just wondering, during the meetings, what do the brothers whisper about.
at most of the meetings i see brothers coming up to other brothers during the meetings...always whispering something...you got it i'm nosy...what is it they have to say that's so important during the meeting.
it's not just every now & again, it's all the time.... anyone here been a brother or have privy to what you whispered about ?
Midweek meetings were quite stressful/busy for School Overseers (as it was my experience). Never sure if everybody would show up for their talks. To fill up the gaps, the SO regularly needed to walk around (or sending someone) whispering (begging) for volunteers.
Same for (last minute) changes about the anouncements on the good ol' service meeting. Could give you an excuse to make little jokes to someone also and surely could make you feel important, since it had to do with Jah's spritual food
we are two students from holland, who would like some information about jehovah witnesses.
especially about the invisible return of jesus.
on which bible scripts do you ground this?
Sorry to most readers, but I'll turn to Dutch now, just for the sake of clarity.
Dag dames, hoewel de meesten hier op dit forum geen boodschap meer hebben aan de corrupte chronologie die de getuigen gebruiken om in 1914 uit te komen, vinden jullie hieronder de link naar hun meest gebruikte studieboek (Wat Leert de Bijbel echt?) op hun eigen officiele website. Jullie vinden de info puur vanuit de Getuigen doctrine zelf in hoofdstuk 8 en 9 en ook de appendix (bldz. 215-218) waarnaar verwezen wordt in hoofdstuk 8. Alle bijbelteksten zullen jullie hier vinden.

ZEER BELANGRIJK!!! Vergeet niet om ook de tegenargumenten en ontmaskering van deze leerstelling te onderzoeken op b.v. dit forum, jwfacts.com en ad1914.com! Pas dan zie je de hiaten en historische verdraaiingen rondom 1914! Succes!
with the newly released homophobic video by the wts, it gets clearer that those people can't stop shooting themselves in the foot.
they are already under examination and de facto trial by the australian committee; more and more people and officials in western democracies inquire into their abusive tactics and put them under the microscope, and what do they do?
they release a video which confirms those worries.
With all the failed prophecies and flip-flop doctrines, the only thing they can do now is to thrive on their persecution-complex and wait for Armageddon to come "soon". Video's like these will only fasten Jah's work, although the outcome will be a huge deception to thinking JW's.
“i have to thank jehovah god for this,” serena williams told the crowd after receiving the trophy at the australian open in january, her sixth win there.
“i was down and out and he helped me today and i just said prayers”.
Powerful message Paul...it should make 'em think.
polish branch committee member (former chairman) brought into court!.
see also: polish forums..
"we don't do public apologies in the organization".
God's chosen people are so close to Armageddon. With divine approval at hand, apologies are for pagan religions, such as the CC.
in awake!
3 2016, an article on dr. semmelweis states:.
semmelweis was eventually recognized as one of the fathers of the modern antiseptic technique.
the kingdom of god is already begun, which is pointed out in prophecy as due to begin the exercise of power in a.d. 1878, and that the "battle of the great day of god almighty" which will end in 1914 with the complete overthrow of the earth's present rulership, is already commenced.. i just did the math....and russell was right.
christ returned invisibly in 1874 and took rulership (restored kingdom reign) in 1878.. 2520 years minus 607 when jerusalem was destroyed = 1913 (accounting for no year zero) = 1914. that`s 2520 - 607 = 2014. but wait, that`s 2520 prophetic years of 360 days, not solar days of 365.25 days.
to convert to solar days then one must multuiply 2520 x 365.25 which gives us 2,484 actual years.
Baker..."overlapping Armegeddon[sic]"
Everything is possible within the recent tsunami of "new light" lol
if this is true, and we will have to wait and see.
prince could give everything to the watchtower.
so that's his $300 million fortune.
According to this Dutch newspaper, Prince didn't have a will (at least not until 2014). Money would go to his 6 (half) brothers and sisters, not to the WT.
Time will tell...

which ones make you the maddest?
covering up of abuse, shunning, failed end of world predictions?.
my list is long and heavy, but the top 3 that set me off the most are:.
Proclaiming "soon" since 1879.
Hiding sexual abuse scandals while condemning Babylon the Great for their fruits and not having god's spirit.
Keeping the sheep ignorant by hiding the old publications for them.
during co visit, i took him for a bible study i was conducting.
during the session, the householder said he believed satan was not a person, but personification of evil within us.
i left co to handle householder’s doubt.
CO's must be so afraid...maybe 2016 will be a year of cleansing
