Tech49: Mini RC 2014 Review

i attended the regional convention (district convention) over the last weekend, and thought i would spend a few minutes putting down some thoughts, for your amusement.

i will bounce around a bit, as my notes and thoughts were a little craaaaazy.. we met at one of the smaller venues on the west coast, with attendance around 7,000.

(28 baptized.... <.04%) we were tied in to the international convention in arlington, tx.. my first thought, only about 2 hours in, was how much this sounded like a plain old sales meeting!

I think that the talk given by Rutherford, " millions now living will never die" will be eventually be downplayed by the fact that Rutherford may not even be part of the Faithful & Discreet Slave Class.

I never heard Loesch sprak, but I heard that it must be brutal. It reminds of a older German brother in a past congregation. Man. was he ever proud. He constantly bragged about German bldg's, german cars, german sour kraut, and sausages. I often why he never thought to board a German airplane and return back there.

Yes you will inherit a Land flowing with Milk & Honey, but did i forget to mention about Leprosy?

by Quarterback in

this week's bible highlights, as well as last week indicated that the promise land wasn't so fortunate as thought.

this week it mentions premature balding.

if you were balding prematurely, you had to see the priests.

Well, Island Man, in respects to cleaniliness. they were advanced. Some of their dietary standards were superior. There were some modern commentators that have praised them for these things. But, aside from the miracles that Elijah, Jesus, and others performed, medical science didn't come until the world's great thinkers came. Maybe some great thinkers existed way back then, but there are no archaelogical records to provve that. Just the Egyptians who were great in preserving thir dead.

Apparently, early balding was a sign of Leprosy

This week's Bible Highlights, as well as last week indicated that the Promise land wasn't so fortunate as thought. This week it mentions premature balding. If you were balding prematurely, you had to see the priests. Not that they would heal you. It was to add further misery to you and declare you unclean. Sucks to be you.

Stupid paragraph in this weekends wt study

by stuckinarut2 in

how's these comments in this weeks study?.

i understood that i had neglected my children when they most needed my guidance and affection, admits eduardo.

i had not been there to read them bible stories, to pray with them, to cuddle them, and to play with them.

This article has been on the back burner for 50 years. I grew up in a large city that invited immigrants and financed them. Some were illegal immigrants. A large amount of Bible Studies were due to illegal immigrants. They were invited into our congregations but, becuase they were illegal, didn't qualify for duties. This article doesn't memtion illegals, but the message is there.

Great job, Agonus. I abused alchohol when I was a teenager, due to the influence of some family members. But, as I got more mature I realized that I didn't need that to feel good. Keep up the good work

Internet Dating - I feel like I am being love bombed again

by KateWild in

i am on three or four sites and lots of guys are showing an interest and trying to be genuine.

it reminds me of being love bombed by the jws.

i am having so much fun and loving all the attention, i almost got carried away with it all, until i got a pm on jwn.. i have just been absorbing it all and it dawned on me i am still vulnerable, and possibly not ready to date.

Quarterback

Hope you find someone that respects you, and cares for you, and is genuine. I do not hold much confidence for dating sites, though.
