The Great Crowd!

by A Believer in

notice the 144000 can be counted and they all come from israel.. 9 after this i saw, and look!

a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues,*+ standing before the throne and before the lamb, dressed in white robes;+ and there were palm branches in their hands.+ .

this great crowd, no man was able to number, and they come from every nation!

Steve2 The light keeps getting brighter and more will be known.

I know that has to explain all the flip-flops and changes. Why just the other day I got up and thought I saw a car parked across the street. Then as the sun slowly came up it turned out it wasn't a car, it was bicycle. But surprise, surprise, as it got even brighter out it turned out it was really the neighbors pontoon house boat. Then when the sun finally broke over the horizon I was really enlightened to see that it wasn't a car, it wasn't a bicycle, it wasn't a pontoon house boat...it was a dead squirrel!

I haven't read the whole book but I thing Jehovah is showing someone what will happen and he is telling the account.

Okay, I'll bite. A believer you quote scripture, yet you are dead wrong! Go back and read with some measure of intelligence these words in Revelation 1: 1, "A revelation by Jesus Christ, which God gave him, to show his slaves the things that must shortly take place."

God may have given this to Jesus, but it was JESUS who gave it to an angel, who gave it to John. More likely John just got a hold of some real potent poppy seed though.

Kingdumb songs, will they someday make the top 25 Religious Hymns???

by James Mixon in

amazing grace have been around since 1779, how great thou art 1885,holy holy holy 1826, be thou my vision (ireland) 6th century, all creatures of god and king (italy)1225. so you think one day we will hear a kingdumb song playing over the radio.

you would think surely jehovah want the world to be familiar with his hymns.... maybe they have instructed the rf to only sing their songs in the kh, only for special folks..

What Is "Counsel" and How Does It Work?

by Cold Steel in

yes, i know what "counsel" means, but it clearly has an esoteric meaning.

in the academy award winning bunker video series, the noble brother brown admits he didn't handle it well when elder ben (who was a junior elder...uh, yes, that's right) gave him counsel about a talk he'd given.

not enough use of scriptures.

FedUpJW

Is this a common practice -- giving unsolicited advice to people?

Common practice? No. It is an unwritten requirement in order to be a "good" JDub. You must run around looking for any and all excuses to jump down the throat of your fellow "brother" or "sister" with unsolicited, unwarranted, unwanted, needless advice in the ever present agenda of control.

Sorry assholes!!

Special Talk During the Meeting Today About the Bad Press in Canada

by RobertT18 in

i was invited to a congregation in ontario, canada today and as soon as the meeting opened the brother conducting the meeting said there was a very important statement coming from the borg.

this talk replaced the two last parts of "living as a christian" section.

he started reading a letter from the borg about how much they loved us.

FedUpJW

I heard about this letter too. It would seem that some on other sites are completely deluded and brainwashed into believing nothing bad could ever happen in the bOrg. This is just one of the comments I recently "mined".

" With the Royal Commission taking up the subject again in March things could heat up again. Rest assured Jehovah will ensure that honest hearted ones are not deceived by the bias of the media and Royal Commission."

I have taken to asking why it is Satan and media bias when it brings to light pedophiles in the JDubs, and God doing when it is the same issue with the Catholic church? They just get the deer in the headlights look and change the subject.

HYPOCRITES!!!

Is this something new?

Are other kingdom halls going to have these video cameras for live streaming? I recognize the one in the photo. Decades ago I was on the framing crew at this one.

Showing Kindness To Strangers

by FedUpJW in

i feel pretty foolish after reading the drivel in today's wt.

here i was operating under the impression that showing kindness to strangers was something that one did unselfishly.

boy was i wrong!

FedUpJW

And the WT conductor just made this statement, "Next weeks lesson will go along with this weeks quite nicely. "Maintain Your Spiritual Heath While in a Foreign Field. I am sure it will motivate many of us to want to move to another area. Then we can experience the kindness shown to a stranger at a new KH."

My thought? Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out, IDIOT!

FedUpJW

I feel pretty foolish after reading the drivel in today's WT. Here I was operating under the impression that showing kindness to strangers was something that one did unselfishly. Boy was I wrong! Here are just a few of the statements about how to show kindness to strangers that are going to be slurped up today.

"...warm welcome at the Kingdom Hall."

"Jehovah is equally concerned about people... who attend meetings..."

"...loving concern for fellow believers from other lands..."

"...neighbors, fellow workers, schoolmates make derogatory remarks about those of another background."

"We can show kindness...by warmly greeting them at the Kingdom Hall."

"To help others feel at home in the congregation...why not accept them just the way they are?"

"We rejoice that Jehovah in his...kindness...has allowed people from all backgrounds...to associate with us."

So there we have it. Kindness is shown by getting people in the door of the KH. No one else is kind but rather they always speak derogatorily of others. Is there any wonder that I am FedUp?
