Which delusion will you choose?
by JW_Rogue init occurred to me while at today's wt study that over 100 people were wasting an hour of their life studiously examining the differences between two delusions, paradise earth and the heavenly hope.
everyone made it sound so serious when in reality it means nothing at all.
either choice is wrong and foolish nonsense.. it was mentioned that mark sanderson found his heavenly calling at very young age.

The funniest part of this week's lesson, to me, is that they stress that it is none of our business if someone partakes or not, it is between them and God. However next week, when addressing the rising number of partakers, the faithful slave says don't worry about it, most of those partakers are NOT anointed, but have mental or emotional problems. So much for being between the individual and God. -

Chaos at Brooklyn Bethel 12/2016
by James Jack inthis was how it was described to me yesterday by a brother who has been there for some 40 years.
"everyone is about gone; the governing body is set to leave within 2 months; the kitchen and laundry personnel are gone and i have to fend for myself now.".
"also the aggravation of 4 to 5 business men in suits with clipboards daily checking out the watchtower properties.

Despite a 'number' of similar projects being pulled, the Chelmsford Project will continue...
by NeverKnew inthis article suggests that there are projects being halted, but chelmsford isn't one of them.
can someone from the uk tell me if this article was written by a reputable and known publisher?
plans for huge jehovah's witnesses hq continues.

My understanding is they are going to finish the building that was already started at the site, once that ONE building is complete, the rest of the project will be put on hold until after Warwick. -

fukitol- I'm sorry for not typing out the updated understanding of Ezekiel's prophecy, but to tell you the truth it was all convoluted that it is difficult to type short easy to understand sentences while your uber witness family is watching you like a hawk.
The annual meeting should be online this week to watch it your self.
Bottom line, everything in the letter was confirmed, and I released the year text as soon as they announced it. The updated understandings in Ezekiel really don't add up to a hill of beans.

a translation attempt is as follows:.

In Us the monthly stipend is around $900 per couple. Plus they are on the borg's health insurance. Healthcare cost is real reason for the downsize, it will mostly be couples in their 50's and older who will be released from bethels and SP. A couple who graduated two years ago from Couples school has already been released from program due to their age. The brother was pissed!!! He told me they know how old he was when they accepted him.
NO love amongst themselves, they only want the money!
