1) What was sunday's watchtower about? or tommorows works lol... -or- 2) What is the year's text and from what scripture is it taken out of?
Thanx guys...
I got this off the board

Todays study article was called "Parents, provide for the needs of your family" and had several points I thought that everyone here who hasn't seen it would find of interest (my comments on the statements pulled are highlighted: First thought is in paragraph six in reference to providing for the family "Indeed, countless fathers shirk thier responsibility, leaving their family in the lurch. Christain husbands do not share that hard-hearted, casual view of providing for thier own. Unlike many of thier coworkers, Christain providers see even the most menial of jobs as being dignified and important, a means of pleasing Jehovah God, since it enables them to provide for their loved ones." Ok that just made me fume I know many "christain" providers that have no pride in thier jobs and do leave thier families in a lurch. But I like the assumption with "unlike may of thier coworkers", the assumption that no one has pride in a job well done except the witnesses. Grrrr. Second thought is in paragraph twelve stating: "To "inculcate" means to teach and impress by means of repetition. Jehovah well knows that of all of us-children in particular need repetition in order to learn.....parents need to find ways to teach basic truths to thier children, patiently repeating Jehovah's principles until the children absorb and apply them" Hmmm for some reason that seems like brain washing and removing freedom of choice by programming the "children" a certain way. Repeat, repeat, repeat wow they use that on the adults too through all the programs. Third is in paragraphy 15, "Christain children need to learn to share their faith effectively with others." So it's not good enough to have it engrained on brain but they must go and talk about it, whether they want to or not. Fourth found in paragraph 18 "Few things are more exasperating for children than the impression that a parent does not love or value them." Right from the WTS own magazine, so then I ask why do they shun especially since it can exasperate thier children. And finally in the last paragraph: "You thereby give your children the best possible opportunity to "choose life" and therafter to "keep alive."" Doesn't really seem like the choice is really there, and why do they put it in quotes, is it to be sarcastic because they know there really isn't a choice, and that if you go against the witness choice you lose your family and friends who are witnesses. I'd love to see what everyone else thinks of this info. Thank You -Riot | |
R U posing as a witness? Sounds like they are 'sizing you up' to make sure you are not an apostate.

Title of the WT study is: Parents, Provide for the needs of you family.

I'll try to find the year's text for you.
That was easy ... I googled Jehovah's Witness 2005 year's text and it came up with:
"My help is from Jehovah." Psalm 121:2

What was sunday's watchtower about? or tommorows works lol... -or-
It was about power and how to secure it over the needy, gullible & weak (a subtle blend of paradisaic bliss and divine retribution)
2) What is the year's text and from what scripture is it taken out of?
The text is designed to keep the needy, gullible & weak "loyal" to Jehovah God (aka: the boys in Brooklyn)
Thanx guys...'s ok .. test posting unc
THanx guys! you lot are the best.
Yes Jeff I am posing as a witness. I am developing communication with them and intend to pose questions to really make them think. I have had opportunties too so far and just waiting on answers.
I answered this girls questions with the info you all supplied and she accepted it without question. She runs an 'exclusive' JW group. 'No Apostates Please!'
Ahhhh I love the sneaky sneaky!!!
Watchit - posers have been "outed" by reporting their experiences here. Also, don't post directly from this site to theirs. They can tell what site you were at last.
Thanx for the advice jgnat...
I use seperate browser windows to try not let them see I've been here. Also I have them both bookmarked so I can just jump straight to the page.
I've created a new identity for this project so hopefully I won't have a problem! Its good to be careful though...
If you took this long to answer, they got your number. I was asked and also had jwd up and saw blondie's weekly wt. Hahahaha it worked. I just hope I mentioned the proper commentary.
