Jesus's coming to be at the great tribulation....? Can anyone verify this ? and not in 1914 ?
waton ,can you verify this ?
Very interesting if correct .
I can see a mass exodus from the religion if this proves to be the case
Or an I reading into this more than I should ?

I have never heard of non jws attending except for family that is Invited
Same here my friend and i was in for 32 years and attended at least six congs. in two states of Australia.
And i could count on the one hand how many people ever attended a public talk without using the same finger twice who wasn`t a family member or friend of a JW. also.

Well said ozziepost and I have been out since 1993 , and I have made many friends outside of the religion .
And I`ve certainly made a life for myself just ask my wife LOL. without falling into debauchery or anything else the fear mongering JW`s preach that anyone who leaves is going to fall into.
RR , You were only in the religion for 10 years right ? however you have been on this site for 6 years ???
Take care

Severance TV Show
by Simon inwe watched the season 1 finale of this apple tv series last night.
what an amazingly well-done show!.
it's a surreal world, but based in our own, and you don't have a clue where the plot is really headed but the drama builds all the way through.. there were some major reveals about the characters and it ended on a peach of a cliffhanger, so if there isn't a series 2 already in production i'll be storming apple hq to ask why.. some of it may give you wts vibes, the cult-like world they live in and the "forced" celebrations for various things, but while some of it is a little "sci-fi" it's kind of believable.. in case you don't know the main premise is that it follows people around their work at a company with a very sterile-like environment.

An offer in exchange for some help.
by JeffT inas some of you might recall, i self-published a novel last fall.
i hoped “armageddon’s disciples” would be successful as my previous works (an alternate history trilogy) had done well.
not so with “disciples.” i’ve sold a total of nine copies.
