  Is the door to door preaching work not the primary focus anymore?

  by pistolpete in

  2. bible

  a few months back, one of my uncles who was an elder, asked the co, why jehovah would allow the door to door preaching work, to come to an abrupt end.

  this was when my uncle was starting to have serious doubts about the organization.. the co told him to be patient, and hang in there, because the governing body was on top of things and in time would explain what is happening regarding the preaching work.. my uncle asked; “what do you mean?”.

  co said; “focus on the wt study articles in the coming months” .

  Not a trumpet, kazoo.

  We could have told them years the dtd was fruitless. And they chose the most inopportune time to go, Sat morning.

  How on earth can WT lawyers continue to believe WT has God’s backing, when they see all the deception play out in Court.

  here is a post on reddit from mark and kimmy o’ donnell, from the crusaders documentary,.

  ask us anything.. mr. o'donnell gives his assessment of why wt lawyers continue to defend the child sex abuse cases that the organization continues to fight, even though they see firsthand the deception, the lies, the withholding of facts and dirty tactics used in court.

  by an organization that claims to be god's earthly representative, and the only one to hold the truth.

  Hard spot. Giving talks on a lie would be the hardest. I simply was a no show for the old #5 when it was about 1914 right after the new light.

  I am a nobody and am not even asked to help with snow shoveling or chsnge a flat for a widow. Things I could do as a humanitarian.

  Some trade unions give good training and set sr standards of workmanship. Others (teachers, janitors) take money. The other side is many employers are crooked cheapskates too. I was once denied a promotion because of seniority and the man put in didn't have the smarts to learn the math and " feel" for the job.

  I have heard there was a union movement in the factory when Knorr ran it. It got squelched in a hurry.

  Where are the JWs on cross dressers?

  so if a man lets say is heterosexual, married and happy but likes to in the privacy of his own home wear women's cloths and his wife is ok with it.

  i know a person could just shut their mouth and who would know but i am talking about jw who is very concerned about telling the truth to the dubbers.

  my guess is it would not be a dfing matter but they would not be a ms or elder.

  Remember the do it yourself dramas? There were instructions to wear your wifes panty hose for color and use some makeup.

  One brother went all in, hose, rouge, eye shadow, mascara. Then batted his eyelashes at other brothers.

  You have to ask? This is the outfit that will not allow slack suits for women as that is mans garb. There is always the brazen conduct catchall or deviant behaviour

  Well they posted. Excerpt says it all:

  Despite the challenging situation, most of the congregations in the affected area were able to hold their weekend meeting via videoconference on Sunday, August 15. Also, the brothers and sisters were able to watch the Sunday morning program of the “Powerful by Faith!” Convention.

  Occasionally necessary:

  Prepare talk for ministry school

  Circuit serpent visit so extra meetings for encouragement

  Circuit assembly 2x

  District assembly

  Hall cleaning

  And don't listen to Led Zeppelin, or watch a pg 13 shootem up movie, or one with a bikini
