  Why not just get a copy of Carl Olaf Jonsson's book and read it for yourself? All the important material is covered there.

  Just curious myself, O Curioso, who is this person who put together the apology you cut-and-pasted/scanned?

  New Trend in Dramas?

  by breakfast of champions in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  so it used to be that all dramas were ot.

  period, that was it.. then they started incorporating a "modern day" application of the ot drama where actors in the present day reflected on the story.. then they started using some highly fictionalized nt characters in dramas (never jesus of course).

  in the past few years we've been getting more "modern dramas", just about people in the present dealing with their "problems".

  BOC:

  Are the words below b/c they are now expecting the "wild beast" to come down on them due to their child abuse policies?

  " The last drama opens with the father turning on the TV to see that the government is "cracking down" on jehovahs witnesses in our "free" country - brings to mind "the nations" turning on "jehovahs people" before (or is it during? Or after?) the Great Trib."

  In other words, are they trying to prepare the R&F for what they now see as likely (or even inevitable?)—that the govt. IS going to crack down on them b/c of their child abuse policies? Are they even now believing that this act would precipitate Armageddon??

  Opinions here, please...

  Judicial Meeting

  by Kool Jo in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  so here you are...sitting with a couple of elders at judicial meeting, and you're asked the following question:.

  "do you still believe that the fds is the channel that jehovah is using"?.

  now is it possible to answer 'no' without being df, or how would you answer that question?.

  The elders have been trained to distinguish between outright "rebellion," saying the FDS is/are not God's sole mouthpiece, and those who have doubts (on the basis of the passage "continue to show mercy to those who have doubts"). You could always just say' "I'm not sure any more. I have some doubts. I guess I let myself become spritually weak." Playing the doubter-weakness card can buy you some time, at least.

  Former Long Time Elder, Part 4

  by James Jackson in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  an elderly brother came up to me the other day and said: "you are a true christian"!

  i asked him what he meant by that and he said because i "really care about the older ones in the congregation".

  he went on to say that the elders and pioneers are so busy, they have to "get their time in the field service", no time left to check on the the older ones.

  Freeminds 2.0 has launched

  by Dogpatch in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  today we are launching freeminds2.org.

  this is stage 3 of a three part project spanning over 30 years since i left watchtower headquarters in 1980 and gave the 18 members of the then-governing body, including president nathan knorr and vice-president frederick w. franz.. the new site will be more blog/news oriented (and updated more often with articles, blogs and videos almost daily).. all of our previous sites, such as armageddonokies.com and watchtowerworld.org, randytv.com, exjws.net, and others will be incorporated into the previous freeminds site, which is currently being revised and converted from its joomla-based format to this wordpress format.

  i am sure you will find it much easier to search for words, people, articles, and subject very easy.
