  which book says it?

  by sowhatnow in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  my mom seems to railroad me into a debate at least once a week.. anyway long story short,.

  she says 'there is no where in the literture that the wt writers claimed that a specfic year it was going to be armageddon.. well i thought there was, and id like to print it or show it to her, i have some older books but not many.. so, is there?

  i told her that the wt claimed that 1975 was going to be the end, she said no, they said that was the beginning of the tribulation.. wow, she forgot about the most recent article ablout that already!.

  If your mother thaught and still thinks that the GT started in 1975 I'd give up talking to her about anything related to JWs.

  This weeks service meeting! More craziness.....

  by stuckinarut2 in

  so this weeks service meeting is so full of "crazy".

  a whole 15 min part devoted to trying to indoctrinate everyone on how to "explain our beliefs on 1914".

  then another 15 min part called "a tool to help us explain our beliefs about 1914".

  The crazy thing is that 1914 no longer has any relevance. With the old teaching of 'this generation' it defined a point in time in which the big A would occur. Now with the overlapping generations they have been very obscure with any real time period.

  Man grant divorce from wife who refused sex

  by usualusername in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a court in dubai has granted a divorce to a man who says his wife is possessed by spirits and refuses to have sex with him, reports suggest.. after persistently denying him sex, the woman finally told her husband to discuss the issue with her parents, the gulf news daily reports, without naming the couple.. they told the man that his wife was, in fact, possessed by a jinn, and that several religious scholars had unsuccessfully tried to exorcise the spirit, the paper says.. upon hearing this, the husband lodged a divorce case with the dubai sharia court.

  his lawyer told a hearing: "the woman and her family cheated my client.

  they should have been honest and clear about the fact that the wife was possessed by a jinn.

  It's pretty bad when you have courts making decisions based on things that aren't real.

  I had to laugh at this comment found in a news article regarding the convention

  "I got asked for some directions by some American JWs yesterday, I started explaining and saw their faces, completely lost, user speedyleedy wrote."

  They don't know how close to the truth they really were.

  Thanks for the corrections Ann O and I apologize for the mistakes.

  Not only do the Brothers in the territory have to worry about treating the GB members to a level they expect but they need to be concerned that they will gossip about them (to their own friends) behind their backs.

  It's so easy to explain that they needed to prepare a pre recorded explanation.
