Let us consider the same three factors that directed the governing body in the first century.
Governing Body in the 1st century??!!.....WatchTards....
i know that i am not by any means the first person to take note of this article, but today i finally got around to reading it.
i quickly found the now infamous line "the governing body is neither inspired nor infallible.
" in the interest of fairness, however, i decided to finish the paragraph, which led me to finish the lesson.
Let us consider the same three factors that directed the governing body in the first century.
Governing Body in the 1st century??!!.....WatchTards....
i am not talking about the one that the org came out with in 2010. i am talking about a new one that just came out.
it is completely different or is it just the 135 songs from the 2010 songbook plus the 16 that they have rolled out since then?
my head is spinning!.
There's is a NEW Songbook?!
great white sharks are able to subdue and eat almost anything they come across, thanks to their amazing teeth.
consider: the great white shark (carcharodon carcharias) needs to catch and process food in order to survive.
its teeth are remarkable, being arranged in rows and rows that move forward, like a conveyor belt, so that these animals always have a full set of functioning teeth at any one time.. furthermore, the shape of this shark's teeth changes throughout its life.
Sharks were originally land animals that ate hay..
Until Adam and Eve were thrown out of the Garden of Eden,in Jackson County Missouri USA..
What caused the sharks to stop eating hay and go into the sea?..

yesterday i made a visit to the museum in my city.
the top floor is the planetarium, which has a connecting room with a huge dome ceiling where they project lessons and lectures and you have a 360 view of the night sky etc.. this particular lecture explained about our galaxy, and how it's only one of billions in the universe.
and then we learned about each planet, some of their moons and the sun.
Now I'm Convinced There Probably Is No God
Considering all the indoctrination that was pounded into our heads..
It`s a stunning revelation,once you come to that conclusion..
Now I`d be more concerned if there "Was No Beer"..
my husband and i recently moved back to our hometown so we are back on the radar for the elders.
we have been happily inactive the last few years.
the other day a brother, who was once friends with my husband, and a substitute circuit overseer stopped in my husband's work for a shepherding visit if they still call it that.
Is this a new practice?
They`ve been doing that for as long as I can remember..
JW`s have no boundaries..
They feel free to be assholes,almost anywhere they go..
jehovah’s witnesses will seek to overturn the apex court’s order .
The latest move by the Jehovah’s Witnesses will seek to overturn the apex court’s order on November 30, 2016, that all cinema halls in India would play the national anthem before the feature film starts. This order also made it mandatory for all present in the hall “to stand up to show respect to the national anthem” as part of their “sacred obligation”.
How much will Watchtower spend on something that stupid?.....As much as it takes..
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
How about food and shelter for the poor in India?!!..
WatchTards!!..
so i had my first appointment with a counsellor, of course i explained about being a born in jw, mentally leaving, the penalty of doing so and therefore the mental strain of pretending to be someone i'm not.
her response was that she couldn't help me with that because leaving a cult was a "lifestyle choice".
i tried to say to her that its a cult not a religion and how it brain washed me but no.
Leaving the jws is a "lifestyle choice" according to a counsellor
Do you think it's a lifestyle choice?
Uhhhhhhh..No..
She Needs Counselling..
i have had a conversation this evening with a jw friend i have known since childhood.
he is of the opinion that armageddon will have come and gone within the next 5 years.
are the jws now pinpointing 2020 as the supposed year?
Is the year 2020 the new prediction for Armageddon?
It would be 1975 all over again..
New Years Eve 2020..
At the stroke of Midnight bringing in 2021..
7 million JW`s would simultaneously get instant amnesia and forget..
They preached Armageddon by 2020..
to me it seems that there are a growing number of jws who reject a few to most doctrines of jws and yet still believe that they are in "jehovah's organisation.
" i have come across quite a few who for example, reject the 1914 doctrine entirely and yet remain psuedo-jws.. take a look at this page: http://e-jw.org/index.php?threads/the-ultimate-generational-leap-rebuttal.2521/#post-21793.
those are jws who reject 1914 and even the gb.
The JWs who don't believe JW doctrine..
Most don`t care about doctrine,which could change tomorrow and often does..
JW`s parrot what ever the WBT$ wants..
I`ve often heard JW`s say:
"Even if it wasn`t the Truth,I`d still be a JW!"
Nothing but Loyalty to the WBT$,matters in WatchTower World..
It`s simple,no thinking involved..
........................................
That`s why a lot of JW`s are happy..
Right Where They Are..
when i was younger i used to hear about "marking talks" given in the past.
i believe they stopped in the 80's or 90's.
basically, if someone wasn't baptized or doing something unrepentant, they would get a "marking talk" and be treated the same as a df person.
Yep..
Change the WBT$/JW Cult Language up every once in a while..
That way you know who`s really a Loyal WBT$ /JW.....And..
Who may fall under suspicion,for not speaking the WBT$/JW Cult Language correctly..
