  JW.ORG jewellery and pendants?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  how long will it be before witnesses start getting jewellery made up with jw.org as the pendant?.

  can you imagine a nice gold neck chain, with a diamond jw.org hanging from it?.

  or a small ring with the logo on it?.

  one reason for the dumbing down of the org

  by Magnum in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  a lot of us have said that theres been a dumbing down in jw land.

  its just not like it used to be especially a few decades ago.

  it seems to me that if jw are right and the end of the world is near, the spiritual food should get tastier and more nourishing as time goes on, but it's getting more and more bland and less nourishing.

  jw.org getting out of hand

  by Gorbatchov in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it seems the watchtower staff have made a runaway train with the introduction of the mark jw.org.. the combination of using a gadget driven platform and the fact that the common jw is low educated and easely influenced.

  by new occurrings in their religion makes the situation getting out of hand.. proof: gb members wearing jw.org buttons during their speech, gifts with jw.org are given away, umbrellas with the jw.org are available.

  jw.org is more important then god, his son and the gospel.. it's the gadget and the jw.org mark that counts.. i am so happy my grandparents are not confronted with these idiots.. it's a runaway train heading to the end of the track.. gorby .

  I hate it too!

  When you think about it, they are a PRINTING AND PUBLISHING company, after all.

  So the printed word is out of style, must move onto printing and distributing company logo items... to keep the publishing company alive! And the models of the latest logo brand items are the GB!

  Angus, I do believe you are not far off from the truth. West Palm is a wondrful market to invest in, especially if you have a bunch of old folks needing a place to retire.....They WILL make money off this....no doubt.

  I wonder if they will inscribe on the side of the building "millions now living will never die'????? What a crock!

  "If you are considering a multi-family or hospitality property, with some conversion a fine, exclusive apartment complex or resort can be created. Of course, a new extended stay school or retreat would be basically ready to go."

  i am not talking about posters here on this board ( otherwise i wouldn't be here would i) but in general.. si i am talking those ex j.ws in my community and we just dont get on.

  well ok its a bit of an exaggeration to say i don't get on with them, we just dont associate.

  this botherd me at first as i thought we would have much in common, but it wasn't so, and it's just the way it is.

  this topic has been discussed before but it is interesting to look at it in the light of the new book god's kingdom rules.. 1903 news paper sermons.

  1914 photo drama of creation.

  1922 radio.

  Tech49: Mini RC 2014 Review

  by Tech49 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i attended the regional convention (district convention) over the last weekend, and thought i would spend a few minutes putting down some thoughts, for your amusement.

  i will bounce around a bit, as my notes and thoughts were a little craaaaazy.. we met at one of the smaller venues on the west coast, with attendance around 7,000.

  (28 baptized.... <.04%) we were tied in to the international convention in arlington, tx.. my first thought, only about 2 hours in, was how much this sounded like a plain old sales meeting!

  So they are admitting that Rutherford preached "Millions now living WILL never die." Didnt they whitewash that a while ago by claiming it was "Millions now living MAY

  never die." ???? they are flipping it back again.....My God they are such liars they cant get their story straight!!!! Do they mention the millions thing in the new book?

  What new books are released this year?

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  a relative called and said another relative called them and mentioned some book about the life of rutherford and russell.

  is this correct?

  i wouldn't be surprised if they were publishing more 'white washed' information to try to diffuse the facts people are learning when doing real research.

  Hi Nugget! When I saw your post, I thought I had a senior moment! A couple of weeks ago, I was also selling ducks at a local event for the Center for Prevention of Abuse. When I glanced at your title, I thought, “gosh did I post it and FORGOT?!?!?!?!!?‘ Well, two rows over from our duck sales in the non-for-profit-booth were two JW’s with their table. (How do you insert a picture here????)

  Since I was the back-up duck sales person, I had quite a bit of time to watch their table. (was I GLAIRING????) People walked around the table as if it was contaminated. I felt a little sorry for the 2 people there, but then I thought better of it. The only person that I know for sure that stopped by to talk to the Witnesses at the table was a minister looking for food donations for their local pantry….and we all know how that went over! :(

  It wasn’t until the last ½ hour of the 3 hour event, that they moved in front of the table. They tried to talk to the other vendors. Since I was staring, I was waiting for the man to come over to talk to me. (I probably did scare him off with my glaring. But he didn’t, come over-----chicken!

  If he did come over, I was going to say “It’s because of the teachings at YOUR table that I am now at THIS table.” Maybe it was a good thing he didn’t come over, as the poor guy had enough rejection as it was!
