…Is Jehovah Actively Exposing The Wicked Watchtower Society In The Child Abuse Cases? (Ezekiel 36:12)

by MADMARY in

ezekiel 36:3-15 tells us about a “bad report” that would go out among the nations about apostate israel.

verse 12 of this chapter shows us that jehovah takes a direct hand in this affair in fighting against his own people.

so we can ask, are we today seeing god’s active hand against the watchtower society in exposing the child abuse cases among jehovah’s witnesses around the world?

MM - Then the WT must have 'genuine relevance" and be an active player in universal events etc ...etc

Medical marijuana

by Mikethegreek in

hey everyone.... i'm new to this but i would like to run my experience with medical marijuana past you.

i'm 48 years of age and have been in the truth for my whole life.. i suffer from ankylosing spondilitis and have for many many years.

it's a debilitating form of spinal arthritis and the symptoms of this auto-immune disorder affect more than my spine.

1 - Made a 'tea' from the seeds etc which my wife used for the nausea during Chemo - It worked very well and she did not get 'high'

2 - I have a very small syringe full of a version which is like thick black tar - I take a rice-grain sized amount when I feel stressed and or down [I have GAD - Depression] and it just "takes the edge off" the stress I feel [I do not get High......sadly lol] + taken at night I sleep like a baby and wake up as I always do like a light switch - no dopey feelings or any side effects.

Of course ...to each his own ...do your own research.

The stuff is illegal in my country for recreational use but can be gotten if prescribed.

I got mine via the Health Shop and there is a Thriving market of people using it for general day to day health - from ALL walks of life/

Personally I would not imbibe anything that involves smoke particles into the lungs etc

My wife watched some of this and was galled by that Nazi Losch's comments. Also the diatribe about LGBT people.

something i found on facebook..... a bit of interesting history reading .... enjoy ...they used to use urine to tan animal skins, so families used to all pee in a pot & then once a day it was taken & sold to the tannery.......if you had to do this to survive you were "piss poor".

but worse than that were the really poor folk who couldn't even afford to buy a pot......they "didn't have a pot to piss in" & were the lowest of the low.

the next time you are washing your hands and complain because the water temperature isn't just how you like it, think about how things used to be.

Great share ! Nice and positive too.

Dung floors are still used in rural dwellings here in Sourh Africa.

And our farmer family had dung floors throughout their house on the farm in an area called Warmbaths.

May i assure you that there was no unpleasant odour once it was laid and had dried out - in fact it gave of a sweetish "planty" fragrance.

You then applied floor polish to it and of course it was warm in winter !

I was TMO for 15 years and RC speaker for many years - it definitely has had a reasonable ++ spinoff - I have also managed to launch a business in Public Speaking and Presentation Skills Training based largely on the skills gained there.
