  11. How can we show our support for the Messianic King? (From book study last night)

  by NikL in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the study was on how wt has refined itself over the years by ceasing celebrations of christmas etc.. paragraph 11.

  11 what a fine example those faithful bible students set for us!

  reflecting on their example, we do well to ask ourselves: ‘how do i view the direction we receive from headquarters?

  Re "Headquarters"

  Just testing my memory here,

  John 4:21-24 says?

  And who is the head of the congregation presumably?

  And Christ is where?

  So where is headquarters?

  Well, in New York State of course!

  Look for a mountain (John 4)

  Lol

  What the "Worldly" media has to say about the proposed Russian ban of JWs

  by NikL in

  interesting to read the reports from around the world.

  i doubt many jws have read any of them.. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/russian-government-jehovahs-witnesses-extremist-group-lawsuit-supreme-court-a7634671.html.

  russian authorities threatened to close jehovah’s witnesses administrative centre last march, when they issued a formal warning to the congregation that the “religious association will be subject to liquidation” if it failed to eliminate within two months the violations identified by the government as “extremist”.

  Does anyone at headquarters think that millions of letters are going to

  move the Russian political/judicial machine in their favour? I think not,

  I see this campaign as a way to solidify themselves in an immediate

  "urgent" cause and remind everyone that they are fufilling prophesy by

  being persecuted,

  The question as I see it is: Are they really being persecuted "for

  righteousness sake" or ironically, for being the persecuters of others,

  This teaches critical judgement not only on congregation members

  but on "the world" outside as well,

  After the 'Miracle' Chairs Video, What Pointless Tasks have you seen Assigned?

  2. experiences

  sheffield 1980s i think.

  there was a grassy area that needed mowing to put a collapsible baptismal pool on i think.

  there was no mower so they gave a bunch of sisters a pair of scissors each and they went on their knees and snipped away.. only in jehovah's organisation!.

  I was a teenager back in the seventies and an attendant at the convention

  During the sessions all attendants were told to spread out and face the

  audience during Glen Howe(famed JW lawyer)'s talk

  This was to intimidate the man who had called in a threat on Howe's life,

  Now my (silent) question as a teenager was: How were a bunch of

  unarmed men (and boys) supposed to intimidate a man with a high

  powered weapon?

  Well, I suppose we were armed with the resurrection hope lol
