within the first few minutes, mr. stewart asked geoffrey jackson if the members of the governing body consider themselves to be god's spokesperson on earth.. his response: "that would be presumptuous of us" (implying that they don't consider themselves to be god's sole channel of communication).. to me, that was the worst lie of about 26 lies he's told during this hearing.
however, mr. stewart missed an opportunity to call out mr. jackson on this bold-faced lie.
he should have asked him to explain why the watchtower magazine teaches otherwise.
Have you ever spoke with someone when you were a JW and years later you see that
person and they tell you, I thought you had lost your mind when you witness to me.
But you walked away at the time thinking to yourself, I really gave a good witness.
A few of my friends told me that, they thought I was nutty as a fruit cake.
The same with Mr Jackson.
imitate the desert god.
yep.
the ca for the upcoming year is entittled "imitate [insert desert god name]" so for the public at large its jesus but *wink wink* we really mean the desert god.
I would love to see a drama on 1 Samuel 18:27.. David took his men and killed
200 Philistines and brought back their foreskin, he was only required to bring
back 100. I would attend that convention just to see how they would spin it.
Can you picture David presenting Saul with 200 foreskins, that would be a hell
of a drama. Little old ladies sitting in the assembly, " what are those small things
they counting on stage, mushrooms? No sister, those are supposed to be foreskins.
Older sister, "what the hell".
about a month ago i posted what had happened to two elderly sisters who were reprimanded by a couple of elders for crying because the jw broadcasting was going to be stopped at the kingdom hall and it was up to each publisher to learn how to use the internet.
if you recall the sisters got together with my mom and talked about it and it resulted in all of them declining to make meals for the pioneers.
here is the link.
this is what i found in the transcript related to the date august 14 2015 (royal comision of australia):.
18 q. and if they don't actively disassociate, then they 19 will be disfellowshipped as apostate?
20 a. no, an apostate is someone who actively goes against 21 what the bible teaches.. this is a half true.
my jw spies tell me that the kingdom halls are empty compared to how they used to be, since i left 5 years ago.
not saying they're empty because of me though.. is that what you are hearing?.
in today's wt study it makes the point that just glancing at the opposite sex is flirting and can lead to sex!.
so are jw's now to wear blinkers?.
also jw's are told to go and confess to the elders if they have any immoral thoughts?!!.
What is truth: give this a try, sister your lips are like a strand of scarlet, your mouth
so lovely, Oh God your hips are right for many children and your breasts are like two
fawns and large. If she say excuse me brother, then tell her cover up my sister.
today as i had the old timey music playing and the song love potion no.
9 came on, i remembered being reproved by a brother at a get together when i sang along to that same song.
oh that song is spiritistic, blah blah.
I guess the song by Marvin Gaye would be a little to much "Lets get it on"....
May not be spiritistic but may get the blood flowing..

I guess Solomon would be DF. Song of Solomon 4:2-5 " your teeth are like a flock
of shorn sheep, your lips are like a strand of scarlet, your mouth is lovely, your
two breasts are like two fawns, Twins of gazelle, which feed among the lilies.
Solomon damn near undressed her before his eyes. The Shulamite woman didn't
do a bad job either, Verse 5:14 his hands is carved ivory Inlaid with sapphires. His legs
are pillars of marble set on bases of fine gold and his mouth is most sweet.
Solomon was a breasts man, he makes that known.LOL
last week, i had requested the elders to put their shepherding concerns in writing and that only one elder visits me because i am uncomfortable with two.
well, today they approached me and said we are not able to write to you and we are going to see you the two of us.
i felt how inconsiderate and disrespectful of individuals the watchtower machinery is.
"Studying the Bible independently leads to Apostasy". That is why they discourage higher education.In other words if you study the Bible independently you will be confused, so much for God's Holy Spirit.....
i am fuming at the moment and my wife has made me so angry.. i live in germany and an ex jw, a friend of mine is also ex jw but does not understand english so i was giving him a rundown on the friday session of the rc with gj.
my wife was in another part of the house but heard my phone ring and so she came to listen, i did not realize this, because when the phone rang i closed two doors between myself and my wife.
she opened the first door and started listening to the conversation.
Why is it we are so calm when pointing out problems in the organization but
JW's go berserk calling people names, really get emotional. If they feel it's a out right lie,
they shouldn't worry about it.. Stay calm my friend..
