on january 13th, 2018, an emergency warning appeared on phone screens across hawaii, alerting everyone: .
ballistic missile threat inbound to hawaii.
seek immediate shelter.
Throughout the chain of commands in any country no chain of people is nuts enough to believe that anyone would ever attack first.
I don't recall any chain of command to use nuclear weapons for the U.S.A. I believe they have in fact reserved the right to use nuclear weapons first in any conflicts where they deem that necessary.
The nuclear "football" and the ability to use these weapons have been fully placed in the hands of Donald Trump at his sole discretion
the watchtower—study edition | august 2020. study article 32. walk humbly and modestly with your god.
jesus is depicted in the heavens.
next to him stand some of his co-rulers.
It looks like even the women anointed get to have a beard when they are in heaven. Neatly trimmed and curled no doubt

Interesting to see how a worldwide campaign could be handled so yes please
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/aug/10/former-jehovahs-witness-elders-call-for-mandatory-reporting-of-child-sexual-abuse?fbclid=iwar13k3rzferkzvjj5lbxegzhjr1dkfw34gqchgms4gdmhjufcv24hpzjcco.
two former jehovah’s witness elders have called for mandatory reporting of child sexual abuse, saying the organisation believes it is “answerable only to god”.. duncan corbett, who was an elder for 18 years, told the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse that the protection of minors and the handling of abuse claims must be taken out of the church’s hands.
“let them deal with the sin and the authorities handle the crime,” he told a hearing in london.. lloyd evans, another former elder who now campaigns against religious fundamentalism, said: “this is a group that feels they are answerable only to god … they don’t feel as though they need to yield to any regulations that are imposed on them.”.
It doesn't seem like the UK inquiry into child sexual abuse is quite as focused and determined to promote real change to WT policies that allow this situation to exist. It might just end at the fact finding level. I hope I am wrong and they will be able to somehow hold the WT to account for their deeply flawed policies. The Australian Royal Commission seemed to be more aggressive than them and even they are having a very hard time to effect any real change to the WT so far
a few weeks ago; a witness couple from the midwest reached out to me after 25+ years.
they said they were doing a letter writing campaign and decided to reach out to me… they called on my personal cell phone, which was a little surprising.
a few days ago, a couple that i knew from over 40 years ago, sent me a text, again to my personal cell phone.. i assume that they just googled my name to get the personal info.
The June WT being studied at the August 3-30 meetings has two articles encouraging the rounding up of the "strays" and walkaways.The full congregation,not just Elders are encouraged to take part in this. Relatives are told to seek out inactive ones in the family group also.
I am part of the second group. Although I parted company with the WT in 1982 (inactive status) I fully expect some of my extended WT family to irritate me this month also in a futile attempt to "reactivate me" It is annoying but I am sure it won't last for long.

Yes Please to Me
does the information about mandatory donations in this post sound accurate to you?.

It seems a little suspicious since it is coming from a new poster who signed up just to give us this information. I would be a lot more comfortable with a long time,well known poster doing this. The same applies to this site.
someone has stepped forward to assist us.
that sure didn't take very long!.
