  Coming Out To My JW Sister

  by Ame SF in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  now, i have been mentally "awake" for quite a while, but i'll just say march/april this year.

  i won't go into detail about what it was that made me "realize" everything, so don't bother asking.. so, i've known for years that i wasn't like most girls in my classes, kingdom hall, and just in general.

  from a very young age i had that obvious interest in the same sex, but seeing as i was seemingly the only one feeling that way i would brush it off and eventually i started getting interested in guys.

  Who or which department issued the statement after Prince died?

  I think that would be the most recent?

  JW elder on the street I live in.

  so just the other day i happened to look out my window to see the cobe and the elder who studied with me on the doors.

  it got me thinking.. i remember one day, during my study that he said he loved me.

  although he meant this as a "brother" it actually sent me into, what i can only describe as shock and alarm!

  They have a form of love but prove false to its power.

  Hows that for taking liberty with a quote?

  I think that they dont have anything to lure us back with.

  Anthony Morris III Autobiography ... The Real Truth

  by Wild_Thing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the watchtower published anthony morris iii's autobiography last year ... "remembering my first love has helped me to endure" by anthony morris iii.

  i absolutely cannot believe how quickly he became a jehovah's witness.

  in the span of less than a year, he attended his first meeting, studied, got baptized, became a pioneer, and married a jw girl.

  I know I have told you guys about this before but at the 2014 convention in Atlanta, there was a huge lightening/thunderstorm during the closing talk.

  Morris was giving the talk and made an announcement from the Chairman's office for everyone to delay leaving for 10 minutes after the close because an unusually strong cell was moving through right then.

  So after he made that announcement he offhandedly said

  " I could ask my big brother to stop it but he is busy"

  It was obvious he was calling Jesus his big brother and it seemed to cause a rather uneasy laughter to ripple through the crowd.

  I sat there stunned. I couldnt believe the casual, yet really convinced of his own words, way he said it!

  The Golden Age -- "Making Unleavened Bread for the Memorial"

  by Nathan Natas in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i know that in the past some have asked about this.

  i would add that before you dry the matzoh, run a docker over the cracker or prick it all over with a fork.

  this is supposed to prevent large "blisters" from forming, and the dough enjoys it.. .

  I am enjoying reading the "oldies" you are posting, thank you!

  The whole concept of the water being spring water and no metals in it as well as the wheat being ground while you watch, has a vaguely kosher sound to it doesnt it?

  i would love to compile a list of the education obtained by the governing body members both past and present.

  can anyone provide any information to get me started?.

  it still amazes me they think they can translate ancient languages with an 8th grade education.

  I think I remember hearing (reading) that Freddie Franz had an old Jewish scholar/friend that had clearance to come and go at headquarters and that this man helped him translate.

  Do I have that right?

  Anyone?

  i was really puzzled when i opened this edition of the wt magazine at the above “study”.

  what on earth has this picture at the top of page 13 got to do with christian watchfulness?

  i wasn’t making a connection at all.

  So if the point of that picture is sit down and shut up for the music, what about the 3 yahoos talking and on the phone?

  And the two gabby sisters...they are sitting but talking (gasp) the effrontery of it all!
