  Has anyone found comfort/encouragement from "worldly songs"?

  i remember reading a thread when my exit was starting, about inspirational songs.

  someone posted a link to the "shins" for a fool.

  this was a surprising help to me.

  Most Irritating Thing About The Jw's

  by integ in

  for me it is the smugness.

  it's their inability and refusal to admit they are wrong....ever...even in the face of irrefutable evidence.

  isn't pride a sin?

  i know somebody who got disfellowshipped...they decided to appeal.

  I am not an elder but my advice...do not appeal. Unless you can pull out a BIG gun, one case I heard of was a black brother who got the DF ax and appealed saying it was a white committe and they were racist...so unless there is a major gun..dont try it.

  How does the WT explain Luke 10:7?

  by WildeLover in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  looking thur wt cd i dont see any "decent" explanation of luke 10:7?.

  (luke 10:1-7) 10 after these things the lord designated seventy others and sent them forth by twos in advance of him into every city and place to which he himself was going to come.

  2 then he began to say to them: the harvest, indeed, is great, but the workers are few.

  I know they have used it as to reasoning why we work in twos usually, and giving territory etc.

  so, we are meeting our new co this week... i wonder if he'll be as glory hungry as the last one and the one before him and the one... well you can get the idea.

  too bad we didn't volunteer to feed him .

  that makes me wonder...why do they receive so much glory and attention as if they were some type of celebrity?

  buddy system??

  by grumblecakes in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i searched to see if there was already a thread on this but didnt see one.... .

  i was thinking about this weird-a@# struggle we have all found ourselves in and one of the worst things about it is not having a soul in the world to talk to.

  we find ourselves isolated from those who know us best, those we've loved dearly and the new people we surround ourselves with could never begin to understand (non-jws).

  I think the idea on paper (screen) is good, but organzing it would be hard, I think.

  I would love to help out, as helping others is a knack of mine, so if anyone wants. PM me, I am able to text and email as well, I am online quite often.

  And sorry...but I must:
