by Tallyman in

jw
friends

i am in need of references to watchtower publications that contain images.

of united states government buildings, especially the white house-.

depicted as being violently destroyed by the watchtower society.. i have much of the wt literature pre-1992, and a bit of the post-1992 stuff,.

Tallyman,

Think, Think, Think about what you are trying to accomplish and what will be accomplished by your actions.

So many on this board would love to be the one that brings the WBTS down single handed. (The Hero)

If taken seriously what will your actions accomplish?

Yes, they may bring some heat to the society.

Yes, it will bring persecution among many, many innocent people who truly feel in their heart what they are doing is right. (something you can be proud of ?)

This is what you will accomplish.....

Jw's are waiting on pins and needles for the government to turn on them. They will lift up their heads and rejoice.

It will strengthen their faith in an org. who has told them that this is what will happen.

It will confirm to them that the org. is the true prophet of Jehovah and to stick with them no matter what is brought out about them ( being connected with the UN, harboring child abuse among other things)

It will close the eyes and minds of those that would eventually see things for what they are. Why?? Because you have helped the org. in accomplishing the biggest sign that they and only they are Jehovah's chosen people.

You Tallyman will be helping to fulfill their Bible prophecy.

I'm sure that the org. will be sending you a thank you note any day. Be sure and keep a check your mail so you can share it will the DB.

Watchtower Exploitation Begins!

by metatron in

jw
friends

over the weekend, various publishers/congregations were.

instructed to go out in service for a "special work".. some congregations received letters from circuit overseers.

emphasizing immediate use of old awake magazines with articles.

Metatron,

We had the same instructions.

literature to be used:

5/22/01 Awake on terrorism (will go into reprint)
8/22/02 Awake post traumatic stress

(brochure)
Does God really care
Will there ever be a world without wars

(tracts)
Comfort for the depressed
Life in a peaceful new world
Peaceful new world when will it come

The scripture to be emphasized is Is. 61:1&2

61 The spirit of the Sovereign Lord Jehovah is upon me, for the reason that Jehovah has anointed me to tell good news to the meek ones. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to those taken captive and the wide opening [of the eyes] even to the prisoners; 2 to proclaim the year of goodwill on the part of Jehovah and the day of vengeance on the part of our God; to comfort all the mourning ones.

WTC Charity: A Blown Opportunity by WTS

by Room 215 in

jw
friends

apart from the noble imperatives of christian charity, the society's rather tepid response to the need for emergency assistance in the aftermath of the wtc tragedy across the harbor illustrates how calcified the thinking of their leadsership has become.. i know, they've accepted a few overnight jw guests and accommodated some others, but when measured against the magnitude of their resources, these meager photo-op and pr-op gestures are tiny.. by failing to sieze the moment, they blew a priceless opportunity to cut a a firebreak across what they must know will be a maelstrom of publice outrage and criticism when the dateline story runs.

Thanks! Patriot

If they did they would have been registered by now just like every other org. that has donated millions.
It's sad as I was looking at the list of all donations made by so many companies I came across a donation of $1000 made by a group of kids in Mississpi.

Patriot,
do you have a link so we can see if the WBTS does anything?
Thanks!

WT HAS TO GIVE FINAL WITNESS WHEN END COMES

wt has to give final witness when end comes.

(a heavy message of doom from jehavhs organization).

*** re 233-4 32 god's anger brought to a finish ***.

Do you also remember being told that we had to attend all the meetings because when Armageddon came we would probably have to meet secretly. If you weren't there then you would miss the announcement and would not know where to go. (I guess it would not be allowed for anyone to tell you) So yes, brothers and sisters attend each and every meeting. And remember the contribution box is by the door.

Hello Air,

No one should have to go through what you have. As far as your boyfriend having family on his committee meeting that is a huge NO NO!

If there we not enough elders to be able to sit on the committee then they were suppose to have someone from another cong. fill in.

I would not give up your new friends. They may be the only ones that you will ever know. True friends are too hard to come by as you have already been shown. True friends love you for who and what you are, not what they think you should be.

Do you live on your own?

No religion or other person is worth taking your own life. You cannot live your life in order to please someone else. No love or acceptance should be based on conditions such as religion.

When a person has feelings such as suicide it will often times reappear when under pressure. Please find someone in a professional field to talk to. Your life is much to valuable to take. There is always another road to take, it may not be one that will make everyone around you happy but, we are talking about survival. You do what you must in order to survive.

many (((hugs)))! Keep coming back for support!!!

I got invited to a party, should i go?

hello guys,.

i must say that being labeled an apostate has made my life quite interesting.

i'm shunned every day at cosmetology school and the town i live in is small and i run into jw's all the time.

Vitameatavegamin,
Don't I know what you mean. If it a bbq or just playing cards forget it. If it is for a shower of a sales event, invitations galore.

Jurs,
The question is...Do you want to go? Is it something that under different circumstances you would go no hesitation? If you answer yes to either question.. then go.
