  Millions now Living Will Never Die

  by skin in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  this is the title of a watchtower book published 95 years ago in 1920 by j f rutherford.

  it still gets an occasional mention at meetings about how it was a turning point in the history of the watchtower.

  but how many witnessess today can answer this question.who are these millions of people alive in 1920 that would never die?

  They may add, "Millions now living will never overlap."

  I read a post here that said: "Millions now dead were promised they would never die."

  I wish I could remember who to give credit to.

  "Jehovah's spirit is being blocked in the congregation"

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so, how many times have we heard this expression (or a variation of it):.

  "jehovah's spirit seems to be blocked here in the congregation...perhaps he is bringing something to light...etc".

  it seems that the org often uses this expression, and links it with the "fact" that god wont bless a cong as much,(or at all) if there is "stuff" or "sins" being carried out.. so, why is it then that the cong i am in is experiencing its best years of activity in all aspects?

  If it weren’t for your apostasy, Stuck, your congregation would be able to report several more return visits and at least one more study.

  Do you see what a drag you are?

  Got ratted out for celebrating Halloween...

  one of two things will happen.

  i'll get disfellowshipped and never have to worry about being "told on" again for living a normal life, or; they won't do anything.. either way, it's freeing and i feel relieved... it will be sad if i get disfellowshipped but i've come to terms and made peace with it as much as can be expected.

  it's a huge weight to have off.. was told on a week ago and haven't heard anything.

  Simon: Just lie and then it's your word against someone elses.

  Sucky advice sucks!

  Cognac, don't diminish yourself by lying.

  (Curious to see if I get disfellowshipped and shunned for speaking out against the leadership of this site.)

  i'm just bored.

  i'm currently (right now) running a mic up and down the aisles, recognising the faulty logic, one line platitudes, and indoctrination techniques.

  i like posting while on active duty.

  Eh.... I smell a trumped up excuse by the government to go after a group they have publicly demonstrated hatred toward. Not that I blame them... but....

  ... Eh!

  2. friends

  i have words that irritate me and not always without reason.. my latest hate is the word: 'solutions' as used by so many businesses in their title these days.

  y'know, 'something innane business solutions' and such balderdash.. i loathe that word now.

  arrrrggghhhhhh!

  I just don't understand why churches make exceptions for different "sins" and not others?

  This has been the lead angle in my conversations with the guys at work - all straight, a few rednecks, one severely so.

  "But gay is against the bible."

  I dare them to pursue that line of argument until they explain all the titty bars in town (which many of them frequent) or the 200 laws on the books that allow them to trade their wife in for a newer model without the scriptural divorce allowance for adultery. I ask them to spend just five minutes talking about how wrong these things are and how they would like to see them expunged from society and how we should legislate the citizenry into compliance with these things that are "against the bible" and then I will hear their righteousness on the gay issue without suspecting a hint of disingenuousness.

  Lets hope the G.B.never learn from their mistakes , refusing to comply with court instructions.

  by smiddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  with the recent case of the watchtower hierarchy defying the court to either produce documents relating to child sex abuse claims within their organisation, and also refusing to produce a governing member to appear in court to answer questions , not only shows their arrogance and defiance of the law , they also show their contempt of the judicial system of the usa .. arent they supposed to be obeying the bible injunction ?

  " pay back ceasers things to ceaser ?".

  "when you are hailed before the courts , i will put words in your mouth ?".

  MINDBLOWN666 - I gather when JW's are called to court they can give the court system the bird!

  It would behoove the brotherhood to follow the faithful slave.

  JW making music videos now?

  by adjusted knowledge in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm not sure if this is new since it is hard to keep up with the ever changing jw.

  it is morphing so much.

  i went to jw.org tv video for november and around 53 or 54 minutes into the broadcast the gb guy introduce a music video called "we won't forget you".
