FHN and Juni, I understand what you're saying. Ignorant parrotting.

"The Truth".

For two reasons:

They've barely got any;
They've commandeered one of Christ's titles (John 14:6).

I was trapped in a road trip to a DC with an new elder who wanted to help me if I had a problem w/ 'self-abuse' after my separation from my wife

WTF!!! How did he intend doing that? ROFL

Gozz

Not to forget:

"timely".

Like: the talk was timely; annoying nonsense. Very annoying.

Fine (as in 'fine association' or 'fine spiritual food')

Surely Not! (as in 'Would we want to stumble our brothers? Surely Not!)

Upbuilding (As in 'How upbuilding it is to recieve our marital due from a fine marriage partner!)

"go to all the meetings" (I hear at every meeting, never read any time I pick up a Bible. God's word or man's?)

"spiritual things" (Only valid activity. Meetings, study, prayer, field service)

"encourages" (intimidate or guilt trip)

"it's just what the Bible says" (a lame attempt at a broad generalization that will hopefully cover up the reality that other people tell me what to think about the Bible)

"spirit directed organization" (lame appeal to authority)

GermanXJW

appreciate obedience "are we not thankful..."

I always hated, "upbuilding activity.." You can't have a party you have a "get together." Ad it has to be "upbuilding."

Anyone notice in this weeks watchtower the use of the word "steward" instead of slave. Maybe they are tired of being slaves.
