  Do they even realise how disgustingly immoral this is and how badly it reflects on the God they worship?

  found this little gem when going through the daily texts.... so let me get this straight.... god knows your suffering really badly and wants to help.

  he knows you feel like you're at your limit, but he also knows that you are not really - that you can handle some more suffering.

  so instead of helping, he "patiently" waits till you are at your absolute limit, and only then does he help!?.

  Job is a good example of being helped.Poor bloke was used as a martyr.l often wonder if god was put on a death bed in severe with one day to live if things would be different.Probably not.

  Why is there such a 'high turnover' within the Jehovahs Witnesses?

  by UnshackleTheChains in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i happened to come across a time article in 2008. it was basically talking about the high turnover in american faiths.

  it mentioned the jdubs and highlighted the following point.. an even more extreme example of what might be called "masked churn" is the relatively tiny jehovah's witnesses, with a turnover rate of about two-thirds.

  that means that two-thirds of the people who told pew they were raised jehovah's witnesses no longer are — yet the group attracts roughly the same number of converts.

  The real problem they have now is the internet.People that find out whats really going on behind the scenes of the organization do talk and this has an ongoing negative affect which results in an effect and the problem the society has of more people leaving compounds leaving the GB with the question (what can we do about this)?Their stuffed.

  As my short time on earth is nearing its end l am more inclined to think we may very well be living in some type of simulation made by a creator or creators.The 2 slit experiment is evidence of this.But who knows?

  AGM - Are they now teaching predestination?

  by Doubting Bro in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  another agm thought.

  in tight pants tony's part, he mentioned several times that jehovah draws those he chooses and only those rightly disposed would come in.

  and individuals that liked the literature but made no progress towards becoming jw were a "waste of time".. was he setting the stage for them introducing the thought of predestination?

  Do They Still do Door-to-Door as Much as Before?

  by cofty in

  since the advent of the trolleys do the majority of jws still go door to door like we used to?.

  do they still have meetings for field service on sat mornings and sun afternoons where most head off to the local territory while one or two go to do trolley work or has the importance of door to door work reduced?.

  with the reduction of printing wts and awakes what will they offer at the doors?.
