Would the GB have the guts for a "Coal Test"?

    I wonder with all the problems of a fiscal nature that are besetting the WTB$ if the G.B would have the courage to call for a test like Booze Ratherfrauds "Coal Test",where he said that if they couldn't get any then Jehovah didn't want them back in Brooklyn.

    Surely the Almighty God who owns everything in the Universe could show his support for them in the 21st. centuary by sending them a few tons of cash,like Da Judge got his coal?

    They don't ''NEED'' the cash, they just ''WANT'' it - in my very humble opinion.

    I ain't so certain Middie,

    They are asset rich,but cash flow could soon be a BIG problem.

    Hmmm - I see your point. The WTBTS may have the assets, but doesn't want to 'pay for itself'? (let's face it - with the 'end so near - yet again - they could take the view that Jehovah provided for them by amounting assets knowing they'd be needed at a future date?)

    As a JW, I'd have been gobsmacked to discover how much property the WT holds - yet current JWs (in my experience) believe they only own printing presses, which are necessary.

    It is quite astounding the ignorance of even quite clever JW's. An ex-Elder,still attending,who I respect as quite a clever guy in many ways,could not see through the Kingdom Hall Trust ownership arrangement that pertains in the U.K and elsewhere,believing that if a Congo. was disbanded the money from the sale of the KH would be distributed to congo. members! I asked him if he knew what Fat Chance meant.
