  Question for those still attending the Kingdom Hall

  by ToesUp in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this a question more out of curiosity, because we have not stepped foot in a kh in 3 years.. how is the attendance at the meetings/assemblies?

  i know the answer will vary due to location.. are you (especially elders) receiving any notification or communication from bethel or co's that there is an upsurge of people that are simply disappearing or out right dis associating?.

  thanks, in advance, for your feedback!

  When I was young 7-8 years old the preacher (Baptist) said something about praying

  in your closet I thought, I'm sure he was referring to Matt; 6;6 "when you pray, go into your room".Well I went into my closet and while praying I found a diamond ring. My older brother had purchase a ring for his girl friend and

  not told our mom. It's funny i was praying for a new bike...

  Interesting article about the evidence of the Jewish Exodus

  by cappytan in

  1. jw

  the reality is that there is no evidence whatsoever that the jews were ever enslaved in egypt.

  yes, there's the story contained within the bible itself, but that's not a remotely historically admissible source.

  i'm talking about real proof; archeological evidence, state records and primary sources.

  Numbers 14:28-30 "all those who were 20 years old and older who have grumbled

  against me,not one shall come into the land".

  Not one body unearth in the desert, not one rebel have ever been found to prove the Jewish exodus.

  So how many grumbled against Moses? Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua were the only exception.

  In 40 years of people kicking the bucket there should be a lot of graves to be found.

  What is so crazy about this proclamation, how many people lived pass 60 in those days.

  Then you have a person turn 20 years old on the day Moses informed them, Sh--t I'm dead.

  And who would continue on the march if they knew they would never reach the promise land.

  Good by folks we are putting down stakes right over the hill, remember the tribe when we raped and killed

  most of the men, that's where we will be. Have fun suckers! Moses is a nut case.

  Would you have married your spouse if you weren't both JWs?

  ok, i've had some wine, but i'm curious.

  objectively speaking, but for the religion, did you have enough in common with your spouse to have met and married as non believers?

  my head.

  We became JW's to save our marriage, what a mistake.There needs to be a law,

  30 years of age before you can wed.

  We know it's below minimum wage, $7.25 an hr. WOW ! Jehovah is cheap. I believe the

  Bible states, "money is a protection". I guess a vow of poverty is not destitution in their eyes,

  they do get three meals and bedding each day. In 1966 I received $64.00 a month in the Army.
