  Did the Governing Body sucessfully fend off this bad news on thier TV Broadcast??

  by Wasanelder Once in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  remember there was a talk about not listening to "false stories" about sexual abuse from apostates on jw's fantasy station?

  did the governing body put it out there as preemptive damage control because they knew this was coming?

  they must have had subpoenas giving them a heads up.

  Doncha know it's ......PERSECUTION!!!!

  Only the thinkers with thick skin will leave. So many of them have the need to be told what to do and when to do it. Those are the ones that will stay. Then there are the ones who have to stay in for family (I feel for those ones). It has to be brutal for these who have no choice but to stay in or they will loose everything. I think of those ones often (some on this forum). Hang in there and hope for the best. Hopefully all the current events will shake a few.

  I wonder if "Brothers" own the dealerships when they purchase the new vehicles? The "circle" of profit!

  Grandchildren pay for the sins of their parents.

  2. beliefs

  my wife's mother just related to us an interview she heard during the recent three day convention that she just had to share with us.

  a brother and his wife have, for over 20 years, shunned their daughter because she ran off and eloped with a worldly guy.

  while openly sobbing, he related how difficult it has been to shun his daughter and avoid unnecessary contact with her and her family.

  Sail Away. They or the Congregation will contact you when they can no longer take care or afford to take care of them. Then all of a sudden you will be needed. Funny how that happens!

  I know it must hurt but it is their loss.

  The JW persecution defense has begun! Just Amazing!

  JW.org Under Attack by Gog of Magog!

  First Russia bans our website and now Headlines around the world are looking like the one below:

  When answering the question of his disciples concerning the sign of his presence and the conclusion of the system of things, Jesus mentioned a “great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again.” (Mt 24:3, 21)

  Consider the concluding words to Jesus’ great prophecy as recorded by Mark: “Keep on the watch, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming, whether late in the day or at midnight or at cockcrowing or early in the morning; in order that when he arrives suddenly, he does not find you sleeping. But what I say to you I say to all, Keep on the watch.”—Mark 13:35-37.

  I know how you feel Gorby. So many have given so much to something the believed in. I had a Faithful Sister (still in) tell us this weekend that she always tried her best (pioneered for years) and now she feels dismissed and unimportant. She really was a good example in the congregation. She always helped others and was loving and supportive. She is scratching her head as to what is going on in this organization. So sad!

  Maybe all that is currently happening is the straw that broke the camels back. The org may not go away but it sure is taking a hit.

  My hope is the residents of the City of Warwick and the communities surrounding the new World wide headquarters. Will start to question all the "tax exemptions" given to the Watchtower. When the leaders of the Watchtower organization have such a terrible past handling and hiding sex abuse cases.

  Residents of the City of Warwick, ask yourself. What else are they hiding? Should they keep their tax exempt status? Let the WT pay it forward and help your community with your school taxes!

  Dragging Jehovah's name trough the mud!

  by truthseekeriam in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  listening to the first survivor testify to the australian royal commission really brought back some feelings i had put aside.. the feelings of guilt you feel for doing the right thing is extremely hard even when you know it's illogical it doesn't stop the abuse you do to yourself with these toxic thoughts of "dragging jehovah's name through the mud" i guess it doesn't help that you have the elders freaking out saying "reproach, reproach...this is bad!!

  it took quite awhile for me to come to terms with how completely ridicules it is to think jehovah would want this hidden.

  the truth is the religion wants it hidden and they are perfectly fine with destroying lives along the way!!

  Bringing reproach upon Jehovahs name translates to "Please don't tell anyone this is happening, it may affect our cash flow."
