So what would "Perfect Life" REALLY be like?

by stuckinarut2 in

i wonder sometimes just how jws try and comprehend what perfect life would really be like if "adam and eve" had not sinned?.

how would we live?

what would the realities be like?

ttdtt

Simon you are right. I remember sisters talking about how great it would be to have to get around on a horse.

Of course, none of them had ever been on a horse.

CO asked for everyone 20 years old & younger for a group photo

by LevelThePlayingField in

there was a co visit in ohio a couple weeks ago.

when he was finishing up his sunday talk he said that he would like if "all the children that are from this congregation, not if you're just visiting, but from this congregation to come on up on the stage right after the meeting because i want to get a picture of you.".

i thought to myself, why?

ttdtt

Yes - that has happened in my congregation in the past - I see nothing nefarious about it.

Other than trying to encourage young ones to stay in the cult :)

Hospitality - How not to.....March 2018 study article.

by punkofnice in

what do you make of this part of the march 2018 watchtower study edition?.

2 among other things, peter urged his brothers: “be hospitable to one another.” (1 pet.

4:9) the word “hospitality” in greek literally means “fondness for, or kindness to, strangers.” note, however, that peter urged his christian brothers and sisters to be hospitable “to one another,” to those whom they already knew and associated with.

Same old, just spend more time in the INNER CIRCLE, spend less time with unbelieving family, or anyone else you may know.

If I recall, peter spent lots of time traveling around the Mediterranean, bet he spend time with others rather then the 20 "Christians" around then:)

Are most Jdubs narcicistic? Does the religion breed narcicistic behaviors?

by Whynot in

https://pro.psychcentral.com/exhausted-woman/2015/05/15-narcissistic-religious-abuse-tactics/.

i read the above posted article and it made me wonder how many narcicistic people join the borg because it fits well with their personality.

i also wonder if being indoctrinated makes you become narcicistic.

ttdtt

Yes.

If you are THE CHOSEN PEOPLE of god, you can become narcissistic.

If you just made it out of High School, but are constantly told you have the BEST education in the world, you can become narcissistic. (partly a defense mechanism for knowing you are a loser)

If you are in the know and the rest of the world isn't. You can become narcissistic.

This effects most to some degree.

When something Good happens = Jehovahs Blessing.

When something Bad happens = See we are the truth because Satan attacks us.

When NOTHING happens = God is blessing us and the activity.

WIN WIN WIN - all the time.
