  Possibly a great question to ask JW's since this last week's WT.

  by Crazyguy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so since the type anti-type doctrine has been dropped 'does this mean peter was right when at luke 12 :41 he said the faithful and discreet slave was just a parable?

  '

  Who said that we don't have the most intelligent biblical minds here,

  and we don't go to four or five meeting a week to understand the Bible. LOL

  Good point Crazyguy!!

  as long as shunning continues donations will be slow

  by poopie in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the reasons the watchtower is having problems with donations is because they have refuse to let go of wholesale across the board shunning.

  the average publisher is sick of it and jehovah is withholding his full blessing.

  when you do not show love to fellow humans you run the risk of not being able to show love which i'm turn has a direct relationship to your joy in turn if your not happy your not motivated to donate lots of money to and arrangement you perceive as unloving all you bethel lurkers convey this message to bro letters and rest of gb stop trying to convince fair minded people to support unloving shunning.

  Forgiveness and shunning. After years of shunning when does it turn

  to hate. When do you begin hating your father, mother, sister or brother

  because they refuse to come back to the borg. They tell you, I still love you

  but down deep that love turns to hate for some, others they

  are sick of shunning their daughter, son, sister and brother.

  It is not normal..

  rebel, don't be embarrassed. Class mates I have met over the years tell me they

  thought I went nuts. About 20 years ago there was a gathering of class mates,

  not a class reunion just old friends. They told me we have heard about you,

  a missionary, traveling all over the place. So I went with that, didn't won't to tell

  them I clean toilets, LOL.

  NewYork44m: My high school announce the up coming class reunions on their

  home page.

  LisaRose: you may be surprise what your class mate remember about you, and what

  things will come to mind.

  RoyalFlushPhil: I think at 50 years you so happy to see your class mates are still

  alive, and a lot of us is still taking drugs but legally. You were right about

  class reunions from 5-20 years. The first few years folks boast about their career,

  next few years pictures of their kids, 20 years their kids career, next few

  years divorce, 50th reunion you are looking for that old boy or girl friend from high school.

  Fay: Yes I'm reviewing my yearbook, I hope all will wear name tags. Two years ago

  at a funeral a young lady approached me and ask did I know her. I had no idea who

  she was, I thought some old friend daughter. Boy was I wrong, she was my old girl friend

  who I took to my senior prom, She was stunning.

  Dagney:" in our eyes we still see each other as those 14 yr old kids", so true. Yes

  we are going to have great time.

  The work is speeding up

  by bradford in

  2. experiences

  i don't have a great reference point on my observation other than my local area but i was wondering if this was a widespread thing.

  ... in the last two years in my former congregation there have been 6 people to disassociate for "apostasy," 6 disfellowshipped for various reasons, and numerous ones reproved.

  these are just the ones i have heard about.

  When was the last time someone that had no family members that were JW,

  get baptized, the beginning of a first generation to come into the borg here

  in the USA???

  bradford mention "I don't recall the last one who was found in the ministry".

  That is a good sign...

  How about the hacking off the ear of the soldier and reattaching

  it without surgical tools. Let me just slap that ear back on, oh hell

  it's up side down.

  Why would you want to wake up before the 90s?

  by John Aquila in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if you were a jw in the late 70s into the late 80s you might have been one of those brothers or sisters that just happened to be in the right kingdom hall and with the right people.

  during that time being a jw wasnt too bad if you were able to establish the right connections.

  a person could pioneer for a while and be appointed as a ministerial servant in a year or two and within 5 years you could be an elder in your twentys.
