  What do you think a witness would say when shown this quote?

  what do you think a witness would say when shown this quote, then the proof of the 1914, 1925 predictions?.

  "true, there have been those in times past who predicted an "end to the world," even announcing a specific date.

  yet nothing happened.

  Syl,

  Making friends on the outside is pivotal to your escape because of possibly loosing "friends" and family who will reject you if you leave the cult. Remember that they strongly believe they're demonstrating love to you, but mostly to God by shunning you. So join a football team or motorcycle club and take part in their charity rides. You will quickly make new friends who will support if or when things get rough.

  Ça marche pour moi...

  " even if they are too young to understand everything that is discussed, children can be trained to remain awake and sit.

  quietly.

  My parents were proud to relate how well behaved we were at the meetings when we were young. It only took a few good spankings when returning home after a meeting where we had acted like any normal kids who are bored to death. I recall a single father making his early teen son stand in the corner at the front of the hall because he wasn't following in his Bible...imagine the humiliation of being called out in front of the whole congregation. It's no surprise the kid rebelled and eventually went to jail for killing a drug dealer...

  Working on a Sunday.

  well i wouldn't really call it hard work, but i have to come into the office and sit and wait for the phone to ring.

  i work every 3rd weekend and it really is unpleasant.

  9 hours each day with nothing to do but wait for the phone to ring.

  I often travel on Sunday to hold business meetings early Monday. Occasionally I come home on Saturday...makes for short weekends. Still, it's much better than 50 years of service on Saturday and meeting on Sunday...and all the guilt when I took a break from these theocratic activities.

  CO talk at SAD appl. of 2 Thess. 1:8 & other mind control tactics

  by Kensho in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  now that i am really "awake" at the assemblies i pay more attention to what the borg's traveling enforcers say and the talk he gave was some "new light" on 2 thess.

  1:8 (probably his opinion).

  paraphrased " there is a thinking that has crept in somehow in the minds of some brothers over the years that because jehovah is a merciful &loving god he will not destroy those who have not been reached with the good news in different parts of the world or my family or bible studies need just a little more time, well they need to read this script.. .
