666, or 616?

by ElijahTheThird in

we have all heard all the crap about 666, now does anyone have any conjecture or idea about 616?

i have only heard of one possible conclusion to this so far.

616 is generaly found in the oldest manuscripts.

A (sort of) introduction

by MoodyBlue in

wow, i haven't posted on here in a long time... i lurked, back in the winter of '00, and posted in early '01 a few times.

looking back on those posts, and other stuff written, it amazes me how much can change... i thought to integrate myself into this web community i'd tell some of my story.... i was not raised in the truth.

i fell in love with a jw boy when i was 20 and married him.

HEY MoodyBlue,

Thanks for sharing a little about yourself. It IS a great burden lifted off of my shoulders to admit that I don't have all the answers to all of life's questions. I am getting the sense that you are relieved as well.

No one here has to justify their actions. You were true to yourself and that is what I think God really wants from all of us anyway. So have fun, stick around and I hope to see you in chat again soon.

Can you be Df'ed without a JC?

by BritBoy in

jw
friends

as most of you know, i quietly left the borg and moved countries.

recently i heard from an ex jw back in my former country of residence that she had heard i had been df'ed and it was announced at a meeting... can they do this?

if it is true that is!

Hello Britboy

I can tell you this:
1 I was inactive for about 2 yrs and had moved from Florida to Texas.
2 I joined the US Air Force
3 Shortly after (within a few months) I was told by a friend of mine
that I had been disfellowshipped.
4 I called the congregation and they confirmed.

No JC, No letter, and I had always thought that if they knew of my actions, it would at least merit a statement of disassociation.

I really don't care anymore, but it did happen to me. Would it really surprise anyone if they broke their own rules "for the benefit of the congregation" anyway?

Ana,

At least 3 of these are definitely mine. At the rate I seem to be collecting them though, I'm sure I'll have the rest by the end of next week.

allah!.

they need to put that in thier new world translation!.

and stick it up thier.....whoops!

I was regretting the past and fearing the future. Suddenly, God was speaking. "My name is 'I AM.'" I waited. God continued. "When you live in the past, with its mistakes and regrets, it is hard. I am not there. My name is not 'I Was'. When you live in the future with its problems and fears, it is hard. My name is not 'I Will Be'. When you live in the moment, it is not hard. I am here. My name is 'I AM'".

Need Help FAST!

my son (who's 15) came home from the meeting last night (he thinks he wants to be a witness, but that's in another thread) and said that his grandmother (my mother-in-law) told him my reason for not going to meetings (the un thing, also discussed in another thread).

he told me that i need to talk to the po about it as he had heard about it a while back and has some information.. hmmmm, me thinks the mom-in-law has been talking to the po about what i told her last week.

i'm sure that i will be getting a shepherding call (a drop-by, unscheduled visit) by him this weekend.

Sorry, Spin Doctor, i stil don't buy it. I have seen enough proof on the numerous threads regarding this UN issue to convince me of a few things.

Since before the application by the WBTS in '91 the requirements of supporting the ideals of the UN Charter have been in effect. PROVEN

The occasional literature which shows favorable ideas in regards to the UN just happen to be the ones that were submitted to the UN as a requirement for continued status as DPI.

The annual renewal of the DPI application by the leaders of the WBTS, have had the criteria and the 'wording' of UN support maybe, just maybe, missed once. Not for 10 years.

And the fact that I just can't believe that somehow the wording had been overlooked all those years. It's probably easier to apply for DPI status than it is to get a car loan.

As far as calling it a mistake? Well tell that to ................
(sorry not enough space for that)

Bringing reproach on the WT has nothing at all to do with bringing reproach on "Jehovah's name". The WT has done this to themselves.
