  What's Expected in Field Service?

  by Cold Steel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  do all potential converts have to take part in field service before baptism?

  and do new members generally try to bring in their friends and family or do they generally keep their religion to themselves?

  what do pioneers do if they're going door to door and chance on someone they know or work with in their personal lives?

  I'd also like to hear where every baptized member is an ordained minister of the gospel.

  If that's true, then any of you active members could baptize anyone you wished without permission. You could baptize your wife, kids, anyone.

  So my brother called me last night...

  2. experiences

  my older brother is studying with the witnesses.

  he was raised in a jw household like we all were but he never committed to it.

  he stopped attending meetings at 18yo, made a lot of bad decisions in his life and now, at 35yo is having a bible study.

  WTF?!.

  3)..Go for a really long coffee break..
  

  4)..Leave WBT$ Literature as a tip for the waitress,so you can count the time..

  "Just have faith in Jehovah..."

  by evilApostate in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i recently spoke to an old friend of mine who is still under the clutches of the watchtower.

  a while back, i had told him about all the child sex abuse coverups, false prophecies, false doctrines etc.

  he was really shocked and surprised.

  How the Watchtower Could Grow In Numbers

  by Sour Grapes in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if i were running the watchtower there are things that i would do to increase the numbers and increase donations.

  since so many older witnesses are realizing that the false hope they had of not growing old and not having to die is fading away like a frost on a sunny autumn morning, the watchtower needs to shift gears.. as it has been stated on this forum, the emphasis needs to shift from not dying to the glorious hope of the resurrection, the gateway to paradise.

  they need to deemphasize armageddon and emphasize "the way of life" that witnesses have.

  Questions for the Biblical God

  by Saethydd in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i consider myself an agnostic, i feel no sense of certainty that there is a single all-powerful creator who made the entire universe, and yet i must acknowledge that the universe is a large place that is filled with much beauty so the possibility of an intelligent mind being behind it is certainly there.

  lately, however, i do have more and more doubts about the god of the bible being a candidate for that all-powerful creator should such a being even exist at all.. these doubts are founded upon a number of questions for which i have never found any satisfying biblical or logical answer.

  instead, i was simply chided with the remark that "god's actions aren't always meant to be understood by humans," which i found to be a very unsatisfying answer.

  Are witnesses even trying anymore?

  by megaboy in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  havent had an encounter with a witness in a while, almost 10 years, though at this point i could run circles around them in the scriptures, this encounter was very strange.

  was eating with my son at a coffee shop, guy comes up using it as an opening.

  i'm use to this because people find my son beautiful so i was open to him.

  If you give a present, Jehovah will kill you.

  by schnell in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if you tell someone "merry christmas" or simply respond with "you too", then god is angry with you and you will answer for every such violation at your day of judgment.. if you eat some leftover birthday cake and a thin-skinned witness sees you and gets offended even though there's nothing wrong with the cake itself, you have become a stumbling block and god wants you to fix it before judgment day or else.. if you watch a cartoon featuring characters that may or may not be hilariously gay, it turns out that it does matter because this is an affront to god and he will judge all those who entertain such cartoons.. there are a lot of implications about god that jehovah's witnesses seem to make but never consider.

  the problem is that they don't follow it all the way through.

  in keeping themselves in god's love, and considering how they think he feels about matters in their daily lives, they submit to what is basically an ecclesiastical opinion that has terrible implications about god's character.
