  charity is lacking from the house of god.

  i remember reading once about some young pioneer sisters who needed emergency accommodation and where turn away from brooklyn because they weren’t special pioneers.

  charity begins at home..

  so this week's midweek meeting video about stumbling others has lett spouting and gurning rubbish again.. if you can't take the whole 9 minutes go from 5:50 to get the context and 6:45 for the "beard" mention.. https://youtu.be/ezv1ici5cwo.

  oh, well - at least they shoot themselves in the foot with this doublespeak.

  Dear Governing Body your clean shaven faces are not only scaring me but they are genuinely stumbling me from accepting the lord, can you please grow some stubble so as to reflect the image of god.

  Blood Issue.......something for thought, where is the logic.

  by CovertsadJW in

  2. medical

  i have yet to read about the contradictions in the jw teachings on blood, but i have personally witnessed one.

  i am a medical professional and have seen hemopure administered for an active jw who did refuse a blood transfusion.

  its not fda approved here, but given in special life saving circumstances.

  The blood issue is like the 1914 issue, they are totally trapped because of overprinting their 18 th century bullshit . If they change 1914 or the blood issue there honestly would be an exodus . The blood change would open the floodgates of litigation and I truly believe a bereaved parent of a child lost to blood might want some of big Tony’s blood on his door post.

  Is it a GOOD thing to be a sheep, or to be wheat??

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the bible passage at luke 15 speaks about being a "sheep who is lost".

  the shepherd looks for and brings the sheep back into the fold.. the passage at matthew 13 speaks about the righteous being like wheat - kept separate from the weeds.. but, there is an inherent problem with both passages!

  for what reason are the sheep saved?

  it just took me by surprise.

  i remember him from a decade or so ago.

  he came up with gems like, “weddings are for women, they are not necessary.” also, “if you want to be truly happy, marry an ugly woman.”.

  I would love to meet a CO who couldn’t run away. I would inform the ladies beside him that they aren’t allowed at his house to eat cheese. Then tell them he is a hate preacher who only weeks ago told an audience that destruction outside their church is the only solution for out planet. It’s easy to preach hate to right wingers but his coworkers might not be so receptive.

  Let's compare the sayings of Jesus and the modern day Governing Body

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  imagine yourself still sitting at a kingdom hall meeting and turn to the book of mark 7: 21-23. the sayings of jesus are really profound.

  the scripture makes you think, reflect, enters your heart and produces results.. today, you have your modern day governing body ( who supposedly are the mouthpiece for jesus and jehovah and provide spiritual food for the 8 million followers).

  if jehovah really sends his holy spirit upon these seven men, is this silly and petty message they can come up with?

  Don’t compare the sayings compare the lifestyle . One is homeless one lives in 5star accommodation. One gets fed by strangers the other has meals delivered. One walked dusty roads the other shows pictures of dusty roads in Africa. One cried at the compassion for his neighbors the other printed a pamphlet showing his neighbors getting slaughtered by celestial powers . One fed multitudes without thought of conversion the other would certainly not share his meal with a homeless man.
