I will be 84 this year and i`m not looking forward to dying anytime soon ,how about you ?
Smiddy, owyergoinmate?
i’m not quite as old as you but getting there.
i lost my dear Mrs Ozzie three years ago next month and have had plenty of time to reflect.
Still I’ve gotta say that with everything we’ve lived through since she passed (drought, Covid, La Nina ); now we’ve come through it all and can be thankful.
I always said there were two things in my life, Mrs Ozzie and my church. I may not have Mrs Ozzie any longer but I do have my church.
Mrs Ozzie and I sacrificed everything, I mean everything, for our acknowledging Christ as our Lord.
On her passing to Glory, she was buried in the churchyard she grew to love as she had ministered there, a place overlooking Bethel whose clutches we both left some twenty something years prior.
I believe we can say it has been a life well lived. Mistakes? Yes but nonetheless I’ve ‘done my job’. Was it my best? Can’t claim that, but my imperfect best perhaps.
i am waiting to see my Maker where I will see Him ‘face to face’.
What a blessed Lord!
In the meantime we can enjoy each’s posting company.
Cheers,
Ozzie 🍷( shiraz appreciation class)
this has been announced on the jw's official website, in the "jw news" section.
this is not a joke.
anthony moron da turd is out as a gluttonous body member!
I can only imagine what it would be like sitting on a commitee with him.
Oh, what a (bad) dream is that!
Please, get that committee imagination outta your mind right now, y’hear!

it doesn’t make the GB any nobler now that he is gone. They are still shielding over 20k pedos, still taking the money of the members and giving nothing in return, still breaking up families, still flip flopping on teachings so that few JWs even know what the teaching de jour is - and more nonsense than I care to type with my thumbs.
Tony’s departure means very little as far as WTC credibility is concerned. They are still false religion - and I am still free and happy!
Amen and amen to all of that!

a topic was started over at reddit directing people's attention to a depiction on jw.org of the governing body.
it's not in their publication, only on the website under the topic of "what is the governing body?
but who are these guys in the depiction?.
surely in the near future there will be some more departures.
As in rapture ? !!
Sorry, couldn’t resist.

LMSA:
We're here and open for business as there is quite literally no other forum that allows frank and open discussion about this matter.
As far as I’m aware that has been the case for a generation or more.
I’ve been around for 21 years now and previously with the forerunner H2O and know that though others may come or go, this is the ‘go to’ place.
BTW enjoying each day with you, cobber! (I’m an aussie and that’s what the older generation here call a mate.) 😀

Magnum.
What a load of self pittying waffle. You’re only hurting yourself.
Crack on.
Whoa there boy !
Magnum has been here many years and is worthy of some esteem.
You both deserve our respect at least in your opinions.
Now let’s be nice and enjoy a shiraz together.
Cheers, Ozzie 🍷
i remember having read somewhere, but i cannot find it anymore, that it is possible to debunk the 1914 calculus using only jw publications, like "insight on the scriptures" (chronologies) for example.. do you have any sources about that to suggest to me?.
thanks..
@scholar
Talking about age I am approaching 76 years
Seems i’m ahead of you but only just.
Methinks we can still teach the young ‘uns a thing or two, eh?
