  Watchtower Study on 5th December.

  by Lost in the fog in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the wt study for this week is all about disfellowshipping.

  in an early paragraph it said "think how heartbroken jehovah must have been when members of his own angelic family turned their back on him!".

  however when you think about it, when this happened according to the wt teaching, jehovah still engaged with satan in the heavens (book of job) and had conversations with him about what was going on in the earth.. so why do the wt org practice shunning when jehovah god obviously didn't?.

  How about the WT leaving jehovah if they ever were connected.

  Just started, I'm waiting for the " great lengths and time spent by the elders" comments

  TRICKY WORDS and why not to use them

  by Terry in

  tricky words .

  perfectly good words go unused in writing and speaking.

  their meaning isn't clear and the eye is 'tricked' by similarity to other words or sounds.. .

  Instead of avoiding, how about being an amateur etymologist? You know, a person who sticks pins through words.🙂

  Child pornography should NOT be automatically handled by a judicial committee

  by pistolpete in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  new information added to the "shepherd the flock elder's book" .

  they have updated their policy on viewing child pornography.. from a congregation standpoint it is not viewed as child sex abuse and is something that should not be automatically handled by a judicial committee.

  it states that a person viewing child pornography should be strongly counseled.

  I love children. Thinking of doing sexual things to them is repugnant.

  As for viewing porn, everyone has or is lying. And nothing like being an observer in a participant sport.

  Thanks for the heads up. I didn't " study" this week. Maybe a good day to drive to the country.

  Wife always starts a rant about how we should obey, then gets over it. Our spiritual discussion with df family is me telling them the latest bazaar new light (not in agreement with it).

  My son lit into the hypocrit elder who led his kangaroo court. That man left physical and mental marks on his kids all of whom left.

  The gun is an Italian replica. No clue as to the exact machanism. Mine has:

  1. hammer down, firing pin into the primer

  2. A notch that holds the hammer just clear of the pin, trigger caught in a recess where it wont pull (easily broken out by a blow)

  3. Half cock, the cylinder will rotate to load ir inspect

  4. Full cock, my big gun has less than 2 pounds trigger pull, very smooth and light.

  Neither the first orc second notch are fool proof or strong enough to pass a drop test. Full cock is supposed to be light for firing.

  So, Baldwin thumbed the hammer enough to roll the cylinder, then dropped it. Aim is irrelevant

  Old light was it had to he heterosexual intercourse, later softened to include sodomy and homosexual. And the innocent mate could forgive blocking a WT sanctioned marriage.

  Still a person can not be appointed with a living ex unless the adultery is proven. I have seen several elders put back in while the ex wife was still warm.

  Did you at one time Believe-that you were not going to die. Does your still in JW spouse still believe?

  by pistolpete in

  2. beliefs

  this magazine says it all!.

  and many of the older jws believed at one point in their life that they would make it through the great tribulation and into the 1000 year reign of christ without dying.

  which is why so many jws stayed in so long.. is the main reason why jws ignore all the child abuse, the end of door to door service, and the closing of kingdom hall for almost two years----because they still believe they will not die?.

  Did the gun have a transfer bar? I have two 3 screws that will not pass the infamous drop test. You load 1, skip 1, load 4, full cock, hammer down, empty chamber. A novice can count wrong or fail to cock the revolver and let the hammer down. You would still have to drop the gun or thumb the hammer (half cock would catch) to get it to fire.

  It still comes down to having a live round and someone behind the camera.

  Cops are not firearms experts but are known for negligent discharges.

  jwdotorg pats themselves on the back yet again with the latest article praising jw news reports.

  among the reviews one sister is quoted as saying: "i appreciate that i can trust the news on jw .org.

  it is reliable and objective.".
