This must be very awkward for Michael/Jesus or whatever they're calling him now. Your mother is now a man and you're more important than him.
Guess Jesus/Michael knows how Kendal Jenner feels...
in today's wt study, 9th sept 2018, para 14. we learnt that jesus mother, mary, is one of the 144.000 anointed at penticost.
just another classic, we know more than what is contained in scripture..

hi, i seem to remember that the society have said that you are not viewed as a witness if you have not reported for 6 months.. does this ring any bells?
someone i know has been called for a judicial, even though she has said she doesn’t believe and is not not attending meetings and hasn’t for 6 months.what she did was 12 months ago when she was a witness.. she is not sure whether she should turn up or not, as turning up shows she thinks she answers to elders still.
but also doesn’t want to be automatically disfellowshipped which may happen if she doesn’t turn up.. if there is an article to quote saying someone inactive isn’t seen as a witness, this would be helpful.. any thoughts?.
Her best option is to threaten legal action for harassment. They scurry away like cockroaches when the lawyer card is played.
my wife and me have a booth at the local framers market.
there is usually about 12 t0 14 vendors each week on a small short street in town.
what is funny on each end of this short street are cart setups with 3 people on each cart.
Do they even go door to door anymore?
Work schedule has had me home most Saturdays for the last couple years. I've seen noone. Not even a tract or old mag in my door.
Not that it matters much, first time they do come I'll add myself to the do not call list
I wondered this too. I asked my former-friend who I met on the carts a few weeks ago and I got an angry "OF COURSE WE DO!!"

Wonder what thought was running through his mind when he threw that glass to the floor?
That's a face of hate right there...
about a year ago i started going to a local christain church.
they were good to me.
i missed the the jw type of always find some one to hang around with.
Steve2 is right. I know it's tempting to want instant friends, and something to fill that religion shaped hole you may be feeling - but I found taking 6 months to a year being religion free and experimenting with what you like or don't like is enjoyable, beneficial and very revealing. You may be suprised discovering the REAL you.

What an odd video and a bizarre analogy to use.
"Empty speeches and contradictions"? - Overlapping generation anyone???
the following letter was read in the congregation today.
it's for all the congregations in india.
i have pasted it as it was.
Are any of you able to make a specific donation toward this need? Your donation can be placed in the contribution box marked “Worldwide Work” in your Kingdom Hall. Or are some of you in a position to make a conditional donation or loan until the branch is sold and then your donation would be returned to you?
“‘Zion’s Watch Tower’ has, we believe, JEHOVAH for its backer, and while this is the case it will never beg nor petition men for support. When He who says: ‘All the gold and silver of the mountains are mine,’ fails to provide necessary funds, we will understand it to be time to suspend the publication.” - Zion’s Watch Tower July 1879
Personally, I find the idea of a billion dollar publishing company asking poor Indian brothers for money so they can further their own cause to be sickening.
just curious if he's still lurking and making idle threats.
you can't find all of us who are on jwtalk!
hopefully what you've read on this site has made you start to think and see the truth about the organisation though that "it's not the truth!
There hasnt been a JW yet that's managed to stay here with their faith in tact. He ran away like they all do.
Did he last longer than "a few days" like I predicted? https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5148568701632512/welcoming-our-latest-jw-apologist-jtrottigy
hi guys, long time without paying a visit to this site.
today i returned to check a 'gossip' that is running around in brazilian exjw forums.. they are stating that is almost certain they will make a big change in their doctrine maybe this year yet in the annual meeting.
they say people in warwick were commenting on this.
The one doctrine they need to revise to keep alive is 1914.
People are getting impatient.
Watched this last night. It's VERY well put together and researched. A faded JW friend of mine watched it in mine this morning too and was surprised about the child abuse part.
