august 12, 2016 to all bodies of elders in the united states branch territory re: obtaining video equipment for displaying spiritual programs.
spiritual_programs_video_equipment_kits-e.
From what I can tell in that letter, if they go through the LDC (RBC) they have to use those 2 different sets. If they get approval to buy locally, I guess they can buy whatever they want.
I'm curious about the actual make and models of TVs. I do some AV stuff for work and some of those larger displays CAN get expensive depending on the brand. Same with the other equipment. Without knowing that info, I can't really say if the congregations are getting hosed on those price tags.
this video showed a married brother with three children living in a nice domicile and working full time.
his employer demands that he change his working pattern such that it conflicts with his being able to attend wt meetings at the weekend.
the brother decides not to yield to his employer’s demand and is thus dismissed.. the brother seeks for work very actively over a significant period but without any alternative being found.
When my wife (who is still not awake yet, dammit) was a kid, their house burned down. NO ONE from the congregation did a fucking thing to help.
hi all, just wondering if there's anything going around about the elders receiving instruction from the society to give inactive ones and disfellowshipped ones one last chance to come back?
i ask because i have a still in family member that i received a message from, and urging me to go back.
the elders are apparently saying there is no time left.
They've been saying there is no time left since before 1914.
for those who've never read these incredible books by our friend ray franz.. here are links for both.
.
happy reading!.
It's pretty hypocritical that people have an issue with this but have no problem downloading and distributing WT books that were scanned and uploaded. That's a copyright violation too.
we all know the story of daniel in the lions den.
king darius and daniel best of friends, so.
what happen.
Looking back on it, it's pretty easy to see that the book of Daniel is just a fairy tale for jews. He's basically a superman who can literally do anything and he always does the right thing, comes out on top every time.
as i write this under the shadow of the walls of saint jorge's castle in lisbon, two very bored jws are standing just five metres away from me with a literature cart .... in my journey away from jwism i accepted evolution as a fact.
i also became anti-religion, agnostic and apatheist.
and, while i lean towards the persuasion of the atheist arguments, there are a few reasons that make it difficult for me to completely discard the notion of an intelligent origin of life.
This is just a cleverly disguised "this shit is so complex there must be a creator" argument.
it is a pain that certain individuals pride themselves on hating god, who created everything.
like it's understandable that you choose to not believe in him because of your selfishness or thinking skills but to hate him is forcing it a bit.
i'm very thankful that those such as myself have the courage to believe in the lord.
without going into details.
it appears that new light might be coming down the pipes that beards are acceptable.
well yeah there's a new WT article that sorta says that but it also gives elder bodies/branches/GB leeway to forbid them.
i discovered this on youtube, it's quite recent:.

the woman's story sounds believable and credible, but i just don't know.
don't post this fucking garbage.
and yet another sale of watchtower property.... http://www.ibj.com/articles/59973-suburban-mega-church-expanding-into-downtown-with-big-purchase.

anyone want to pull up some juicy quotes about how JW's aren't supposed to have business dealings with FALSE RELIGION
