Our Spiritual Heritage of Failed Expectations
by neat blue dog inlast sunday's watchtower tells the story of a man who:.
was baptized in 1908 at the age of 20. he was very confident that he would soon receive his reward.
in fact, when he proposed marriage in 1911, he told his prospective bride, pearl: “you know what is going to happen in 1914. if we are going to get married, we better do it soon!” did this christian couple give up the race for life when they did not receive their heavenly reward in 1914?

The sad part is you can find and join this site, get responses but it is hard or impossible to join something like JW talk. The org site has meeting times and locations IF you can navigate " the best and easiest to use site" ever made.

Probably stoned. The value of a girl was as property or bargaining chip
Some think she was indeed sacrificed

and instead of making due, the org.

Thanks for info. My bewilderment at how many people it takes to do disney/ Pixar which are high quality
Soap opera? More cartoons? You can be sure there will not be any plain old entertainment or documentaries or how to do. How about a science one on how bristlecone pines survived the flood

How many does Pixar, Disney, or any commercial studio employ? Seems to me 1000 is a lot. Does this mean the stick figures are done for?
It could be time for caleb n Sophia to have a bonus baby in the family spoiling plans to be need greaters in choleraland
Or start Lego animations, look what one man accomplishes

A big BS on the walking 20 miles to meeting. I looked it up, a soldier ( not elderly couple) marched 15 miles a day, 20 or 30 forced march; the Romans did 22 in training
Wonder if I have the gumption to comment that they would have to left at 6 or 7 am, then had to spend the night or walk in the dark to get home by mid morning
Goes with crossing crocodile infested rivers and the other stories

"This is Where They Lived Happily Ever After Begins"
by The Bethelite ini saw this sign (i'm sure the bride must have bought it) at a wedding rehearsal dinner yesterday.. yes, the smiling bride was there ordering her soon to be groom around as they were setting up their party decorations.
i'm sure today october 5th will would be the happiest day of their young lives.. have you ever noticed that many movies end at the wedding ceremony?
because for the vast majority of marriages that is the best it ever gets!

Hope they adapt to the changing circumstances. A well matched couple will get through everything
No need to be down on all marriages, even though some do fail
