when they come to your door knocking... the best way to preach back is.... handing them a comic book when they hand you a watchtower magazine..
If your question is serious -- the only thing you can do is "plant a seed" of doubt. Some thought that they might Google when they are alone or something that will nag them every time the matter comes to mind in the future.
What is that "one" thought or issue? There isn't "one" answer for that.
A person with whom I "studied" is who planted some of my doubts that contributed to my awakening to TTATT.
i have been thinking about the legal departments that look after the wts interests around the world.i can`t believe these legal eagles offer their services on a voluntary basis like the r&f do.and i don`t believe their services would come cheap.. as an organization the size of jw.org and its offshoots of companys and interests around the world ,the cost of keeping them gainfully employed must amount to a considerable sum of money.. especially the law suits against them with child abuse court cases that arise on a regular basis ,and the government inquiry`s into the jw religion that is happening in different countries now.. all paid for by the voluntary contributions that come from the r&f for the worldwide preaching work .. contributions to pay for the wt organization`s legal department to defend themselves in court ?.
did jesus and the apostles pay lawyers to defend them in a court of law with funds donated by their supporters ?.
There are some attorneys who are JW's. The couple that I know donate their services to WTS. One was a convert and he/she even semi-retired from their law firm and worked full time at Bethel for several years. The other was a paralegal and his/her employer put them through law school and he/she works pro bono for WTS with the estates of local JW's wanting to gift $$ to WTS.
The high profile cases -- I suspect WTS hired the high profile (worldly) attorneys for some of these as there is too much liability at risk just beyond the case at hand.
one thing that aggravates me is long concluding prayers, especially at the midweek meeting.
you work all day, rush home, grab a quick bite, dress up in meeting clothes.
then, go to the meeting.
There was a dear old CO that I loved that always told anyone assigned to a prayer at the assembly/convention to be mindful NOT to pray for so long that the audience thinks you are jealous that you did not get the talk as your assignment.
i am so sick of hearing ( wife is pimi):.
critical times so hard to deal with.
last nano second..... buy out the time.
Why do they call them the "Last Days"?
Because they last............and they last.............and they last...........and.....
hello all, hope everyone is doing good!!!!.
so my wife tells me yesterday....on saturday we having a emergency disaster class on saturday.
kinda like most corporation have and it's through zoom.
Reality, The JW's have no clue......
Actually, that about sums it all up.
this was sent to me by a cooky uber-dub.
apparently it's making the rounds locally...it's typical lighthearted jw satire (that they think is great!!
smh :-/ ) .
These people are f*cking ridiculous! Absolutely delusional!
Don't they know that all of these Glorious Ones were already resurrected in 1925 and it's just been kept secret?
Judge Rutherford said so, so it must be true!
you will die.
i will die.
those who have gone before us, the great and the small, the powerful and the weak, have shared the common fate of dying.
Belief in the afterlife is like wearing a condom -- it provides a false sense of security without any guarantee.
this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.
latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.
the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.
There are almost no single family dwellings in NYC. I suspect the virus has contaminated entire apartment buildings. People who stayed at home in their apartment or flat on the 10th floor have been exposed to every COVID positive person in their building.

Don't you realize that The Truth is "ever changing"?
How is it that we were so duped that we couldn't see how ridiculous that statement is?
today is the 75th anniversary of the end of wii in europe.
they were a special generation who were literally prepared to give their lives rather than submit to fascism.
millions paid the ultimate price.
(Not so sure about the British) but here in America the younger generation is voting for socialism and are willing to give up what used to be our fundamental rights (laws against hate speech, gun control, etc).
If the was was held today, I'm afraid the outcome would be very different.
