  Can you not just dress from the waist up?

  Or just the nipples up? Who's gonna know?

  If "Zoom" is All They Have Now.....

  think of the possibilities, if this technology is all they have to stay in touch with their minions think of the wonderful possibilities..... 1. think of what just one molotov cocktail or flame thrower could do to their broadcasting room and the "world wide work.

  2. or better yet if "v" (for vendetta) hacked into their broadcasting system...and told them the real truth.

  3. just one rogue bethelite could have all kinds of fun..... i can dream can't i.....

  My brother tells me that my fulltime pioneer mum doesnt know what to do with herself and "is struggling" without the meetings or ministry. She has JWBroadcasting on all day everyday in the background.

  How indoctrinated can you get?

  You would think, wouldnt you, that with "the end of this system" on our doorstep that our families would be banging on our doors trying to show us the evidence.

  All I got were two Mormon boys asking if we need any help in the current situation. Good on them (still a cult, but...) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  2020 Memorial - No Need To Actually Have The Emblems

  over at jw talk they're saying because they're having to hold the upcoming memorial at home, they dont need to actually have the emblems.

  apparently, listening to or watching the talk is the thing that counts.. "do this in rememberence of me" apparently means watching tony morris on your phone give a talk.. this begs the question... "what's the point?

  *** w85 2/15 p. 31 Questions From Readers ***
  Questions From Readers
  ▪ If a Christian cannot be at the celebration of the Lord’s Evening Meal, what should he do?

  But sometimes unusual obstacles arise. On occasion, raging storms or floods have prevented a congregation, or some of its members, from meeting together as planned. In rare cases, martial law has been in effect with armed soldiers barring citizens from being out-of-doors after sunset. Other Christians have not been able to be at the congregation’s celebration because of being hospitalized or seriously ill. What can be done in such instances?

  While it is fitting for the whole congregation to unite for this important event, circumstances such as noted above may make that impossible. When extreme weather, a natural disaster, or the like, absolutely prevents a family or a portion of a congregation from meeting with the congregation, the isolated ones can meet and discuss Scriptural accounts such as found in Luke 22:7-23, 28-30 and 1 Corinthians 11:20-31, as well as discussing the meaning of the occasion.

  Similarly, if an enforced curfew makes it impossible for a congregation to gather on the appropriate night, meeting in Congregation Book Study groups or neighborhood groups might be the best alternative, the sum of those in attendance serving as the congregation’s attendance report. A brief talk may even be given if a capable, dedicated brother is in the group. There need not be concern that no suitable emblems are available as long as no one in this emergency situation previously partook of the bread and the wine as an anointed Christian.

  So do you think the Russian brothers are saying "WTF" right now?

  by nowwhat? in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  they were told to risk imprisonment to keep meeting and preaching because "we must obey god rather than men".

  while here in the u s. we voluntarily cancel meetings and preaching because "we need to be in subjection to the superior authorities".

  thoughts?.

  I was thinking the same thing.

  I remember proudly boasting that when the government try to stop us from meeting together we'd "obey god as ruler rather than men" and it'd likely result in us going to prison etc.

  And now......... the GB bend over.

  will the elders disfellowship her?

  They wouldn’t actually have grounds to do anything about it. But we all know if the elders got wind of it they’d pull an unrelated scripture out of their ass and try to “council” her.

  Remember when we were told the government would ban meetings but we'd steadfastly meet together anyway?

  Turns out all it takes is a virus and they'll obey the government after all.
