  2018 Regional (District) Convention Outlines

  by AverageJoe1 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so the official program is out but does anyone have access to the actual outlines for the assembly this year in english and/or spanish?.

  maybe the gb are clamping down on their "high-up" leaks within the organisation and the circuit overseers making these available have been kicked or had to no longer leak material for fear of getting themselves discovered by the wt gestapo..

  just seen this on: http://toronto.citynews.ca/video/2018/03/14/online-obit-hijacked-by-religious-propaganda-family/.

  a jw doing their "witnessing" has resulted in the daughter of the deceased going to the news outlets in canada.

  obviously wt have been quick to respond and back up their loyal fellow worshipper throw their drone follower under the proverbial bus as can be seen by their official statement:.

  2. experiences

  i attended the assembly programming at dudley yesterday (saturday) and it was so boring.. only 5 baptisms i think.

  during the baptism talk an 11 year old girl was interviewed who has already been baptised a year!

  (disgraceful).

  And it is opposite the Zoo, where you'll get a lot more sense out of the animals there than on the platform at the assembly hall!

  Today's WT Paragraph 4

  by Slidin Fast in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i thought that this little gem deserved a thread of it's own.. 4. why is it important for us to be present at the memorial if at all possible?.

  4 reflect on the importance of attending the memorial.

  remember, congregation meetings are part of our worship.

  Sci-fi conventions are far more important and unifying. Plus, even Star Wars and Star Trek fans are welcome and can turn up in their respective gear and both are accepted. Each can talk openly about their respective preferences.

  Try doing THAT at a Memorial: Share why you prefer your way of worshipping God or Jesus in a Q&A discussion!

  Sci-fi conventions for the win, then!

  March 2018 Broadcast - When quotes become rumors

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this months broadcast is presented by losche and he discusses the need for trust in the fds.

  the following is transcribed from the 12.30 mark.. satan also has the scheme to spread rumors about our brothers including the faithful slave.

  the method of spreading rumors is not new.

  A JW apologist called Bob (your typical apostate hater) on JWtalk had this to say:

  I was reflecting on the talk for this month. Trust. Who should I trust? Well, what has the media done for me? What effort have they put forth to teach me about God? What money have they spent in educating me about the Bible, Bible prophecies, God's requirements, what the future holds? All they have done is served as a conduit for our opposers, while hardly ever checking facts, because they want a juicy story.

  On the other hand, while the Slave is not prefect, they have spared no expense in education us about God, the Bible, God's future for us, and his requirements, all while not charging me a single dime.

  So why should I trust people who haven't done anything to teach me about God or the Bible, over those who dedicated their lives to helping me learn about God and providing the means to do it?

  What twisted reasoning! Erm the media aren’t a religious organisation so why would they make an effort to teach you religious stuff. Typical JW who lives in a bubble with no education and cries out “lies” to any JW criticism!

  Of course “the Slave” have spared no expense. They use all the money fleeced from their deluded followers!

  Oh Boy! Beards are "stumbling blocks" again ... from Stephen Lett

  by freddo in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so this week's midweek meeting video about stumbling others has lett spouting and gurning rubbish again.. if you can't take the whole 9 minutes go from 5:50 to get the context and 6:45 for the "beard" mention.. https://youtu.be/ezv1ici5cwo.

  oh, well - at least they shoot themselves in the foot with this doublespeak.

  Also it shows that the GB really don’t give a damn about the “flock” otherwise they would state outright on their website that there is nothing Biblically wrong with beards and having one doesn’t make you less of a Christian.

  They just want to stick to their stuck-in-the-1950s attitudes and expose their conscience o everyone else.

  The earthly resurrection pipe dream

  by Sour Grapes in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i woke up this morning thinking about when my mom died about 10 years ago.

  she was an avid jdub and was confident that she would be resurrected to an earthly paradise petting zoo.

  if i would today go to my mom's house and because god brought her back to life, saw her sitting in her favorite chair, would she really be my mom?

  I thought MOON was great. I was expecting the station AI to be the baddie like HAL in 2011.
