sex before marriage

@Heaven: Their reason for coming 4ward is bcos they wanted to restore their relationship with JV and maintain a clean conscience.

Comments like these make me want to puke. Maintain a clean conscience with JV? Didn't Lot offer his two virgin daughters to a mob of perverts to do as they pleased with them to honor JV? Later he (Lot) got bombed with alcohol and ended porking his two virgin daughters in incest. Where was his clean conscience. The bible is full of crap like this. I bet that the elders love the stories told to them by the weak minded couples that feel guilt about doing something that is a normal impulse with our bodies. Freak'n perverts. I personally have known about an elder committing adultery with an MS wife who went to him for counsel and trying to cover it until it was just to obvious to conceal. Damn controlling cult!!!

Where To By Crisis of Conscience

maybe this information has surfaced here before, but if so it is worth repeating periodically:.

a couple weeks ago i was shocked after doing a google search for crisis of conscience when it brought up amazon with four distributors selling the book in soft-cover for collector prices between $169.95 us to over $650, with only 4 copies available.

hard cover was not available new, and used copies were being sold for over $50-75.

I have one copy of Crisis of Concienous and one of In Search of Christian Freedom in paperback version that I bought quite a few years ago. Both in excellent condition. I paid about under $35.00 for both of them. Anyone interested can have them for what I paid for them plus pay your own shipping. Don't need or want them anymore. I have just one of each not more. If you are interested... just hit me up and lets figure out how to get them to you.

"Any man who reads toomuch and uses his brain too little falls into the lazy habits of thinking." - Albert Einstein ~ Ecclesiates 12:11 reads that too many books has no end and is burdensom to the brain. I guess that now I understand why the Tower keeps so many books around. It keeps the membership from thinking.

Nathan Knorr's own circuit assembly badge?

by FatFreek 2005 in

for what it's worth, the following image was sent to me in an anonymous email so i can't testify to its authenticity.

she (or he, since it wasn't signed) says he/she was one of the bethel housekeepers and spotted the name tag in a waste basket.

at that time, the early 70's, knorr was regarded by many, including this person, (though disliked by even many bethelites) as god-like.

The badge alone suggests that the Watchtower was leading it's member's into thinking that something would occur in the 1970's. Something that they have denied and passed it on to "Over Zealous" membership.

The very WORST and BEST places to find out what the Bible REALLY teaches?

by Fernando in

worst - religion/ists (pharisees, sanhedrin/gb, ruling religious clergy class).

best - direct from the source (our heavenly father, his son, the holy spirit, john 14:26; 15:26; 16:13; 1 john 2:27) by pursuing their full and counterintuitive "unabridged gospel" message to all humans (rom 10:16,17; isa 61:1; john 8:36).. next best - spiritually strong persons of faith (acts 8:12,26-40, especially verse 35).

your thoughts, suggestions, websites, videos, constructive criticism, quotes - anyone?.

I would really like to love Christ if I could find any historial evidence for him. Sorry Jesus..... The Good News was really bad with P&R. Just Say'n

Bro. Lett (Governing Body) borrowed illustration from an outspoken WT critic

by fugue in

we're discussing this over on jwr:.

http://www.jehovahswitnessrecovery.com/phpbb3/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=12805.

a jdub has posted a video of a talk that stephen lett, a member of the governing body, just gave at a special assembly day in iowa.

The Watchtower has used pictures also. There was an article the I read once where a photograph was lifted from a modeling magazine and the female model was introduced into an Awake or WT as living in paradise. Not sure were I read but I did. It was an article about subliminal messages through WT drawings. They have been found to copy material many times and present is as their own.

2011 Yearbook= BEARDS are still for non-Witnesses ONLY!!!! Beard Fear?

by Witness 007 in

1960's the watchtower pictures showed jesus clean shaven and with short hair {watch 1954 p.511 "why do watchtower books now show jesus with short hair and no beard?

....because he is shown that way in representations that are older than the traditional effeminate looking pictures..."}.

yearbook 2011 p.57 "a bearded man named eric showed up at a congregation in the united states {oh god a bearded man!!!

anezthy

I believe that The Disney Company also forbids facial hair. The difference is that the Disney Co. is a fantasy, entertainment and happily mystical organization while the Watchtower is..... ..... Scratch that! Both company's are the same.
