  what evidence suggests to you that the wt f&ds is actually more like the es of matthew 24?.

  45¶who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?.

  46blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.. .

  The loans were with interest. Seems ran afoul of banking/ loan laws. They changed to a monthly donation which had to be equal or greater. At the same time titles were signed over.

  Any monies over 3 months operating expense are " "voluntarily" donated

  The slave flat out said they can never turn evil. Hang on!

  Legitimately a lot if us are old and crippled. The rest is learning there are better ways to waste time.

  Pornography in the Marriage

  by LostintheFog1999 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the magazine that they are studying in the congregation this month has an article at the back about how pornography in a marriage could damage the relationship.. there's one piece of advice that sounds rather scary, the wt suggests that the couple should "consider asking an elder with whom you are both comfortable to sit in and guide your discussions for a time.".

  how many of you would want an elder present in your home while you and your partner discussed your personal sexual cravings and the type of porn videos being watched?.

  A brother gave the talk about oral& one time. Tall slender wife, did they research? I think so.

  As for discussions with an elder (shouldn't it be 2?), where does foreplay cross the line?

  There is an obsession with breasts, mostly ignoring butts, legs, etc. I'll let you guess, but certain views will swivel my head

  Has anybody ever heard of this in their local area

  i heard of a jw wedding that:.

  (a)wasn’t done in a kh, and was performed by an elder.

  (b)the ceremony was done on a sunday.. i find this surprising for 2 reasons.

  Ceremony and reception at the same place works well. Using a hall for anything related to recreation is forbidden.

  If you do want a KH wedding or funeral, lineup behind regular meetings, CO visit (all 3 or more congregations), assembly, pioneer school and other people wanting ceremonies. Wait 2 or 3 months.

  Universally true. Old horses get shot. No work? No attention. The few visits are after doorto door, not during. Then talk only of the " hope".

  Along with things willed to WT, a few greedy elders will try to get money or things beforehand. I know 3 instances where the " flock" bought things at 5 cents on the dollar, mostly the elders family choosing first.
