  New Music! Again!

  by DwainBowman in

  remember when we went to just piano music for the song's at the hall!

  it was supposed to be better etc etc!i remember many quietly complaining about the borning piano music, as compared to the orchestra music, and how much more lively and enjoyable it was!

  so for 30+ years, the sad borning piano noise was so great!now years later, all of a sudden, orchestra music is coming back, because it is so much more lively, and will make everyone really get into and enjoy it more!flip flops are in season, once again!

  They could be so distracting!

  Oh an the ones that show they, "think" they are such wonderful Opera singers! They instead disrupt, and show out, causing many nearby to quite evening trying!

  Flip Flops are in Season, once again! Even in the smallest of things, they flip and flop, just to keep everyone off balance, and excited about the crumbs from their banquet table!
  Even while playing the end is coming, it's at the door card, they are building, new and elaborate headquarters, and branch faculties all the world, stuff that will take years to finish! Just like the new orchestrated song music, it's going to take years, maybe 10 or more, with just a few coming out every year!

  Interesting conversation with this pentecostal today at work. It made me think.

  at work today a colleague was telling me how his church had purchased a van for the sole purpose of caring for their youth.

  he was saying every friday / saturday night the church organizes some event for its youth outside it's church services.

  they also have other services to that are provided free of charge for its members.

  Secret disfellowshipping

  by disillusioned 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i always thought it was ridiculous that when a person was disfellowshipped they didn't tell us why.

  everybody would speculate, but we wouldn't know the real reason.

  also i thought they were only supposed to be disfellowshipped if they weren't repentant and wouldn't stop doing the wrong thing.

  That story has been making the rounds for as long as I can remember! The city, and country changes now and then. Plus sometimes, in the story it just happened a few months ago. I also read it on a Moirman site not long back! I also heard it from a Baptist minister, that's also my cousin!

  Prayer During District Assemblies

  by Tenacious in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there's something that i've always wondered about yet could never truly understand.

  does anyone know why during district assemblies a prayer is done during the last day after coming back from lunch?.

  i can't quite remember if it's done other days but i believe this is done on the last day.

  There was also a time that after the lunch break, they had a gong and prayer, everyday! That ended in the 80's I think!

  Did You Feel Bad For the JW Dishwasher-Cook Who Quit His Job (May JW Broadcasting)To Avoid Attending Later Meetings?  He Pioneered on Welfare or Unemployment!

  by RoyalFlushPhil in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  did you watch the story about the jw who was working as a burger boy at some diner and his boss wanted him to work on sunday during the time of his meeting?

  this faithful jw decided he could not attend a later meeting (6 pm sunday meeting) and soon quit his job(or got fired to attend his sunday meeting) so he could attend the sunday meeting he was assigned to.

  i think he was on welfare because this story states he won't work on sunday morning because that's when his meeting is!

  Sadly there are lots of us that over the years quite good jobs for the Borg! I did at least twice. I never drew welfare of any kind, and went back to work quickly, less pay and benefits! If I had stayed at the first job, I would have been retired and not working so much about everything!

  Why doe New light tick me off???? Next 2 weeks WT Studies

  by zophar in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if you have been a jw for 20+ years you may remember that the wt went into great detail on different illustrations that jesus used and the "type/anti-type" ridiculous explanations.

  remember the revelation book and how those obscure jw conventions of the past pictured big things in heaven and the opening of seals?

  anyway, the wt lessons for the next two weeks do two big things for me.
