  The elder actually says that ANYONE can be a threat to the cong.....

  Wow, that's one hell of a belief system they've got going there. . . . . seems quite fragile if ANYONE can be a threat. Really? Your faith can't withstand WORDS coming out of someone's mouth? Amazing.

  My Elderette is attempting to change the subject again

  by Faithful Witness in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  we were in the middle of discussing their use of god's personal name, and miss k was not able to find one place in the bible, where jesus actually said the name out loud (that wasn't a quote from the ot).

  we had started out by talking about jesus being "the way, the truth and the life.

  " then she stated that one of the purposes of jesus' coming to earth, was "to make god's name known.

  Interesting discussions you're having! Thanks for posting them.

  BTW, this:

  Miss K sent me a text, telling me she was "thinking of me."

  will undoubtedly be marked down in the "Return Visits" column of her FS report.

  She probably didn't even have to leave bed for that one!

  JWs in a frenzy!

  by leaving_quietly in

  2. beliefs

  anyone else get the distinct impression that jws are being worked up into a frenzy with all the changes and activity nowadays?

  by the end of august, there will have been four campaigns inside of a year.

  one last november, a memorial campaign, a convention campaign and an advertise jw.org campaign.. then there's the conventions with all the hooplah around that with all the video, and the aggrandizement of synchronized gb talks.

  to make a pledge of any kind is to declare war against nature;.

  for a pledge is a chain that is always clanking and reminding the wearer of it.

  Has anyone heard of "Secret Disfellowshipping" by Jehovah's Witnesses? Menlo Park Ca. Congregation. Update.

  by Balaamsass in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  no doubt everyone has been following the juan viejo postings regarding the watchtower kingdom hall "grab" on jwn for the last couple of years.

  called the mrs and me to say "wow- you have to google this" we did...came here to jwn ...became members..and the rest is history.. in the last nine months i have been calling and emailing contacts in the silicon valley for verification on the societies theft and forced sale of the menlo park kingdom hall (near the new facebook heaquarters) because the story seemed...a little far fetched.

  every reliable contact i made has confirmed what juan reported.

  WITNESSES CAN STOP REPORTING FIELD SERVICE!

  2. child-abuse

  the lawyers acting on behalf of the wtbts/g.b./'mother' during a paedophile case a couple of years ago, have stated on record that - .

  a) "field ministry is not controlled or monitored by the elders, the congregation, or watchtower".

  b) "an individual publisher's field ministry activity, including the time and manner it is carried out, is a personal matter between the publisher and his god.".

  Animal sacrifices! This weeks bible reading

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  of what relevance is a written biblical record about how animals were killed, dissected, burned, etc?.

  why splash blood on the ears of a priest etc?.

  why oh why does the god of exodus like having animals killed, just so he can have some smoke smell rise to heaven?.

  So my wife and I (this was a couple years ago) were watching one of the Michael Palin travel shows and wherever he was, the people do an animal sacrifice. They didn't show everything explicitly, but you do certainly get the point: it is a particulaly brutal act.

  My wife recoiled in horror. How awful!

  But, I said, How often were sacrifices made in EXACTLY THAT SAME MANNER to Jehovah by the Israelites? A loving god really wants that?!
