  Blondie's Comments You Will Not Hear at the 09-28-08 WT Study (SUCCESS)

  by blondie in

  *** km 3/06 p. 1 par.

  (mark 4:26-29) let us now consider three more of jesus' illustrations-the mustard grain, the leaven, and the dragnet.

  when the wts says "god's people" do they mean anyone other than jws?.

  Thanks Blondie.

  .This is another clever way for the society in using double speak. The whole article smacks of "DO MORE! DO MORE!, if you want "THE CARROT" here is how you get it, go out into the field service!

  Success will not be yours unless you not only go out in the field but get those Bible studies, bring them to the hall.

  How are we going to measure your success unless we see visble proof of you out there in service and bringing to the hall new prospects for the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society.

  In order to have success, you must "DO MORE!"

  Economy Fixed. All is A-OK

  why do i get the feeling they are about to tell us all is well?.

  why do i get the feeling they are about to give out a false sense of security?.

  why do i have the feeling we are about to hear the big lie...the "peace and security" announcement?.

  Correct me if I'm wrong. I am of the understanding that many nations in the United Nations owe America Billions of dollars that have yet to be collected. I always pushed for the United Nations to be sent out of New York to another country. Let them handle the finances that it takes to run the UN, security, traffic, diplomatic immunity to laws broken here etc.

  We have spent Trillions of dollars trying to fix the world, when the world owes us Billions. No one seems to understand that many countries are in-debted to us. When will they pay up? When will we collect what is owed us?

  Why does the White House and the Congress always take monies they don't have from us, the John Doe's of main stream America? In stead this country should demand what is owed it, or else stop trying to invade and then fix what can't be fixed in other countries.

  It is high time to focus here domestically, to take care of our own.

  Man Goes In Hospital For Circumcision, Docs Remove Penis Instead!

  a kentucky man went into the hospital for the procedure only to realize the doctors amputated his penis instead!

  the kentucky man was told afterward that cancer was noticed and because of that, the doctors decided to simply remove the appendage.

  they are being properly sued.

  Wouldn't the doctor have to consult his family before removing it? A phone call, someone in the waiting room.

  VOTE YOUR "SILVER BULLET" QUESTION

  by V in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i'm quizzing all my sources for the ultimate "silver-bullet" question for a jw at your door.

  the best questions will be used in a video series on watchtower comments.

  the goal is to help people respond to jws.. the question must be direct and designed to open the jw mind, not necessarily to win an argument.. i would prefer to avoid doctrinal debate such as trinity, cross, even thiest/athiest subjects.

  "V" I would ask two "Silver Bullet" questions from Don Cameron's book, Captives Of A Concept.

  1 ) What Is The Most Important Scripture In Watchtower Theology? Ans. Matthew 24:45-47

  2 ) What Is The Most Important Event In Watchtower History? Ans. Matthew 24:47. Jesus' decision to appoint them as his faithful and discreet slave, his organization, in spring of 1919.

  I doubt that most rank and file member could answer those two questions correctly. Maybe some Elders couldn't even answer those two questions.

  Most important scripture in their theology and most important event in their history.

  How Do You Deal With Elders?

  by minimus in

  if an elder or elders demanded that they wanted to talk to you, what would you do?.

  if the elders began "questioning" you, how would you deal with them?.

  Minimus, The Elders won't dare try me. They have not bothered to call or visit me when I went inactive. Since doing the fade, they have not contacted me at all. Since moving away, not a word from them. I have one very close friend who lives near the headquarters and knows and sees our elders and yet not a word about me from them.

  The question for them is: How do we deal with this elder that all in the congregation loved. Their answer, leave him alone, don't open up a can of worms.

  NOVEMBER 1 WATCHTOWER - DOES IT SAY THAT NON DUBS MAY BE SAVED?

  by BluesBrother in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  a certain witness,kind of close to me,is insistent that this article confirms her conviction that the wt teaches that jehovah will judge hearts at the "end" and both j w's and non j w's may be saved ....i say that it teaches the opposite.

  what do you think?

  how do you read it?.

  Blues, when everything is said and done, what the Watchtower teaches has no foundation. However they have always taught that only Jw's will be saved. They are the masters of double speak.
