it’s a shame the gov body did a big u turn on vaccines .
if they continue with the rule that only fully vaxed can go back to the hall then i could have stayed on zoom.
but the term fully vaxed is a moving target, if it’s been like six months since your last shot you are just the same as those of us who are unvaxed .
Babylon Deceives All Nations by her sorcery / “pharmakeia.”. Revelation 18:23. “… and all nations were deceived by your sorcery. The Greek word for “sorcery” is “pharmakia” (strongs G5331). The Greek word “pharmakeia” is the origin of the English words Pharmacy, Pharmacist & Pharmaceutical.
Yes. When the GBody promoted the shot (it is not a vaccine) I withdrew even further. Now I watch as those who reluctantly got
the jab get sicker and keep getting covid..
a lot of my ex fellow servants must be now in their seventies, what can you do?.
no children no money no home.
it is so sad.. so many decided not to have children as the end was right around the corner and that was decades ago.
Keep you chin up Mikejw. Try to look at it this way…
You didn’t do anything wrong.
You are still living.
Pat yourself on the back and carry on, YOU, have brought yourself this far. Nobody
else did it. You did it. At least respect that part of your self.
Also consider this: You we’re conned. That is not your fault. You have just been
through a lifetime of incredible learning experiences, upon which you have a very solid platform to base yourself.
Appreciate that. Take time, and acknowledge that the great tribulation could actually be
a spiritual thing. (Not an experience up in an attic - nor down in a bunker).
If that is the case then you have been through the GT!
If you’re in your ‘70s just smile and be thankful that you have already been through one
massive storm and come out better for it. Sit back now and be an observer.
when is the kingdom of god coming?.
on being asked by the pharisees when the kingdom of god was coming, he answered them: “the kingdom of god is not coming with paratherisis; 21 nor will people say, ‘see here!’ or, ‘there!’ for look!
the kingdom of god is in your midst.” —lu 17:20,21. .
Spot on Ozziepost!
Matt 24 v 4. Is never quoted in isolation
Luke 21 v 8. Is avoided even more so…
i don't know about you but as i get older (and older than older) my weight does not remain the same.when i was in my teens i wanted to be a (don't laugh) bodybuilder!i was too naive and over-eager to do it right.
i ate almost nothing.
i was six-four and weighed 160 lbs.yeah: scary.i lifted weights three times a day.yeah, knucklehead.. my firstborn daughter, on the other hand, will turn 52 in august and she has just started a youtube channel on fitnesshttps://www.youtube.com/channel/ucwusgjsr925o4u5sfbkczmg.
Same. I could easily bloat out. I fast most days (stop eating 8pm ish. Skip breakfast except tea or coffee. Don’t eat until noon or 1pm).
Stay away from bread. Very little Potato. I still have a beer or wine or whatever… but they pack the weight. I’m doing July with no alcohol.
sugar is bad for me. I agree. I’ve had a Fitbit for 5 yrs but only put it on now every few months and the for about a week just to keep a track of statistics. Definitely the way to go is walk or do other stuff to burn calories.
Seek out protein rather than Carb and learn about vitamins and minerals.
hi everyone!i'm new here, but have been active on the reddit r\exjw community.
i have just published a website where i analysed the last 50-70 years worth of watchtowers, awake, books, brochures, and kingdom ministries/work books.. i have collected all the data and published it at the link below.
you can also see below an example of genesis.
Brilliant. Speaks volumes. Thank you.

I don’t know what the situation is with the bethelites. I do know of a few in my area who were very reluctant about the injections. They had the injections after the push in the GB updates and the announcements at the mid week meetings about the necessity to get the injection.
I know of 2 who ended up in hospital after being injected and a close family member has had 3 and is affected and says will not be having anymore.
Although meetings have returned, apparently the numbers going to the hall is embarrassingly low.
yes, i am posting again.
i could not for awhile technologically and it is now fixed thanks to simon.
thanks, simon!
Blondie, you’ve been resurrected? Has it been three n a half years?
what “the abomination that causes desolation” mentioned in mathew 24:15 means could be understood only by close followers of jesus because it was part of his personal discussion with them.
by stopping to greet those whom they consider as “their enemies” jws are identifying themselves as “pagans,” according to jesus.
(mathew 5:43-48) thus they cannot correctly understand what the abomination that causes desolation” that would appear as part of signs of “last days.”.
And yes. They feel the King of the South is USA and Great Britain because they (WT) are in their own eyes the Centre of everything.
The Kings of the North and South is not necessarily a physical, geographical thing since Jesus spoke Spiritually.
Another thing I need to do is look into the Ukraine thing and the Hooks in the Jaws, the bait.... The Ukraine has interesting significance to the Physical land of Israel.

The basis Jesus judges is by wether we feed a hungry one. Visit a sick one. Help a needy one .. ordinary human actions an love of neighbour, golden rule type stuff! Being don to Christ’s brothers
All WT articles around that,(Matt 25) have “Christ’s brothers” being the “Faithful and Discreet Slave” and mankind is judged on how individuals treat 8 men living in luxury in NY State!
That is another elephant in the room that some close to me refuse to discuss.

So, by extension, it could be discussed, that the “Abomination that causes desolation” is the issue and distraction or focus to - Jehovah’s Universal Sovereignty - a thought and concept perhaps an abomination (hateful) thing to God.
When the reality of that is grasped, well, we know what we do.
