I am totally confoused who is the Faithful and Discreet Slave Class?

by booker-t in

i have been hearing and reading on websites about some "new light" jws are saying concerning the faithful and discreet slave class.

it sounds like the same information they have been saying for years.

i was always taught the faithful and discreet slave class is the annoited governing body members dispensing food at the proper time for the non annoited jws.

When Was The Last Time "The Friends" Checked Up On You? Spiritual or Social Visit?

by ÁrbolesdeArabia in

i know of two couples who left the congregation i faded from, they two have never received a shepherding call, i was usually the one who came by with food or offered to help clean their homes.

most of you are beyond this like i am, this goes to the new members arriving here who might think the "friends" are coming to check up on them.

the elders in my former hall were too much into drinking and eating, average body weight was 265lbs with pumpkin shaped bodies.

A friend call me in 2009 to tell me... I could get reinstated now and it was a easier.. and what had happened to me was wrong.. that I should look into it

I DID...

thats why I'm here.. this why they don't want members encouraging DF"d ones... they might take a closer look and become apostates..

I DID!!!!

I'm turning myself in. Lurking elders, are you listening?

by Eve Deceived in

i think it's fitting for my very first post to be a thread on jw.net turning myself in to any lurking elders out there on a witch-hunt to cleanse the congregation so that god's choosen ones can "remain in god's love.

" so i'm sorry to all you awesome, truthful apostates on this site, but this thread is really intended for any lurking nazis -- i mean, the taliban -- ugh, i mean elders of the world's most "loving" cult religion.. i am an apostate.

here, i'll save you the trouble:.

And the point of this video is??

here's a few guesses.... the brooklyn waterfront is a convenient place for the society to make their videosgrowing up as a jw when your friends have cellphones and you don't is "kind of rough" and a "kind of sad story"suddenly it's ok for jw youths to "go out" with worldly friends?

?you should listen to what your "peers" say, so long as they're jws on a society video.

anything else is peer pressure.playing by yourself with a frisbee is the preferred sport for young people (no teams or competition involved)young jws don't have a clue how to communicate with the opposite sex via text messages"it's really up to you how you choose to communicate with this wonderful tool that you have"... even though it clearly isn't.the society's video-making department are already running out of ideashttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=se_iuspg_14.

it's open ended so you can use your own judgement when criticising others on their cellphone use...

How to tell if something is true

by gma-tired2 in

jw
friends

if jws had the true teachings they would not be afraid of members researching and listening.

the truth would be so obvious that they would encourage all research.

my 2 cents worth.

exactly.....

(I forget the exact date but it was something like 1989 or even later.)

It had to be before 87 when I was DF'd.. I went the bethel on one of the 2 week, help referbish the Furman building deals( AT YOUR OWN EXPENSE, SUCH AN HONOR).. and at that time someone at bethel told me the asking for cotributions was done away with because of the windfall IBM paid for the meeps program.. t

I was ousted sortly there after... evidently that wasn't true...
