It is NOT The Watchtower Society anymore?!?
by email ini don't know if this has been posted recently but... .
i was just talking to a friend (a ms jw) that told me that he was told by the elders on a talk he was about to give that according to their last elders school there are instructions not to use the terms "the watchtower society" or "the society" or "the organization" anymore... but rather to now always use "the faithful and discreet slave" or "the slave"... .

What about praying NOW???
by JNS2 innow that my decision to leave the organization is made, there is definitely a sense of relief.
i know i'm leaving a controlling organization, not my faith in god.
so i'm still praying at various times during the day, but it has become a very odd thing now.

NWT,and OTHER Translations./ New Offer.
by Blueblades inthe offer for feb.is the new " draw close to god book ",released at the 2002 district convention.the jan.km.
says,"this publication is designed to help people use their own bible to draw close to god.their own bible, not the nwt.. yet the society claims for itself and its translation of the nwt.a peculiar freedom from what they define as "the misleading influence of religious traditions,which have their roots in paganism,they go on to insist that this "influence" has colored the inspired word of god".. so it is necessary for them to set aright the numerous examples of "human traditionalism"that is evidenced in ( all translations,) including your own bible ,from john wycliffe's to the present.your own bible has been interwoven to color the thought in support of a preferred religious view,an inconsistency and unreasonableness have been insinuated into the teachings of the inspired writings.. the endeavor of the new world bible translation committee has been to avoid this snare of religious traditionalism.. now my point of all of this is: how can they indict the great scholars of all translations, and elevate their own nwt.then tell the rank and file to offer the new book in feb.by lyingly telling the public,the householder,that this publication is designed to help you draw close to god by using your own bible ,which is inconsistent and unreasonable among other snares of religious traditionalisms.and not use the nwt which they claim avoids all of this .. so,when they come to your door this feb.to offer you the new book to read with your own bible,you can say "why should i use my own bible,its pagan,i want the nwt.

AWAKE Says We Shouldn't Judge Apostates!
by minimus inthe february 8, 2003 awake has an article entitled:"is there an unforgivable sin".notice the good news for apostates or those who once associated.
"some people who were once faithful christians have purposely drawn away from god, perhaps because of bitterness, pride, or greed, and are now apostate fighters against god's spirit.
they willfully oppose what the spirit is clearly accomplishing.

my dad died
by termite 35 indear everyone, my dad died suddenly and unexpectedly at the weekend.he did'nt turn up for a family dinner and my husband and i went to see if he was ok.he was dead.collapsed in his home.i can't stop shaking and i feel really sick.i've lost my mum and now my dad too.i wish i could sleep for months and wake when the pain has finished with me.
it hurts so much .sorry to bring everyone down-but i'm stressed at having to sort out his arrangements due to the autopsy and funeral etc and the house and my feelings.
; i just wanted to tell you all as my husband's gone for a walk and the children are asleep and i'm feeling scared about viewing his body, but i know i'll have to and i feel guilty for feeling like that.stupid thoughts racing through my mind at the moment-need to 'hear' a friendly voice .
