  very strange behavior by the attendants and elders after the duluth, ga, rc.

  on the first link the attendants start to exit the arena, then line up and turn their backs on the street preachers.

  (around the 6:00 mark).. elders and attendants after duluth rc.

  okay cut to the chase.

  the united states has got a problem.

  hillary clinton is so unpopular that practically any republican who ran against her would probably have beaten her.

  Hillary isn't the best option, but the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so I'm going to vote democrat. Giving your vote to a third party is a vote for Trump!!

  And I don't think that the people from the video are for real, they are acting.

  Today's Text - Show Appreciation For Elders! LOL

  by Divergent in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  wednesday, august 10. holy spirit has appointed you overseers, to shepherd the congregation of god.—acts 20:28.. it is important that we show appreciation for god’s arrangement for shepherding his flock.

  christian elders are a provision from jehovah, who always acts in our best interests.

  the elders are “like a hiding place from the wind, a place of concealment from the rainstorm, like streams of water in a waterless land, like the shadow of a massive crag in a parched land.” (isa.

  we show how much we appreciate these “gifts in men” and give evidence of our love for God and for Christ, the Head of the congregation.—Eph. 4:8
  

  Actually, Ephesians 4:18, the text they use to say that the elders are the "gifts in men" it is a flawed text of the NWT!!!

  Ephesians 4:8Revised Standard Version (RSV)

  8 Therefore it is said,

  “When he ascended on high he led a host of captives,
  and he gave gifts to men.”

  
  

  These gifts to men are the gifts of the Holy Spirit, none a body of elders!!

  oops... guess they didn't look at the map when making up the book of genesis...(genesis 49:13) 13 “zeb′u·lun will reside by the seashore, and he will be by the shore where the ships lie anchored; and his remote side will be toward si′don..

  These are some interesting readings before rushing to any conclusion:

  Elders harassing me

  by raven in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  hi everyone, it has been a while since i've last updated!

  (refer to my previous posts for the full story) here is a quick re-cap: 2 months ago my mother found out that i am living with my boyfriend, she told me i was discovered by an "anonymous" tipper who turned me in for "living in sin".. first of all, that is nearly impossible, the congregation i was in is 100's of miles away from where i currently live.. no one would have ever known i was living with my boyfriend unless i told them, which i never did, i cut off all communication with that congregation in part of my attempted fade which was blown into pieces and discovered.. anyways, my mom tells me if i don't go to the elders and confess like a good little sheep, then she is obligated to tell them.. ( don't see why, i don't even live under her roof ) well i never went to them because why should i?

  so they met with my mother and she told them i live with my boyfriend... let me remind you, this was two months ago.. i was told i was going to be df'd and that was that.

  Introduction - Any Believers?

  by Believer in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i’ve been reading it for a few of years off and on, but have been a little too ... maybe ... timid to join.

  i left the watchtower organization almost 20 years ago but never abandoned my faith and belief in god.

  i knew the gb/organization didn’t represent god, so when i lost my faith in them, i managed to keep my faith in an all wise benevolent creator.

  Hi Believer. I was a born in JW, and left the cult 5 years ago. Now I'm 49 years old. I'm not affiliated to any organized religion, but yes, I'm still a strong believer in God and Jesus. The main reason I still visit the forum is to find out the latest news about the WT, hoping that a bigger number of JW open their eyes about this dangerous cult.

  Does John 6:52-58 state that not only the anointed can partake?

  by MrsR-Awaken in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  so i read a comment on youtube of someone stating that john 6:53-58 woke him up.

  the nwt says .

  so jesus said to them: “most truly i say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in yourselves.+54 whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has everlasting life, and i will resurrect+ him on the last day;55 for my flesh is true food and my blood is true drink.56 whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood remains in union with me, and i in union with him.+ 57 just as the living father sent me and i live because of the father, so also the one who feeds on me will live because of me.+ 58 this is the bread that came down from heaven.

  The Olivet Discourse

  by biblexaminer in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i'm interested in hearing someone explain the olivet discourse.. note, there's much discussion on other sites, but so far, i've not heard an explanation of the entire discourse in a way that is logical, in full harmony and complete.. some feel that they have figured out one piece or another.

  however, when inconsistencies are highlighted, the discussion ends.

  some make outlandish claims.. i know that the watchtower version is so much refuse.
