  i recently installed youtube on my ipad, as i was prompted to view some videos of a non jw source.

  it was more for entertainment.

  eventually jw related videos showed up and i viewed some and found them interesting.

  How many here (believers) believe in the Hell fire doctrine and why??

  by jam in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it's obvious the bible is very clear on a actual hell of fire.

  "cursed into the eternal fire with the devil and his angels", rev.20:15.

  "lake of fire", rev.21:8 "fire and brimstone".

  If Luke 16:23 is true, i imagine replacing the word "rich man" with the name Charles T Russell would bring this story to life...

  Those magazines are "old" light and shouldn't be taken literally. Only material that is on jw.org should be considered current... It is a shame though, that these kids put their life up for what is likely to become "old" light. M 15:17

  A JW experience

  2. experiences

  this is a quick experience i have recently had and i have two questions at the end.. a couple of weeks ago, the dogs were barking at the gate on saturday morning and wouldn't you know it, it was some witnesses.

  there was a father with his lovely wife and their young daughter.

  the father did all the talking as mother and daughter just dutifully smiled and watched.

  I heard last year some time, that the preaching work was going to end soon, so just waiting. Actually that might help them in reverse , some on the side lines would come back thinking the end had come already(invisibly) and it would be all over the news being such a huge change...

  They're now asking people to clean at Bethel?

  by onightdivine in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i heard from a "friend" that a letter was read aloud during the midweek meeting asking people to volunteer to do cleaning work in bethel.

  lol.

  i really can't think of anything else to say if this is true.. they get more free labor, and they still ask for more more more money!!

  What Are Your "Senior Moments" Like?

  by compound complex in

  2. friends

  dear friends:.

  i imagine by now we old timers have adjusted to the fact that we are getting older and, one day, will make our exit.

  are your "senior moments" ever a cause for worry to you?

  being a senior I get so many medical bills for various procedures, that I think I only pay them once, but often get checks in the mail from when I have paid twice and forgotten. Glad that medical offices are honest.

  Proof the GB changes scriptures in the Bible...really interesting

  by MrsR-Awaken in

  2. bible

  hello everyone, this info below me is not mine it's from a user in reddit that posted it.

  his user name is question_and_answer1 i was hoping he was in this forum too but i don't know if he is.

  anyway the credit goes to him for researching this and it's really interesting what he found and i want everyone here to read, and it's proof of how fake the watchtower is and how disgusting the gb really is...it's sickening.

  My 2 cents would be to change "men" in Mat 15:9 to "governing body"

  as an unbelieving mate (how tasteless), when i go to the meeting, I always plan to take my prescription pain killer right before going, so Im all smiles for a couple of hours and can endure the insults thrown my way. (have a blown and herniated disc). wonder how many others do this just to get thru 2 hours. (assembly takes 3 pills)
