this person even do,nt know that preaching"from door to door "is not biblical preaching!!!nowhere in Bible is any statement of true christianity of runing from "door to door" and giving monthly reports to those"hollies"
voluntarly preaching from door to door is your own decission of your christian freedom not obey forced laws of man doctrines and additions to your faith remember Rev 22;18-19....this words means to all of churches and organizations included WTBS JW GB
that is a whole different subject BOBBY.

All I am asking about is if TPMP ever went door to door as a publisher.

The biblical merit behind that is not even teh subject.

I will give you teh benefit of the doubt since english isnt your first language.

thank you for your answer
My comment is not against you? only if doing something as law man neccesity? fit biblical points? only Bible can lead you or anybody to true salvation,not man made laws not having biblical sense of true christianity.I encourage you to the Bible only HIS WORD WILL GIVE YOU SPIRITUAL COMFORT.
I am sure you are smart enough and read my posts,and you know my neutral position,if WTBS JW would teach 100% bible teachings I am first defender of this group,I love sacrifice some WTBS JW GB brothers and sisters
may God richly bless you

Okay, I'm now convinced that this is a convention of cats walking on keyboards. Only one or two of you makes any sense at all. I'll leave it to you to decide which ones.

Yes, I recall this one between a circuit overseer and a district overseer. And there were likey many other times that we don't know about.
(Acts 15:38-39) But Paul did not think it proper to be taking this one along with them, seeing that he had departed from them from Pam·phyl&#8242;i·a and had not gone with them to the work. 39 At this there occurred a sharp burst of anger, so that they separated from each other; and Bar&#8242;na·bas took Mark along and sailed away to Cy&#8242;prus.
In the last circuit i was in. There were two brothers from the same sister congregation who were both elders who weren't even on speaking terms with each other.

I mean these brothers couldn't stand one another. I think that if they could both get way with it, they would have come to blows.

In Puerto Rico we have a sasying "Two male crabs fighting for space in the same cave"!.LOL!......That was pretty much them!

I don't know what happened. The elders were real tight lipped with that one, but thet definetlely had a serios personality clash.

They were supposed to be taking the lead and encouraging the publishers.

I gyess these thingd happen, i've seen a lot oif things through the years in the congo's........Good and bad in all fairness!

Anyway, finally one transferred out of the congo. One of themn had to go. It was starting to affect the congregation.

A little bit of humility on their part would have been blessed by Jehovah had they shown it yo each other though!

Heh. What makes you think I am prey rather than predator? Mwa ha ha!

Actually, I'm rethinking my original impression. Cats on keyboards would be less, er...less pedantic. Perhaps you are all just monkeys with typewriters after all. C'mon, gang! Let's have some Shakespeare!

Your last post made me so think
I encourage you not to leave this Forum because this Forum look like haters Forum but this is only point of those people who do,nt like really truth..really Bible truth cause pain to those who are liers and reap off own members of true salvation of Bible
from my foreign point this Forum is Forum of TRUE JW not slaves of man doctrines controled strickly by man made laws of own churches or organizations like WTBS JW OR OTHERS
JUST WE ARE FREE IN CHRIST TRUE JEHOVA,nobody control us,nobody"blink smart elder eyes"against us,we are free of man bondage Gal 5;1..........our faith slowly lead us to God and His WORD BIBLE without of old bold man supervision "big spiritual sharks" those days are past away,today is new trend allowed only by God to find HIS TRUTH
Just I wish you to stay and take part using your wisdom and spirituality to be more humble and more knowledgable ,each one of us need to have this christian freedom and you to?

Hi TPMP,

Both of them should have been removed as elders, if in fact your story is revealing all of the facts.

Many do have personality conflicts and disagreements at times, but what you describe should have been dealt with by the circuit overseer.

I agree. I was wondering that at the time myself. The brother who told us was the elder who my wife and i were studying with for a while before we stopped. I have no idea what happened after that. We stopped attending shortly after that.

All i know, is that one of the brothers left the congo.

However, You do make a valid point. The congo's i attended growing up. One would have never heard of such a thing. It would have been handled swiftly.

Then again, times are diffrent. Who knows?

I work as a dating coach, and deal with this subject on a daily basis. I really feel that being outgoing and happy are traits that men need to focus on in order to make the most out of their personal and dating lives. I like the information that you have presented here, and think that it will be helpful to men trying to increase their confidence and self-esteem. I wrote a little bit about the same topic on my blog at http://www.online-dating-mastery.com/... if you'd like to check it out.

I don't believe this Juan story though. I'm sure Richard Leib's the recounting of his conversation with Juan individual didn't quite go like that. That is not quite witness talk., not in that context.... Close, but not quite.
The rest of the story was on point though.
TPMP 35
Having been in sales all my life - these are truly ''stories'' to try and entice more followers. These big cult like organized religions feed off of curious,''lost'' people seeking a path, salvation, the meaning of life - bla, bla, bla... Any religion that bans things like dancing, Santa, Easter Bunny, fairy tales, and on & on is a bunch of malarky!!! They're nut jobs!!!

Daily Horoscope for June 2

Cancer

You have a tendency to go overboard today Cancer, whether it's eating too much food, drinking too much or taking on more than you can handle at work. You simply won't know when to stop! You're in a very sociable mood and you're also feeling very easy-going, prepared to take people at face value and to turn a blind eye to their faults and foibles. And you hope they'll do the same for you.
