where does one begin ?.
jehovah`s witnesses pride themselves as being a bible based religion ,that their beliefs and practices are all bible based ?.
words & phrases jehovah`s witnesses use or have used that are not in the bible.. organization.
The problem is not so much whether a word can be found but how it is applied. Elder is a description of a leader, presumably with some life experience. Not an ass kisser company man. Same for deacon ( ministerial servant ) or older women.
There may well have been a group that took the lead but they earned the position, not self appointed .
i`m just curious as to whether the corona beer sales have plummeted since this coronavirus has spread in different parts of the world .. it wouldn`t surprise me if sales had a nose dive since this outbreak and just wondered if anybody has any information concerning this ?.
word association plays a big part in many peoples lives..
No no no. Toyota did it
they'll write pages and pages of stuff and yet they don't have any idea.. here's a paragraph from their latest speculations on future events, bolding is mine.. a prophecy recorded by ezekiel gives some insight into what may happen during the last days of the king of the north and the king of the south.
if we view the prophecies of ezekiel 38:10-23; daniel 2:43-45; 11:44–12:1; and revelation 16:13-16, 21 as speaking about the same time period and events, it appears that we can expect the following developments.. that's an awful lot of assumptions to make.
what they've done is picked out various scriptures from different parts of the bible and now state that they may or may not be talking about the same events.

we hear how the economy is much healthier now.
are you better off than you were before, or the same or worse?

Better. My retirement fund is making back half of the withdrawal amount. By the time I am 105 it will be gone though. The corona thing will hurt short term investments.
I do have to note that a big DOW also reflects inflation.
Who would've figured a nice chevy costing 75000?

I dont see how privileged communication can be upheld with all the sharing and outside guidance
i remember going door to door in the late 60's with my mother as a 5 or 6 year old.
one time she caught me looking at the wind chimes on a porch.
she told me they had pagan origins, were evil, and were somehow connected to demons.
The noise scares away demons. No mention of pretty noises attracting angels. Maybe we just like random melodies.
what were some of yours?
the big one in our hall was no frontal hugs!
these were generally thought of as inappropriate, only side hugs should be given between sisters and brothers.
