@akha_khedera@LeafLee6 Had a parent back in the 90s lose all but 14% of their blood due to sudden internal bleeding. Refused blood and they barely survived it. Months and months of therapies and daily shots of who knows what after they came home from the hospital was hard on them.
@Larchwood20 Deut 22:28,29 they conveniently left these verses out. I wonder how many back room marriages were arranged by a committee of elders over the years that were rapes that were never reported…🧐
@ihavemanylayers @Pommawolf Chapter 5 talks about Adam having sons and daughters after Cain and Abel. In chapter 4, cain takes a wife and his first born is Enoch. It could be inferred that this was one of Cain’s sisters potentially 100 years in the future. Doesn’t make sense to me tho.
@ihavemanylayers @Pommawolf Then there’s the whole “Cain was banished to the land of nod where he took a wife from that area”… Where did she come from? Genesis 4:16
@Larchwood20 So if someone is “inactive” and not considered a member, by law would they be ineligible for any judicial action by the elders? Or am I reading this article wrong?
@Ron_POMO@Introvigne “The loss of the salary is my exit cost. Shunning is a typical exit cost. “
This is just dumb. Your former coworkers can still go out for drinks without fear of losing their job. This guy…🤦♂️😂
@Larchwood20 I still firmly believe that this new light is to placate bummed out PIMIs who don’t like the idea of their shunned family members perishing in Armageddon. This will backfire in more ways than 1.
@miss_usato This, like all the other articles similar to this one, will ultimately backfire. The org lacks the self awareness to see how not being specific and very vague makes them look; like a huge cult trying to hide something. They do the work for us! 🤦♂️
@CultWisDumb This tactic of carrot dangling of privileges has been to their detriment, especially when the rules don’t always apply to everyone (cough cough elders sons cough cough). It makes your average brothers bitter and complacent. Keep it up WT…
@Larchwood20 If all you see is how many hours the prominent ministers in the congregation are putting in and then 1 big average active witness number worldwide, that info can be easily misconstrued to look way better than it actually is. Genius move WT…
@Larchwood20 Imagine if you are good with numbers and sit down to review the new Figs. coming in and seeing 40-50% decline in hours and Bible studies. That would fly in the face of “unprecedented growth” the org keeps touting. That’ll make anyone second guess themself.
@Ron_POMO CO’s, missionaries, special, regular and auxiliary still report time. It’s just for the R&F publisher to not report time, only activity spent in the field ministry.
@Ron_POMO There will be one more box where publishers can report the number of different Bible studies they conduct. Missionaries, circuit overseers and their wives, special pioneers, regular pioneers, and auxiliary pioneers will continue to report the number of hours they spend in the
@Liliplum2 A few things wrong with this video. First, I don’t think they are supposed to allow children at the carts, and second they are not supposed to engage with the general public unless they are approached first. Last is this is a pathetic use of kids. 🤮
