I get the love-bomb (we miss you so much) and the guilt-thing (your wife is so sad at the meetings without you) when I bump into them. The last time I was at a meeting, most of the folks were fine, but I got the cold-shoulder from the more self-righteous ones. Where's the love? WWJD?

International Conventions for 2014 - Landover, MD - What is an International Convention?
by insearchoftruth inhave been out of touch for a while, i see that there is an 'international' convention this year in landover, md (fed ex field) and there are no english conventions in either richmond or hampton, va. what is an 'international convention', is it merely a consolidation of all the other conventions meant to whip up some fervor amongst the masses?.

It used to mean among other things that you would have the honor of hosting (approved) delegates from other countries. So think, big group of happy, waving friends from South Korea - some sporting native garb. Probably won't be a lot of delegates travelling from Somalia or Chad.

My First Special Pioneer Assignment
by fulltimestudent inmy first special pioneer assignment.- part 1.. in australia, western civilization is a thin strip of land, that hugs the coast.
all the major cities are on the coast.
i grew up on the east coast of australia where the great dividing range, as its called, runs parallel to the coast, and limits the extension of cities like sydney and brisbane.

On the plus side though fulltimestudent, you have to admit you learned how to take care of yourself under difficult circumstances. If you could make it through that, you can handle anything thrown your way. At least you have been through some sort of trial by fire. Most westerners, would not know how to cope if the TV went off permamently.

If you truly beleive in the flood of noahs Day ,do you think he would have as apathetic as jehovahs witnesses are today in warning people?
by smiddy indo jehovahs witnesses honestly, sincerely beleive that the end of this system of things is just around the corner, and that they have the role of warning all of mankind of what is to befall them .?
so why is their ministry so blasaise ?
knock on the door ,no body comes knock on the door again nobody comes ?

I wonder how many return visits he had in Australia? Forget about not-at-homes... I wonder if he just left tracts (carved in wood)? Maybe the world was just a smaller place back then (everyone lived within 10km of Noah). But if it was, why did JHVH have to make a global flood? Why did all the animals have to die, what did they do wrong?

I would agree with the change thing. Could be sudden, could be like falling down a staircase. Either way, it is coming...

Did they include a section about what if none of the above occur and we have to contend with BAU?
