i've heard about his bombastic, overly patronising, cartoon-ish delivery before, but i'd never actually seen it...until now.
and i should add, this religion bears little to no relation to the one i left 6 years ago.. .

I sent the link to my seventy year old sister who special pioneered and pioneered for over fifty-five years and although she will not write me or talk to me she finally responded with where did you find this and she loved it ever so so much.
You got to be kidding me. I thought she had more brains than that. That totally surprised me. Oh well, at least I finally got to hear from her. I guess I will need to send her more videos but not of that sort. Sheesh!
see minute 6:25 "with your support....".

At 53 seconds he flips his flimsy plastic bible open and you see the scripture he has to read highlighted in yellow. There are quite a few religions that frown on any writing or highlighting in bibles and this mouth full of marbles makes sure he offends those ones. And I just knew they would have a music video put on.
Yeah, right on, Zoos! Spreading (as the elders stated at my judicial hearing and I have it on tape) our magazines of half truths all over the world.
i stumbled on to this on youtube.. i began watching it.
at first i thought it was funny.. then, something changed.
i began to realize two things.. first of all, there are 2 sides to this, and both sides have a point.. if law enforcement does not have a legal right to stop and question you .
Even when you tell them the truth, they don't seem to want to believe you. We were crossing over into the States and told them we were getting gas and stopping for a coffee and then coming back over into Ontario. They made us get out of our vehicle and sit in a room with four other scary looking guys for three and a half hours in a tiny room. Then, we were allowed to leave.
Thanks Terry for this video. A real eye opener for sure.
an odd letter was read at last nights' meeting.
it was in regards to a special campaign for next year arranged by the governing body to go and preach in israel.
the call is going out to anybody that speaks hebrew and english.
Wasn't there youtube videos posted where the witnesses were in a gym or building and there were rocks being thrown through the windows at them????
We were introduced to someone's bible study at one of our last conventions that we had attended and they were from Israel taking courses at a university up here. The wife had stated that when she goes back home to her country, they will not be able to preach there like it is here and that we should be grateful to have the freedom that they are not allowed to have there.
Now all of a sudden the sisters are good enough to go and risk their lives. Honest to god this religon has no boundaries when it comes to their greed. WOW!!!

from barbara anderson, former watchtower headquarters researcher and writer, on another recent thread:.
it is expected that at the 2014 annual meeting, usually held the first saturday in october, will serve watchtower leaders well to cover-up all the 100-years of prophetic nonsense.
rumor has it they are going to celebrate their 100-years of announcing the kingdom in an adroit way by featuring a move of "great" significance to do with the expansion of the governing body to an "apostolic" 12 or some other fantasy idea.. .
12 earthly apostles plus 12 heavenly = the 24 elders in heaven sitting around the throne. Let me guess, they will make Rev 4:4,10;5:8;11:16;19:4 all about them. Oops, also forgot Rev 19:5 - "Be praising our God, all you his slaves, who fear him, the small ones and the great. (Domestics and anointed ones=slave)

I use to say to my husband that they are so arrogant, I'm surprised they aren't calling themselves the twelve apostles. Doesn't surprise me. You have Mark, Stephen, Samuel, David ect,,, Now they will be picking their candidates on first name basis to match the names of the apostles as well. And that will be the only credentials required. Oh, and that they can count up to twelve!
so last night i was talking to my sister about how i admired president obama's speech to the u.n that happened earlier that day.. i then compared the extremism of isis to how much of a fanatic my jw bil is.. at the end of the statement , my mom walked in to the kitchen.
she was standing in the living room and she heard everything i said.. she called the elders that night to tell them what i said so they can counsel me.. i'm going to meet with them after the meeting on sunday!.
what do i do?!!!!!.
Tell them since their faithful and discreet slave is invisible like jesus ruling since 1914, then you want your judicial committee to be invisible as well. What? That's impossible? Or don't you believe my judicial committee can be invisible? Get offended and hurt and tell them your stumbled. Why is it ok to believe their twist on the scriptures but not the other way around? When you go to miss meetings then tell them you were there every week, invisibly. Then puke on their shoes invisibley.

Only Yeshuah (Jesus) can read the heart.

is your life over?
are you totally screwed up?
are you able to move on?
Which of all those questions do you want answered first,Minimus?LOL
this is my first post although i have been reading on this board for over a year now.
i just had to post because i saw the most unbelievable thing the other night - a commercial for jehovah's witnesses.
a couple nights ago i couldn't sleep and i turned on the tv.
A few years back we had seen a commercial where two guys meet in a park and do a drug deal. It was so lame for the two guys were clean cut and well dressed in the video. It finishes with the big reference bible and scripture in Deut 6:6,7 about inculcating the word day and night.
