life without end at last was the best one musically.....it sounds good with distortion on an electric guitar..i used to play it at get togethers and people would laugh nervously...of course i was doing it just to be fun as a joke. That was my 'worldliness coming through".

Most Annoying "Kingdom song?"
by doodle-v inwhat's a kingdom song you can remember singing that gives you the creeps now?
mine is "move ahead" i think that was the title, anyway it has so much rhetoric... but the tune is so darn catchy.... darn.... in my opinion, those songs are the perfect example of mind control.
move ahead.. move ahead ... blah blah blah blah blah .

thrown for a loop by Elder
by integ in'just when i'm about to get out, they keep pulling me back in"- godfather 3.. this quote does'nt truly apply to me, but just when i am convinced there are absolutely no redeemable qualities about the borg this really nice elder comes up to me and very calmly tells me how much i am loved and missed at the meetings, to not feel any pressure, and that jehovah will always be there for me, and that he (the elder) would too.
he had a very calm, serene, quality about him.
came off as truly "spiritual".

Thanks everyone for that "adjustment in thinking"....I guess that whole niceness thing caught me off guard. Sometimes I think too much with my heart than my head. Although even my heart tells me the Org as a whole, and it's management team, is way off base. If this board were a congregation I guess I'd be scheduled for a judicial committee meeting. And if Farkel were the presiding elder, i'd be df'd. Thanks for showing mercy,
Integ.

'Just when I'm about to get out, they keep pulling me back in"- Godfather 3.
This quote does'nt truly apply to me, but just when i am convinced there are absolutely no redeemable qualities about the Borg this really nice elder comes up to me and very calmly tells me how much i am loved and missed at the meetings, to not feel any pressure, and that Jehovah will always be there for me, and that he (the elder) would too. He had a very calm, serene, quality about him. Came off as truly "spiritual". The kind of guy that the rank and file would call "anointed like". This throws me for a loop sometimes, cuz it makes me think..."man ...maybe this is the truth" Or at least maybe it is " A truth". Then i think .."the devil transforms himself into an angel of light" Maybe HE'S the devil being spoke of. There are a couple of others at the Hall that act in this kind, caring, manner, and it always screws with my head. Nobody need respond to this if you don't want, i just thought i'd throw this one out there, and maybe someone else has experienced things such as this...
Thanks,
Integ.

"These things aren't wrong in themselves....."
by undercover inanyone else remember those talks about being materialistic?
i can remember when the brother would go on about owning the latest gadgets, new cars, boats and bigger houses.
it seems they always precluded their remarks with, "these things aren't wrong in themselves...." and then would go on to make a big deal about how unspiritual it would be to own these things.

My last shepherding visit was about me being less "materialistic"...And of course the obligatory "reaching out" for more "privilages". As if they don't take up enough of your time as it is.

Jehovah's Witness BURNOUT
by Ray6 init is a continuous circle of meetings, field service, assemblies, studying and no real enjoyment of life.
the teenagers don't want to be at the boring meetings and assemblies and preaching in the hot sun.
the brothers are tired of saying the same thing on the platform and sisters are burned out trying to work, take care of home and kids and spiritual matters and being a perfect stepfordwife.

Ray6,
I know what you mean. People are getting tired of it all. Everyone..(well.... not EVERYONE). is waiting for some of the hardcore folks to give it up so they can get out without feeling guilty or being shunned. 50 percent are only in in body. It's sad when you see some of the hardliners who have truly trusted in the Org. all their lives, have their hopes dashed for the new system. Imagine the terrible, sick, feeling they get when they realize it's not REALLY the "truth". It really breaks my heart when I see this in their eyes. Their whole life wasted. Outwardly going through the motions, but deep inside knowing they have been duped. It's tragic.

"Following Divine Direction in This Time Of The End." wt 3/5/2014
Jehovah's servants today are faced with a daunting task, the lifesaving work of spreading the good news of God's Kingdom. We have been instructed in the past that the only way to salvation is through Jehovah God's organization, and those whom He trusts, 'The Faithful and Discreet Slave Class"-Matt 23:45. Some unfortunately, have sinfully disregarded this divine admonition and sought to "think for themselves", thus putting their spiritual welfare in jeopardy. Haters of God's Word have sought to point out "errors" of the Faithful Slave, making up lies about what The Slave has written under Divine Guidance. These "Evil Apostates" try to place blame on the "Slave Class" for the rash speculation on the part of certain members of The "Great Crowd", who earnestly await the "Day of Jehovah", but in their eagerness for this day to come have lent a listening ear to the false "teaching's of men". And have "leaned on their own understanding" when reading God's inspired publications. True, at times We have had to make adjustment's in our understanding of certain Bible Truth's, but the "adjustment's in thinking" have been of such a minor and inconsequential nature, that evil criticism of these "adjustments" could have only been precipitated by the evil "agents of Satan" of which we have a "wrestling" with on a daily basis. Sadly, there have also been reports of 'moral sickness" on the part of some leading the flock in this critical time of the end. There have been reports of homosexuality in the parking lots of District Conventions amongst our dear Elders, also reports of Circuit Overseers caught masturbating in the restrooms of our sacred assembly halls, there was even the disturbing report of a District Overseer walking backstage at a District Convention with a strap on dildo attatched to his waist, swinging the dildo in such a manner as to distract some from listening to the glorious truths being presented by that speaker in a divinely inspired talk delivered later that afternoon. Let us not, dear Brothers, be distracted by these minor "imperfections" in our Organization. And keep "holding fast to what is fine" in this time of the end. And continue to avoid "speculation" on when God's glorious day of Wrath" will arrive.
