... we just felt that you dear brothers and sisters needed to be made aware of these expenditures that were facing in the coming months and years.... .
the may broadcast was just to make the 'dear brothers and sisters aware' and not to ask for more money?.
lett, the lying, deceitful turd!.
"... So your children are buying ice cream with money that should be going to the worldwide work."

hi, i'm new here but hadn't seen this mentioned anywhere yet.
during the "imitate jesus" rc there was a strange moment where they played a video of a brother trying to explain the 1914 teaching.
the brother quickly goes through all the scriptural "proofs" and the householder is dumbfounded.
One elder whined, "I'll bet you think I'm stupid"
C;mon, man - I was holding a drink.

“… we just felt that you dear brothers and sisters needed to be made aware of these expenditures that we’re facing in the coming months and years…”
Tony Morris intervention:
... cause me and the boys sure as hell ain't going to be kicking in from our pensions! No sirree.
Why, I just don't know, you know. I look around, and I say to myself, You know, What would my big brother think?
Here we have the only clean and pure organization devoted to Jehovah's worship.
And, at the same time, we have people, who, mind you, claim to be, yes, they claim to be worshipers of the only true God, Jehovah God.
No, not everyone. No, we're not saying everyone.
It reminds me of a story told to me in a recent visit.
An experienced elder said to me, he said to me: "You know, Br. Morris. We're so happy with the forward movement of Jehovah's chariot. But, it doesn't seem that everyone in our congregation is fully aboard this chariot."
And I said to him: "Well, what do you mean?"
And he replied: "Well, it just doesn't feel that everyone has full confidence that Jehovah will provide. "Some in our congregation are working full-time jobs. Some are encouraging their children to not home-school. Some of the 'sisters' are reported to have obtained part-time jobs instead of pioneering. There are even reports (begins whispering) [Please step close - I don't want anyone else to hear], there are even reports that some of the congregation children have been wasting their allowance on ICE CREAM."
(Laughter from some in the audience.)
Ohh, you may think it's funny,
But, I don't.
Jehovah said that He could make the rocks cry out - but, no, he has allowed humans to cry out for Him.
So, what are we doing?
Are we saying - Oh Jehovah, I'm poor, I'm hungry, I need to work. I need a bit of a break. Can I not have some ice cream?
What do you want Jehovah to say?
this was going through my mind last night.. reviewing 2 key scriptures - james 1:27 - orphans and widows.
and micah 6:8 - what is god asking back?.
so, i start looking for this verse on www.biblehub.com, but every translation says "requires.".

Now, I know to some that this is trivializing, but this was an oft-quoted verse, and one of my top 10 verses in the Bible.
The blech edition (2013) of NWT has changed to "requires" (with footnote to the old)
Why would Freddy have used this wording?
james penton is he still alive?
my wife left me his book but i've not found anything else on him.
does he post somewhere?.
I always find it so amazing how quickly Dubs turn on their own.
Jim's first books had earned him national Dub accolades - and then, overnight, he became the first or second-worst apostate since Satan himself.
filed:.
letter dated june 22, 2015, notifying the court that petitioners, watchtower and fremont congregation have reached a settlement with respondent, conti.. .

Anyone here care to give us the rundown on the particulars of how much this case will set the WT back?
If it's a settlement, we'll only likely be able to guess.
I'm assuming that Zalkin did not blink.
Irrespective of the settlement, this means that the decision stands (unless they have made some extreme backroom deal - which would go totally against what Candace set out to accomplish).
if you could use a good laugh please have a look at page 7 of the july 2015 awake.
my wife leaves the latest issues on my pillow when she gets back from her meetings.

Okay, so you made me look this gem up.
At the bottom of the drawing is a quote from Isaiah 65;21,22
And the article's conclusion is to the left of the drawing.
"The Bible promises a time when all
people will be able to have a satisfying
measure of control over their life. They will
be able to live to their full potential, uninhibited
by frustrating circumstances,
daily pressures, and negative feelings.
(Isaiah 65:21, 22) The Bible refers to this
as “the real life.”—1 Timothy 6:19."
So that friends, is the concept of "the real life."

if you get in an accident you will not be shunned by everyone in your family.
Unless the accident involved your family. Like if you plowed into them and put them all in the hospital with serious injuries. You might get the cold shoulder for a while.

a witness friend wanted to meet up recently and talk.
since this person was a close friend and who i thought had a level head, i'd go ahead and speak with him.
our conversation actually helped me figure a few things out not only for myself but also about the witnesses.. so we're talking and i'm telling him my experience and the doctrines that i disagreed with as well as the scandals that made me disgusted with the organization.
