jay88 Moses liked to dish out that ironic nugget too...
Numbers 12:3 “Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all men who were on the face of the earth.”
When it comes to self-proclamation whether Moses, the watchtower, or forum members,... I say notice the trend and see where you end up.
may you all have peace!.

So, when my Lord showed me that in order to be "great" with HIM... I needed to be "least" in relation to all others... I understood that. And I learned that, even if others DON'T get it... I get it: it's not a form of mock humility - it is humility - which I learned from a very early age.
=================================================================================
What better way to display humility than to tell someone that you are humble?,.... learn something new everyday.
i was a hair away from telling my wife i never wanted to go to the kingdom hall again after today's watchtower.
the conductor mentioned something along the lines of..."if you think having to shun your disfellowshipped children is bad...you should read up on the israelites.
when one of their children was disobedient to the law, they had to take the before the judges so that they could be stoned to death...and guess who's job it was throw the first stone?".
I was bothered throughout the whole thing myself, until I finally burned out, and just checked out on it all.
What got me started was this statement:
The "slave class" is more interested in cooperating with God's unfolding purpose than in shielding itself from criticism over an adjusted understanding. How do you react when an adjustment in our understanding of the Scriptures is presented?
WTF.

funny how many of the dubs didn't want their names mentioned in the article.
lol.
I guess that leaves one more ponzi scheme to rid themselves of.
you gotta admire the skill manifest in the watchtower's deception skills.
don't kid yourself, even the gestapo, in internal documents found after the war, found the magazines to be well crafted in the field of propaganda.. the latest deceptions?
well, there's the nov. awake magazine with its cover asking, "is belief in a creator reasonable".
All the WT publications follow a rubric: make a general statement, pick everyone else's rubrics apart, fill the torn out places with the WT version, then close with the nearness of the blessings to be gained by "doing Jehovah's will". Oops! Almost left out a part: right after the topic is introduced be sure to dwell on how every objection is motivated by evil forces bent on keeping the reader from learning "The Truth". That's the insurance clause, it keeps a person questioning the motives of anyone who doesn't agree.

Sounds similar to what male lions do, to get the female lion in heat(enabling receptiveness of the male)
jay,
is that not one of the most hellish things performed during the service meetings?.
How often did these resolutions involve a financial commitment?
it's that simple.
i'm sick up to here (guestures to above head), of hearing the dubs trot out their brand name for their imaginary sky friend who is so loving they're petrified he'll murder them soon!!!!!.
the other week i heard a conversation between 2 dubs that ended with the cliche: 'jehovah will sort it out!
I am officially sick of hearing the WBT$'s brand name for god = Jehovah!
A day in the life of a Holy roller,....interesting!
in a 10 month investigation, sunday night infiltrates one of the worlds most worrying new cults.
but most chilling, this cult is australian, spreading and described as worse than waco.
we go inside the cults headquarters to meet the leaders and their followers who claim their lives have been changed forever.. http://au.news.yahoo.com/sunday-night/features/article/-/10276027/inside-australias-chilling-new-cult/.
No matter how much this cult leader activity, upsets or offends another
If the followers are happy, upbeat and are enthusiastic people, only a fool or an ignorant brute would want to take that away from them,.......
One of the first times in my life where I would prefer to see a comb-over, than the natural bald look.
