  Latest Metal Detecting Find

  by cofty in

  2. physical

  now the harvest is underway up north i can get out for a walk with the metal detector in the evening.

  i am lucky to live on a historic rural estate and i have permission from the landowner to detect.. this is a coin that popped up last night.

  it was only about 2 inches deep and had been tumbling around in the plough soil for the last 750 years.. it is a silver penny of king henry iii.

  in the august broadcast, david splane is shown in a morning worship video.

  i just wanted to focus on the end of the video, were he has this to say:.

  the governing body loves to get together and discuss the bible.

  So my question is this: Who was behind all of these changes? Jaracz and Barr? Of course, most of the changes happened after they died.

  How are you with your temper?

  let's be honest everyone has their limits, their breaking point.

  personally i try to remain placid when provoked, but on occasion i can loose it.

  the last time i lost it was when chelsea came to watford and some chelsea supporters had some how got tickets and were sitting in the home end.

  i just received this news from a bro who has connections in bethel.... .

  bro albert d schroeder died at 10:30 am new york time today at brooklyn bethel...he was 94 yrs old.. he was born on april 7, 1911 in saginaw, michigan and entered bethel service in 1932. he was appointed a member of the governing body on december 18, 1974. bro schroeder's life story appeared in the march 1, '88 wt pages 10-17: entitled: "my life in jehovah's spirit-directed organization.".

  i don't know if the "today" means it was actually today...as i can't be sure when my friend received this news... but anyway, another of the old guys bites the dust.. .

  The Greatest Story Ever Told (or not)

  by Coded Logic in

  2. current

  last year kic 8462852 (tabby’s star) made headlines as a possible - although far fetched - candidate for an alien mega-structure.

  while there isn’t yet any evidence of this audacious hypothesis, i thought it would be a good idea to explain why this star is so unique and also give an update on the current science being done to study the star.

  aliens or not, it’s a fascinating story.

  At this point, everything about the meetings are bad. The talks are not interesting. The brothers and sisters even less so. When I was growing up, I would hear a "good talk" on an occasional Sunday; I haven't heard a good talk in at least a decade. Of course some of that can be attributed to learning TTATT!

  WT uses new Technology ... the Governing Body in 3D

  by RubaDub in

  2. beliefs

  i am not sure how the wt does it or what technology is used.

  but when i look at the jw.org website and look at pictures in the recent publications from the lord's evening meal / last supper, it seems very strange.. i turn on my tv, put on 3-d glasses and the apostles now appear to be current and former members of the governing body.. i turn the tv off, restart it, and it appears to be the same members but now they have changed seats.. very interesting.. rub a dub.

  the watchtower november 2016, page 16, par.

  "some may feel that they can interpret the bible on their own.

  however, jesus has appointed the ‘faithful slave’ to be the only* channel for dispensing spiritual food.

  Each one of us does well to ask himself, ‘Am I loyal to the channel that Jesus is using today?'

  Translation: ‘Am I loyal to the governing body?’
