JJJ-AUSTRALIA

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. @Joan Kennedy and @Jack Ryan as a JW or exjw we should be free to express our thoughts, if we don't like anything we can always use our ignore button and show more Christ qualities than telling someone to shut up.

Not being sexist.

If the Governing Body want to interpret it so literally, it should only be virgin men according to revelation

Lol my wife and I had the same question, if women aren't currently allowed to do much at all within earthly organisation apart from cleaning, witnessing and other non important jobs what jobs will they be allowed to do in the heavenly realm perhaps they will be genderless once they become spiritual entities my best guess... But then again the angels in Noah's day decided to become man instead of woman so there must be an inclination or a gender identification within spiritual entities. Too deep this subject 😳...

Jajajaja habrá que dejarlo como un misterio inespicable.. 😆😆😆 pero voy ha ver q puedo encontrar sobre esto...

Debe ser algo de gramática en inglés 

Ni idea pero creo aver escuchado en un discurso cuando apenas recibimos la de inglés que unos de los diferencias de otras traducciones de las biblias fue q la razón q nuestra tradición no se llama la biblia es x q la palabra biblia no se encuentra en la biblia y por esa razón el esclavo fiel y descreto no la llamaron La biblia, por eso me llamo mucho la atención. 

Porque será q la tradición en español dice La Biblia y la de inglés no?

Alguien uploaded este documento sobre las nuevas contribuciones o donaciones.

What annoyed me at the assemblies was that there was always a deficit. In the weeks that followed, congregations were encouraged to donate money. Then, when the deficit was filled, instead of keeping the surplus for the next assembly, as would do any good manager, it was sent to the Watchtower as a "contribution" for Matthew 24:14. In consequence, the next assembly was still in deficit.

Yeah happens here in Australia too, they will say during the assembly bank account has $, donated all $ to the world wide work, expenses for this assembly is $, donations collected $, so far we are in defecit of $. My wife and I were talking about it and that seems a very dodgy tactics to make people to donate more. 

I wonder how many others sees it that way at the assemblies.

Cool video learnt a few new things

Mi esposa y yo no hemos hecho ninguna donación por años, por muchas razones. 

Baruq Apparently is only "understandable" because she is fighting to get compensated as she is not a JWs. What about all JWs that were abused and are still in the organisation they should get compensated too... but hard as we are not supposed to talk about it or to know anything about it...

Do you want to say that she should not have complained about being raped?

That's how I understood the comment too...

Lol this reminds me of a comment during this weekend meeting where a sister is so obiblious of all the child sex abuse within JW organization that she made the comment that all so Christians religions are full of problems and specially regarding child sex abuses where that would never happen within our lovely Christian organization of brothers and sisters.... Yeah right in what world she lives in and that's how many millions of other JWs have no idea. Obviously she didn't watch our Australian Royal Commission.... 

How do we know that is built to be sold off as a comercial use later on?

Jajajaj mi ejemplo q me referia era en forma metafóricamente sobre los manuscritos, tampoco creo q ellos dejaran manuscritos.... 

@Indiana pues creo que hay dos puntos de vista...

1.es como decir a Jesus y sus apostoles puedes predicar y dejar manuscritos sobre jehovah.

2. Es cono decir a  Jesus y sus apostoles pueden predicar pero no dejen nada q los puedan incriminar de ser cristianos . 

 Jesus y sus apostoles escojerin.... ?

Hoy escuché una experiencia en el discurso público sobre la rebeldía, no recuerdo las palabras exactas pero va más o menos así: 

En un país donde nuestra obra está proscrita, el cuerpo de ancianos de una congregación acordó dar instruir a los publicadores que al predicar, podrían hablar con las personas pero no dejarles ningún tipo de publicación. 

Un hermano pensó: "¿Cómo es posible que no dejemos publicaciones? Estas personas necesitan ayuda, si no leen las publicaciones no podrán entrar al Nuevo Mundo". Habiendo hecho caso omiso a las instrucciones de parte de los ancianos, dejó literatura en manos de alguien, no había caminado mucho cuando la policía ya estaba detrás de ellos. Se lo llevaron a él y a otros hermanos por su acto de rebeldía y de cobardía ya que al ser interrogado dio nombres y direcciones de los hermanos. 

¿Qué les parece? 

Or nothing in mind, i just didn't see the corelation  to Jehovah's story with Loki and Thor working together against their evil sister. That was all...  😆

My personal opinion, i think the closed circuit blood rule is a bit too extreme.... i will be more than happy to use my own blood stored in blood bags for surgery.

But didn't loki ended up fighting along side with Thor against the evil big monster....? And what about  their sister...

I'm sure you can't  count that as your service time, i think is done for advertising instead.

I think religion and school or religion and work places should be kept seperate.

We always referred ourselves as soy un testigo de Jehova, nunca he oido alguien que diga soy uno de los testigos de jehova..... pero bueno sinceramente me suena lo mismo 😂🤣😆

Yeah probably, languages somethings doesnt make sense....😂🤣😆

That is so weird tho, i've never heard anyone referring to themselves as One of the Jws rather a Jws.

Is like saying i am One of the Australians instead of saying i am an Australian. Weird...

Either spanish or english doesn't make much of a difference, i might be wrong tho.

Perhaps when saying i am one of the JW insinuates you are one of many others JWs but when you say i am a JW doesnt imply the above.

But at the end of the day doesnt really matter which one is used! 

Definitely the bottom one looks way better eventho i disagreed with some of the colours choices hahahaha
