  WATCHTOWER IS WATERING DOWN BEDROOM SURVEILLANCE?

  by raymond frantz in

  the study article 2 from the january 2025 watchtower study edition titled “husbands, honor your wife” represents a marked shift from the earlier, stricter watchtower stance on marital intimacy among jehovah’s witnesses.

  this article’s language feels more relaxed, with paragraph 17 and its footnote stating, “the bible does not provide details as to what sexual practices between a husband and a wife should be considered clean or unclean.

  No-zombie

  No, but never elder.

  40 or so years ago there were several hot shot couples (wife and I were not part of them) who married and then divorced within a few months. Every time the gossip was husband turned queer. That was when WT articles condemned oral and anal and specified these were practices of homosexuals and not for married couples. My hunch is that was the justification; along with jealousy over some of the hotter wives. Remember this was a time of naive sisters marrying men who worked construction where things like this were mentioned by the worldly crews.

  realistically, between now and 2034, what do you think watchtower will change or reform to appear more mainstream?

  what business opportunities do you see watchtower getting involved in?.

  my predictions are as follows: .

  I am getting old so it better be soon. Already the tribulation looks problematic because I assume my meds will be in short supply.

  I know a brother who is 90 who was never supposed to start kindergarten.

  We all face the poverty caused by lack of education and planning

  The webelows took advantage by missing meetings, blanking cameras, no door to door. Still trying to regain control.

  No physical congregation would mean even fewer and smaller contributions

  Attended JW funeral today

  never miss a marketing opportunity—even at a funeral.

  funerals aren’t the first place you’d expect marketing.

  but jehovah’s witnesses know how to turn every moment into an opportunity to share their message.. during funerals, they weave in their teachings of hope and resurrection, offering comfort and, at the same time, presenting their beliefs to attendees who may not be part of the faith.

  They read and expand every point on the outline. Adam n eve lost perfection, the ransom got it back, a resurrection us promised. There that took 40 seconds. REAL favorite song, short prayer; pizza and beer at some unspecified spot

  Sunday talk in disguise. So and so wanted me to tell you---what he believed, study, attend meetings, get baptized, so you can see him again

  dismal song from the as approved list, and maybe a potluck somewhere else because halls forbid social events.

  There maybe will be greeting seldom seen acquaintancesfor old times sake

  1/25 WT: Oral and Anal sex are a go - if she's ok with it

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  he will not pressure her to engage in sexual acts that make her feel uncomfortable, that are demeaning, or that bother her conscience..... the bible does not provide details as to what sexual practices between a husband and a wife should be considered clean or unclean.

  a christian couple must make decisions that reflect their resolve to honor jehovah, to please each other, and to maintain a clean conscience.

  generally speaking, a couple would not discuss with others this intimate aspect of their marriage..

  And crowd 3 congregations into a school gym. If at the hall leave in a hurry so the second group can come in; or if the second stay up we'll past bedtime.

  If you feel the necessity The actual commemoration takes 5 minutes without the windy talk or gathering (2 or 3?) in a formal setting.
