  thursday while i was at work, a new elder stopped by the house (almost 3 years after fading) to encourage us to go back to meetings.

  said everyone misses us.

  if you did, why not stop by and say hi every now and then?

  @ Judgerusellford

  Do well to get us a recording of your conversation with them. It might be of use or one to listen to.

  Regarding DA

  It all boils down to personal decision as it suits the circumstances and situation.

  Were you a slave when you were called? Don't let it trouble you--although if you can gain your freedom, do so.(even by DA).

  22

  For he who was a slave when he was called by the Lord is the Lord's freedman; similarly, he who was a free man when he was called is Christ's slave.

  23

  You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of men.(even by DA)

  24

  Brothers, each man, as responsible to God, should remain in the situation God called him to.(even by DA)

  Since they see DA and DF as same I rather let them remain in their judgemental mindset of grouping DA as those who they states in their manuals.......

  "Of course, contact should not be made with active apostates, with those who are trying to lead others into sin, or with those who have made it known that they want nothing to do with the Christian congregation."

  
  

  After all...... Whoever exercises faith in him is not to be judged. Whoever does not exercise faith has been judged already, because he has not exercised faith in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.

  
  

  What right do they have to call others

  1. Those who lead others to sin?

  2. Apostates?

  3. Those who have nothing to do with the Christian congregation?

  3. on the other hand, some brothers and sisters—younger and in good health—have more favorable circumstances that may allow them to attend christian meetings regularly at the kingdom hall.

  From the letter...... Can I put forth greater effort to worship Jehovah in person?

  When members are sitting in the comfort of their homes and connect to the meetings it is not ENOUGH effort to be seen as worshipping Jehovah in person. That person must attend the KINGDOM HALLS as confirmation that they are indeed worshipping God in person.

  LEGALISM at its best.

  Jesus words in John 4. holds no meaning here :Jesus said to her: “Believe me, woman, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

  Cheers once again Atlantis

  New Light, New Light!

  by BoogerMan in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  more accurately known as a reversal of a long held 'truth.'.

  september 2022 study watchtower - par.

  14 p. 18 - "in the past, we understood jesus’ words to refer to the deeds the resurrected ones will practice after their resurrection; that is, some will come to life and practice good things while others will come to life and practice vile things.

  The doctrinal change is laughable.

  Issue 1 from the article: In the past, we understood

  Who are the WE?

  1. The Governing body of Jehovah's.

  2. The members who are going to PARROT what they didn't understand in the first place.

  Issue 2 from the article: That makes sense, does it not?

  Nothing really make sense in the first place. The members only have to obey and get indoctrinated. After all

  1. even those teachings and directions that does not make sense are meant to be obeyed and adhered to.

  2. The members never had the opportunity or say in doing or deciding what makes sense or not.

  2. beliefs

  hello, i'm new here and have woken up to the real truth concerning the org.

  i'm sort of fading away at the moment.... i need help with something, i used to as a child celebrate christmas and have always had amazing memories of it (my husband hasn't as he was born into the org) but i gave it up when i learnt the "truth".

  my interest was only in pleasing god and still is.

  Colossians 2:16- 19 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. 17 These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ. 18 Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind. 19 They have lost connection with the head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.

  Question..........

  1. Please will celebrating someone who brought you salvation from sin and death cause you to lose your CONNECTION WITH THE HEAD?

  
  

  2. Paul had a warning for those Such a person or persons who go into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with IDLE NOTIONS by their UNSPIRITUAL MIND.

  What does idle notions mean?

  1 unemployed or unoccupied; inactive
  

  2 not operating or being used
  

  3 (of money) not being used to earn interest or dividends
  

  4 not wanting to work; lazy
  

  5 usually prenominal frivolous or trivial
  idle pleasures

  6 ineffective or powerless; fruitless; vain
  

  7 without basis; unfounded

  
  

  
  

  a. What is active about those pagan celebrations associated with the celebrations of Christmas in recent times?

  
  

  b. How many people do you see get themselves occupied or employed with those pagan celebrations?

  
  

  c. Has Paul not said those things celebrated or done to idols ineffective, powerless, or vain?
  

  
  

  
  

  1 Corinthians 8 Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that “We all possess knowledge.” But knowledge puffs up while love builds up. 2 Those who think they know something do not yet know as they ought to know. 3 But whoever loves God is known by God.

  4 So then, about eating food sacrificed to idols: We know that “An idol is nothing at all in the world” and that “There is no God but one.” 5 For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”), 6 yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live.

  What is the pagan celebration in a person saying in his own heart, mind and soul that there his one Lord - - - - - Jesus Christ and choose to celebrate on a day that coincides with the day a particular IDOL which is vain, ineffective and unemployed in the heart, mind and soul of this person is equally celebrated?
