A Lesson Fom OUTLAW..

by OUTLAW in

so i`m sitting at my desk... finding new ways to laugh at the wbt$ on jwn and... i hear a knock on the door... *knock..knock..knock*...... who could that possibly be?...

i`m in the middle of friggin nowhere!..

it`s 2 young jw girls 12 or 13... with an invitation to the memorial... .

With all these wild animals roaming around, did you make sure they made it to their vehicle alright? I would have walked them back to their car and given the driver proper crap or kept the girls at your house and called the cops. This is serious shit! They are the real victims forced to do something that is lifethreatening

To those still "in"... how do these scriptures impact you?

by leaving_quietly in

matt 7:13, 14: "go in through the narrow gate; because broad and spacious is the road leading off into destruction, and many are the ones going in through it; 14?whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life, and few are the ones finding it.".

matt 24:44: "on this account you too prove yourselves ready, because at an hour that you do not think to be it, the son of man is coming.".

2 pet 3:3, 4: "for you know this first, that in the last days there will come ridiculers with their ridicule, proceeding according to their own desires 4?and saying: where is this promised presence of his?

Hey leaveing_quietly, Maybe these scriptures can make you feel better ! Corinthian 4:5 and 1 Corinthians 13:9,10. Just saying untill those two witnesses come in Revelation chapter eleven and do all those things which haven't happened yet, and then when they do come we have three and a half years to shape up and then Jesus comes and gives us that abundance of knowledge where he turns darkness into light. You know, that abundance of knowledge that every other religion is roving the earth for. Until then, keep reading the bible and following his commandments which were not burdensome.

How many of you here became inactive and went back for the second time and then left for good?

by FingersCrossed in

and what were the reasons?.

label licker

Was a born-in and had to leave home at fifteen, never knowing the religion that well. Just remembered the resurrection and wanted to know more about it since I had a brother who died at eleven. I was a year older than him when he fell down two stairs and cracked his head open. A year later he died at Sick Childrens Hospital. Almost thirty years later thought I would try it and saw everything Blondie saw but the final crunch was JW NET! Thank you ;)

Hey Splash,

we've got two soft covered bibles where one has the backets in and the other bible has the brackets out on that very scripture at Romans 6:7. Same wording but now has different meaning. And to think it was just a push of a button on the computer and god's will is done. These uneducated ones have come along way, wouldn't you guys say?

companions and carers.

by zeb in

yesterday i had the duty of care to take our feline companion of 20 years to the vet to be euthanized.. i took a tin of his fav tuna and gave him a last meal at the vets to settle him as the needle and medication did its work.. he died peacefully and in no pain.

my wife and i buried him in the garden next to a another older moggie.. i had the duty to email this sad news to the family who have largely grown up with him.. i sat in my back room and cried bitterly.

i will miss him terribley and his head rubbs him checking on me once i was in bed and all his ways.. sleep well..... time for another cry..

I am truly sorry for your loss. We never had children and our pets are our kids. I know how your feeling for in the past we've had to put down afew dogs (old age or sickness) and it never gets any easier. One is buried out by the ponds and the other is under the big old apple tree in the orchard. My heart goes out to you. I've never gone without an animal, for me it's a security thing letting me know there's someone out there that needs me besides my husband.

If you were to ask my husband, my pets are the first to get their kisses of the day, their the first to get their breakfasts and walks. They are allowed to fart and burp and I think it's cute. They get away with so much. I feel soooo sorry for my husband but that's just the way it is.

And after I'm done with the pets then I have to tend to the birds, chipmunks, coons, rabbits and squirrels that come every day and night for their little feedings. I hate death! I feel so bad for you

New Stupid Assembly Rules

by WTWizard in

i have heard on this discussion board numerous rules that apply to upcoming a$$emblies.

some are designed to stop people from meeting the opposite sex; others, to make sure everyone is always ready to recruit new members into the scam.

i heard that some km inserts have been urging those whose congregation has cleaning assignments to sit in the section that they are assigned to clean.

You guys would fit in at our district conventions with the signs. We have the attendants roaming the corridors holding up signs stateing please be quiet.

We're not df'd but went from going to every meeting and forty to sixty hours per month field service to asking the elders questions about Michael ect... Then we had one of their boys befriend us saying how he loves questions and so innocent hubby asked away. Next thing the cobe wants us in the woodshed and we said nope and he asked us if we were questioning the FDS which in reply we asked why would you ask that? That was our last meeting and it's been nine months-no visit, no asking for our hours but we heard through the grapevine from 2 witnesses that there was a local needs on apostacy a week after we were gone. Now noone calls and I get dirty looks in the grocery store but that's ok. I'm a better person for it.
