  More evidence beards are being eased in . . .

  by neat blue dog in

  2. beliefs

  the june 2017 watchtower tells the experience of a bible student who was homeless and unkempt, but improved his appearance after being preached to.. peter began to change.

  he bathed, neatlytrimmed his beard, and put on the betterclothes that don offered him.

  peter continued to maintain a clean appearance.. so here we see that with a neatly trimmed beard the watchtower's writers view him as having "a clean appearance".

  How Old Was Eve When She Was Tempted?

  by berrygerry in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  has this question ever been answered by wt or biblical apologetic?.

  if near the beginning of her creation, would she not have had the effective development of a a toddler or even a baby?.

  if so, would you sentence a toddler or a baby to death for grabbing an appealing candy from a bowl?.

  Why don't they have a drama on this story? It might get more attendance than any memorial ever got.

  New Watchtower - Can You Look Beyond Outward Appearances?

  by ttdtt in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  how ironic that they have asked jws to not look past - tight pants - so called "affectations" - beards - long hair - short hair - and like 1000 other meaningless and trivial things.. https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/watchtower-study-june-2017/can-you-look-beyond-outward-appearances/.

  Peter kept a diary. The early sections of his journal were dark and gloomy, but his more recent entries were different. One entry read: “I learned God’s name today. Now when I pray, I can pray to Jehovah. It’s wonderful to know his name. Don says that Jehovah can be my personal Friend, someone who always has time to listen to me, no matter when or what.” These stories are just that, just stories made up to fit the WT 6th grade mentality. No last name to find out if there was really a homeless person that kept a diary? Seems like in every article there is a made up story just to support a 6th grade point.

  This guy has 2 major problems facing him from both sides of the fence , one, all his previous "fake" friends are now shunning him, which has been proven to cause irrational behavior and , two, you said you are married, and in the back of his mind, he knows he could be in serious physical trouble with your husband, like getting his ass kicked or worse. His mental state has to be troubled by both of these situations, which makes him a candidate that you should move away from.

  The word "Jehovah" is so overused at any Kingdumb hall that one time it is removed should hardly be noticed. Some comments to "Bible based" articles contain so many Jehovah,s, that it is almost half of the answer....

  was out side a jdubs house while they were playing kingdom songs.

  this is how the conversation went.. me: did you realize that one of their kingdom songs was a copy from the jurassic park theme song.. jdub: where did you find this.

  me: hey i've got the down load to the movie, and that theme song has a striking resemblance to that song you just played.

  This is a municipality employer which means they have to follow all the codes and rules of the US. Currently they have 291 jobs available to the public with the lowest pay $17.90/hr. I knew a brother who worked at a power production plant and his pay was over $40/hr for a non trade job. These jobs are hard to come by and this guy is fighting for a lot and he also has a pension which will also go up if he works longer. I think he is using whatever reason he could come up with to get his job back or get back in, because once you are outside looking in, you are on your own. He will probably win his case, but will take a while. Maybe while he is off work, he has more time on his hands and learn TTATT.

  we just had a city worker come a knocking on our front door and my responce after she left was, she should go down to the local kingdom haul and give lessons.

  her knock was so loud, she could raise the dead.

  This is the early stages of armegeddeon as brought out by a few e-mails circulating the JW globe. Meet at the KH and leave your phones at home for 7 days with further instruction coming down from the GB. I read this and hope it happens soon, so the current R&F can see for themselves, they are no different than the Jim Jones cult.

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuSde2jGhm8 Every time I hear the mormons mentioned, I always think of Donnie and Marie Osmond and how innocently they follow their leaders, even in segregation.
