  FORGIVENESS ... You owe it to your health

  by ABibleStudent in

  1. social
  2. physical

  i'm cleaning up my home of unnecessary magazines/newsletters that i have accumulated over the years.

  while i was working as an employee i did not feel like i had the time to read them.

  now that i'm not working as an employee but work as a volunteer to network and maintain workplace skills, i seem to have more time to read.. after reading many threads by former jws, i thought that the following article might help some to heal.

  A farce elder here

  by His Excellency in

  just to share a little about me:.

  i was recently appointed an elder, about 6 months ago now, and that is exactly two years after my awakenning, but funny that the appointment came also about 2 years after i had completely lost all faith in god and had been leading a full time anti-jw life .

  makes you wonder the role of the holy spirit in the entire nomination or appointment process.. .

  this is something i cannot find the answer to on my own.. who exactly answers your letter when you write the society?.

  i thought maybe there has been a thread on this before or maybe one of your awesome researchers would know how to answer?.

  If I am not imposing to ask,

  are you talking about physical pain or emotional pain that you were having?

  I am glad that you got answers confusedandalone.

  I just wish I knew how to break through the glass ceiling of the "form letter" people and get a letter read a bit higher up.

  What JW beliefs did you used to hate trying to defend?

  by DuvanMuvan in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as one of the jw "young ones" i was always expected to witness to my friends at school if i wanted to make god's heart glad or whatever but i didn't.

  the closest i ever got was just explaining why we didn't celebrate christmasetc.

  even then i was just reciting things i read in publications.. one topic i always tried to avoid talking about was birthdays.

  Not being able to go in to a church for a wedding or because someone invited me to visit.....even though I invited them to visit the Kingdom Hall.

  Same with not taking any literature from anyone....

  What was the "theme" of each decade?

  by ILoveTTATT in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if you could list the major themes of the watchtowerland per decade, what would they be?.

  for example, 2010-2014: overlapping generation, gb=fds, jw.org, 100 years.

  2000-2009: harder stance on higher ed.. 1990-1999: generation no longer a major doctrine.. 1980-1989: getting over 1975, ray franz, year of peace, end before 20th century ends, generation is 70 years old.

  This always makes me wonder, the whole reproof and taking away privileges of commenting that Crazyboy mentioned above.

  A person walking in off the street can comment, so what are they preventing exactly when they restrict a brother from it?
