a recent watchtower study article shows how bad it is to be rejected over religious beliefs when olga revealed that her husband was not speaking to her because she is a jehovah's witness.. 9 in south america, olga proved loyal to god by showing respect for her husband even under trying circumstances.
for years, he expressed annoyance at her for being one of jehovah’s witnesses.
he abused her emotionally, insulted her, refused to speak to her, and threatened to take the children and leave her.
I thought witnesses believe that a building is just four walls and a roof ( hence the term kingdom " Hall") ....emphasis placed on what is in a worshipers HEART not the building they pray in....hence touring a Cathedral or going into a church to support a spouce should be no problem as you don't veiw the building as sacred at all.
God wouldn't give a monkeys if he had any sense.
i have a question with regard to fading.
the wife and i have plans to move to another hall and continue our fade from the organization.
we are already missing quite a few meetings and we are not reporting time.

. I'd rather have a buffalo take a dump in my ear
LOL! I have to remember that one!
The only reason I would move now is if you have elders you really like or have known you many years- since childhood for instance, who may feel more responsible for you...
Moving to a foreign language Cong may help...language confusion may help and you are less likely to form relationships if you can't speak the language...
when under temptation, one can easily deflate it by simply changing his thoughts and choosing his associations wisely.
(philippians 4:8, 9; 1 corinthians 15:33) then why did jesus teach us to pray to god: “lead us not into temptation”?
(mathew 6:13) .
so over the course of three days he had a trial which doesn't seem to have bothered him much.
he got whipped ok that would have been agony and then put on a torture stake/ cross/ whatever yes that would have been hell.
but he was on it for a day and the whole thing lasted for three days.

IF there was a historical Jesus he was probably a deluded psychotic who suffered horribly and died young for no reason. Very sad.
IF IT WAS ALL JUST AS THE WITNESSES SAY THE ONLY REAL SACRIFICE ( PATSY) WAS POOR OLD JUDAS. As you say Jesus had a rotton death ( there are worse ) but after a day of suffering is living it large with his dad up in heaven...and as peteZahut correctly pointed out if we were all good and listened to Jesus where does they leave Jehovah's BIG PLAN? Someone HAD to do the betraying and as jah KNEW the result beforehand ( wheres the free will?)that someone is now condemned forever .... Now THATS what I call a sacrifice!
so today was the one day assembly or whatever it's called now.
fun times.😳.
use resources wisely:.
on their social media site:why do we attend large assemblies?
god's sevants in the past,who were instructed to assemble three times a year, we.
look forward to meeting together in large groups.soon they will be out in full force.
No. Menstruating women are unclean for 7 days? No.
Wouldnt be too sure about THAT! Women are just unclean 365 days a year.....of course, the one thing an unclean women could do is the one thing JW women are allowed to do....,clean the shi**ers at the Kingdom Hall!
2 questions remain in the passing of brother prince:.
will an autopsy, that won't be made available for several weeks, reveal that he died of a drug overdose?.
did prince bequeath a large sum of money to watchtower corporation upon his passing?.
Do you know how many conservative, blue rinsed, church going, on golden pond hat wearing *, old lady and gent " practicing druggie"s I have nursed in liver ITU having overdosed on pain medications/downers?????I cannot even begin to count. Whatever is in that guys system I can guarantee it was on prescription.
Practising druggies ??Look in your medicine cabinet people.
