awake!
"if you are a young person, you also need to face the fact that you will never grow old in this present system of things.
because all the evidence in fulfillment of bible prophecy indicates that this corrupt system is due to end in a few years... therefore, as a young person, you will never fulfill any career that this system offers.
The GB / WT leaders, of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society /Jehovah`s Witnesses speak out of both sides of their mouth.
"New Light" from them always follows failed prophecys ,expectations ,evident realities , and failed predictions they have previously made .
And they have always blamed the rank and file for their mistakes , errors , and lies.
i'm actually looking forward to their warped view of matthew, mark, luke and john for this.
the drama from 2015 wasn't that bad.
however.... yeah steven lett mentions othe films about jesu are plagued with false religion.
Stephen Lett as a Demon possesed man?

really ? Maybe they were just adept at using hyperbole for effect .
What others can you come up with ?
so, in a couple weeks, the jws move on in their bible-reading slog to the book of deuteronomy.. take a gander at deuteronomy 23:12,13:.
a private place should be designated for use outside the camp, and there is where you should go.
13 a peg should be part of your equipment.
Maybe eating Manna doesn`t turn into shit , just saying.
now that there are no meetings to physically attend, i am in a position where i listen in to my wife's zoom calls.
i thought some of the ideas in last week's clam were a bit strange, for instance they harped on about being 'friendly' to non-jws but not to become 'friends' with them.
the poignant question being put to the audience; 'what is the difference between being friendly to an unbeliever and being his friend?'.
They dont seem to know the difference to being a friend or an associate ?
Having and being a friend is unconditional
Havind an associate "friend" is, or can be, conditional.
we do talk a lot about how this site doesn’t center on all things jw.
so what would you like to discuss?.
the floor is yours..

This thread/post should be a must read before anybody gets baptised as a JW or anybody else who takes the words in the Bible literally as GODS word.
Couldn`t GOD in all his power have provided latrines conveniently placed throughout the camp ?
don't know how many of y'all still watch it.. this month's topic is "the king of the north" - cook goes into monotonous detail over the jw interpretation about rome, germany, ussr, russia, etc.. leaving aside for other commentators the emotionally manipulative videos of jws in russian holding cells, the tearjerker interviews, the god-awful stiffness of cook (i suspect he has never genuinely smiled, much less laughed, in his 60+ years), just thought i'd comment on one topic.. the centerpiece of the program is a "morning worship" monologue from splane.
let's again just leave to the side the dude's pomposity, smugness, and inflated sense of his own genius, and think about this part of his monologue.. he was tracing the history of the "king of the north" and talked about how "britain" (not england, not the united kingdom, not great britain, but "britain" - no idea why they have that fixation - anyway...) became the kotn in the 19th century.. paraphrasing his comments: "britain would not have become kotn if france had its way.
france was much wealthier and more powerful, but at the battle of waterloo, britain defeated france.
I think back and wonder who was that person in my body when I beleived the green book ,"Your Will Be Done " or whatever it was called ,about the KOTN and the KOTS
i picked this book up at a flea market for three bucks.
the art work is great.
i love the satan and .
Why in that 1933 book Riches with the illustration ,does Adam have nipples ? I notice that he doesn`t have a belly button but why nipples ?
some of my jw family that is waking up posed that question to my jw family that is still hanging on to jw belief.. the stepbrother that posed that question told me;.
"in all these years of being a jw, i actually never gave it much thought as to why jehovah had to kill millions of innocent animals that had nothing to do with mankind becoming evil.".
i keep picturing in my mind, all the baby puppies and kitties that were destroyed by jehovah.
God killing all of his creative animals in a worldwide flood contradicts how he instructs humans to take care of animals in the Bible.
Does it not ?
