When I sent that clip along with an actual pentecostal revival meeting, and asked what was the difference I got blocked.
It certainly does look and feel more like a Pentecostal revival than a Jehovah's Witness assembly (except for the music).
The music sounds more like a '90s talk show theme. Listen again, you'll see ๐
"Then he said "But things change, and like older teachings, we as Jehovah's people are refined and grow. Yes, even teachings that were wrong are now adjusted"
So how would your Dad feel if things like blood transfusions were "refined and adjusted" the day after he lost a loved one due to refusing blood? Things are a little different when they happen to YOU.
Frustrating as hell when dealing with these people.
"She'll never leave her social group and I don't want her to do that. Where else would she go? But she has cut the money off since realizing that they got BILLION$ from the sale of Brooklyn real estate. Yeah, MOM!"
We know several still ins that go to all JW events but don't donate a dime. They are strictly there to keep "friends" and family. I have actually had one tell me that he will NOT donate a dime so WT can pay to fight pedophile law suits.
LURKERS: IF WATCHTOWER IS HOLDING YOU HOSTAGE, BY FEAR OF LOOSING FAMILY. VOTE WITH YOUR WALLETS! HIT EM WHERE IT HURTS ($$$)!
You must understand that Jehovah is going thru a learning curve -- wink, wink.

I have to mention how much I agree with this, wholeheartedly. If you aren't giving Watchtower your money, and if you aren't actively trying to make converts, you are not helping Watchtower one bit.
I certainly understand people not wanting to give up family and their entire social structure by leaving, so they stay in only to maintain relationships, but they are out and non-supportive in ways that really count.
Itโs sick to think we canโt hold hands with our loved ones during a prayer. Bastards!!!
"Don't hold hands during the prayer"
"We don't control you"
