my lovely d.i.l.
heard of her fathers passing this morning.both her parents and siblings have shunned her for over 22 years.. about 1 week ago her mother notified her by e-mail that her father had cancer and was not expected to live much longer.of course they had known for a long time that he had terminal cancer.. last week my d.i.l.
did ring her father and spoke with him.. the only other time they contacted my d.i.l.
Smiddy, your D.I.L. can hold her head up high, whereas her family members should hang theirs in shame! So much for the JW's perverse thinking of "necessary business."
The only way that their evil thinking & actions will hit them between the eyes is if they ever muster the courage to critically examine the WTBTS and "pull back the curtain" on the org.
not sure if this was covered as i could not find anything on it but talking to my son he tells me one of the gb had a talk telling them this is a sign of the last days.
have the jw's being pressured into talking to relatives and friends to bring them back into the fold before the end of the system blah blah blah?
the reason why i ask is my son was saying his mother has being on his case the last few weeks and then two days ago i got a telephone message from my sister, that hasn't spoke to me in 4 years, asking how i am doing.
Yes WP, the "loving elders" - you know, those Christian men who allegedly care for the flock - they had to be instructed by the Warwick charlatans to go out and look for the 'lost sheep' from their congregations.
The blind leading the blind!
hi need some help with the teachings regarding the 4type horsemen and the virus.
i'm 17 going to be 18 in six months.
i am a running start student and trying to find the best way to move out after i graduate next year to continue.
Hi Wagurl, you'd be amazed how many JW's will tell you different stories about how "the end" is going to start. Don't let their wishful thinking play on your mind and get you down.
You have a P.M. Hope you become like the rest of us here - awakened and free.

Memorial Talk from Australia -

At 23 minutes 00 seconds, the speaker says who are God's sons/Christ's brothers.
According to the Bible, he's got it wrong:
(Matthew 12:50) whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.”
(Matthew 13:38) The field is the world; as for the fine seed, these are the sons of the kingdom;
(Matthew 25:40) To the extent that YOU did it to one of the least of these my brothers, [Christians] YOU did it to me.
(Mark 3:35) Whoever does the will of God, this one is my brother and sister and mother.”
(Luke 8:21) In reply he said to them: “My mother and my brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.”
(John 1:12,13) However, as many as did receive him, to them he gave authority to become God’s children.........
(Rom. 8:14) For all who are led by God’s spirit, these are God’s sons.
(1 John 5:1) Every one who believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God..........(RSV)
At 24 minutes 45 seconds, Ephesians 1:18 is read from the Silver Sword*, in order to remind the sheep and to reinforce the org's dogma of a 2-tier Christian congregation; “He has enlightened the eyes of your heart, so that you may know to what hope he called you,.....” - inferring different hopes!
Does the Bible offer more than one hope to Christians? In the same letter - at Ephesians 4:4-6, the apostle Paul – addressing all Christians - said this, “One body there is, and one spirit, even as YOU [Christians] were called in the one hope to which YOU were called...”
*Every other Bible translation follows the original Greek by translating it as “....what is the hope of His calling...”
to quote the national institue of allergy and infectious diseases: "there are hundreds of coronaviruses, most of which circulate among such animals as pigs, camels, bats and cats.
sometimes those viruses jump to humans—called a spillover event—and can cause disease.

it’s cognac.
couldn’t sign-in for some reason so i created a new account.
just was wondering what’s going on with the memorial this year cause my kids father wants to have them during that time.
No emblems necessary if no one in the house is of the 'anointed' class.

the bbc isn't even covering this story - it's merely publishing the front page of a newspaper which is!
why not bbc?.
The hole gets deeper: The First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon states twice that the Chief Medical Officer "made a mistake."! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-scotland-52097221
She did not make a mistake! On successive weekends, she deliberately and premeditatedly broke the laws which she has been force-feeding to the Scottish people sanctimoniously from her TV podium, alongside the First Minister - who has now shot herself in the foot by declaring that the hypocrite can keep her job!
How silly Ms. Sturgeon - many who have made sacrifices will not forget this act of cronyism.
gorby's brother in law came by the porch and told "the conventions are cancelled".
we knew already but responded surprised.
"it will be recorded and showed at stream.
"The only good convention is a dead convention, Kincaid!"
