  Reading Captives of a Concept: Interesting what i read in CH3

  by DS211 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  surely jesus would have noticed what they had been teaching about his second coming, or invisible presence as they prefer to call it.

  matthew 24:3 37 .

  today they teach that he returned to begin his second coming in 1914. but the proclaimers book explains that this was not what they were teaching before, during and for many years after jesus' inspection in 1918-1919. on pages 46 and 47 it explains that in 1876... .

  Will the 2014 Memorial partaking YOUR last?

  by prologos in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  possibly yes.

  many wt doctrine dissenters have privately taken the bread&wine on that night for years.

  one reason is that the new covenant is not for heaven, but for forgiveness of sin, and jesus served the emblems to those with an earthly hope.

  if so, what is your experience?

  i've seen only a few talks by gb members and would like to hear what they're like.

  are they personable, aloof, humble, arrogant?

  I haven't personally met one, but Stephen Lett joined us this past weekend at a couple of assemblies in lower Alabama. He wasn't anything special, just a regular brother like all the rest of the speakers. No extra holy spirit. It made my blood boil when he started talking about apostates and said "Did you know a member of the GB turned apostate?" Shame on him for speaking of Ray like that.

  JW. Org logon to email them

  by sherrie11 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it doesn't allow anyone to register.

  are they to scared of the feedback from those who know ' the truth about the truth'.

  it seems to me they should not even have a contact us function (especially if your main form of contact is email, which is the norm for 2013) who designed this thing................. are the elders and the privileged jw's sent their logon details... i would love to know the secret squirrel shite.

  Ditto what piztjw said.

  When you register, you start with just the CC donations, but you have a special code listed at the bottom of your profile page. The code allows your congregation secretary to associate your profile with the local congregation and assign you roles within the congregation. The secretary can download all the letters that the society sends to each congregation, since these are no longer mailed. Forms for congregation business can be downloaded. The accounts servant can submit donations. Congregation FS statistics can be submitted. I'm sure there's lots more, but that's all I've seen.

  AbleBodiedMan, the mormons are running a close second. They are published in 177 languages, but beat us with 15,000,000 members, roughly. With their rate of growth, they'll have double our membership with only a few decades head start. It would seem that Jehovah is blessing them more in many respects if growth and works are the deciding factors.

  The LDS have been amassing land - now owning multiple colleges, sanctuaries, and 2% of the state of Florida. They have more community enhancement projects. Their members even follow some crazy doctrines like us. Don't discount the Mormons.
