Channel 9 news tonight reported that 570 will be baptised tomorrow... Over 65,000 attended today....
it has been a while since i've seen a witness, either in person or virtually.
searching for someone on facebook took me to the profile of a ministerial servant that i know.
i scrolled through his wall to see who is still around and found this gem:.
are most people aware of this website?
they have a video that is pretty interesting.
it was too long though and i didn't have time to listen to the whole thing.
Marking
at the end of his final talk he said of the gb: they are telling the higher ups , "start getting ready we're not going to be around much longer!
" and we expect the angels to release the four winds any day now!
" my first thought was why are you building a corporate country club then?!
Maybe they're gonna do a runner with all that money...
so, i have been thinking...what is the formula or recipe for the "perfect jw"?.
here are a few points i thought of...please feel free to add!.
always dress in the jw manner...no variation in clothing / hair styles / facial hair.
Believe everything they tell u & never question anything they tell u...
thought i am gonna introduce myself.
i am a girl from a country in europe, and not an english speaking one, so if i am writing strange or something, you know why.
anyway, have been reading here for a while now, the other day i thought it was time to register as a member.
Welcome Powermetal :)
i was driving our car going to our assigned territory for our sunday field minsitry (was with jw 2 sisters) when i saw a disfellowshipped jw riding his motorcycle heading towards us.
the guy was df'd around 2 months ago only (won't delve much on his case).
approximately about 10 meters, we saw him smile.
I always said a hello or smiled to any d'fed ones I knew and never removed any d'fed friends frm fb when I was active. I could never understand back then why we treated d'fed ones so cruelly when we were supposed to be such a loving religion. I also recently connected with my d'fed sister. I never shunned her but it's amazing how talking about TTAT can bring u closer together. My hairdresser is also d'fed - it's amazing how many jw's still go to her...
so, i am in washinton state visiting my son and his family and we went to a concert that had a fortune tellers booth, actually a gypsy wagon.
i decided to do something no jw would ever do, have a tarot card reading.
i wasn't really expecting anything, as i don't believe they are connected with the satan, but i don't believe they can actually read your future either.
I've had a few readings done... They had always intrigued me when I was a JW but of course it was a big no-no. The first one got some things right, but was way off with other things. the second one was very accurate. She asked u to write down as many questions u wanted answers to and asked u to fold the paper and place it in yr bag or pocket (she wasn't in the room when I did this) and at the end of the reading she asked u to look at yr questions to make sure she answered it. Her accuracy was so spot on, it kind of freaked me out. She was accurate with names of friends & families - even those that have passed. I will have to wait a couple of years to see just how accurate she was - but so far, she's been spot on... I also had one that was so way off - it was a joke.
