Deep study

by road to nowhere in

wifes friend had to go home to deep study the sunday article.

does that mean not skimming headings?

the last deep thing i remember was babylon book and it was a perfect fit except none of it came true.

that outlandish REV book we studied should have woken us up. I remember thining something along the lines of how do they know this applies to JW ( like the locust with the stinging tails being a stinging message that the witnesses brings and the witnesses being everywhere so they couldn't avoid it. ( something like that-it's been years ) But with that book and many others they twist scriptures into knots to make it fit the witnesses. Many times I thought this is just conjecture yet I was guilty of group think. As far as deep study an WT article, they have dumbed those articles down so a 1-3 grade student can get it. ( See Ted Run. Obey Governing Body )

JW s were here today with convention invite

by enoughisenough in

i thought i would tell this story: 2 gals and a guy came by with invitation to convention.

i am in the yard.

the gals get out and are wearing pants.

I am thinking I was one of their more interesting encounters in the invite work! So do you think they go tell some of their friends of the weirdo they met today or do they keep their mouth shut rather than relate what i said? It is possible they will figure out I am "apostate" to them. Maybe not! I wish they would come back. I have more to say.

Blondie's "highlights" from the May 2024 Study WT Paragraphs 1-10

by blondie in

jw
friends

i have not read a wt for many years, but a comment on jwn prompted me to check out this one study article #19. i was stunned, they addressed many observations i have made in the "comments you will not hear" over the years.

this segment will contain comments on the section called what we do not know paragraphs 1 through 10. i will post what we do know” in another original post covering paragraphs 11 through 17”.

1) definition of "king of the south" and "king of the north.

I couldn't help but zero in on point 6 about community responsibility...I wonder how Many sheep have died , been injured with illnesses leading to an earlier death because of the coercion to take the vx. No apologies!! The hearings with Fauci prove what a farce it all was. Law suits have proved it wasn't really a vx. I guess they aren't sorry being they benefit from big pharma stocks.

LongHairGal...I agree there is no excuse for their ignorance at this stage of the game, They do refuse to look at anything that throws shade on the org. But, they have been so duped!I had "friends" that I wish would wake up. They work so hard for their 9 headed god. Hopefully something will come up and they will start questioning just because a seed was planted. They clearly had no knowledge of that which I spoke. As for the trust fund -I told them it was on a tax record that they could look up and it shows the WT as receiving the moneys and also showed the companies in question.

I thought I would tell this story: 2 gals and a guy came by with invitation to convention. I am in the yard. The gals get out and are wearing pants. I say, you are wearing pants and they acknowlege that. Anyway, I don't know how we got into it, but It we got into religion and money and war ( they brought up Catholics going to war, but what does the Bible say. Me: thou shall not kill. So I was asking them, how they would feel about a religion that made money from the war effort since they didn't go to war. Well they agreed that would be wrong. And what about making money from stocks in tobacco, porn, and war machinery . That would be wrong. How about expecting governments to give them state moneys? Where did Jesus get money. me: from his followers helping ( I didn't think to say he worked as a carpenter before his minsitry. I said some governments gave money to religions that meet their standards. ) I said well what about a religion that didn't meet a country's standard still expecting the government to give them money. They thought that wrong. So I told them they could look it up secularly, but JW made money on the mentioned things and were suing Norway for Money. Where did I get that? Me: I saw the tax records online for the stocks (I told them to look it up , Marrietta Riley Trust fund They make money on the war machinery, big pharma- ( had to throw in the poison jabs killed my sister.) ( that appears ok with them because it was given to them -I wish I had thought to mention, the early Christians got rid of bad things even though worth a lot of money. ) I got to tell them that in 1919 the lie of millions now living would never die and the world would end in 1925. This was being preached when Jesus chose them as his spokesmen on earth. ( of course , I got the new light sermon. ) Them : a man had written the book that was in. ( Duh! ) See how deep the programming goes! They wanted me to research and study yadayada. I said since you like to research, you should research what was being taught in 1919 that the became the chosen people, I also threw in The Walsh trial in Scotland where if your Bible taught you one thing and you disagreed with WT, you were deserving of death. At some point, they wanted to know where I got this info. Me: online. One said online they think there is big foot and lock nest monster. Says I: I believe they exist. How does this end? the man got out of the car and came around and said, he perceived I didn't like JWs and they had to get going. I said that I did like JWs ( a do a individuals, but not the lying religion but I didn't say that. I told them to come back anytime. ( I won't hold my breathe.) I did play ignorant and ask where the scripture about the light getting brighter was and she showed me and I ask for context and read it...and it went over her head!!! I like the people and feel sorry for them.

A Few Simple Conclusions

by mrquik in

i had 50 years in.

here's a few (personal) observations to live by:.

1. the one true religion is not here.

enoughisenough

I used to say if the JW don't have the "truth" ( true religion ) then it doesn't exist ( YET ) so I have 50 in before I woke and I agree with you.

I find it interesting Jesus told the Samaritan woman, people wouldn't be worshipping in any certain place, but in spirit and in truth...we don't need big business parading as religions to entrap us. They are cons.

The Governing Body Are Proud To announce..

by Ron.W. in

the governing body are proud to announce... can you finish off the line for them - the more outrageous the better,, .

enoughisenough

You don't need Jesus because we are his substitute...you get truth, life, and come to the Father through us.

What was the strangest situation in your JW Kingdom Hall? Was it weirder than siblings having SEVEN kids together?

by Balaamsass2 in

this is chart-topper: "jehovah's witness whose parents were siblings opens up about their twisted relationship - which saw them having seven children together".

vanessa, from ohio, appeared on an episode of the we're all insane podcast.

the 46-year-old explained she is 'one of seven kids born to a brother and sister'.

a group from New Jersey came to work unassigned territory and the local congregation was asked if they could help house these brothers and sisters, It was agreed two visiting sisters would share a queen size bed in my house. One sister appeared to be almost old enough to be the other's mother. They were from neighboring congregations in NJ. It was the week of the state fair where I lived. The two sisters would come in from service and retire to the little room with the queen size bed ( no chair in that room) even though they had access to living room, kitchen etc. I thought this odd. I also thought it odd when I noticed them cuddled up together on the bed. Beings it was fair week, we went to the fair, and they walked around the fair ground sort of laced together. ( ok, you know what I'm thinking.....The local congregation had the visiting group on stage to share their experiences in the unassigned work. I waited to see what sort of experience these two sisters had. It was a large group ( I want to say 14 altogether. ) Everyone told of an experience they had save for these two sisters.

a situation: a married JW man refused to sit with his wife and if he did, he made sure a chair was between them, but he didn't have any issue sitting beside his gay bible study, so he ended up sitting with the " boyfriend".
