"Probably You Might be Saved" - Somewhere in Zephaniah As I Recall
by Perry inthe watchtower (and old-timers in the org) love to quote old testament passages that were directed toward israel.
however, the new testament is "a better covenant based upon better promises".. in the following verses, salvation is not described as a possibility, but as a certainty, as a present possession for the original christians:.
justification is a present possession (rom.

Could the WT have paid of large loans when it sold NY properties?
by StephaneLaliberte init seems that everyone is taking for granted that the sociaty has made 1 billion in profit.
could anyone tell me why it would not be a posibility that the society had a large number of mortgages attached to these properties?
wouldn't that explain the latest monney grab from the congregations?.

Most of the properties the WTBTS had in brooklyn the owned going back decades in time. The only one they could have owned money on would have been maybe Bossert or 90 sands and if I remember correctly those were paid out. Patterson and Walkill as well.

I had family study with my wife and kids about 10 times in the entire 14 years of marriage. They lasted 15 minutes tops. We used coloring books 2 times. My son was scared of one of the illustrations. We just never did it again

Lois, when I was handling the business aspect of the trip it was completely different. I had so many people who were nice and took us to beautiful places to eat. Usually small venues and most of the people in these locations were professionals. After that aspect of things was completed we went to see some "brothers" that were friends from a city named Ebina or Eboona someothing along those lines.
We went to local places and some of the folks there kind of enjoyed the attention. So they made a big deal out of things around the local people there. I think that started the downward skid for us in that area. At first people touching my hair etc... was not bad but my wife was highly uncomfortable so I became uncomfortable as well. Had I been by myself and all these pretty Japanese women wanted to touch my hair and skin I would have been in heaven LOL.
We ended up going to a local place for sushi and things there went downhill. Not sure why but they did. I think if I went by myself it would be easier to handle, but with an angry wife and then the monkey thing it got a little tough.
Maybe next time you can show us around Lois!

Listener - Not to be stupid but how do they treat darker skinned people. We went to Japan and it was very uncomfortable.
People randomly touched me, they would pat my hair etc in public places. Some people asked me and my wife to take pictures and my wife started getting upset when people would want to touch her hair as well. LOL
Then there was the issue with monkey noises when we went to eat with some of the brothers... I made a scene but my wife called me down. Then the brothers that took us there were kind of upset and things went south from there, which I wont even get into. LOL the brothers apologized before we left but it was 10 days from hell.

by compound complex ingreetings to all who surf shark-infested internet waters.. after i was hit by ransomware the other day, i did research on so-called safe sites.

talesin - " Linux can be a bit difficult for the average user (like me, hehe), do you agree, CAA?"
You are right Gentoo and slackware can be very challenging for a typical PC user. Ubuntu is pretty easy to learn out of the box and has alot of security features that are great. However, you are right it does take some time to make most distros worth using useable.

LoisLane looking for Superman - "Karter mentioning New Zealand, sounds good. I have been to NZ as a JW drone. It was fun for me to drive on the other side of the road. (Yikes! lol )"
I tried this in Jamaica Lois... i almost got us killed LOL. I just can not get out of my head to not drive on the right side. There were times when a car was coming toward me and I just jammed the breaks out of confusion.
