The hook that keeps these suckers plopping right back into the muck that masquerades as "spiritual food in due season" is the question which reveals their arrested devrlopment:
"Where else shall we go?".
Wrong question. This question is told by WT, but the bible shows us:
(John 6:68, 69) 6Simon Peter answered him: “Lord, whom shall we go away to? You have sayings of everlasting life. 69 We have believed and have come to know that you are the Holy One of God.”
just come here to vent a bit.
last night we had one of those meeting where i had a hard time keeping my eyes from rolling.
i tell you, sometimes i think they have a mind of their own, my eyes that is.
i saw this at the kingdom hall after the meeting.

Wait some month. This year the society will provide little business cards for the publishers. Maybe they will announce them on the international DC.
The business cards are now printed and on the way to the branches. They will be provided to the publishers -10 or 20 pieces per publisher (the cards were not printed in the branches).
On the front is a picture, the text "Jehovahs witnesses" and the jworg logo.
Backside contains Luke 11:28 and also the invitation for jworg and the QR-Code.
does anyone know if the name "jehovah" appears 237 times in their revised nt as in previous versions?.
secondly, is there any evidence from wt literature that jws will take an active part in destroying the wicked at armageddon.

in the NT it's the same number (237 times)
4 more times - here the "new" places:
Judges 19:18
1 Samuel 6:3
1 Samuel 10:26
1 Samuel 23:14
1 Samuel 23:16

january 1 1989 contains the quote on page 12 "he was laying a foundation for a work that would be completed in our 20th century.
" this was later changed in the bound volume and on the cd library to "in our day.".
hi all, i haven't posted here in a while, felt like a break and have been insanely busy, i don't think too much about jw stuff now, but wanted to pop in anyway.
have i missed anything recently?.
i am very happy, much to my surprise, i think it would be nice to go back to the end of 2013 and tell the depressed and lonely version of me that he can't even comprehend how good life could be.
@ Laika
even your dog looks much more happy
the first step to fading is to begin missing the meetings.. "if" anyone misses you, a quality excuse must be at the ready.
this will produce empathy toward you as opposed to suspicion.. 1. car problems ( don't mention that you caused them ).
2. stuck on the phone resolving insurance, billing, etc issues.. 3. sick ( of the meetings ).
check this one out and share with your jw friends if you can get away with it.

Thanks for this video, great example for a happy "after-cult-life"
i have been with an in active jw for 6 years, she now wants to marry and have a child, will she want to bring a child up as a witness, she says not but any experiences?
will she start go back once we are married?
(i'm a non jw)
@ stevepill
You are in a very difficult situation. If SHE is only inactive but still a JW, EVERY JW will always try to get her back to be an active JW. If she still believe, JW ist "the truth", she could go back every moment. You never will know - maybe she will never, maybe tomorrow, maybe in 1 year.
But - she can only go back, if she do NOT live together with a person without be married.
In my opinion the only way is, to show her, that JW don't have the truth.
i just started to watch the february broadcast when i noticed a metallic rattle over the drone of sam's voice.
(does that man speak with a mouth full of chowin' tobacco or is he choking on the rubbish he reads off the autocue?).
yep it's his rolex.
