"No more money, not one red cent!"
by Separation of Powers inonce you recognize that the contributions you gave for the upkeep of your place of worship have been given to the corporation and will only be used to upkeep your place of worship at their discretion...the caption will become your mantra!.

GB said,"Feed ME! instead of the local retired overseer or elders."
Once you realize that some of your unemployed local elders were driving newer cars, you should figure out who paid the bills monthly. It is part of the hidden retirement fund! Shhh,but do not tell the JWs. Let us all just turn our heads!

And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
The world has heard about Jesus Christ, the end came for Jerusalem temple and the people living sufferred persecution. Abomination was placed by the temple as prophecied by Daniel.
Jesus was speaking with some his disciples, Mathew 24:2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
JW abuse this scripture when it was for his disciples. Also, not all would be preaching yet JWs it is mandatory.
Anyhow, why would anyone need to preach door to door when now there are churches at every corner also radio,and t.v. If JW really want to fullfill this scripture none would go door to door in the USA or Europe. All these areas knows about Jesus Christ so every JW would need to move to third world countries. Basically they really do not believe this is for modern times.

Taking my sister to church this Sunday!!!
by confusedandalone inso yesterday i stopped by my sisters home and decided to just hang out and shoot the breeze... she was telling me that since she has stopped going to the kingdom hall (the last 9 months) she still looks for things to do on sunday.
she feels she should go and do something and she likes the idea of church.
it seems fun and will giove her a place to meet people.

I hope the sermon is good! That makes all the difference. Many pastors just make up stuff because the church is a sleep.
Ignore the Trinity stuff that use to make me run for the door.
Enjoy!
Better to have some family!

JWs in a frenzy!
by leaving_quietly inanyone else get the distinct impression that jws are being worked up into a frenzy with all the changes and activity nowadays?
by the end of august, there will have been four campaigns inside of a year.
one last november, a memorial campaign, a convention campaign and an advertise jw.org campaign.. then there's the conventions with all the hooplah around that with all the video, and the aggrandizement of synchronized gb talks.

Leaving"I brought up the "strange instructions" thing because my very-much-in JW mother brought it up to me recently. If you think JWs aren't paying attention, think again. The problem is, they can't really see things for what they are. They're too busy being enamored with all the activity that they don't have time to sit down and actually prove everything to themselves. The organization does NOT give them any room to breathe for normal life, let alone actually studying. Since I stepped down as an elder two years ago, I've had that time to study, and it TAKES that much time to study. My elder brother-in-law recently told me he has NO TIME for deep research like me."
Congratulations with the deep studying! Do you find it impossible to know all the WT cover-ups! I gave up on researching JW history years ago because every rock I looked under was full of worms! So I stopped reading JW bible and picked up NOV and KG bibles plus a few more. The only research I really had to do was from reading the bible from beginning to end.
Now, your JW elder brother probably does not read his bible because one does not need to do research to get to know God or Jesus!
The bible, God's WORD proves false made up doctrines by the WT. You should suggest him to read his bible without publications.
Activities are just another way to stay busy so GB can come out with more changes. Too bad the activities are so unhealthy.

It allows for possibly thousands of millions of years for the formation of the earth and many millenniums in six creative eras, or “days,” to prepare the earth for human habitation.
Hmmm! It is not like I was a WT reader in the 90s! What the hell does that mean! Wt should just state that they no longer believe the creative six days and be done with it!
I really can not wrap my head around this change. Just a couple of nights,ago I was watching Cosmo and he said the earth was billions of years old. Love this program but I had a hard time with "billions" Although I am an ex-jdub I looked at my sister and stated,"We know creation took six thousand years so how could it be "billions of years old." Maybe that is one thing the WT got right!" She smiled and said, "Are you sure?" I said,"Yes." Lol!
Darn it! I give this organization just one little thing as right and they changed the dam doctrine fourteen years ago! Strange in 1999 I was too busy researches all the other major errors!
Errrrr! I am not laughing yet just smirking a little.
Happy everyone enjoyed the new movie! I was wondering if it was funny like the old version?

Yes, do your research! The WT is teaching wrong.

I never let my mom know too much of my adult business. I learned to separate family and friends.
