  what DO current Jws say at doors?

  by sowhatnow in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i mean, anyone with a real bible and half a brain doesn't need to log onto a website and read nonsense.. its not a bible study when you present someone a book or magazine to read along in.. its not the gospel, when its not about jesus.

  so what is being pushed in the service meeting to be done at doors?.

  and with what result expected?

  Sample Presentations from the KM:
  
  “We are making brief visits to talk aboutGod. We know that everyone has his own opin-ion about God. Do you think that most peo-ple view him as an impersonal force of natureor as a friend who cares about them personal-ly? [Allow for response.] This Bible verse tellsus what kind of relationship God wants us tohave with him. [Read James 4:8a.] This maga-zine outlines  three things that we can do to feelcloser to God.”
  Some of them say to offer a tract with the link to jw site on them.

  Must be OK to get your picture taken on Santa's lap as long as it isn't on Christmas eve.

  We used to inadvertently have a turkey on thanksgiving and pray we got an inch of snow so we could cancel the meeting.

  there are approved methods of preaching the good news about jw.org in style!.

  caleb and his single mammy, tired of your child losing notes to his teacher, pin that note with a friendly, lively jw.org caleb and mommy button for a small fee!

  A "JW.Org" tramp stamp would be priceless.

  Pretty much my first foray onto pintrest so I don't really know how it works but this seemed very cultish for sure.

  JW Broadband???

  by Gladring in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the congregation my parents belong to (they live in ireland) has been having a massive refurbishment recently.

  apparently the congregation wanted to spend about 20k euro, but the society pushed for spending 100k euro "so that they won't have to do it again in 10 years time".. .

  anyway, my dad was talking about changing his broadband provider, and he mentioned that he was going to wait, because some brothers came to his house with an aerial and they can receive the kingdom hall's new broadband.

  Should your father be leeching off the KH's broadband that other people are paying for (through their donations)?

  Well he did.Say that if he got it "from the brothers" it would only cost him 10 Euro a month.

  Plot twist, Looks like the KH is selling access to the broadband that other people are paying for....

  Window-washer is the cover of Feb 2015 WT, "How to enjoy your work!" Hahaha!!

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  .

  after all the jokes and satire on this website about jw's only being able to amount to window washers and house cleaners, the cover page of "how to enjoy your work" showing a window washer and cleaner in the back ground.

  i almost wonder if some awakened, still-in, from this site is part of the writing department or illustrations and put that in there as an inside joke for us?.

  They did away with the book studies right?

  I thought the book studies were, at least in part, a way to prepare for the great tribulation. Which makes it interesting how that picture is very reminiscent of a book study sized meeting.
