If Lot can ask for the city of Zoar to be spared, why can't we ask for the DF'd to be spared?

by Quarterback in

todaay's wt study mentioned jah's reasonableness when lot requested to go flee to zoar, instead of flight to the mountains.. jah had accomodated lot's request, and the city that was doomed to be destroyed got spared.

why can't we expect god to change his mind for the end of this system of things?

why can't we request the salvation for those that are df'd or da'd?

PYRAMIDSCHEME

The city of Zoar didnt offend the Watchtower Society...and in the end we all know thats what counts.

NEW BIBLE

by The Searcher in

the following is part of an email from a retired district overseer in the states.

(source private).

"the new bible will be released at the agm and i understand only two versions will be printed from now on.

PYRAMIDSCHEME

Nothing but a money grab. You will sound like an idiot (besides for the usual reasons) if your the only one reading verses out of the "old" bible. Everyone will need the new one. There will be talks about how expensive these are and how the flock of ducks need to donate or else they will displease Jehovah. They need to make up for the dough thats being baked for Candice Conti and others.

How many legs left on the Watchtower Stool?

by besty in

jw

i would suggest they are built on 3 legs:.

1- print publications.

2 - real estate.

PYRAMIDSCHEME

You knock one leg out and all that free labor converges (motivated by guilt and their loyalty to the Watchto....er, I mean Jehovah) makes and installs another leg and the band marches on.

Are you a dabbler in Witchcraft?

by StopTheTears in

jw
friends

after leaving christianity it's common especially among the young to experiment with witchcraft.

some get drawn into it by getting involved with earth movements and back to nature groups.. .

witchcraft is an evil thing.

I understand the point of your thought but to "quit passing judgement all together" would make you, literally, an idiot.

I think you took my point way to literally. I was speaking more along the lines of passing life and death judgments on people based on thier beliefs. That is why I linked it with the "JW mindset."

Would you pay $600 for a demonic experience

by NewYork44M in

at the very moment i signed oni saw the quote related to demonic experiences next to the $600 question about the stones.. given my desire to increase efficiency i thought it might be good to combine the topics.. i am very dissapointed that i have never had a demonic experience.

the fact that i don't believe in demons may have impacted my lack of experience.

however, i would never spend $600 to seen any group or person - even if they were naked.. so, how about you?.

All you need is some spare change and a yard sale.

Has the feared and much anticipated,'Jehovah Witness Great Tribulation', now started in earnest during this year of 2013?

by Sol Reform in

the watchtower states that the great tribulation.... will start when the united nations attacks babylon the great.

it appears individual states of the usa are starting to get that ball rolling right now.. .

with the world wide child sexual abuse cover-ups across the globe getting special attention from the media.. legislators across the usa seem to have lost the fear of getting the nod of disapproval of 'clergy', especially from the younger members.. law professor marci a. hamilton writes, "across the country, the movement for justice for child-sex-abuse victims is finding that conversations that used to begin with a discussion of the catholic bishops' opposition (and then often ended abruptly) are now started by a member's saying, "they don't deserve deference on this issue.

PYRAMIDSCHEME

So, let me see if I have this straight: God will be upset with governments if they turn on religion for abusing kids and that will bring on the great tribulation? Wow, another good reason you can keep your God, and your religion.
