  July 2023 Study Watchtower - Great Tribulation is coming soooooooooooooon!

  by BoogerMan in

  is this the "great tribulation" which jesus warned he would bring upon the corrupt christian congregations worldwide, (revelation 2:22; 7:14) or is it the same 1st century g.t.

  which he said would never occur again?

  (matthew 24:21).

  Let us strive for intellectual honesty.

  Nobody here wants to remove the choice of family members to like each other or not, or to talk to each other or not. I am not sure it's credible to pretend to misunderstand that.

  The 'whole point' is that watchtower does remove that choice, it mandates disfellowshipping and shunning for infractions both major and minor (such as exercising religious freedom), even arbitrary reasons, and keeps the reasons secret, and it does it to minors.

  Comparing a kangaroo court with a Family Court of the real world is not sensible.

  @ markweatherill - according to the BBC, more than 5000 Ukrainians obtained tickets to attend the match.

  The BBC article says 1000 tickets were given to Ukrainian refugees and their host families. 4200 tickets were sold to 'Ukraine fans'.
  

  It's a stretch to assume, without knowing, that the latter were 'travelling fans' from Ukraine. Maybe they were, I don't know, but my point, without prejudice and made with kind intent, is that you don't know either.

  here he is in holyrood ranting about how scotland is too white.

  he is the 'continuity candidate' who will carry on sturgeon's woke agenda.

  this does not represent the people of scotland.

  What Will JW's Do If They Find Themselves Still Conscious after Death?

  by Sea Breeze in

  2. beliefs

  we all know that despite many scriptures to the contrary, jw's believe that when they die, their consciousness will cease.

  my question is this: what will be the likely reaction of jw's if they find themselves conscious after death?.

  If the begging pays off, he may be able to use the punchline I heard elswhere:

  'Thanks, everyone! For a while there, I thought I might have to dip into my savings!'
