  UK & IRELAND MAP

  by ballistic in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i had an idea that i could build a uk map of everyones location which would show you instantly who is in your area from jwd.. (it might be an idea to do a seperate us one aswell but i'll wait and see if this one takes off first, or if anyone from the us wants to volunteer to do that one).

  (and australia but you are all in the same backyard anyway - literally!!!).

  anyway, all you have to do is post or email me your username and town and i will draw you on the map above which will change gradually to include everyone!.

  One scripture that proves the WT is false

  by moman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if you believe that paul was inspired then you can't believe the watchtower follows jehovah's way.. the apostle paul wrote.

  "...we are walking by faith, not by sight" .

  2co5:7. if paul is correct, why would true christians need "gods visual organization on earth", the answer can only be, drum roll please..... because the watchtower has no faith!

  Hi there littleoldyou!

  Thanks for that; I did'nt realise it was in there so much;this was one of the first things I was 'persuaded' to believe that set the scene for my acceptance of the paradise theory;it actually felt quite odd,reading what you wrote,I remember that moment really clearly-it made me feel i'd found something really important.

  What a prat I was...

  Preparation for Dateline & online interest

  by Kismet in

  dateline is just 24 hours (give or take) away.

  i really do expect to see a great deal of online activity as people search for more information.

  jwd is likely going to be one of the most visited due to the large amount of information posted here on the subject, much by silentlambs themselves.. i also expect to see people visiting randy's excellent site as well as watchtower observer for copies of documentation,news articles, etc.

  I'm all for keeping focussed on Dateline...People may visit and 'scan' the threads quickly for a feel of this place and be put off looking further;it's only for a while until they get the info they need to stay...

  They Persecuted Me

  by non_trias_theos in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  jesus christ said these telling words.

  and he supplemented them by also saying that his followers would be persecuted as he was persecuted.

  jesus's disciples were persecuted in the first century by a bitter wave of roman persecution.

  Persecution?In England?In 2002?i don't think so...
  Teachers looking after children (when they have better things to do) while they sit out of an assembly.

  Setting different work for JW children .

  Hospitals trying hard to fullfil medical obligations due to JW's unreasonable requests.

  Being allowed to 'preach' at all hours, freely.

  Being exempt from some local taxes,due to position in circuit.

  Freedom not to salute flag etc.

  Freedoms gained in justice system.

  The right of freedom of religion.

  The right not to fight.

  Freedom from taxes whilst being a false charity...
  Anyone think of a few hundred more?(I've got children to get ready for bed!)

  "Home Is The Sailor.."

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i mentioned last week that we had held a wake for my friend and quiz partner, knocker john the sailor and submariner.. this afternoon saw the completion of our good-byes, as knocker was cremated after an amazing funeral.

  first off, the coffin arrived draped in the royal navy ensign, then, to the music of moonlight serenade, we all trooped into the chapel.

  a lady stood to take the service, and, suddenly i realised that knockers last wish was to take place.. about a year ago, i posted how knocker and i had attended a funeral for someone else, and how marvellous the funeral had been because it had been a non-religious service.

  Hope you're not too sad today Eman;
  I can almost feel the calmness of your mood, the day sounds as though it left you feeling serene and accepting and thinking about the friend who's gone,as a good send off should..x
