T-Shirts or Signs to Post in Yard about "100 year Anniversary of Christ's Enthronement" ideas?

one way to bust through the trickerly and mind control used by the watchtower is making people think.

if we can show how the "end times" began in 1874 using numbers from the "walsh trial", is thinking possible?

the numbers and dates used in scottland must have a use to us, using brother russells own words could bring one person to change.

i'm writing an article on my website about the truth ,and why it is important for a jw to search for the truth about his church .i stumbled upon a great wt 95 aricle (w95,7/1 why search for truth) and wonder if you can help make the connection between this article and the need to know the ttatt.. wt quote:".

granted, accepting the truths of gods word exacts a price.

first, just learning the truth can be a shattering experience.

Vinyl words printed for back of my car should say??

by RayPublisher in

so let's say i've thought about having some vinyl lettering printed up and stuck on the back windshield of the car to publicize ttatt...what should it say?.

"do you know ttatt?".

"jehovah's witnesses are a cult that breaks up families".

So let's say I've thought about having some vinyl lettering printed up and stuck on the back windshield of the car to publicize TTATT...what should it say?

"Do You Know TTATT?"

---

"Jehovah's Witnesses are a cult that breaks up families"

---

"Ex-Jehovah's Witness on board. Thank you Jesus!"

---

"Former JW elder on board... ask me how I got out!"

---

And I would say that any of them would probably end with a second line that says:

"Visit www.JWFacts.com to learn more"

Anyway, as always I love the feedback on here as you cream-o-the-crop dissidents always get my brain stimulated when I need it!

Once I settle on one that is particularly good and to my liking, I am going to take the plunge and do it at least for a month and document what (if anything) that happens as a result.

sorry i don't know how to post the actual letter but here is the text of it.

lol.

christian congregation of jehovahs witnesses 2821 route 22, patterson, ny 12563-2237 phone: (845) 306-1100.

@ JV - This is a diabolical money-making strategy. I saw it on the Circuit level when I was still an elder the same thing happened. We got reamed for not sending more of "the surplus to mother" to hold onto by the DO.

how many here are (a) ex-jw, (b) non-jw with jw relatives or spouses, (c) inactive jw, or (d) active jw who stay in for your own reasons?.

Faded out almost 3 years ago. Voluntarily went in to a JC to get myself DFed for apostasy and recorded it in 2012-09.

Been kicked out for 13.75 months and loving it.

Sadly, fading is bad for my marriage

by stillin in

while headship has always been a problem in my marriage, partly because i'm more of a team player and my wife has man issues, now that i'm clearly fading my wife feels that i have nothing of worth to say.. i resist the idea of divorce but this is not much of a marriage.

since she doesn't/ can't hold down a job alimony would be ridiculously expensive.

cheaper to keep her, as they say.. i get zero cooperation or even discussion for any adjustments i feel might be in order for us as we grow older: obabmacare?

Stillin you have a PM.

JW Unofficial App

by admirmitch in

so i'm sure everyone here knows about the new jw library app.

i was looking around in google play at some different apps pertaining to the jws.

i found something a little different.

RayPublisher

A friend and I talked a couple years back about developing a JW / WT reference app with all the best quotes from their literature for someone ti pull out and show them when trying to share TTATT... that would be stellar.

Follow-up - Grandma Mary Lou video

by BONEZZ in

jw
friends

grandma mary lou is home from rehab and doing pretty good.

she wanted me to give all her well-wishers a big hug and thank you.. her granddaughter may or may not have seen the video yet.

i decided not to give a dvd copy to her fellow employees...for now.

RayPublisher

Great stuff Bonezz. I'm glad she is on the mend, this video has resonated with many.

Question:

Why not just txt your daughter the url of the YT video with a line that says, "You grandma has been thinking of you, watch this when you can."

What would the harm in that be I wonder?

DubYap - What is it ?

by EdenOne in

jw
friends

from wikidub:.

"dubyap is the technical terminology or characteristic idiom of the very special religious group known as jehovah's witnesses.

as philosopher condillac observed in 1782, "every [religion] requires a special language, because every [religion] has its own ideas ... it seems that one ought to begin by composing this language, but people begin by speaking and writing, and the language remains to be composed.

RayPublisher

Small correction IMHO:

The Truth book was called "The Blue Bombshell" by some Dubbs back in the late 1960s-early and mid 1970s.

Witnesses going rogue - trying to blend in with the world

by BluePill2 in

it's been a couple of years now since i left the pink-pony-world of the watchtower real estate & money laundering inc.. out of curiosity i researched a couple of "brothers" to see if they are still in, what they are up these days, etc.

using linkedin, facebook, and other online research i come up with this:.

1. branch committee member lothar mihank (formerly in nicaragua, now branch committee in indonesia) presents himself in linkedin as "ceo of ssyi" and tries to pass the borg as some kind of corporation (which is what they are).
