  Normal Family Relations Continue...My Arse....

  by HiddenPimo in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i think that the big issue here is the double standard based on the location of the family members - if they are 'immediate' meaning they live at home in the same dwelling under the same roof then it's ok but if you are like me and living on your own, your family will absolutely avoid contact with you as that is the real jw policy..the old canada court trial and recent swedish news are totally out of context and the jw attorneys are complete tools and filthy liars....

  Dont forget that if yiu can pawn a 15 yo off on an uncle so much the better. My story was that. It meant the last influence I had ( i still pretty much believed and wanted my son back in) was gone. But everyone.congratulated me on getting rid of him. Fooled them, we still see him and minister to his mental quirks

  Is this something new?

  by Butyoucanneverleave in

  just heard from a friend who keeps in touch with the jw's.

  a person who has been studying found out some things on line about the witnesses and decided to not get baptized and stopped attending the meetings.

  she lives with a witness.

  Maybe " marked" as a bad associate. They never announce disfellowshipped as such. She may confuse the terms. I know of a woman who came " in" trying for a certain man, ten announced as no longer being part of the congregation, but not by name. those os not in the know had some gossipping to do to figure it out

  how do you perceive God ?

  by stan livedeath in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  what i'm trying to do is ask what theists think god is like.. also--why is he invisible.. how big is he ?.

  in fact--why is god a he--not a she.

  or is he / she hermaphrodite ?.

  The arguments about the construct of English get old.

  As for God he would be in another dimension we cannot understand. No one ever found keys because god wanted them to. There seems to be a disinterest in the goings on here in any matter

  Unique JW Phrases 101

  by Solzhenitsyn in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  what unique to jws phrases do you remember?

  something fun for those of us taught to speak an entirely unique and pure language.

  there have been posts in the past in this forum but perhaps some have new ones after having kept up with jehovah's chariot as the light gets brighter.

  The talks and songs are entitled, never named, called or

  Cleaned up means he shaved ( and what an ugly mug)

  Appropriate attire

  KHConf - I had no idea how big it has become!

  by sir82 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if you are a jw in the us or canada, you probably already know about "khconf".

  it is a business that has been set up (presumably by some jws somewhere) that supplies call-in numbers and teleconferencing for shut-ins to listen to kingdom hall meetings.. they have their own website: www.khconf.com.. .

  what i didn't know is how much they've spread!

  New directions are for all halls to use KHC. So you can be sure there is a rebate

  If anyone ever makes the claim that they don't focus on Money ALL the time...

  by HiddenPimo in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i saw this mentioned on reddit but no link - i found the article form this weeks bible study..... in the “congregation bible study” part of the meeting this week there was a part that said and i quote: “only jehovah god and his son can receive someone into the heavenly kingdom or the paradise on earth under that kingdom.

  we should diligently cultivate friendship with them by using what material riches we have in supporting kingdom interests”.

  November 2019 Watchtower (Would love to hear the comments in the hall)

  by pleaseresearch in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  from the november 2019 watchtower study edition.. how many of you would like to know what the brothers and sisters would respond to this question.

  also, if you went into a hall how would you like to respond to the question.. 8. how should we respond to lies?.

  8 satan, “the father of the lie,” uses those under his control to spread lies about jehovah and about our brothers and sisters.

  What if the lies are actually true? On matters that I have opinions on I can and will discuss( not scream and argue) the point and if I cannot present a reasonable explanation I have to examine my own stand

  Watchtower ships

  by Sektenkult in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  hi there, i found out yet about the ship's which our holy stock company watchtower had in paraguay, el pionero uno, the ship el pionero dos and el pionero tres.

  all three have been built by jehovah's witnesses themselves and the first 2 ships have been sold with 100% interest.

  i am now interested if anyone of you heard if watchtower does the same in other countries, like the philippines, venezuela or belize, building ships for free by the cult members and selling them years later profitable.

  They built boats to travel to islands, navigate rivers to preach. Same for planes. The rationale being it was safer to use a larger vessel than private small boats, single engine planes etc. Living quarters too. Selling before maintainence gets high, or need changes makes sense. Like e everything they do it ends up being a cash cow and no one catches on

  The infamous WT article "Why Has God Been So Patient?"

  by days of future passed in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i went to my sister's house because she was cleaning out the garage and she thought i must have tons of stuff left there.

  i didn't but there was a box of unplaced mags in one.

  i pulled out one when i got home and it was this one.. i'm sure that if i had read it when it came out, i would have felt that the wt had feelings of sadness over these children.
