  A one sentence reply that could jolt a JW

  by HBH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my mind was wandering last night, and i though of this as a reply to a jw.. "oh, your the people who believe 8 men in brooklyn, ny are directing the world's only true religion.".

  the sentence is a fact that they can't deny, but clearly shows delusion.

  any other one sentence "stingers"?.

  An Interesting Thing Happened at the Meeting Yesterday...

  by PaintedToeNail in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this was reported to me by an attendee: during the watchtower, a brother commented that "we shouldn't question things that we don't have the full facts about, such as why is it so expensive to have an assembly at the grantville assembly hall?

  it would be far cheaper to rent our own space to have an assembly than it is to use grantville.

  we don't have all the facts so we don't know the reasons why and it isn't our place to question".

  the kings speach

  just watched on netflix and had to laugh.

  one of the few positives of being raised a d2d salesman it that public speaking was never a problem unless you do it too much.

  my teachers hated me for being the one to ask the questions only a few others had.

  After giving my first Bible reading at the age of seven, I have never been afraid to speak up, to anyone. I have no problem exposing and shaming those who require it. A few red faced elders can attest to that fact!

  It's reassuring that a person does not need the Society's approval for being deleted as an elder when the reason was their death. What a loving provision from Jehovah!

  That may change !

  Heavenly Gates Closed in 1935… Re-opened in 2007

  by Alfred in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  since 1935, the watchtower had been categorically teaching (for over 6 decades) that the heavenly calling of the 144,000 anointed christians had ceased in 1935. this teaching was especially significant to older jws (especially those who spent much of their lives serving the watchtower as pioneers, elders, missionaries, bethelites, etc.

  ) because many of these would eventually turn their attention to the aging governing body members and feel a sense of relief knowing that the end was drawing ever so near.

  in other words, as more governing body members (who were born before 1935) passed away, the closer they would get to their long-awaited reward of surviving armageddon and living on paradise earth where they would finally hug grass-eating lions near a waterfall while marveling at snow-peaked mountains in the distance.

  Why do the GB need a new Bethel compound if the end is so close? Here is the "official" answer

  by sir82 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as most of us know, the society is spending 10's of millions of dollars on a giant, state of the art, secluded bunker country club headquarters in very remote, isolated warwick ny.. the question that "some" have is, why?

  if armageddon is coming "very soon", why go to all that time & effort & expense?

  why have thousands of jws dedicating their time to this massive effort instead of the "lifesaving ministry"?.

  I ended the last public talk I ever gave with asking for 1 minute of silence for all the murdered aborted babies around the world.

  During that minute I looked everyone in the eye, knowing this would be the last time I was on the platform.

  Several brothers were formed at the rear of the hall, exchanging panicked whispers. I thanked everyone for their display of respect

  and walked off the stage.
