  sorry if i sound like satan: 'is it really so?

  ' but then i am a mentally diseased apostate).. 1. are the gb really tightening their grip or is it just the same as it ever was........but..........we just notice the propaganda more now we're out?.

  Cult...Cult...Cult...Cult!

  by Cold Steel in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it seems that many people on this board get a certain amount of glee calling the jehovah's witness faith a "cult.

  " especially former jehovah's witnesses.

  and though it's true in a number of senses, we must be conscious of the fact that the early christians were considered by nearly everyone in roman and jewish society as a cult.

  "Charitable Giving" Brochure

  by HintOfLime in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  can someone provide me with some information on the names and nature of a brochure by the wt with a name something along the lines of "charitable giving"?

  upon learning that a close jw relative was diagnosed with cancer, and possibly on their deathbed, the "friendly neighborhood jw hopital group" showed up, had a lengthy closed-door discussion with him one-on-one (wife couldn't be present), and left a brocure and dvd in the room with a title along the lines of "charitable giving" - i'm sorry, i didn't read the full name before it disappeared.

  the 'brothers' (*cough* moneyhounders in sheeps clothing *cough*) had already left this "information" and had "discussions" with him before even the family learned of the situation and had arrived.. am i right in thinking this is a "you're soon-to-be-widow doesn't really need that life insurance money" brochure?

  Following GB equals following Christ (Visual Aid)

  by Rank&FileGuy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  .

  just a visual aid to help everyone understand what message they're conveying in the watchtower study this coming sunday.

  it's funny but just by using their first names instead of "governing body" really brings home the ridiculousness of it.. -rfg.
