Why do the 'friends' believe Elders over Experts
by FriendlyFellaAL inthis is something i've been wondering about lately due to personal experiences.
my mother and stepfather (she's a jw, he is not) have been having some marital problems of late and instead of seeking out the advice of a marriage counselor or some similar specialist in the field, they have chosen to seek help through one of the elders in her congregation.
i'm completely surprised by this, yet i know i shouldn't be.

FOURTY YEARS FROM NOW
by ballistic ini see 1.16 million witnesses world-wide.
the number of remnant will still be around 8000. the generation that saw 1914 will all be dead.
food shortages will just about be ending and the society will use the "earthquakes" logic to explain this.

Is Bill Bowen "cleansing the temple?"
by blindfool ini borrowed another tape recording from my mothers church.. in this sermon the pastor described how the jews were obsessed with their temple.
so much so that they really started worshipping the temple itself.
one obsession was how clean the temple had to stay.

Objectivity and This Site
by Eutapro ini must say that as a neutral scientific observer of this site--it seems that things are kind of one-sided here.
i thought this was a board with both devout jws and ex-jws on it.
on further reflection it appears that this medium of communication should probably be called ex-jw.com.

The Messiah Will Return in our life time
by U.2.K. ini dont know about the rest of you guys, but i feel it, i can feel that that "peace & safety" sign is gonna get on a worldwide scale very soon(5-8 years).. i also remeber the first time that leader from afgan said peace & safety, i started to cry and for some reason, i felt very weird but happy and joyful at the same time.., plus right now, i feel funny, and i believe i am about to cry right now, maybe the holy spirit is around me or something, but i'm feeling the same way i felt when i had that dream about armageddon.... .
draw close to jehovah and his son christ jesus, and y'all will understand what i'm saying> (red words/king james version/christ words> """"" surely i come quickly"""""""" .
i believe christ will come in our life time, and im going ignore those who try to overthrow my faith and watch'em fall...
