Are the doom day fanatics making prediction "Syria"
by jam inisaiah 17;1 the burden against damascus syria.
"behold damascus will cease from being a city.
will be a ruinous heap".. maybe that's why my son-in-law jw said the end is so.

The Anglo-American world power are not in synch. What does this mean? Mummy hasn't told us.
The WT has lost all creativity since Fred Franz died. He would be all over this declaring Syria the new "King of the North".

Lurkers/faders in the US - a heads up on next week's service meeting (Warwick HQ project to be discussed)
by cedars inhi folks.
atlantis has very kindly let me see a copy of the aug 21, 2013 letter to all bodies of elders in the united states.. they are being instructed to re-organize the service meeting for the week commencing september 2nd (next week) to include a special recruitment talk to attract skilled volunteer workers for the new warwick hq.. an interesting feature of the letter is its comparison of the project with nehemiah's rebuilding of the walls of jerusalem.
considering the relocation of hq is financially motivated more than anything, the analogy is more than a little bewildering.. here is a scan of the opening comments of the two-page outline, to be given in the next local needs item.... .

“Those who volunteer to assist at Warwick may have to make sacrifices in order to help.” But it promises, “Jehovah will richly reward their efforts.”
Exactly how will Jehovah richly reward their efforts?
Will he pay your bills at home while your off giving free labor that will richly reward the governing body?
I just love how the push the compenstation for your sacrifices off on Jehovah so they have no skin in the game.

You may want to ask her if she has been doing any cooking with aluminum cook ware. It could be that.

weekly bible reading question: Paul recommended disfellowshipping the immoral man, why not the lady involved?
by prologos ini cor.
5 ---- was she out of the reach of the elders, because she was an unbaptized subject?--- were ladies of less important to paul's thinking?
, like the primary blame on adam for "sin" rather than eve's?-- for those that still find the talking snake saga worthy of discussion for one reason or another.

Possably because Paul never got paid for a tent that he made for the man so he had an axe to grind?

Jehovah's Witnesses are NOT false prophets
by SloppyJoe intonight on the service meeting we discussed why jws are not false prophets.
of the ten minute part two were spent discussing that jws just had wrong expectations and only very minor changes over the years although nothing specific was mentioned.
the other eight focused on the core bible truths that have remained the same over the years.

Reinstatement Hearing Secretly Recorded and on JWStruggle
by RayPublisher inokay people i have a new video that some of you may be interested in- i believe it is the only one of its kind online.
three elders meet with a young female that knows ttatt and is trying to get back into the jws for family reasons.
the audio also includes the three elders disagreeing and deliberating after she is dismissed from the room and then when they call her back in.

If they were to find out about this recording, they would not need to prosecute anyone in order to disfellowship her again.
They would only need to recognize that she recorded them and then made it available to appostates who openly claim she knows the TATT and she only did this for family reasons. It would be hard to believe that elder #1 would not disfellowship in a heart beat regardless of any legal issues.

My Jimi Hendrix experience
by confusedandalone inas a 13 year old a friend of mine had a jimi hendrix record and told me if we play it backwards that they said words.
he bought the record from a shop not far from where we lived and we were the only family that still had a record player.
so we played the record and i spun it backwards andnothing happened.

Didn't she know that if you burn the album and it screems, that is how you can tell if it is demon possessed?
I had the exact same experience, except in my case it was the In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida album from Iron Butterfly.

They are back ground checked by the 'holy spirit'. What more could you ask for?
