  ok, i know this has been talked about before, but now's a good time to bring this up again.

  my wife (active witness) and i (inactive, haven't attended in over a year) just got memberships to the ymca today.

  it's the only fitness place in town with a swimming pool.

  My wife's take on the Sept OKM Question Box part

  by erandir in

  well, i asked my wife about the meeting she went to on thursday and how the question box part went.

  the good news, for me, is that she agrees with me that the fds is obviously trying to clamp down on independent thinking and is being very contradictory.

  she said she had in mind during the meeting the scripture about "where 2 or more are gathered in my name, there i am also" and also the scripture about the boreans.

  please open your bibles to revelation.... that's revelation chapter 8 and verse 1 (sounds just like you're at the hall, doesn't it?).

  .

  revelation 8:1 (nwt) "and when he opened the seventh seal, a silence occurred in heaven for about a half hour.".

  comparing WTS with Pharisees

  by erandir in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i had a good discussion saturday night with my witness wife about how the society is basically a modern-day version of the pharisees and how jesus condemned them in his day and how he would condemn the society today.

  does anyone have any good points or any insight into comparing the society with pharisees?

  anything you have would be helpful so i could get my thoughts together and figure out a way to approach this subject with her in the future whenever it comes up..

  How does your congregation compare with neighboring congregations?

  by erandir in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  our congregation is one of those diminishing ones where a lot of people move away or fade.

  when i came into it, the congregation was at zero growth.

  now it is negative.
