i'm a witness, so i need to know...can we pray for someone that isn't a jw.
reason i ask, once a friend of mine was going for an operation.
i asked an elder could he pray with her before she goes into the hospital.
.
.
Hell, yes, you can pray with and for whoever you like. . . . Pray for Obama, Putin, Merkel, Cameron, Holande, and the like. Then show him the urge to do just so in 1. Timothy 2:1-3.
That elder probably got farther in reading the "Flock"-Book than reading the Bible.

what hits me was the number of apathy carts in the city.
they were at powell station, embarcadero, fisherman wharf, etc.

Now I, for one, would not want to have "my relevant medical records and the details of my condition being shared with the HLC.

i heard that the memorial will stop after the last anointed have passed away ... is this information true/false?
just curious.
it's secondhand.
He then said that after that when the 144k are all in heaven the memorial will no longer be observed.
. . . so, then, the memorial celebration will come to a finish before Armageddon. The latest teaching says that the 'remnant' will be called to heaven - raptured - before the big A.
Correct?
Sheesh, . . . . is he trying to explain the deeper things of God’s Word?
Growing to maturity requires that we learn to draw nourishment from solid food, the deeper truths of God’s Word. Otherwise, our perceptive powers will necessarily remain limited.

. . . after all, it appears the perceptive powers have remained limited with them.

2015-12-17-boe already, you dear brothers have done so well, sending gifts both large and small.
for in-stance, two children, five and seven years old, sent their pocket money to help build our new bethel instead of going to the circus, writing, "this is much better than that!
The WTBTS knows exactly how to suck them:
If you donate £100 per year to us, the government will give us, currently, a further £25. Cumulatively this is very significant.
