Thankfully someone is correcting these mistakes. Even better to have them brought to our attention. It's like having a personal secreary!

@Kurt Thanks. Great posting. Loads here I haven't got. Can't see why anyone has any concern over these old publications and how they fuel apostastates........ I just don't know????

Can't see a contention with this? After all Isaiah 46:9-10 makes it clear that: "I am the Divine One and there is no other God, nor anyone like me; the One telling from the beginning the finale, and from long ago the things that have not been done; the One saying, ‘My own counsel will stand, and everything that is my delight I shall do’;" Can't be.

As do the heavens. This is an observation, and is only a proof of what the Bible "says". Nothing more.

The Namgungs: Imprisoned for Their Faith
Evacuated replied to a topic in Jehovah’s Witnesses's Topics
Thanks for the jw tv link. Always very useful as I am careful with YouTube. -
I've said it. Balaam wasn't able to curse God's people. Neither are you. Your jibes are impotent and your sarcasm serves only to speak the truth, albeit against your will. I'm not calling you names or playing games. There is no need. You walk with no disguise. And your feelings....I wouldn't want to add to the pain you exhibit in these postings, so there's no hidden venom here. It's you who suggested I am a donkey, although I could take that as a compliment in context. But no, I can't claim that role, so I have just referred you to an appropriate posting. Anyway, I see you have the point, and as for the topic, it feels just about exhausted so I'm gonna "pass the plate."

Man! I think you're talking to yourself here because I for one do not understand your logic. You have obviously suffered some kind of trauma along the line and you have my sympathy for that. But... this is not a language thing so don't resort to that as an excuse. This a logic thing. I would like to understand you. Please give a little more thought to what you are trying to express. You will have my attention if you take the time to make sense.

1&2. Rev.2:10: That he should stand firm. Matt.10:17-18: That his enemies get a witness. Matt 5:42 Pray that maybe even enemies come to their senses. 3. Col.4:12: Pray for him to stand firm. Acts 25:11: Pursue legal means to effect reversal of ignorant injustice. Matt.25:36: Provide assistance and comfort if possible: 4. Good will always come for those who endure under trial, but James 1:13 remains true.

Tutorial for Making Donations Electronically
Evacuated replied to Jack Ryan's topic in Jehovah’s Witnesses's Topics
I can't see anything particularly sinister about publicising the manner in which donations can be made to fund the worldwide work of Jehovah's Witnesses. It would actually be pretty naive to ommit to do this nowadays, as electronic systems have changed the options available, and opened up a way of reducing the costs involved in processing money. Equally, to suggest ways that experienced ones can help those who are unfamiliar with electronic donation methods is completely practical and of great assistance to those who wish to use these channels, but feel a little daunted by the methods. To have this as a meeting item is beneficial, as it covers all of the various contribution methods currently available and alerts all present to these varied facilities. To make such information geographically specific by means of the website is also highly efficient. I have found contribution methods to nearly always be a topic of interest to new ones I bring to the meeting. Not only do they expect to contribute something to costs, but they are often puzzled as to why so little is said about money. This sometimes arouses suspicion on their part as to some sort of financial "whammy" that might be waiting in the wings should they pursue their interest. So having information on contribution methods clearly available and transparent is indeed prudent. Considering the content of the video, it would seem to fit the generally held view of such contributions as "unsolicited". https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/nonprofits-difference-between-solicited-unsolicited-rosana-ortega/ It is true that religions in general have behaved in a scandalous manner with regard to "unrighteous riches", unashamedly heaping great reproach on God's name, as pointed out so ably by George Carlin. Notwithstanding, people are still willing to contribute to what they feel is a good cause, and I am regularly given funds by members of the public as a contribution to our work which, even if they do not belong to our movement, they see as genuine and above board. Most people I witness to quickly see that with Jehovah's Witnesses, they get much value for actually no money at all. I am happy to contribute to an organisation that seeks to genuinely preach "the good news of the kingdom", and most of those who stick around are of the same mind. (I will let the cynics blow their hot gas about fancy suits, expensive watches, "misappropriated" Kingdom Hall funds, legal expenses etc. etc. themselves.)- 5 replies
