Cain and Abel...Who recorded this tragic event?

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

3 the day came when cain brought a gift of the fruit of the ground to the lord.

4 but abel brought a gift of the first-born of his flocks and of the fat parts.

the lord showed favor to abel and his gift.

At the mouth of two or three witnesses a matter is confirmed.

Vs 6,9,10 the lord said to Cain ,no witnesses to these conversations .

Where's Cain's version of the events?

Was it self defense,did Abel fall over one of his sheep .

And if the story is true what did Adam do regarding this murderer ,told him to take one of my daughter's your sister as a wife and banished them to the wilderness where if the Bible was true there are no other humans.

And Adams final words to them as they walked away was to watch out for those dinosaur's .

What are the Society's rules when confronting a disfellowshipped person at a funeral service?

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

what are the society's rules when confronting a disfellowshipped person at a funeral service?.

are there specific rules or watchtower articles that must be followed?.

i have been to three different wakes/funerals where a disfellowshipped person attended with different results.. 1. ten years ago my first cousin passed away.

Fadeaway1962

Think it depends on the elders and sadly how they view the individual disfellowshiped person , some will veiw it as" necessary family business" .

On one occasion at the kingdom hall they were ok with the disfellowshiped person but made a scene at the gathering after.

Another occasion at the disfellowshiped person mother's funeral they were left alone and people that grew up with the person ,were can we speak to the person over their loss and I explained that a funeral is necessary family business they were ok then to express the sorrow at the loss of the person mother .

That was a few years ago what the rules are now ,who knows .

JWs Were Right About Something

by minimus in

jw
friends

they used to say the world governments would turn on religion.

i think this part is coming true.

however they also said since jehovah’s witnesses were going to be the only religion left the governments were going to focus on the “eyeball”of jehovah, his people.

Fadeaway1962

They were right when they made the statement

That religion is a snare and a racket.

But failed to realize it included themselves .

EXCELLENT F.B Post re: latest Borg Mind Control etc

by Phizzy in

from william.

h. bowen on facebook :.

alienation and garbage the new message of jehovah’s witnesses.

Fadeaway1962

If that was taking place in a family relationship that would be called domestic abuse which is a criminal offence in many countries and yet JWs view is as spiritual instruction .

And yet while you are experiencing such behaviour constantly you don't notice it even though you feel something it's right , but until you admit to yourself that the king had no clothes ,it's only then you start to see how you were manipulated and controled and start the waking up process.

Abuse of this kind is a learned behaviour ,we probably all did it with our family and people we tried to preach to in the field service , thankfully we can and do unlearn this abusive behaviour and become better people for doing so.

on reddit, a pimo elder talked about the co special meeting with the co about all what’s important, tight pants!

omg we have a pandemic, some have lost their jobs, people are depressed, but let’s stop the brothers from wearing tight pants.

also, metro style haircuts.

Fadeaway1962

So a short back and sides a common haircut growing up as a boy in the 60s &70 s

Omg! The latest Caleb and Sophie video!

by nowwhat? in

for those who think the organization is going more mainstream think again.

so eating a leftover birthday cupcake is as bad a sin as peter betraying jesus!

(see lloyd evans video) .

Fadeaway1962

And yet joining the UN so you can get a library card is ok , riding the wild beast of revelation is not as bad as a wanting to eat a left over birthday cupcake.

Jehovah Will Protect You with Powerful Angels

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

the watchtower—study edition | march 2021. study article 13. jehovah will protect you—how?.

14 we also have the support of myriads of powerful angels.

think of what just one angel can do!

Fadeaway1962

Or protect the victims of child abuse and do something to the perpetrator before they can do anything.

Are Jehovah Witness willing to end studies?

by Maria Nieves in

https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/watchtower-study-october-2020/how-to-conduct-a-bible-study-that-leads-to-baptism-part-two/.

i recently came across the above watchtower article which spoke about conducting bible studies which lead to baptism.

it progressed to say that if the bible study instructor does not see growth within the student or the desire to work towards baptism, then the studies should end.

Fadeaway1962

As I recall a Bible study is if on the first call and you read a scripture then on the return visit you read and briefly discuss another scripture and something on JW.org you can count a study even if on the next visit they stop the discussion, at the end of the month you report a study,

The same will probably be the same with letter writing etc.

That probably account's for the high number of reported studies and the low number progressing to baptism.

Wh a JW Paradise would REALLY be like.

by smiddy3 in

where does one start ?

ok i`ll do my best and you can add some more if you like .. first off, wherever in the world you are that`s where you will stay.why?

because modern day transport as we know it will no longer be.

Fadeaway1962

A world without history , even our own history the music TV shows films and cars etc that we remember as we grew up and to a greater extent the history of our world pyramids and others historical sites and museums , gone forever as they are part of Satan's world .

Today is the last day for JW`s to sign up for the Redress Scheme.? ARC

by smiddy3 in

hi,friends , i doubt that the jehovah`s witnesses will sign up and in one way it is a good thing because it will bring reproach on the name of god and his supposed organization, if the govts.are true to theire word they should name and shame them.

for not signing up.. one of the reasons for not signing up is because they do not share interfaith with other christian religions.. however they seem to have no problem selling their kh`s to christendoms religions .?.

but if any member of the jw`s has any dealings with another church you will be brought before the judicial committee to explain yourself and maybe end up disfellowshipped.. if ,and i don`t beleive there will be any persecution ,but if it did occur it would be because they brought it upon themselves ..

Hopefully the Australian government makes this the last chance for them to join and then backdate the tax exempt status to all the money even the money they moved out off the country.

And a apology to the victims and survivors so they can have a measure of justice.
