  Social aid and the Witnesses

  *** g 5/08 p. 21 is philanthropy the answer?

  ***by fully addressing the root causes of human suffering, god will accomplish what is well beyond all humans, individually and collectively.

  accordingly, rather than set up philanthropic organizations, jehovahs witnesses, in imitation of jesus christ, prefer to devote their time and financial resources to announcing the good news of [gods] kingdom.matthew 24:14; luke 4:43.. i have collected a few quotes like this one but could use some more.

  A letter writting campaign to current JW's

  by Aaron Eldridge in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i thought there was something on this site recently about a letter writting campaign that helped over 40 witnesses leave the org, but i cannot find anything here.

  i searched all the related sites but again found nothing.

  i am starting to question if i dreamt the whole thing up.

  You can take your three day quickbuild and shove it...

  by Aaron Eldridge in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there is a christian organisation that builds churches in one day, oddly enough they are called church in a day.

  so much for the quickbuild being used as proof of god's divine order working through the organisation.. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/05/29/faithful-volunteers-build-church-in-one-day-in-iowa/.

  Question about Bible Studies?

  by Aaron Eldridge in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  is there any restriction on jehovah's witnesses becoming friends with their "bible studies"?

  while they are studying with them could they do things like go to the movies, go out for a cup of coffee, or just hang out with out the pretense of it being a study?

  i tried to search on my version of the watchtower library cd-rom but could not find any direct answers.

  "any being that has say over nothing is no person at all.

  Young adults who are disfellowshipped/disassociated and houselessness?

  by Aaron Eldridge in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was wondering if anyone knew of any individuals that became houseless when they were disfellowshipped or disassociated themselves.

  i know that i had to move out of my house within a few months after i disassociated myself, but i believe that if i did not have anywhere to go my parents would not have kicked me out of the house.. .
