my life is a mess need some advice

by deservingone26 in

so if you read thru my previous posts from years ago u can see a little background of my life.

to do a quick summary i was df'd at 19, got into the party lifestyle which included party drugs and lots of alcohol.

at 24 i decided to step bacdk and really try to get my life in order.

Keep your head up. Back in the day, a good friend of mine had no where to live since his parents kicked him out, so he moved into a shelter. He found a minimum wage job. showed up to work on time and worked hard. He saved his money and took care of his health. After about 6 months, he was promoted at his minimum wage job, and was able to rent a studio for himself. You can do it. Think positive and work hard. The therapy will be very helpful too. Take care.

So what types of people actually flourish under the JW regime?

by Julia Orwell in

i sure as eggs know which types don't:.

creative types: to do well at a creative industry one must dedicate a lot of time to developing one's talent, and as a jw one simply doesn't have time.

since writing a story or painting a picture doesn't contribute in any way to prestudy, meetings or fs results it's considered useless anyway.

How Jehovah's Witnesses benefit those humble enough to study the Bible with them.

excellent material can be found within the reasoning book, page 328, para.2, 3. occasionally, i see posters make presumptuous comments like, "all you need is the bible", or, "i'm born-again, so there's no need for spiritual assistance from another christian", or,"i'm saved", or my favorite, "jesus talks to me directly.

" on one hand, i can't be overly critical of such ones because they do attempt to read and understand the bible on their own.

(acts 17:11) not to mention they're generally peaceable folks, just self-misguided when erroneously believing that they can go it alone.

While I was a minsterial servant, I was also serving as President of the Toastmaster's club at my University. The networking lead to a good job when I gratuated at a top firm in the industry I was pursuing. I highly recommend the club!

This is not an insult, just a mere ovservation. From reading the tone of SFPW's various posts, SFPW is a woman in her early twenties with much to prove about herself. I hope that life experience over time will humble her.

an average of five kingdom halls being constructed daily, almost 8 million brothers and sisters, dissemination of bible literature in 595 languages, 111,795 congregations worldwide, distribution of 179 million bibles available in 116 languages, 239 countries where jehovah's witnesses have a presence, etc.. need i go on?.

Are ANY Of The 20th Century Bible Prophecies Taught By JWs Still Believed In?

by minimus in

jw
friends

remember all those book studies that we had to understand, that dealt with prophecy as expounded by fred franz??.

are any of them still accepted as "truth"?.

"This Generation that will not pass" now equals two generations that wll not pass. Yet it is still referred to as "one generation." The WBTS should publish it's own dictionary as it thrives off of creating it's own definitions to words.
