for the next two weeks, wt will attempt to lay the basis for their imitation "faith" by discussing the "imitate their faith" book, chapter on the flood.
a golden opportunity to share faith strengthening details with your believing friends.
do not miss it!.
My waking up started with looking at JWN for KM's (Atlantis, I am forever in your debt) AND
Visiting the Flood section of Watchtower Letters. That site confirmed my doubts, forced me to look at the facts and eventually helped me wake up.
It is my first stop when someone brings up the topic of Noah or the Flood.
my nephew is a sweet, smart, thoughtful person.
he wants to go to college.. normally, a mom would be proud to have a son like this.. nope, not a friggin jw mom.
apparently, he's being selfish to both her and jehovah.
I wonder if he hangs out over at the exjw sub-reddit? There are lots of people who are in a similar situation. He is lucky to have you in his life.
Cognac, can you help by showing your nephew how to look for scholarships online? Also, his high school probably has lots of scholarship information and most high schools use a website that keeps track of their SAT scores and lets them search for potential schools. Maybe you can convince his mother to fill out the free FAFSA form which would help him quality, maybe, for financial aid.
YES! He will understand that this is his ticket to freedom.
has anyone else's family finances been victim to the 'seek the kingdom first' economic policy?.
for years, my husband and i have had our own business, my husband is not the most proactive guy, prefers to go in field service than to work, but he has always encouraged me to 'rely on jehovah and all these other things will be added to you', 'seek the kingdom first' etc etc.
there have been times, such as when i was heavily pregnant and we lost a big deal, that i have been begging jehovah on hands and knees to honour that promise, wondering why he wasn't helping us.
Last night I heard the CO outline for 2015 about "Inspired truth" & "Inspired falsehoods" (in Spanish) and he listed Saving For The Future as a teaching of the demons!
He also listed higher education.
a friend of mine has a one year old he wants to get joint custody of with his jw ex wife.
he is dfd.
he told me the elders already testified for his ex and lied in court.

the 2015 annual meeting, specifically, part 1, right about minute 27, has anthony morris emphasizing that "you're better off reading one chapter (of the bible) and really absorbing it" than just reading the whole thing "as a challenge".
while i agree with the the whole idea of meditating on anything you read, it was doing this very thing that brought up so many unanswered questions.
i also came to the constant realization that the jws did not have a clue about what the bible really said.
there has been many threads from various posters around the world about recent bethel layoffs.. so far i remember threads about:.
south africa.
united states.
