two things i noted at this year’s rc.
1) the new teaching with respect to matthew 25:45 which was applied equally to the rank & file jw.
this teaching is also found in the watchtower study for last sunday.. then he will answer them, saying: ‘truly i say to you, to the extent that you did not do it to one of these least ones, you did not do it to me.. 2) the new armageddon video which was a big shift.
wt doctrine is exactly the opposite of what the bible writers put down about Jesus' sayings. He said "--the least of my brothers--", Calling the magnificent 8 in Warwick the least, rather than the top dogs is not wt doctrine.
Finding the least of the brothers or sisters in any congregation would be easy, just watch the cliques in action, and the ones they ignore.
Have not seen change in that. have you?
i was wondering if racial bias is a factor in u.s. education?.
would you be concerned if it was?
why would you be concerned?.
It is not skin colour. some of the smartest children are consistently not necessarily white.
check the spelling contests. The bias at Harvard.
Yes! the speed of sound is three times greater and the impact more intense in water than in air, so putting distance between you and the abuser by surfacing is greater than you think.
Used to watch the mudskippers. way to go skipper!

How about the bible expert. President Duterte? https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-44610872
so, this week on the clm there was an interesting comment at our kh.. under the "apply yourself to the field ministry" portion this week, there was the bible study assignment based on the publication: who are doing jehovah’s will today?
published in 2016. the material was from lesson 28 "what can be found on our website?
there is a footnote at the bottom that reads: .
Intelligent answer, and not Wt line. They would prefer to deny, and have the "publisher" loose credibility and avoid that door like the pest, never to be challenged, confronted again.
when i was a jw it was always emphasized that we should trust in jehovah completely.
jah will protect his people do not trust in man, throw your burdens upon jehovah etc.ok now if that's true wouldn't it mean that if jehovah was going to protect anywhere it should be his world head quarters right?.
we were told to not trust in ourselves (such as guns,walls for defense and protection) but to leave it in jehovah's hands and he would provide a means for escape etc.so as i'm watching some pro-wt vid's about the facilities in warwick i noticed something they didn't show on them or focus on and only reason i know about it was because of the w5 newscast as well as the vids the protesters shared.they conveniently leave out the parts of them putting walls/fences and gates as well as a "guard shack" at entrance instead of relying on jehovah to protect them.the guard house even has a "no trespassing" sign in the window.
jws armed the Gilead location in (really) upstate NY with shot guns during WW2.
N. Knorr and M. Henschel are documented to have carried steel rods as guards during Rutherford's reign.
Angels need visible backup.
reading some post on here today has me wonder ing if there is some others out there that understands the duplicet fickle person i am on the inside.
i was brought to the kingdom hall 3-4 times a week.
to this day i have an aversion totuesdays.
really sorry to listen to you, and have no answer, was always too absorbed in projects to have problems like that come to the surface.
so, I can not come to your help, but If I would be I, I would get working. but then you are you. is there an equivalent you have?

True, My JW wife has Claustrophobia - the fear of having no escape in a closed space
What a Psychologial manipulaters, these GB are
Yeah, There was a watchtower illustration too, about the "valley of salvation" the jws being led into a narrow gully. Others are afraid of heights, wt has a phobia for everyone. It must have been agoraphobia at the last convention.
re:' the doing of good', if this is true, wt has declared all to be "brothers of Christ" what a demotion for "partakers".
i see stories like this one, and think we are losing our way as a nation.
reverting to tribalism and racism.
i wonder if its always been there lurking beneath the surface, and it just took someone to encourage it a bit.. https://edition.cnn.com/2018/06/26/us/woman-berates-man-viral-rant-don-lemon-cnntv/index.html?utm_medium=social&utm_content=2018-06-26t08%3a30%3a04&utm_term=link&utm_source=fbcnn.
Kudos for these hardworking latinos, excelling in 2 jobs. Was hosted by their countrymen during the 2017 eclipse, and they had the best tended gardens. pride in their share of US soil, but not soul.
If you do not assimilate, and as a result stand out, even are outstanding, it can backfire. Think of the jewish people in Germany, having more german names than the germans, outstanding in many fields. A truly sad story. Hopefully Israel is the safe way out. Putting distance between you and the others is a great idea. imho.
great to see such an eager young team.
harry kane is incredible.
oops..you'll have to click on the play on youtube link below.
no, it is a nightmare to find a live channel. it used to be easy, at least one major tv network carried it. what a mess.
