jehovah’s witnesses are assisting victims of a catastrophic fire that engulfed the grenfell tower, a 24-story apartment building in the north kensington area of london, in the early morning hours of june 14, 2017. authorities are reporting that at least 79 people were killed.. four witnesses were evacuated from the apartment building, two of whom were residents of grenfell tower.

fortunately, none of them were injured, although the witnesses’ apartments were among those completely destroyed in the blaze.

witnesses that live near the now fire-gutted apartment building provided food, clothing, and monetary aid to their fellow members and their families that were affected.

Lets say that there were no jws in that building, would jws be providing any support and relief (rhetorical)? Do jws EVER provide help to anyone not a jw? Good Samaritan provided PHYSICAL help not spiritual to someone of different religion, Galations says to work good toward ALL, jw.org is just serving the same old self serving propaganda, Jesus said to not let your left hand know what your right is doing when doing good but let such giving be in secret (paraphrasing),

A rhetorical question: How much real estate did the first century congregation own? One more: Do Jehovah's Witnesses pattern themselves after first century Christians because I'm sensing a conflict,

I've Just Noticed Something About The "Remember The Wife Of Lot" Video

by pale.emperor in

maybe you guys got on to this right away, but i've just noticed something about the remember the wife of lot video.. we all know the scene where the judgmental jw dad gives that disapproving look to the girl who has lesbian parents:.

this look actually appears again throughout the video - but on other jws.

in the scene where the new brother is out in service with the former co. look at the new brothers reaction to when a "worldly" person knows the former co from work:.

I just saw highlights (thank-you) but did anyone notice that (as I saw it) Dad is only smiling when he is at the Kingdom Hall (where he appears REALLY happy)? Seems to me like a message that a CULT would want to deliver :0)
