  Money to Org

  by truthlover in

  2. friends

  i know this has been talked about to death but this week our loving faithful and discreet slave wrote a letter to all congregations in canada - keep 1500.00 a month in congregation expense account each month for the next three months coverage,(4500.00 in all) 5000.00 for any problems that may arise but send rest into them.

  so aren't we lucky to have 9500.00 still left in the account!

  the elder reading the letter indicated it was for the kingdom hall building work!!!.

  Is this a successful marriage ?

  by The Rebel in

  a korean man named lee jin-gyr fell in love with a life sized pillow called a " darkimakura" .

  the pillow has the image of a cartoon character named fate testarossa on it from an animated cartoon mahon shaojo.

  the 28 year old man takes the pillow with him everywhere and they eventually married.. this is part of a growing subculture of men in japan who engage in relationships with pillows that have cartoon characters on them.

  GB Members: What's the Story?

  by Cold Steel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  over the past few decades i've met many individual jws, but i've always been curious about the gb members themselves and about service at bethel.

  first, do gb members fraternize with regular rank and file members or do they only sell out each other?

  when i was a methodist, it didn't take me long to figure out that our minister and his wife were frequently invited to dinner, but i never heard of him actually inviting members to his house for dinner.

  Governing body members? There really isn't much to say in the grand scheme of things. They were simply in the right place at the right time.

  Having Jehovah as a friend.

  by Darkknight757 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've always found it amazing that people can say with such conviction that jehovah is their friend.. we are talking about a "friend" who perhaps daily "tests" us to see if we are his friends.

  all of us have dealt with some form of hardship such as the death of a loved one, chronic illness or whatever.

  it is in these cases that the brothers will tell a person that perhaps it is a test, or that "jehovah knows you're not ready" or some other lame excuse.. do our real friends "test" us to see if we will be loyal to them?

  hey everyone.

  i'm sorry that this isn't a very thought provoking post but i could really use some advice on how to handle this.

  there isn't anyone else in my life i can ask right now because, being dfed, all of my friends are "worldly" and don't know how witnesses function.

  @ BarelyThere:

  What makes you think that after you get reinstated, your family is going to welcome you back with open arms?

  The relationship that you had with your family prior to you being df'd will never be the same.

  Powerball Jackpot up to 1.3 Billion Dollars. Do you think the governing body bought any tickets?

  what if the governing body members bought a ticket or somehow obtained one.

  then the unthinkable happens...they won!

  how would they be able to hide that?

  where losch was the speaker).

  at the end of his talk, here's what he said: .

  @ TheListener:

  Things may have changed. If you give some of the proceeds to the org, you might get them to look the other way.
