  Does Jah protect G.B.?

  by criticalwitness in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i ask purely out of curiosity not to provoke imply or incite anything.

  but when you consider how the pope has to ride around in a bullet proof golf cart lol and considering how many maby thousands of people (apostates) theyve pissed off over the years it takes some pretty big ga-hoe-nads to do this purposefully with no security if you really didnt believe some god was protecting you.

  and ive seen gb walk around aimlously around bethel henchel swingel schroder without a care in the world?

  The Two Trees - My Genesis Ponderings

  by cedars in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've just posted a new blog article to jwstruggle.com on the link below:.

  http://www.jwstruggle.com/2012/03/the-two-trees-my-genesis-ponderings/.

  the purpose behind the article is to explore my own doubts and long-standing confusion over the genesis narrative - particularly the events surrounding adam and eve's expulsion from eden, and the "two trees" (namely the "tree of life" and the "tree of the knowledge of good and bad").. in my article i discuss my confusion over what the exact properties of the "tree of the knowledge of good and bad" may have been, and the fact that evidently by eating of the fruit adam and eve did not become sinful but more godlike.

  Elders Can Hide their Own Sins from the Past-Yet Continue as Elders? Read

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was shocked ( though i probably shouldn't have been ) when reading the new elders manual concerning whether elders have to confess up about former sins from a few years earlier.

  notice this on pg.

  38 , paragraph 19 : it states, " if it comes to light or an appointed brother confesses that he has committed a disfellowshipping offense years in the past : the body of elders may determine he can continue to serve if the following is true : the immorality or other serious wrongdoing occured more than a few years ago, and he is genuinely repentant, recognizing that he should have come forward immediately when he sinned.

  Picketing

  whatever happened to this long lost activity?

  i can remember a time when you couldn't make it from the convention doors to your car without being approached by at least one glassy-eyed apostate holding a sign or thrusting a homemade tract under your nose.

  ahhhh, those were the days...
