Said from the platform: "You are not surviving Armaggedon if you are spiritually weak"
by Daniel1555 intoday i was at the meeting (i go there about once a month now).
in the service meeting they had a part where they interviewed the secretary of the congregation.. so one question was: "why are the service reports so important?".
our secretary explained that the reports are important, because the elders can see, who is spiritually weak.

I heard that speech over 10 yrs ago, from the COBE. That COBE was deleted by the new CO who felt that he wasn't active enough.
The WT has written that you will be judged from your heart condition, not your works. That is why people get discouraged. They are getting mixed messages

PEER PRESSURE!!! I gave in to Pioneering during August...I feel dirty...
by stuckinarut2 inok, i'll admit it...i am weak.... as everyone knows, the pressure to "pioneer" during "the most momentous, awesome, amazing, centenary anniversay of jesus invisble kigdom rule, & distribute tracts about a dodgy website" campaign is very strong at the moment.... also, many will have read my threads about the extreme views and expectations in our cong for "all appointed men to pioneer" etc..... every elder and ms and their families have been announced as pioneering....i mean everyone's name was read out except mine..... i was not going to do it, as i do not believe anyone should be forced...(and of course its the last thing on earth i would rather do anyway since learning ttatt).
but i am not quite ready to make the break yet, so i realised that i would stand out more if i didnt put in a form to pioneer.
yes it would make me more conspicious, and make fading harder to do...it would bring more heat on me if i didnt pioneer.. so i gave in and submitted a form.... now, of course, i'm only going to make sure i'm seen at the key field service groups etc...but then go and do something more interesting...like count blades of grass..... ahh....i feel hypocritical to myself now......

GB member Anthony Morris mentions concerned JW letter at RC
by Acluetofindtheuser ingb member anthony morris mentioned a letter that was sent to bethel by a concerned jw fearing the gt.

I can imagine this happening on CNN when Wolf reads someone's blog. Does he start it by saying, "Now here is a blog from someone who is not that bright".
Doesn't Anthony know that he embarassed all those who could of, written that letter?

by WatchTower87 into all bodies of elders.
the jw.org roles (s-135) form is also available at the forms link.
the congregation secretary should arrange for this letter to be retained in the congregation permanent file of policy letters.

Yes, it's true. I wrote that letter. But, I'm shocked he would mention it in a talk. That was a confidential letter.

A thought about the convention: Anticipate Future Blessings...
by wisdomfrombelow inone of the parts had a skit with 3 or 4 young brothers playing a game of "what i will look forward to in the new system".
one wanted a house by the beach.
one wanted a house in the forest.

I have had many conversations with guys, about what life would be like in the New System, and it didn't go exactly the way it was displayed at the RC. For one thing, Back packing is more desirious before the end of this system because of the interesting things that exists. The Great Wall of China, the Leaning Twr of Pisa. Europe, Prague, etc. You can live now on the lake, or in the forest, even if you are pioneering. In the New System, what will happen when everyone wants to live there? One important thing that was left out of the conversation was, guys do like to talk about chicks, and I'm not talking poultry
