. 604 par. 23 ‘He That Marries Not Does Better’ ***
Aside from marriage privileges, the “other sheep” surviving the battle of Armageddon will have untold privileges of service opened up to them by the resurrection of the dead, and these privileges will continue even after the purpose of marriage has been fulfilled and childbearing on earth ceases and husbands are relieved of the obligation to give their wives children.—Acts 24:15.
This sounds like Fred Franz's way of thinking
as seen in recent posts, beginning later this year appointments and deletions of elders and ms will only happen through the circuit overseer.
this means that individual congregations and elders have no say anymore.
if the gb want only certain people in or out, they tell the co and he makes it happen.
Thanks for the link Obbiette, it states that these are the flaws of establishing plausible liability
The doctrine has six major flaws:
yes, you read correctly..... all appointed men have been told in a new letter that they have to pioneer to "set the lead" whenever there is a "special" campaign month.
they use some scripture saying that these ones have to show by example.... so for any of us who are appointed and have learned ttatt, it is going to be very hard to fade during this time!.

Haven't the figures shown that the dubs are putting more hours into witnessing per head than ever before? If they can't get the percentage of new recruits up higher then at least they can say that the witnessing work is increasing by a staggering percentage and it is proof that the important work is advancing ahead at a greater pace than any other time in their history, proof that the end is near. Basically, a new stategy in keeping the momentum going full steam ahead since they know they can't predict dates anymore.
given that magic is from satan, this is what we learned from the horrible story about the little boy and sparlock the warrior wizard.
i am curious to know if witness kids are allowed to see the movie frozen.
i am not a big disney fan, but this movie was wonderful.
The Sparlock video has it's own magic happening in it. The plane which has a man flying it lands to earth as a toy.
ok, so as most know, this is the weekend of the "special talk" .... if anyone is going to the k hall, please shaer your thoughts on what makes is "so special".... i bet it will be more recycled same same.... "god loves you, he hates violence, he hates bad things happening to good people, he wants you all to be jw memebers...or he will kill you all at the big loving armageddon!!!!!!!
!.

I knew I made a mistake clicking on this thread, some people are so gullible.
I wonder if we'll be seeing the GB's wives?

Could someone remind me, what is there warped reasoning in classifying a talk as being special?
Now that you mention it, females are often called to the stage to give their experiences. Of course it's a form of preaching to the congregation but the org. just ignores this for the sake of having a heart warming, tear jerking, ear ticklying story being told.
my mother is visiting us again tomorrow, only 5 weeks since her last visit.
things seem to be going pretty well with her, and the kids are enjoying having grandma back in our routine.
she is retiring at the end of may (age 65), so she promises that this is going to mean more time with family.
You are such a loving daughter faithful witness, it's great that you are in a position to be able to help her, it has been well worth the study you've put in.
"My brother in law is an MS (new development), and says that the local congregations are trying to stake claims for the better parking structures" They really are no better than anyone else but I would think the elders themselves are behind this display of greediness.
