So I heand from a DO that visited my cong last week that there are more changes coming that we have not heard about
this being said long after the reading of the recent letter
he used the old saying "you Haven't seen anything yet"
ppl were saying "what else could the possibly change?"
looks like the rumors floating around here may be true
anyone heard new speculations???
Right now is an AMAZING time to have money, the markets are low and rising, stock is cheap and rising, look at the economic stats for the last 100 years and this is all part of the pattern, this is the time to make money with money. We are the other side of the trough about to initiate a rise, all the smart people are buying everything, it is partly why the recovery is taking place.
I have economist associates and I guarantee the WT will be getting told the same thing. I have no doubt they are cutting back on printing and property right now to get access to maximum liquid assets, i.e. cash,that they can pile into the stock market as it is about to boom upwards ( over next ten years and beyond). We know they are heavily invested in the markets and you can currently even now, double your money every 4years, even if you invest with reduced risk. So what would you do if you were them? yeah, me too!
My point is, they have become predictable. over the last 4 years we have all spoke of them slowing down activity, selling up assets and even discussed them re-branding and becoming less religious and more corporate. They are doing all these things, so whatever their announcements may be, it will either....
OPTION 1: result in more religious activity.
OPTION 2: result in more financial savings.
I predict option 2 but they will outright lie and claim it illogically will lead to option 1 as a result. Why? Because every decision they have made for a decade now has been exactly that way, from cancelling RBC teams to selling branches worldwide and making literature half the size and only half as often.
School for Christian Couples = Free Circuit Overseers
More hype to keep the r&f distracted from 100 year anniversary
How about reducing the Regional (District) Convention to 2 days instead of 3.
Is this thread a ploy to keep us coming back to JWN on a regular basis?
I think we look forward to new light more than the JWs do!

Yawn!
It's all to create the illusion of motion.
separation - School for Christian Couples = Free Circuit Overseers. I never thought of that. but now that you say it, it makes so much sense
acluetofindtheuser - How about reducing the Regional (District) Convention to 2 days instead of 3. I was just talking about this today. It would seem to pair up nicely with the elimination of 2 day circuit assemblies. after all, how is a 2 day regional convention any different from a 2 day circuit assembly? answer: there are no more 2 day circuit assemblies.
i honestly believe the next big doctrinal change is the 144,000 becoming symbolic. it just HAS to happen!
that and blood transfusions being a conscience decision but donation still not allowed. I know it makes no sense but look who were talking about ...
The biggest change I heard is going to be the loving provision of cushions on kingdom hall seats. Be happy because comfort for one's end is very near, just around the corner, imminent with not much time remaining, blah, blah.
I hear, though, that every tenth cushion will be a whoopsie cushion! Yes, it will keep the suspension during meetings running high and keep you frivilous attendees guessing when will you have the thrill of sitting on the big noisy one. These cushions fit right in to the dumbed down mentality of the current organisation and show that the focus remains appropriately on the new light on the end - that is, the rear end .
