I stopped the door to door work when they came out with these door bell cameras and porch pirates made the news. I don't want to be recorded or spoken to through a camera. I don't like talking through a peep hole. And I don't want to be on camera or recorded when a package comes up missing for some reason.

the gaping hole in this week's weak wt study.
by waton infor pimi pimo persons: give us one text that says those aspiring to everlasting life should not partake of the bread and wine.
in the article, the whole proposition of refusing the emblems is based on the personal experience of one brother in the 1930s.!

Vidqun:
"To the contrary, note what Jesus says of you if you don't partake: “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day” (cf. John 6:48-54 ESV)."
Jesus did not mean that literally that people have to eat and drink anything to get life.

When You Were A Witness Did You Believe Everything Taught?
by minimus inobviously at some point you stopped believing the witnesses had the truth or else you wouldn’t be here.
.
but for the most part, were you a true believer or were you typically a rebel or a doubter?

Minimus, Witnesses have the truth about the condition of the dead and who go to heaven and why. The truth about God and his son. The truth about living well and good lives.
They don't say anything about birthdays. The interesting thing is that now, plantation parties are considered bad because of what happened 200 years ago on plantations; so why aren't birthday parties considered bad because of bad things happening at them in the past?
Yes, we can pick and choose what we can do. We can believe bible truths regardless of the organization.

jhine.
It is simple.
Only 144,000 as Revelation says, get resurrected as spirit being to serve as kings and priests with Jesus. There is no need for anyone else to do that. They have a job to do.
As kings and priests, there will be ones they rule over and intercede for and those ones will be on the earth and those will live for the 1000 years.

Waton, I don't accept what Paul teaches, however those in his time were part of the 144,000 so they would eat and drink of it.
And John 6 does say that anyone who eats of his flesh... That is obviously symbolic. But it does not refer to eating bread on a specific date every year. It means to believe that his flesh died for us. It refers to life on earth as well as heaven.

No. Not for me. I still believe the Witnesses have the truth. But I have always questioned everything. My issue is that they take the Bible too literally and make stupid rules such as considering taking birthday cake as an matter of loyalty to Jehovah; meetings and field service is a command from God; We have to give up everything for the meetings and that they are worship.

Spiritually Weak Ones Are Bad Association according to the Governing Body
by RULES & REGULATIONS inafter you read the words of jesus in mark 2: 17, you will see that the contrast between the teachings of jesus and the governing body.. .
you clearly read what's written in the bible, but the society is always twisting and bending scriptures to their benefit.
here is stephen lett talking about ''spiritually weak'' members and twisting jesus's words teaching on sinners:.

It’s all about image. You have to make a good appearance of spirituality,
That is the truth especially when dating or being married to a woman Witness. They are only concerned about dating or marrying a CO or an elder or a MS because of how they will look to the congregation. Everything is about how they look to the congregation.

No one today should partake.
Jesus told the 11 apostles to eat the bread and drink the wine and keep doing that in remembrance of him. They were with him for 3 1/2 years. They had person experiences to remember. No one since they died had those experiences. We only know Jesus from reading stories in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. So we don't eat bread and drink wine in remembrance of him. We reread the stories in remembrance of him.
