a carload of jw's worked our street today.
obviously they are doing the invites to the memorial.
of course, we didn't answer.. 1 ring, 2 seconds at the door (that's all we get?
What's the point of it anyway? You aren't doing anything in "remembrance". Who goes to a meal where you're not allowed to eat? Better still, it's ignorant to invite people to a meal when you know you aren't going to feed them.
It's exclusionary. Jesus sacrificed himself only for a small few, according to JW thought, and not for the whole world. But Jesus isn't mentioned much, so ....
this is a legitimate question.
did any of us ever find real joy in being at the meetings?
did any of us ever finish a meeting and think "i feel so enriched"?
Nope. They were solemn and boring. The WT study was particularly excruciatingly boring. Everyone has already read the article, just ask the dayum questions, don't bore us all to death reading it allowed.
Sometimes, I did enjoy the 2nd school where we would put candy corns in our teeth to make the 'student' laugh. The best part of the school were the sisters. That's the only time you heard a general conversation. (Takes far more work than a Bible reading)
there has always been a hierarchy among elders.
now it's been validated by kenneth flodin in this talk about the word "princes".
so not any elder can be a prince in the new order.
Lol!!! I think Abraham and progeny would take exception to that silliness. Those idiots won't be in charge of anything. No 3rd parties required.
Besides, if resurrected ones are neither male nor female, like the angels, how's that going to work? Angels or the like don't take direction from imperfect humans. You would think people there would be sick and tired of others interference ... that's no paradise.
IF I wasn't "saved" because of your blood and sacrifice to get into paradise, you can piss off.

the wt’s teaching that humans will live forever on a paradise earth will necessitate that given that there will be no more death, then immortal humans will have to be relocated to other planets in order to prevent the earth from becoming overpopulated.. so how many habitable, earth-like planets are there?more and more habitable, earth-like planets would have to become available on a continuous, never-ending basis ad infinitum as mankind’s population grows given that there will be no more death.. the longevity/sustainability of life on these planets will be limited by the fact that the sun serving these planets will eventually die:https://shar.es/1cko6n.

so immortal humans will have to keep moving from planet to planet.
this has been tough.
very tough actually.
because i'm so integrated into things including certain tasks which i can't say as it would be a dead giveaway i find myself constantly bombarded by things.. i'm literally a lying every day.
so my hubby has been on a bit of a roll about the jdubs, we were talking a lot about them & he said the buzz word he hate's the most is "worldly" why?
because he say's "with that one word they have condemned (according to their believes) a person as being worthy of nothing but death.
".
John 3:16 KJVFor God so loved "the world", that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
the article (faith) is all about why you should have solid evidence based reasons for belief in god.
it's not good enough to believe in god just because you were raised to believe in god.. (from the article).
but god wants those who worship him to have genuine confidence in his existence and in his love.. then it goes on to tell us how we can get that genuine confidence that there is a god.
