Rumor Elders Will Receive Name Badges For Every Meeting.

by HelpMeBelieve in

i keep hearing rumors elders are going to be getting permanent badge cards to wear to every meeting.

one excited brother told me, "it would be nice if new ones to the kingdom hall could see who their shepherds are.

there is a great surge in activity, new bible students will be able to locate the proper elder in charge of bible studies!

You can tell the elders by the size of their meeting bag.

Zone Visit feedback, from ones still in??

by Crazyguy in

just wondering if any one has heard from ones still asleep, what their feedback has been and what comments have been made by the rank and file??.

Thank you OneEyedJoe,

He began the talk saying he was going to back it up with scripture. That is why I wondered exactly what scripture!

Were ANY scriptures given to back up the parts that are now being made fun of?

Specifically, the tight pants, colored socks and spanx?

Why I Love Christmas

by andrekish in

i love celebrating something with goodness at its' true core, even christmas.

some would condemn me for this but that is their concern, not mine.. i think satan is real and i think father christmas and santa claus are like satan's claws at this time of year 'coz we all go bonkers and buy everything in site and overdo things totally.

but that's not christmas to me.

A few verbatim quotes from Anthony Morris' talk during the Branch Visit.

by Open mind in

haven't contributed much here in a while.

it's not modest and it's certainly not sound of mind.

you be spiritual man enough to tell these young fellows 'you don't go out in the ministry looking like that.

The Emperor with No Clothes On Decries Tight Pants.

by steve2 in

jw
friends

for a religious group that has become more and more reader's digest vapid across recent decades, whose ability to defend its doctrines and policies depends on punishing independent thinking and whose meetings are sleep inducing snooze-fests, a talk about sexy clothes is about as desperately arousing as it can get without unzipping one's pants.. but among those who know the religious organization behind tony morris's attention-grabbing address to the faithful, this is anything but surprising.

when you've harped on for long, unforgiving decades about the nearness of the end, whilst simultaneously shoring up treasures on earth - some ear-marked for completion in 2017 - expect even your more loyal followers to shuffle their tired, bedraggled feet and barely stifle forceful yawns.

hell, they may even contemplate tighter fitting clothes because all else is miserably bland - except for the razzle-dazzle of an alluring, colorful world intent on arousing you out of your sad slumber.. so these self-appointed emperors or governing body member focus on anything that threatens a straying spirit.

Good analogy Steve.

The Emperors New Clothes is perfect!

Anthony Morris III - example to the flock - example to the elders

by LogCon in

i find it curious that so many are offended at the comments used by anthony morris iii.. when he publicly states that colourful socks, tight pants and spanx are not part of a christians life, he is teaching a lesson.

the lesson for the flock is not to wear colourful socks, tight pants and spanx.. however,.

the lesson to all the congregation elders is to ensure that these lessons are driven home in their respective congregations.
