  I Believe The SixScreens Mystery Bethelite

  maybe i'm naive or just plain stupid, but i believe what the mystery bethelite says.

  also, i don't think it's out of the ordinary that mary was concerned about going to the bathroom in the kingdom hall.. remember, the elder at bethel who was arrested because he took pictures of people using the bathroom?

  that was hard to believe but it was absolutely true.

  Spanish JW's Upset Over Bethel Move

  by Gary1914 in

  on april 1, 2009 a letter was sent from the governing body of jehovahs witnesses to congregations in spain informing them that the printing, shipping, and storage of watchtower publications would be discontinued at the madrid branch office.

  the letter expressed confidence that the spanish witnesses would, despite the move, continue to generously support the world wide work and ends with an appeal to remain united under the direction of the witness leadership.. at a glance, this story may seem like a non-issue, perhaps, just another example of reorganization and consolidation within a multinational corporation; however, the dissolution of the printing branch has caused considerable hard feelings among some of jehovahs witnesses in spain.

  to understand the reason we must first look at the history behind the branch office and external factors that some feel prompted this abrupt move.. early in their history, jehovahs witnesses began printing their trademark watchtower magazines and associated books and tracts in-house at their bethel headquarters in brooklyn, new york.

  Just Hours After Debate McCain Broke His Promise

  by Gary1914 in

  during the debate last night, obama and mccain both promised to stop the negative advertisements and to concentrate on the issues.. no sooner had the words came out of mccain's mouth when mccain and palin began sponsoring automated phone calls in key states informing voters of obama's connection with bill ayers, a terrorist.

  it is the nastiest sort of phone call meant to sway voters done in a underhanded way, supposedly secretive manner.

  really disgusting.. pundits have said that if mccain loses he can at least leave the race with his dignity.

  A claim to Beth Sarim

  by Gary1914 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my great grandmother, who has been in the truth forever, just told us a funny story and i thought i would share it with all of you.. we were discussing judge rutherford and she said that she was living in california at the same time as rutherford was living in beth sarim.

  the papers at that time ran an article about rutherford and that beth sarim had been purchased especially for moses, abraham and other old faithful servants.. well, one day a hobo came to the door and claimed that he was abraham and that he came to take possession of his home.

  i don't know what rutherford was expecting but instead of welcoming this "prince" to his new home he called the authorities to take him away.

  hello everyone.. i don't if this has been posted before.

  if it has i apologize, but maybe my version will add to what is already known.. my brother is a district overseer.

  the society sometimes places conferences calls to do's, co's and other overseers, especially when it is something that they do not want to put in writing.
