  The Gall Of WT To Give This Advice To Pioneers:

  by JW GoneBad in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  this past week's wt study lesson was entitled: 'pioneering strengthens our relationship with god'.. under the subheading 'remaining in the full-time service' in par 14 the wt has the nerve to give this admonition to pioneers: .

  'desiring to learn from jesus' example, a pioneer does well to keep in mind that the more material things he has, the more he will have to maintain , repair, or replace.'.

  i don't think the gb or anyone in the writing department has the freedom to speak on giving adivce on the matter of 'material things' given the fact that wt has close to a billion dollars in real estate and loads of money in various bank accounts; given the fact that gb is currently building themselves new living quarters with who knows what sort of comforts and other amenities.

  First off, please remain calm. The society uses all of their properties to further the teaching of God, let many pioneers live their rent free, they utilize many of their properties to print lititure and give them to millions for free worldwide. They don't just sit there on their asses smoking crack and bull shitting around squadering their money and keep it for themselves, they use it to further spreading GODs word.

  what they said in the paragraph is that for many to pioneer they need to simplify their lives so they don't have to spend their time worrying about someone being their to watch their 50" tv; instead they should be out preaching the word.

  Is it just me or has this site become a Believer/Atheist warzone?

  by BU2B in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i enjoy the odd thread about evoloution vs creation, etc but lately it seems that a large percentage of threads here devolve into fighting between atheists and theists and distract from what most of us here see eye to eye on, the wt and related things.

  i wish things could be more civil here and fr people to realize that people will never see eye to eye on the topic.

  it gets so tiring to see the contstant bickring and fighting on those threads.. they seem to go on page after page but very little of substance is discussed seeing as the existence or non existence of a god can be proven by anyone.

  Letter I wrote to the person the caused me to be disfellowshipped

  by jwfacts in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  a thread on another forum reminded me of a letter i wrote to the person that went to the elders and started the proceedings to have me disfellowshipped.

  i stopped believing in the religion when i was 25 but continued going for about ten years.

  i finally started to fade at 35, but about 6 months after i had stopped going to meetings, a person wrote a letter to the elders about my website, which at the time was anonymous.

  INTERESTING QUOTE FROM A DISTRICT OVERSEER

  by The Searcher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i personally recorded a district overseer's statement he made in a talk, regarding calling someone a "despicable fool".

  (matthew 5:22) .

  he basically equated that term with calling someone an apostate!!!

  Dear Friends Of JWN,

  The time is now. It is time to prepare for the "Grand Climax". What "Grand Climax" you may ask? It is now the time to withdrawal from the Watchtower Society. Free yourselves from the cult like signs and the mis teachings that the Jehovah's Witnesses Teach. The longer you stay the harder It will be to get out.

  EXAMPLE: I myself just alerted the body of elders that I will be stepping away from my position in the congregation.

  You may have not heard this before but did you know the Watchtower is against splitting families apart. That's why they tell you to shun a family member when they stop going to the meetings. (Oh, how hypocritical) So many mis teachings in the past have set so many free. So ask yourself are you really willing to give up many years of your life to worship these false teachings the the Watchtower and the Governing Body have told each and every one of you? I hope not. So let it be our determination to help and free many people away from the Watchtower Society and Free them from the Governing Body's false teachings. So BEHOLD! THE "GRAND CLIMAX" IS AT HAND!
