  WT Article - David Versus Goliath—Did It Really Happen?

  by ttdtt in

  https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/watchtower-no5-2016-september/david-versus-goliath-real/.

  the article ends with this:.

  there is no real basis for doubting the truthfulness of this historical account.

  What to say? I Don't want to go to meetings anymore?

  by Drifting Away in

  so it has been a couple of months since me and my family have attended a meeting.

  we have received a few calls and visits.

  but what do you say when people ask "where have you been"?

  I used to keep it short and blunt (in my usual style i guess) and then change the subject.

  In the early days when fading it was "taking a break"

  Later when I'd quit it was "I've quit"

  A life skill worth learning though is that you are under no obligation to answer other peoples questions. As dubs we were programmed to be honest to the point of incriminating ourselves when asked questions by fellow believers especially those with perceived "authority" over us.

  "not your business" throws them off guard.

  or another way is to answer with a question of your own.

  people often feel at pains to be able to give excuses for not doing something they dont want to do, there really is no need at all.

  Introduction - Any Believers?

  by Believer in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i’ve been reading it for a few of years off and on, but have been a little too ... maybe ... timid to join.

  i left the watchtower organization almost 20 years ago but never abandoned my faith and belief in god.

  i knew the gb/organization didn’t represent god, so when i lost my faith in them, i managed to keep my faith in an all wise benevolent creator.

  That is such a weak argument to use it smacks of desperation.

  bye... bye.... no more new printing presses for jw.org... the growth is so tremendous (irony...).. all printing work in europe will be arrange in the next month only in selters (germany), but no renovation or upgrading in printing presses is expected... it will be a full outsourcing :).

  a worldly company axel s******* will be used.

  this company is known to be printing bild newspaper... the interesting part of it is the logistics will be as well outsourced.

  Looks like the Buddhists are the brightest of the bunch, JW's like wilful ignorance rather a lot.

  I know the chart says nothing of the sort but you get my drift...

  Born Twice - Die Once .... Born Once - Die Twice

  by Perry in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  jesus taught that we must die unto ourselves, and allow the holy spirit to take up residence within us.

  some people get saved by simply inviting jesus into their hearts, to be the lord of their life.

  this serves as a countering force within the born-again christian to counterbalance the will of the flesh, which is still unsaved in this life and destined for destruction in imitation of our lord himself.. attempting to live the christian life without having this spirit within you is a waste of time at the minimum, and dangerous on the downside.

  I'm pretty sure you are mixing up several Bond film titles there, so all bets are off as to what the hell you are talking about especially when you quote bible verses in support of your plot twists.
