  my husband and i bought a house recently aand apparently our new house is smack in the middle of a diligent congregations territory.

  they've been in our neigborhood twice a week since we moved in a month ago.

  there are a lot of guard dogs in our neigborhood (yeah, i live in the hawaiian guetto) and they all go nuts when the witnesses are walking by.

  The only organization that God directs.

  by man in black in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  during the decades in which i was a jw, so many times i heard comments about how the wtbts is the only organization that god is directing here on earth today.

  in fac there was a popular story in the late 70's about how the us army once came to a district assembly to observe, and learn how to better organize large groups of people.

  ( i remember the speaker commenting on how many attendee's thought the tribulation was starting because the army was there.

  New Light @ The 2011 District Convention

  by dontplaceliterature in

  " at the bottom of the image on the back of the invitation raises some eyebrows, but last night in the routine district convention article during the service meeting, i caught that one of the paragraphs mentioned that we would be encouraged to keep a copy of the tract in hand for a discussion during sunday's last talk.

  my guess is, there is going to be some new revelation about what the "?

  " represents, or some other fangled idea.

  with the royal wedding in the news,.

  has your perspective of the royal family, her majesty the queen, the national anthem, and maybe politics in general, changed since you left the borg?.

  even if you're not british, would you say you are more patriotic now?.

  so my story, just like everyone elses that has left, is one of confusion , hurt, and lots of mixed emotions, .

  i was raised a witness, and at the age of 20ish bent to pressure from the elders and got baptised, my heart was never in it, not even as a child, it was more jsut the motions of it, because thats what you were taught your whole life to do.

  about a year after being baptised, i met a a young lady that opened my eyes, while she wasnt in my life long, (dont blame her, i had a lot to deal with , family, elders, etc) she was my saving grace, in the "truth" i was depressive, lonely, :( .
