Do you believe you have a particular purpose in life?
by journey-on ini ask this because as a jw, you are programmed to think your only purpose is to preach the good news of the kingdom....period.
but more and more, i've noticed in my own life a strong pull toward something i won't elaborate on, but it has me thinking that maybe we really do each have a particular purpose and it's up to us to discover what it is.
i know i'm kind of new to the forum, but please let me know if any of you have experienced this same kind of unusually strong pull toward something you can't fully explain.

Did Anything In Field Service Make You Question The Society?

an ex-jehovahs witnesses planted a seed of doubt by stating that she felt to be a good .
witness an individual had to be a conformist.

Does anyone remember the Awake or Watchtower that came out after Sep 11?
by themonster123 ini am now vaguely recalling either an awake or watchtower that came out right after the september 11th terrorist attacks on the world trade center....and anyone can hear me out on this...i remember they had a bunch of little stories of people that were actually there and like every single person they wrote about apparantly ran to bethel away from the chaos and all of what was going on by the world trade centers...i'm not doubting these people in the article did run there, but seriously, the whole point of the article was to just be like, "ah, yes, all of them ran to the safe mother," it was really weird.
i mean, it was all like a commercial that apparantly bethel is the place to be when disaster strikes or other bologna like that.

What happens AFTER baptism?
by onlycurious inmy friend is getting baptised sometime in april.
i have lots of questions.. first of all, she willing inquired about some christian books i have and is currently reading them.

Cults
by darth frosty ini was just watching the repeat of the history channel cults program.
needless to say a lot of the cults they talked about and their beliefs reminded me of the dubs to an extent.
but, it got me to thinking...has the wt$ ever featured an article on cults and recognizing them?

Photographs and Illustrations in WT Publications
by RubyStevens inthis is i guess geared more toward bethelites or those in the know.
in the endless sunday meetings i was always facinated by the photographs and pictures in the books and magazines.
is there a large photo studio at bethel were the pictures are taken?
