  i understood, thought that christians have faith in the good news about christ. his death and resurrection as the means of our salvation. i thought we had faith in the good news of the kingdom. Matthew 24:14. which i thought was the establishment of God's Kingdom in 1914 at the end of the gentile times. at this time the faithful slave, the modern day Ezekiel was chosen to do this preaching work.

  having faith i felt i had no option than to pioneer or else as a young person it would show i lacked faith unless there was some good reason not too.

  so when i fulfilled the legal requirement in the USA of attending school i left at 16 and pioneered.

  Did Jehovah provide? well i'm still here. i've never been out of work. i raised kids and they went to university. i have worked in somewhat the field i wanted to but i know i could have done better.

  but for me it was about faith in what i preached.

  how many here attended the "divine victory" international assembly that was held 12- 16 december in christchurch, new zealand?.

  the venue was lancaster park.

  if the truth be known, that stadium was probably a casualty of the february 2011 earthquake?.

  we were sitting in the living room the other night and i asked my wife how she would feel if she heard a lot of noises coming from the back bedroom and then the door of the bedroom open and close and somebody coming down the stairs. she said 'don't' when you know nobody is home but us.

  There was a period of time when I was young when we had ghosts in the house. Noises, doors opened and closed, ghosts were seen.
  
  One evening when my parents were alone in the house they heard a commotion in the upstairs bathroom my mother and father looked at each other puzzled as to how someone had gotten into the house, they then heard someone come out the bathroom and coming down the stairs my father grabbed the kitchen stool he was sitting on and went out to confront the intruder but nobody was there.

  For some reason there seemed to be a connection with the hallway and stairs as several things occurred there but not all.

  So what types of people actually flourish under the JW regime?

  by Julia Orwell in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i sure as eggs know which types don't:.

  creative types: to do well at a creative industry one must dedicate a lot of time to developing one's talent, and as a jw one simply doesn't have time.

  since writing a story or painting a picture doesn't contribute in any way to prestudy, meetings or fs results it's considered useless anyway.

  i've seen lots of different people. some hippies and a former fascist. families that lived in big houses in good neighbourhoods and very poor people who became JW's. the fascist left it. the hippy and the fascist became elders.

  flourish. i don't know.

  it's not easy raising kids. one of my children needed a different kind of reasoning with than my other one. my father commented a few years ago when he was in his 70's about what good kids we (his kids) had been. a lot of that, from my perspective, had to do with being Witnesses and having a strong belief in God. my kids weren't raised the same (as Witnesses) and i didn't want them to be or have a relationship with their parents like i had. at times i have been angry and my child was left with no doubt that a line had been crossed and he needed to change. we have a good relationship. i think it is important to apologize when as a parent you get it wrong.
