  How many "leave the truth" because of the behaviour of harsh elders?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  just wondering how many are assisted to wake up after experiencing harsh treatment from "the loving shepherds of the congregation"?.

  perhaps some were starting to wake up, and such behaviour or treatment gave them the push to leave?.

  as jesus supposedly said "come to me all who are toiling and loaded down, and i will refresh you.

  Does anyone under the age of 25 know what KFC stands for? (What about WT or JW?)

  as we have seen, the society has so smoothly rolled out the rebranding of the organization in just a few short years!.

  (in fact, i remember a thread post here a few years back, where it was mentioned that all halls are going to get the jw.org signs on them.

  it was initially laughed off and doubted) https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/279409/jw-org-signs-put-on-all-kingdom-halls-new-directive.

  As for abbreviations JWs have always loved them

  Whenever some self-important asshat refers oh so smugly to the C.O...I interrupt them and with my best puzzled tone of voice ask, "How long have JW's had a Commanding Officer?"

  so ... situation:.

  a baptized married couple, with no privileges that we know of, have opened their home to 2 unmarried regular pioneers because of the pioneers' financial issues (limited income).. - husband works from home.

  - wife doesn't work and stays home or in service.

  I hope the JDubs start banning single males and females from staying in the same hotels at assemblies and conventions too then.

  Can't have those sex-crazed Dubbies fornicating after hours, probably in the hotel lounge and the hallways too y'know.

  “IF YOU were asked, ‘What are the key teachings of your faith?’ what would you say?.... You would likely mention your belief in Jesus Christ...”

  I may be alone in this observation, but I have noticed it seems that whenever WT asks a question then begins their answer with the words, "You would likely....", it ALWAYS means they are going to try to convince you that YOUR answer is WRONG!

  I may have to try to peruse this WT to see if that observation still holds true.

  Today's Text - Justifying The Increase Of Annointed Ones!

  by Divergent in

  thursday, august 31. jehovah knows those who belong to him.—2 tim.

  2:19.. in recent years, we have seen an increase in the number of those partaking at the memorial of christ’s death.

  that trend contrasts with the decrease in the number of partakers that we saw for many decades.

  *** w16 January p. 19 pars. 9-10
  Simply put, by means of his holy spirit, God makes it clear to that person that he is invited to become a future heir in the Kingdom arrangement.—1 Thess. 2:12.
  10 Those who have received this special invitation from God do not need another witness from any other source. They do not need someone else to verify what has happened to them. Jehovah leaves no doubt whatsoever in their minds and hearts.
  

  The number of partakers includes those who mistakenly think that they are anointed. Others may have mental or emotional problems that lead them to believe that they will rule with Christ in heaven.

  From the SAME WT. So which is it WT governing body? Either they received this "invitation" from God himself through HS and they do not need your witness or verification and YOU are wrong, or they are wrong and are mentally screwed up and God's HS really doesn't matter! It amazes me that there are still nitwits who slurp this swill up and call it "food at the proper time"!

  Repository for JW "experiences" with Hurricane Harvey

  by sir82 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it's only a matter of time of course..... jw rumor mills will start up soon, with stories of how jws were "first on the scene" as the flood waters receded..... how the red cross and/or us national guard and/or doctors without borders and/or [you name it] were marveling at just how "organized" the jws are..... how zealous jws were pulling their trolleys thru ankle-deep water to "offer comfort" to victims, by giving them - sandwiches?

  bottled water?

  to offer them comfort by giving them 16 page "magazines" to read in their spare time..... so as the stories start to come in, you can "deposit" those little nuggets of bs here.. once collected, we'll wrap them in a pretty bow and flush them away where other instances of pure manure go..

  "A city official was overheard saying that 'only you people give evidence of being Gods true people'" But of course no name will be provided to prove this.

  What is all of us that are still fading for whatever reasons were to begin emailing this to all the brothers/sisters we still have contact with, with some gushing words of wonderment about how wonderful the "spiritual paradise" is?

  Then sit back and see how long it takes to get a life of it's own, maybe even show up on an ASSembly?

  Kingdom Halls open to hurricane flood victims??

  by Sugar Shane in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  there are other threads dealing with jws actions, or non-actions in response to the houston flooding.

  i started this thread to find out specifically if kingdom halls, or assembly halls are being used to help victims.

  not just other jws, but innocent victims of all walks: men, women, children & pets.

  Could, but probably won't, I expect.

  Probably? Definitely will not. After all the KH is for meetings to indoctrinate the members, not for any genuine helping of strangers.

  Of course I may be wrong. They may open up the KH front door so that some pioneer in super good standing can get a cart and set up, just in case some needy person shows up, then they can throw a Watchtower at them and wish them to "go in peace, keep warm and well fed"!

  Pretty sure there will be war soon, having a hot headed loon in charge of NK and another one as POTUS makes it almost inevitable.

  Yeah, too bad the US didn't have another Øbama as POsTUS. He could go bow to Kimmie offer an apology and everything would be unicorns and rainbows.
