i always read the reviews.
i've never seen so many exclamation marks!!!.
any chance of downloading spyware into my computer?.
All things considered, it is a pretty good app. With the comparison of other translations side by side with the NWT, it could backfire on the WTS. It might just make some JW's think about the differences. It certainly is a step up to the modern era for the WTS...
I doubt that they could do tracking with an iPhone app, since Apple has to approve the app before it can be downloaded. If they want to find me, I am not making any secret of where I go or what I do!
back in the glorious mtv 80's decade, i was just hitting my twenties.
a district overseer gave a talk at a circuit assembly about, of course, "music that debases.
" he specifically zeroed in on this particular video:.
I love this video...I always thought of it as satire. Mark Metcalf is phenomenol!! I remember the huge brouhaha over the Thriller video...it was at the peak of Michael Jackson's JW era, and people were going crazy over the demonistic images in the video...sheesh!
first welcome to the board for whatever reason you are here.
if you are here to criticize us, so be it, if you have doubts then look around.
i just want you to do some research on a member who used to be here named "you know".
As I said before...SFPW is either a master satirist or an insanely rabid JW apologist. I am starting to think the latter as the satirical trolling is getting old.
Maybe the scenario would go like it is done in this church...another version of "marking"!
i wanted to know if anyone on here was df'd or know of any who were...why i ask is because many of the friends i have spoken to, say it's not done, just like that.
it's a process.
i have spoken to a re-instated sister and she said by the time they see you, you are pretty much out.
I was DF'ed 20 years ago...one JC meeting and I was gone, but then that was my choice.
that text reminds me of one of a handful of problems peculiar to the ex-jw community.
second only to the wild beast's internal divisions, is the divided makeup of the ex-jw populace.
you know the one thing that indicates jehovah's blessing upon the worldwide association of kingdom proclaimers, is not only the continued success of the preaching work, but along with it the unity and love amongst the brothers and sisters.
Here we go again....
my jw daughter called me this afternoon!!!!!
!i am just over the moon.
her hubby not a jw has cancer & was operated on today!!!!.
most of us here on jwn, while we can get a bit narky at times, can put forth intelligent arguments and sound observations.
sure we can get bogged down with our opinions, but generally we back up our opinions with examples and evidence, and if someone has a different opinion with examples and evidence, we accept that without recriminations.
that's what adults do.. so my question is, why in the last week or so, have a couple of posters claiming to be jws come onto this forum and berated, spewed hate and judgement, and in some cases verbally attacked members personally?
That does it...SFPW is "punking" us. This person is either a fantastic practical joker or utterly crazy...'nuff said.
up until now, everlasting life was dependent on "taking in knowledge".
it was a perfect fit for a publishing house to interpret that scripture that way.
if we didn't keep up with the endless stream of publications from the watchtower our salvation would be in jeopardy.
John 1:1 still says "a god", but is footnoted with "was divine".
as some of you may know i am in the midst of a fade, working on the family coming along (new thread to update there).
most mf my close friends are still jw's to varying degrees.
i would say most are couples that are around our age (25-35), and they attend maybe 90% of the meetings, go in service on sat, pioneer in april, and have a couple bible studies etc... in general the good kind.
My mother wasn't crying, but she had to tell me the "exciting" news...the WTS has published a brand new Bible that is the most accurate ever produced!! She also can't wait to get me my own copy. I didn't have the heart to tell my 83 year old mom anything that would burst her bubble. It is just such a shame for this type of adulation from a woman that has given 60 years of servitude to an organization that could care less about her.
