i knew it could happen one day...yet i was so careful..... sitting at the sound cabinet, i had our awesome forum open on my tablet, and didn't see the microphone brother looking over at me...... he wandered over and asked me "whats that site?".
i quickly responded "oh, i googled to get to our jw.org site, and this must have popped up" while quickly closing it.... he didn't look too fussed, but my heart was beating..... he is pretty chilled out and certainly not an "uber-dub"...but this was a wake up call to be more careful...i am fading fast, but don't want anymore attention from the nazi-elders while doing so!.
be careful all!
I doubt he would even consider it was an 'apostate' site. It sounds like he didn't think you were on the JW org site or had it open to any of the publications. If anything he may be a bit concerned that you are not concentrating on the meeting and at worst your current duties may be changed.
LISTEN obey and be blessed.
i recently shared my views on how to witness to jehovah's witnesses to a local congregation.
the video link is also below:.
maybe this will help some reach out to loved ones that are still members.. .
this weeks service meeting part (week starting march 23, 2015) in the our kingdom ministry under the heading meetings for field service that accomplish.
their purpose includes a little sub-article entitled when a sister must conduct.
the direct link is: http://www.jw.org/en/publications/kingdom-ministry/ click the little document download button under the one labeled km15 03-e us and then choose a format (pdf looks best)..
the watchtower 'masturbation' video has caused quit a fuss and imo rightly so.
let me relate an experience that took place almost 40 years ago, in the 1970's.. i was translating for several families who attended our hall from outside the territory.
the reason they came to our congregation is that i was the only one in the area willing to exert myself to learn the american sign language.
can anyone confirm they seem to be having disagreement writing dept and service dept some feel that df ok as long as you do not add wholesale across the board shunning regardless of the sin ..
is good calling me back or am i just letting my emotions get the best of me?also i really want to be closer to my jw family.
btw i was never baptized and i consider myself a born again christian i go to a baptist church and wath televangelist and i have expirenced gods presence like never before but sometimes i get fearful and think "what if jws are right and i'm wrong" than i'm screwed!but if there wrong and i'm right it doesn't look to good for them.. i would prefer if nobody posted "god isn't real" type comments.
i truly believe he is real but i respect why some are atheists..
Neither religion is right, that is evident by the changes they need to continually make and by the damage that their direct damage that their religion causes.
Is one more right than another? Who knows but why would God judge us because we chose one religion over another based on this or that teaching being right or wrong?
He knows what's in our hearts and how knows our sincerity and desire to draw close to him, we don't need a religion to do that but a little encouragement from others always helps.
One thing that is not right with the JW religion is that in order to be a JW (as opposed to one of Christ's followers) is that you have accept all of their teachings regardless of how wrong they are. You are not free to go with your own conscience and understanding on bible beliefs.
so i was lurking on jwtalk after trying to read the thread on there about the broadcast about the conti case...and holy moly there are some bat ish crazy talk on that site!
they also blocked the thread about the broadcast, lol!
they are scuuuuured (scared).
new posters for each new magazine edition.
someone is going to make some moola.. http://kingdomprintsllc.org/products/literature-cart-poster-print-2-separate-prints-march-watchtower-and-awake-2015.

From the website is this statement
Kingdom Prints was formed out of a desire to assist Jehovah's people in our preaching work by providing Public Witnessing Artwork and supplies. After serving at Bethel in Brooklyn from 1999 - 2013 this seemed a practical way to continue serving, while covering my material needs. In early 2014 many brothers lost access to affordable displays. I've heard of some paying $30 to $80 per display from local printing and office supply stores. Our goal is to provide high quality at a fair price until Jehovah makes other arrangements
Seems that the WTBTS which prides itself in being a large printing establishment can't manage to keep up with the chariot.

i apologize if this has already been addressed.. i'm just having a look over at jw talk and came across a very interesting thread talking about the terms used within the organization, it is a real eye opener.
for instance, they no longer use the term society because to non believers it looks too cultish and implies that they may be secretive.
funny thing is that reading the whole thread makes them look so cultish and shows their secretive behaviour because the keep being told by the higher ups that there are more changes to come.

I don't think there are enough brothers for them to select from who are anointed. They have much better pickings if they can include the other sheep.
Another possibility is that all who claim they are anointed are now born after 1935. It was after that year that an individual would have to declare that they were personally chosen. The GB members know it is all nonsense and have to be very careful who they pick.
