  An elder with only one testicle

  by stillin in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i happen to be one of very few people who know of this condition that the man has.

  he had an accident several years ago with some power equipment.

  leviticus 21:20 commands that no man present the bread at the temple with damaged testicles... so?.

  Before my appointment Exodus I thought that the Special Talk was being given for the first time ever via Branch Tie in. That no local elders will be giving the 2018 Special Talk?

  Perhaps the outline is out there and was published for congs that for some reason cant tie in to the mothership.

  Session #8: "Bullet in the Head"

  so at the phd today with my wife and me, and in slowly getting to the heart of matters (like peeling an onion if you ask me), the dialogue in part went like this: .

  phd: if it came down to it, would you take a bullet in the head instead of giving up membership in your organization?

  wife: absolutely, i would die for my faith.

  So at the PhD today with my wife and me, and in slowly getting to the heart of matters (like peeling an onion if you ask me), the dialogue in part went like this:

  PhD: If it came down to it, would you take a bullet in the head instead of giving up membership in your organization?

  Wife: Absolutely, I would die for my faith.

  PhD: No, that's not what I asked. You can keep your faith in God and your personal relationship with him, its yours to have, hold, love, and cherish. What I asked is would you take a bullet in the head vs. renouncing membership in the WT organization?

  Wife: Absolutely, I would die for what I would believe.

  PhD: What about you Brian? Same question.

  Brian: Where do I sign?

  I married SUCH an intelligent woman. She knows how to love from the heart, how to care for and protect me and the kids. She is giving and unselfish. A deep thinker. Thrifty. Loves music, nature, wine, good food, the peace of sitting at the front of the plane vs. the back, walks on the beach, making things grow...I mean the list goes on and on. But she would would watch her family be executed vs. renouncing her membership in a 100 year old man made organization.

  Good god almighty, somebody help me wrap my angry mind around this.

  to the person who reported me to the elders from here - thank you for making me be able to leave the organisation a whole lot easier and sooner than i'd planned.

  you did me a huge favour 😊.

  Did You Go To Meetings in Very Inclement Weather?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  living in new england means having lots of snow and cold.

  elders were very reluctant to cancel or reschedule a meeting due to the weather.

  i lived 3 towns away from the kingdom hall and if it was icy and treacherous my vote would always be to cancel the meeting....and forget about rescheduling!.

  We cancel meetings at the THREAT of inclement weather.

  Our sister congregation, same KH, jokes at us for the amount of meetings we cancel in a year. Love it.

  Roads are wet and temp going all the way down to 33F. Better cancel.

  I just feel bad when all the DF folks and older ones who don't get the cancellation emails and text messages show up dressed and pressed to a cold and wet locked door.
