  Goes with the post about seeking highly trained lawyers.

  Anyone who looks can see that elders are not independent actors. They cant so much as paint a wall without filling out forms for approval

  after listening to the zoom meetings the past two weeks, i started to wonder, what is the real purpose for such short comments.

  policy for 5 or more years now.

  supposedly, it is so more can comment.

  I like trying to count how many times the person saying the final prayer uses the word “Jehovah"

  Except I run out of fingers. The local record is 26. If I counted right.

  I also count the "great lofty throne", "supreme wisdom, your eminence" etc.

  Also the buzz words like: "last days, critical times, our own understanding, too many to list.

  They seldom mention jesus except at closing or start

  STUDY ARTICLE When a Loved One Leaves Jehovah

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the watchtower—study edition | september 2021. study article 39. when a loved one leaves jehovah.

  2 think how heartbroken jehovah must have been when members of his own angelic family turned their back on him!

  (jude 6) and imagine how hurt he was at seeing his beloved people, the israelites, rebel against him time and again.

  TBK

  They dont even call it a book or watchtower study now. It is a BIBLE study using the (insert publication)

  They were stop timing here for a bit and dinging at 30 seconds. The pointed comment that " that was over" must have dampened participation too

  Statements or Comments Made By JWs That Were WRONG

  jehovah’s witnesses claim to be the only religion that has the truth.

  they claim to be representing god himself.

  can you think of anything that you could use to prove that the witnesses do not have the truth?.

  How Do you Count How Long You Were In "The Truth?"

  by IWant2Leave in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  if you were born in, do you count from the year of your birth, when you gave your first presentation at the door, (i was five),.

  when you became an unbaptized publisher, (i was about 12), or when you dedicated your life to god,(org) and took the plunge?

  what could you have done with all of this time?

  The time taken from doing something else.

  Typical Saturday. Meet, pray, visit, stop to get someone's forgotten bag, buy gas, wait for the leader to show up, knock on an unoccupied door, go to break, then hopefully 2 others will go on a long winded RV while I nap
