  Circuit visit elders meeting

  by Saltheart Foamfollower in

  first some context to this post.

  historically the elders meeting with the circuit overseer has had the following format : outline for meeting including ministerial servants then, after they have been dismissed, discussion of local issues.

  the last visit there was an additional outline for the elders only, the notorious "gender blurring" discussion.. you might wonder what is being discussed this time round, so here you are:.

  The CO has an outline that they follow but they also tackle local issues thus the CO visit meeting with the elders may be different in each cong...

  morning warship - he was the only restraint and i'm not saying that lightly.

  i know there are a dozen others here who were in bethel back in the early 2000's who know what i'm talking about.

  he actually kept me thinking this was jehovah's org because of his sincerity as if the holy spirit was operating in him.

  I didn't know Dan but John Barr I knew as well as his sister as I was in the same cong as her and I visited NY a few times and John Barr always made sure we visited him for the afternoon.

  A seriously genuine, honest, hard working man who only reinforced the belief to me that it was "the truth".

  After he and all GB 1.0 members passed on GB 2.0 are certainly NOTHING like these old timers...and I whilst I accept it is not "the truth" even when the likes of John & Dan were in the GB it is hard to accept they were as devious or manipulative as GB 2.0 are...GB 1.0, or at least Dan & John, had more honesty about them.

  I think if most of the older GB members were still alive they would be aghast as to what the GB and the org have become...which is great because it will be their downfall.

  The Truth is not an ORG.....It's inside of you

  the truth, the org is the truth...ummm...let's think about that...i was thinking that the bible is the truth & what it does is that it reveals the truth about you...the more you read the bible the more you may see yourself & your actions.

  you may be a person who judges people, the bible will show you what's wrong with that...viola, another truth revealed about you.

  you may be a prideful person, you read a story in the bible about that...again, it's another truth revealed about you.

  How can the bible help if anyone if it is not true and full of piss made up by people who had little knowledge about the world they lived in?

  Ignore it...live the life you want to live...enjoy it, don't hurt others and be free.

  when i grew up in the 1980's -90's it was rare to see a faithful slaves picture in 10 years of watchtowers.

  everything was anonymous.

  no one really knew there names except for the "holy oricle" fred franz.. now they are full on t.v stars with there own show.

  The WT is ignoring the Jewish calender which this year is a leap year and adds an extra month...the WT sticks to the first full moon in the spring equinox.

  Almost three months since Crisis of Conscience Cease and Desist

  by ILoveTTATT2 in

  i am very interested in getting crisis of conscience being fully available as soon as possible.

  march 12th will mark exactly three months since the cease-and-desist letter was written.. i understand that things are slow and that deborah may be sick, but i was just wondering if anyone knew the status.

  i have been asked twice already where the book can be obtained in spanish and i have told people that the book is not available.. there are ways to make ebooks extremely hard to share.

  Aliens exist and YHWH (Jehovah) was one of them.

  "the constellation of the seven stars forming the pleiades appears to be the crowning centre around which the known system of the planets revolve even as our suns planet obey the sun and travel in their respective orbits.

  it has been suggested, and with much weight, that one of the stars of that group is the dwelling place of jehovah and the place of the highest heavens; that is the place to which the inspired writer referred to when he said: "hear thou from thy dwelling place, even from heaven" (2 chronicles6:21) ; and that it is the place to which job referred when under inspiration he wrote: "canst thou blind the sweet influences of pleiades, or loose the bands of orion" – job 38:31"

  the constellation of the pleiades is a small one compared with others which scientific instruments disclose to the wondering eyes of man.

  Disagree with many on here...I asked to be circumcised when in my 30's and the difference is as day and night in terms of my sexual health and sensitivity.

  Without a foreskin is so much better. In my experience.

  Conversation with JW mom on this years memorial date and Nissan 14 discrepancy.

  by Question_Mans_interpretation in

  i'm having an ongoing texting conversation with my mom right now on the march 23rd memorial date.

  she completely goes into cult mode.. me: why is the memorial on march 23rd this year and not april 22nd/23rd when the corresponding nissan 14 commences?

  since when did the organization stop following the jewish calendar for passover?.
