2015 special talk outline-A PROMISE OF PERFECT FAMILY HAPPINESS

by suavojr in

jw's are such a happy group .

let's see how this talk addresses the internal issues that we find within the jw's such as:.

So starting with jehobers own family, why wasn't it perfect and happy? How can jehober expect imperfect men to have perfect, happy families when he doesn't? Or is a this a classic case of; "do as I say , not as I do"?

From the very beginning of the bible, there have been absolutely no perfect, happy families. In fact the opposite is true. Even so called divinely blessed men had families that were pretty messed up. These special talks, of which I have given 5 during my elder years, are so empty and lame. The only thing "special" about thes talks is that they are labeled "special".

7 Reasons Why Babylon the Great was Jerusalem

by Tiresias in

authors david chilton (1987) and james stuart russell (1878) propose that the revelation is primarily a prophecy of the destruction of ancient jerusalem by the roman armies.

the revelation is jerusalem's armageddon (mountain of assembled roman troops).

i see the revelation as a war siren warning the first century christians of the imminent destruction of the city.

JW's and depression

by FeelingFree in

jw
friends

i was wondering how many of you suffered badly with depression when you were in "the truth" and if you feel your depression was related to being part of the organisation?

are you better now you have left or still have issue's?

whatever your experience's i would be very intrested to know (if you feel you can talk about it.).

Afrikanman--

Your experience is eerily like my own. It all culminated about 3 years ago. I resigned as an elder about 5 years ago. Been a dub 53 years an elder off and on for 20 years. Tried to commit suicide and spent 3 week in a psych ward. No longer on meds and have found true peace in the real world. Still trying to get my loving wife out and my 4 terrific children are just hanging in there but not doing much.

Yes leading an unnatural life with an unnatural view of life definitely led me to the point of desperation. I'm 99% faded an go once in a while for my wife's sake. No fs for 3 years now and no shepherding calls yet.

You will recover and be a better person once you do. Peace and happiness be with you my brother.

2014 AGM announcement rumour

by yadda yadda 2 in

from barbara anderson, former watchtower headquarters researcher and writer, on another recent thread:.

it is expected that at the 2014 annual meeting, usually held the first saturday in october, will serve watchtower leaders well to cover-up all the 100-years of prophetic nonsense.

rumor has it they are going to celebrate their 100-years of announcing the kingdom in an adroit way by featuring a move of "great" significance to do with the expansion of the governing body to an "apostolic" 12 or some other fantasy idea.. .

Could it be that in order to keep the self serving myth about the glorious GB going for many more decades even centuries, possibly 'new light' (tm) may be revealed helping JW's to 'clearly' (tm) see that the number 144,000 is 'aparently' (tm) referring only to the FDS{=GB}. Thus the end may not come until that full number of 144,000 GB members has been attained. (lol--lol)

Plastic buckets in Paradise

by Sour Grapes in

jw
friends

i remember one picture of a pretty little girl holding a plastic bucket in paradise next to a tame lion.. i asked my wife if there is going to be polution in paradise?

of course the answer is no!!!!!..

i asked her where did the plastic bucket come from?

eyeuse2badub

Plastic buckets will "magically" appear just like manna "magically" appeared. Oh, and don't worry about the animal crap. It will "magically" disappear the way all signs of 3 million people trecking through the wilderness of Sinai for 40 years "magically" disappeared.

Love all the people...

by new hope and happiness in

there are a lot of topics about religiouse hatred, so on a personal level why do you find it difficult to love or like individuals?.

.

eyeuse2badub

For many of us who have been raised as a JW, it is difficult to love or like individuals because the WTBTS 'poisoned the well' so to speak. Point in case, if our relatives were not JW's, we were basically told that we should not associate with them, i.e. not like/love them because they are part of Satan's system and will lead us astray. The same held "true"with anyone else who was not a JW. So being raised the JW way, we 'isolated' ourselves to an extent and it's damn hard to like/love someone we don't know. Once I woke up and discovered that there is a brave "new world" (tm) out there, I have found it very easy to like/love others. 99.9% of the folks that I have met and now associate with are very likeable, nice people. Learning ttatt is certainly a 'life changing event".

Who's the King of the North & South now?

by prophecor in

back in the old days i used to hear talk about these kings.

are they still teaching anything about these kings in daniel as it pertains to the " time of the end?".

.

eyeuse2badub

Mute point now. Just do as you are told regardless of common sence. Prophecy and doctrine mean nothing anymore and that's why the GB don't dwell on it any more.

Aren't Watchtower literature trolleys and stands illegal?

by jwfacts in

in many places it is illegal to set up a stand and sell things in public without council approval.

so why is it that jws can set up their trolleys in busy public areas without being asked to move on?

i saw this article this morning about muslims being asked to stop handing out leaflets in parramatta, because it is illegal.

eyeuse2badub

To me trolly "witnessing" just cheapens the reputation/image of JW's. They are like the organ grinders with the cute little monkeys. (Just make sure you report your hours brothers)
