  U.S. political turmoil ...

  by mikeflood in

  1. social

  that russian thing, all those suits, the bitter political divide... it's getting out of control.

  i think trump could resign and pardon all, he even could get ill because to much pressure (even for his lawyer), or he's gonna get so cornered that he could take very drastic decisions.

  they should concentrate in govern the country instead, it's getting tiresome.

  What are the "inner rooms" of Isaiah 26:20? The answer may surprise you !!!

  by jwdoctrine in

  "go, my people, enter your inner rooms, and shut your doors behind you.hide yourself for a brief moment until the wrath has passed by.

  "(isaiah 26:20).

  one of the questions that seem to trouble the governing body of the jehovah's witnesses in recent year is this: what will jehovah's witnesses be doing during the destruction of babylon the great?

  Please supply the reference in 2014 where it is claimed that the kingdom hall is the inner room? I differ on that but maybe I missed something. They were discouraging that sort of thinking in the 1990's. A Hall in south America was devastated by a mudslide and they clarified that the inner room was the safety of the actively associating with the congregation and the elder arrangement, not the building. Anyone could just walk inside if that were the case. Help me out, quote it, I don't have the library any longer.

  Just went back and read your link. It fooled me, I thought it was Watchtower but its not. The quote does not say its the KH. It says its the local congregation. That does not mean KH building.

  The older I get the more angry I become!

  i did some self-reflection today trying to determine why, with every passing day, i become angrier against the watchtower company.

  i am in my 70's and my health is failing.

  at first, i thought it was because "worldly" people couldn't care less about jdubs and the little world they live in even though the witlesses think that the earth revolves around them and their desert god who was originally worshipped by the cainites.

  For the longest time when I put my head on the pillow at night I didn't realize that I wasn't actually resting my head against it. I was so wound up that I was hovering just above it thinking I was relaxing. Now I slow down, put the thoughts of the past out of my head and rejoice in the day I just lived, the people I interacted with and laughed with. I love my days. I don't let the past keep my head hovering above the pillow any more. I breathe deep and exhale a few times as I let the pillow caress the side of my head. I love to be breathing. Just let it go and enjoy your days SG.

  An honest look at the situation

  by Formerbrother in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i was brought up in the truth.

  i saw a lot unchristian things going on in my local body of elders, my dad was an elder and waiting outside elders meetings to go home with my mum and other wives, we sometimes heard raised voices in the 2nd school.

  the other mums would raise their voices as well thinking of something to say to hide the elders 'private' arguments.. my dad hated it all, i think he hated having to keep things secret from my mum and me.. anyway, i got baptised, and as we did back then didnt think about further education but instead pioneered.

  It is amazing how much healing from the cult mindset can take place in such a short time if you are open to it. Look forward and make honest choices that validate who you really are. Set and example and be loving in a way your children would never know in the organization, unselfish and without a conditional agenda. You can do this. Get going! All the best.

  so almost two weeks ago, my boyfriend(who was disfellowshiped) went to the memorial.

  he hasn’t spoken to his parents, friends, or siblings for over a year because of it.

  the only person he keeps in contact with is his grandma, which is who he went along with.

  Armageddon started...

  just joking i really don't think so...but the situation in syria is pretty worrisome...just hearing the news that france and great britain are attacking with cruise missiles in 72 hours.

  i mean assad is not gonna gasify his adversaries when he almost won the civil war.

  trump too suspended a very important trip to the latinoamerican presidents summit in peru, just to 'oversee the american response to syria.

  Even if war starts there, would this be something new? Not really. Its been one after another since man could throw a rock. Bigger Rocks I know, but rocks all the same.

  What is CT Russell's motive?

  by sinboi in

  what is russell's motive when he started examining the bible with a group of bible students?

  did he intend to form a cult and to mislead others?

  Russell was approx 9 years old when the civil war began. His mother would have died four months before. Over 300,000 Pennsylvanian men died in the Civil War, Gettysburg being only 195 miles from his home. What are the odds that he knew many men/neighbors who died in that war. If he had such an inquiring mind I'm sure he wondered where they had all gone when they died. Then at the end, Lincoln gets gunned down. Would he have wondered why such a "good" man who saved the union went? He would have been 13 or so by then. Could he have been one of those who rode out to watch battles as a boy?

  His bio says he was disillusioned by the creeds of Christendom. I can imagine why. What kind of answers did the Presbyterian and Congregational ministers give him when he asked why and where had all these dead men laying in the fields go? Sincere then a victim of his own success.
