If you call me Mike I would keep walking, that's not my name. I wonder do
Jehovah know who they(JW's) are praying too. It's a insult to God, just any name that's close enough.
God would have been great, most people use that name.

i have been reading about the early history of russelites/jws and in the beginning, it seems the organization was formed and headed by quite a few educated people.
lawyers, doctors, businessman.
you could buy voting rights within the organization for $1000, which by today's standard would be somewhere between $15,000 and $20,000, something most of us do not have on hand, unless you are highly educated and/or wealthy.
Today you don't even question whether you are going to college. It's the
sign of the times. Poor JW youths.
i just "da'd" friday.
i've been posting on here for years but do to anonymity, i had to start with a new account.
would love to connect with anyone that i may know.
Congratulations, we applaud you. Temecula is a beautiful city, especially since the Pechanga
Casino open.
what they do when they are having crush on someone?.
how do they act?.
*new in this world, so need to hear your opinions.
thought it would be good to share what ones take to deal with the meetings.
I use to drink after the meetings, never thought about before. A great idea, spirits before
the meeting in order to give a spiritual talk or to get in the mood spiritually.
romans 13 : 1-4 clearly states that the superior authorities are an arrangement from god , defy them and you are working against the arrangement of god at your own peril.. christians are to be obedient to the superior authorities ,"for their is no authority except by god , the existing authorities stand placed in their relative positions by god .therefore he who opposes the authority has taken a stand against the arrangement of god ".

4 :8-10 shows that all the kingdoms and governments are under satan`s control , jesus never disputed that claim .

WT online library; "How to know whom to obey". This will leave no doubt who to
obey, the GB. Sorry, obey Jehovah I think not sure.

Reporting child abuse to the Superior Authorities, hummm.
okay, so at the "imitate their faith" ca there was a special speaker from the gb.
and he started discussing psalms 1:1 and how we today could "sit in the seat of scoffers".
he then mentioned that many bros. and sisters criticize the org and think they are so smart by researching online.
How does he know ???? So stupid if I was a JW I would think, what could they be criticizing
about the truth. And researching on line is a dead give away. LOL
just curious...is anyone hearing the older/infirm ones speaking out to others on how they are being treated in the congregation?
without giving anything away, i have spoken to so many older ones (some are sickly or can't drive in the evening or can't drive at all) who can't make it to all the meetings, assemblies, etc., that are complaining on how they are being treated by the more righteous ones in the hall.
the ones i have spoken to make the comment that it seems to be the younger elders that have less empathy and concern for these ones.
A sister who contact my family in the 60's (door work), my mother first, thank God my mom said
no thanks to the truth. Well she was able to get to my sister and her husband, then me(when I got married) and
my brother. So this sister became part of our family. As years past and the sister aged, no husband
and 1975 past she was taken in by my sister's family. For over 15 years I never heard her speak of her family.
My ex sometimes would take her to the KH, when my sister was unable to do so. So she live with my sister and
her husband and their 4 kids until she passed.
Well to our surprise when she became ill she contact her son who lived in England. He came to visit her and went back to England, and that was it. I don't believe he came to her funeral.
