fellow witnesses - do you think the kingdom hall belongs to you, just because you all paid for it and personally finance its maintenance?
think again, sheep!
the "shepherds" have announced the fleecing in black & white for you, in case you decide to question them!.
The GB has to fleece the sheep - to fulfill Ezek. 38:10-12:
... to attack the devastated places that are now inhabited and a people regathered from the nations, who are accumulating wealth and property, those who are living in the center of the earth.’ ” (Ezek. 38:10-12)
WT 2015-07-15, p 17, §10
I never thought about this, but with this WT I realized it.
hellloooo fellow apostates, mentally diseased devil worshippers :) how is everyone?.
today, i listened to a song about praying and how one can pray anywhere.
well, this song brought back the horror of sitting in restaurants, mcdonalds, coffee shops etc and having a group of brothers and sister bow their head and pray for what seemed to be an eternity.
(Matthew 6:5, 6) 5 “Also, when YOU pray, YOU must not be as the hypocrites; because they like to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the broad ways to be visible to men. Truly I say to YOU, They are having their reward in full. 6 You, however, when you pray, go into your private room and, after shutting your door, pray to your Father who is in secret; then your Father who looks on in secret will repay you.
1000 years <<like>> 1 day
Praying for a meal 2 hours later at home <<like>> some seconds later for god.
Should be no problem for him ;-)
i know of the local congregation's issues, per an elder i know quite well.
he has said that nearly everyone in the congregation is suffering emotionally and mentally.
he said he has never seen so many witnesses with so many problems.
Yes - JWs are hppy - because they live in the "spiritual paradise"
WT 2015-07-15 page 9 § 13
The existence of a spiritual paradise in the midst of a wicked, corrupt, and loveless world is a modern-day miracle! The wonders about Jehovah’s organization, or “Zion,” and the truth about the spiritual paradise must be joyfully passed on “to future generations.”
i do believe it is written somewhere in jw literature .
Crisis of Conscience
***w81 2/15 p.19 Do We Need Help to Understand the Bible?***
Born in's can prove there religion:
*** sm p. 16 par. 4 The Need to Search for the Truth ***
4 The man who truly surrenders himself to God is the one who carefully examines all aspects of the religion he was born into. If he finds it is true, he remains with it. But if he finds it is false, he sets out to find the true religion.

7 Yes, we may have received our religion from our parents, and we respect our parents. We owe them much, and many of the things they have given us are very good. But that does not mean we have to accept everything they say without thinking. Our parents are human, as we are. They make mistakes, as we do. In fact, many of the problems that we have to live with today are because of things that our parents’ generation did. They did not do them deliberately to make things hard for us. They just made mistakes, because of being human.
8 Hence, a wise man will examine the things he has received from his parents, including his religion. He will keep the good things and reject those things that are not good. This is essential if he is to find the truth about religion.

bobcat's recent post has led to this article in mar 15, 2015 wt, pp 7-11, par 9, 10:.
for many years, gods people found this approach to bible accounts faith strengthening.
why, then, have things changed?10 as we might expect, over the years jehovah has helped the faithful and discreet slave to become steadily more discreet.

10 As we might expect, over the years Jehovah has helped “the faithful and discreet slave” to become steadily more discreet. Discretion has led to greater caution when it comes to calling a Bible account a prophetic drama unless there is a clear Scriptural basis for doing so.
... it's like to become steadily more pregnant for a woman
A woman is pregnant - or is not pregnant.
The slave is discreet - or is not discreet.
i'm sure many of us have seen the local design construction video for elders that was leaked on youtube.
i saw a few seconds of it and was going to the library to download it, but at that point it was taken offline.
now, a heavily edited version is on jw broadcasting.
