as serious students of the holy scriptures, we all know what a great role the history of korea has played in the outworking of the divine purpose.. (you realize i'm pulling your leg, right?
tell me when to stop...).
this being the obvious and incontrovertible truthtm, we can expect that in the not-too-distant future the wtb&ts will announce that north korea is the "king of the north" and that kingdom of antarctica is the "king of the south.
Nathan,
Greber is good, but tricky. He has been known to work both sides of the aisle. He was tight with Mary Baker Eddy but threw Freddy Franz a few prophetical curves. Be careful with the sedatives as you know the FDA is not an approved associate. Jim Beam was the Judge's "helper" even during years when good spirit stock was scarce. Jehovah-jireh!

Jeff, u r "rightly dividing the word of truth". California does play a role in fulfilling Bible prophecy as the antitypical Sodom and Gomorrah. I'm not sure if you've been stumbled by Bro. Gibson. He is, like all of us, imperfect. Perhaps, if you concentrated on his good qualities instead of focusing on his flaws. . . . . . BTW, is there a more demon-inspired anthem than "Oh, Canada!"?

Hopefully, therevealer, you're not doubting the "slave"? Frequently, the Great Jehovah uses a modern-day Cyrus to unwittingly aid his chosen ones. The evil Canadian empire is no exception. Even the "image of the wild beast" proves to be a mere tool in the hands of our heavenly father as he works his NGO magic in behalf of the sheepfold. You should be more worried about the "King of the South", Mexico where corruption is the norm. Our brothers there work very hard for just a few pesos, sometimes just enough to pay government authorities the "morbida" or bribe in lieu of military service.
with you in kingdom service,

I'm a bit rusty on new light but here goes:
Canada is the new "King of the North", certainly north of the New Jerusalem, that is Patterson, N.Y. Canadians are known for being warlike, militaristic, atheistic. So it fits.
The new "King of the South" is Mexico, now engaged in a "pushing" with the K of the N. Think Zetas and Cartel del Golfo.
Nathan, you don't get the publisher's Wt, do you?

i didn't want you to be able to say you missed this, hence a new thread.. from jyd's thread about how he utter demolished a group of 30 jws out in field circus and had elders running to hide behind sister's skirts:.
doubtfully yours, since you're obviously so spiritually strong, why don't you put your money where your mouth is and engage junk yard dog in a debate?
you ought to be able to defeat him handily, since you have your spiritual suit of armor and jehovah's magic spirit is upon you.. in fact, i double-dog dare you!
You guys are murmuring like a bunch of Israelites in the wilderness. Patience, my brothers! Doubtfully will undoubtedly show. Do you realize how hard it is to round up 30 JW's on a Sunday during football season?

It should be a semi-fair fight. Doubtfully has the backing of the gawd of the universe but he must be careful to display the fruitage of the spirit lest he bring reproach upon his deity. Junk Yard can fight no holds barred but he has no theocratic backing. Lucifer was going to be in his corner but he's passed out drunk in a whore house.
May the best man win!

2 wt zombies came to my door today.
and i opened a can of woop a$$ on them.. i did the whole history of wt false prophecies on them and asked them to show me the gospel of 1914?
they couldn't and i followed them up and down the street proclaiming they were false teachers and couldn't talk their way out of a paper bag with a knowledgeable apostate.
The story was embellished much like a convention experience.

last night during the bible highlights, the brother (an insane and extreme zealot of an elder) said that people cannot expect jehovah to communicate with his servants directly anymore.
not because it wasn't part of his plan, nor because he has the all powerful and all knowing governing body in place, but because we really just aren't that important.
not important enough to warrant one one one communication.
God is sometimes referred to as a father. Does a normal, balanced father insist on worship from his children? Or is he content when his children lead productive, meaningful lives and are happy? Occasionally, religious or political despots have acted Jehovah-like causing much suffering.
Of course, if a human father sat idly by watching his children die in a tsunami wave, many courts would consider this akin to child endangerment or gross negligence. If a human father testified that he allowed his children to suffer because he was protecting his own name and reputation he would certainly not be respected as a father.
Additionally, a self-confident, omnipotent, omnicient being does not need to be told how great he is. If he is a creator, the success, beauty, power, intelligence and well-being of his creation proves it.

mission accomplished!
my wife and i held off the announcement and were able to attend my bil's wedding & reception this past weekend.
SBC,
Several aspects of your handling of this stand out:
You kept your poise. Our emotions can get the best of us when we are being maligned. Of course, seeing the elder tribunal as made up of frail, misguided, but well-meaning humans helped.
You were in control. Knowledge is power and you did not waste your understanding of Watchtower procedure.
You were unselfish. It amazes me that you were more concerned about using a the proceedings as a vehicle to enlighten others than in your own self-defense.
Your father's reaction saddens me. I was in his shoes seventeen years ago when my son was df'd. Without hesitating, thinking or even consulting my wife, I said: "Son, why don't you come back home?" That began our unraveling as JW's. We're still healing. I can't help but think that the character and consideration you've displayed in this whole affair came from somewhere. I have hope for your father's thawing.
