anyone else hear about this.
as all j-dubs know, whenever someone complains about how long the "new system" is taking too arrive, they use the excuse that jehovah works on his own time.
quite a few times during the public talks, i've heard speakers say the phrase "1000 years to us is only one day to jehovah" (my parents never stop talking about this).
I've heard speakers say the phrase "1000 years to us is only one day to Jehovah" 1000 Years is Like 1 Day
Watchtower could say any stupid thing to JW`s...They`d believe it..

A Pickle to us,is a Basket Ball to Jehovah..
for those who were never a jw, here's a fun guide to passing yourself as one:.
privilege [priv-lij] - a duty nobody would volunteer to do which is assigned to you without your say so.
such as cleaning the toilets, picking up other brats candy wrappers in the back row and being stuck on locking up duty for the 7th time in a row.. df'd [dee-eff'd] - disfellowshipped.
FINE..
That was a FINE talk Brother Boring gave!..
Everything is FINE in Watchtower World..
THE FRIENDS..
You can`t have a "real friend" outside the WBT$.....It`s frowned upon..
Your Only Real Friends Are..
"THE FRIENDS" / OTHER JW`s..
just wondering.
for you scotch lovers, i've been partial to singles for a long time, but was recently given a bottle of johnnie walker green.
i think i've fallen in love.
.
i was going to put this in my thread about pyramid schemes, but i thought it's discreet enough to warrant its own.
1) there are many faithful jws.
2) there are many men and women who could take control and fill the void if the watchtower collapses.
Also, this very year, they've made promises that they cannot take back about the great tribulation.
Watchtower has an explanation for everything..
...............................................................
A)..We never said that.
B)..We have New Light..
C)..Your causing division in the congregation..
YOU COULD BE DISFELLOWSHIPPED..
several years ago, i was introduced to a "wonderful" company called fortune hi tech marketing by a brother and his wife.
they had been introduced by a former sheriff who claims he had researched the company and found no leins or judgments, and that former sheriff had been brought in by a pastor.
you can read what happened with fhtm on wikipedia if you so desire.. this whole new idea of multilevel marketing had my brain reeling, though, and soon enough, i actually signed up with none other than prepaid legal.
Pyramid schemes were very common among JW`s when I was growing up..
One would die,another would pop up..
There was always a new way for JW`s..
To Financially Screw their Spiritual Bothers and Sisters..
It was part of JW CULTure..
.........................................................
i remember a roman catholic priest acknowledging on the bbc that the outrageously anti-clerical tv comedy father ted was a humorous mocking of his church but an acceptable thing.. try mocking the jw religion to a believer and the result is so very different.. just why is it that jehovah's witnesses can never take even the faintest hint of criticism of their religion?.
Just why is it that Jehovah's Witnesses can never take even the faintest hint of criticism of their religion?
It would mean WatchTower is Wrong..
If WatchTower is Wrong,JW`s are Wrong..
........................................
all these hypothetical questions about the organization's demise or what if god did this or that don't do anyone any good.
personal experiences.
info and insight about your congregation, circuit, area and the watchtower itself is what we need.
What if..
Bunnys Had Wings,Magic Wands......And......Lived in Taco Tree`s?..

What Comes After the Watchtower Collapse?
You`ll Wake Up..
The WBT$ Will Still Be Here..

A man later identified as Richard White running through a New Orleans Airport Terminal waving the large knife while spraying wasp spray at various people.
Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Lt. Heather Sylve ultimately shot him in the thigh and he died of his injuries after refusing medical treatment, reportedly because it went against his beliefs as a Jehovah’s Witness.
that admission in the feb.17 ,study edition of the watchtower , " who is leading gods people today ?
" "the governing body is neither inspired, nor infallible, therefore it (they/we) can err in doctrinal matters or in organizational direction .".
have the many jehovahs witnesses past and present who have lost their lives by refusing blood transfusions due to the prohibition on blood tranfusions by jehovahs witnesses really got the sense of this statement ?.
"The G.B. is neither inspired nor infallible" ..we can err .in Doctrinal matters.
So why do JW`s die refusing blood tranfusions.? !
