Remember, Satan did not lie to Eve. Jehovah stepped in before Satan's statement to Eve could be fulfilled.
There are so many things wrong with this story. I never totally bought in to it ever.
counties once at war with one another can forgive and move on.
even horrible murderers who killed the family members of someone can be forgiven for the act that they did.. but god, no no no.
no such thing can happen.

so last weekend, the jw's ring the bell and my wife answers.
we live in a heavily spanish neighborhood but don't really speak spanish.
i thought my wife was quite clear that she is a "sister" to them, but maybe the one in charge of the group didn't get the message.
OTWO...At least they didn't run away immediately. Maybe you plated a seed of doubt. Who knows?
i see more people this year in an optimistic mood because of the economy.
will you be spending more money 💰 this year, or less or about the same as last year?.
Who said that the economy is better?
CNN? FOX? MSNBC?
Don't believe everything that you hear or read.
The Governing Body wishes you...
...would donate more often.
i know of some congregations and even circuits that have already met this fate recently.
are there any more to come for certain?.
Good point sir82; it is declining in the developed world.

How
can anyone (in their right mind anyway) say that the org is growing? When you
hear of mergers, dissolutions and consolidations, that is a sign of decline.
You really can’t BS your way out of it.

I knew that contraction has been going on everywhere. I just wasn’t sure if it was completed for now in Ohio.

i ask this because from what i read on this board lately is that they jw`s seem to be very reluctant to engage in conversation with anybody nowadays and are only interested in placing literature at carts.. and if anyone brings up questions in their d2d work that challenge them ( like the arc ) they will promptly excuse themselves and move on.
also didn`t jesus say "this good news of the kingdom would be preached in all the inhabited earth " for a witness ?.
when was the last time you heard a jw speak about "the good news of the kingdom" ?
Since nothing really surprises me anymore, I can see them changing their name. It's been done before.
1300 attendance 11 teenagers baptised (.85 growth) $12,000 expenses.
biggest facepalm moment- teenage pioneer says she pioneers because "the overlapping generation is getting up there in years ,so time is short" as the saying goes "those that don't know history are doomed to repeat it".
very mind numbing day nothing you haven't heard a hundred times before..
To keep up appearances, I wanted to go to the Willoughby assembly with my wife, but she basically told me to stay home.
How 'bout that?!
