    The Didaché: the most ancient ecclesiastical constitution
    5. However he will have to stop one alone day; if there was also there need of a second; but if he stopped
    three days, he is a false prophet.
    6. departing, then, the apostle doesn't take for itself nothing if not the bread (enough) up to the place where
    he will lodge; if he asks money instead, he is a false prophet.

    i agree with wobble

    what is the point of accruing cash if
    the BIG A is soooooo IMMINENT??
    surely, the door to the ark must be
    closed by now if the imminence is
    so assured....

    money makes the world go around!!!

    These booklets tell jws how to donate and invest through the WTS nonprofit corporation that will make it a tax break for the donator/investor.

    So there is a financial advantage to the one donating. It is not just a straight shot giving of money to the WTS.

    Ah ahhh..... this explains a lot for me.... I had noticed that a few of the 'leading' families of JW's in the cong where I live all drove nice cars, owned a few investment properties, businesses (accountants and tax consultants), and all seemed to be "living the life" of comfort and luxury-so to speak- so remaining a JW is not only good for business and keeping up appearences, but it's now $$$ profitable as well.

    Personally I'd rather stay poor!

    Dont recall Jesus having a porche for a donkey/ass.

    Modest and humble come to mind when i think of Jesus.
