i asked 2 elders on seperate occasions (because i'm careful) - the following scenario:.
a man comes to the elders and asks if he can take blood fractions for clotting since he is a bleeder.
the elders tell him it's up to his conscience.
Also a prime example of why the WT Society and there minions are a bunch of selfish moroms...
Someone can donate blood and a JW can benefit BUT can a JW donate blood to help another person out???
And, I thought they believed that once blood left the body it should be poured onto the ground. So How do those witlesses get their fractions, with a spade?
jehovah could read the hearts of david and bath-sheba and see their genuine repentance.
taking.
such a factor into consideration, he judged them accordingly, in a merciful and loving manner.. .
So, Joe Hoova was loving and merciful toward Dave and Bathsheba, yeah well, where was the love and mercy towards the innocent little child? What did God Almighty see in it's heart?
It's all a crock of made up rubbish to keep a bunch of bronze age goat herders in line.
The laugh is some people really believe tripe like this has real meaning for us today.
once again my wife and i were sent the " witness only " wt version by our lurking jw friend that they study at wt study meetings.
and once again wt society is showing very controlling tendencies towards it's jw members.. do any of you remember the " old days " in the 1970's or early 1980's when witnesses used to have goody night after book study ?
or you would have a " potluck picnic " with about 30 to 40 people getting to know one another to draw close as friends outside the confines of the kingdom hall ?
Good for nothing slaves in the watchtower workhouse.
you don't have to answer all of them at once.
i would be happy to see your answers to any of these questions.. remember, the inspired apostle peter gave this direction in the holy scriptures: "always [be] ready to make a defense before everyone that demands of you a reason for the hope in you, but doing so together with a mild temper and deep respect.
" (1st peter 3:15).
So many of the JW teachings can't be defended or explained using ONLY the Bible...
...that's why they use the word EVIDENTLY so much.
sunday evening there were a group of sisters talking on their walk back to the carpark.
"so if the generation just means that your life overlapped with people who were around in 1914, couldn't that just go on forever?".
""i guess...." (looked at each other confused, then at me as i walked past).. to which i said: "oh yes, remember the days when the generation was a simple 70 years from 1914?".
Most Dubs don't think too deeply, this generation change...they may not understand or even like it, but what the heck, it's "New Light" and that proves they have the truth, at least in their minds.
this tripe from the june 15 tower.
how many of the witness kids "and adults" get into trouble right within the congregation.
just recently talked to an old friend still in whose witness son in law left his daughter for another and subsequently his daughter got hooked up with that ladys husband.
In for 30 out for 20...OUT is way better. If there are any emotional scars they were inflicted by the WT not the world!

twenty+ year veteran japanese bethelites sent to the field as special pioneers.
i don't have the exact number laid off.
however, there are a total of 550+ members at the ebina branch, so if the trend reflects the same as in the u.s. and europe branches, then we can assume at least between 10% - 20%.. in order to counterbalance the need for a work force but without having to incur expenses by housing and feeding them, japan bethel is considering opening the door to "commuting bethelites".
No love or compassion here, just the Iron Fist sans the velvet glove.
jwoods is sixty years old this morning.. btw, the actual name is james.
