  Having Jehovah as a friend.

  by Darkknight757 in

  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.

  No Sports Cars Please!

  by snugglebunny in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i read on a jw forum that jw's came in for disapproval if they drove either sports cars or 2-door cars.

  the reasoning was that a driver couldn't easily take fellow dubbies out preaching in such a vehicle.

  was that ever official policy or just local nonsense from a grumpy po?.

  Before my current car, I never had a 4-door. I had two convertibles and two hardtop 2-door cars. Nobody ever said anything to me directly.

  Why settle for 1.5B when you can have 3B?

  If you live in the USA, are you buying a ticket? What would you do with all of that money?
