God, No. God is love.
Rookie cops? Yes.
are you afraid of the biblical god?.
are you afraid of a god that can read your mind.
if so have you ever considered this a form of mind control?
God, No. God is love.
Rookie cops? Yes.
i've known known a lot of bethelites and it never ceased to amaze me when asked why they wanted to go there the kind of answers i got.
some included:.
my mom used to have dinner ready for me every night when when i was pioneering before i got married.
I always got the impression they were a bit effeminate, not gay though. Maybe they were so skinny & frail from a lack of food.
As for the topic, some couldn't take having to work low paying jobs (due to education) and having to support themselves ... so they went to Bethel.
this is a hall in oceanside, california.
it is hidden away from the street on a nondescript lane.. .
no windows!.
... eerily like those buildings at the death camps.
background:.
when olin r. moyle wrote his letter of resignation to j.f.
rutherford in 1939 he really hit the judge's nerve.
JR was quite vindictive.
could be 8,000 or 18,000 years long......if to jehovah each "a day is like a thousand years and a thousand years a day.
" 1975 armagedon theory was based on this.
{notice how this theory has since died off} my wife was told off by an elder for giving a talk on "creative days not 24 hours" but not stating each was 6,000 years long...she said she didn't believe it....he backed off and said okay then!
Kinda like asking where in the Bible does it say Christ would return "invisibly".
No where.
every now and then i come across comical references to smurfs in posts on this site, i have been in the org all my life and never heard of any demonisation of father abraham's little blue imaginary friends, even when they they hit the uk top ten singles chart.
can someone enlighten me of what was said, where and when?
maybe i missed it because i was more concerned about kiss using an ouija board in plane or axel rose being anagram of oral sex!!!
Haaaaaa! I remember hearing the smurf silliness around 1984.
all the party animals would be there...all the pornstars, slutty women {and men} drinking, drugs...nightclubs!
gambling!
all the celebrities are there, brittney spears, and hubby stealer angelina jolie {brad pitt} compared to witness paradise this sounds like fun!.
I always thought being stuck forever in the 1950s was Hell.
all i have ever head my whole life at meetings is that apostates are full of lies.. about 1 year ago i started checking into the lie.
all i can find is quote's from watchtowers and other books.. .
my question is "what is the lie that apostates are telling?".
Um, I don't think the Portestant Reformation folks cared one iota to be called "Apostate" and "liars" by the RCC, ... and look we all got a copy of the Bible to read for ourselves out of it all.
+1 for those wild n crazy apostate liars.
Hmmmm, maybe someone should go nail a "list" to the front door at Hqts? (Make sure the media is present)
sorry if these have been posted before:.

Not too shabby but what will it sound like when people actually try to sing with it? Will it be the concert version or the boring voidness of the piano version?
And what's with the classical music sickness?
Ah well, I never looked at going to the Hall as "worship", more like an interpretive history class.
who wants a slave?
answer: everybody wants slaves!
slaves can't strike.
"Indentured Servitude" is the name of the game. Its really slavery which pays an amount which never is enough to pay off debt which in turn brings more debt requiring continued servitude. You see that in places where the price of commodities continue to rise, jobs are scarce, but the base salary stays the same (flatlines). [ie Third World countries.]
Plus basic "usury"; which we are supposed to have laws against in the 21st Century.
Its all the rage.
....and yes, pharmas are definitely trying hard to sell people on pills here in the US. Commercials run all day and night here ... the side effect lists are scarey to boot. A large number of children are pill poppers ranging from anti depressants to ritalin.
