  ***Red Alert for Memorial Avoiders***

  by The Fall Guy in

  david can't xsplane of the gibbering body is urging jw's to go out in field serve-us today to target their bible studies, return visits, and inactive jw's for a second time with the invitation to the annual rejection of christ - just in case they've "forgotten the date" or "lost their invitation.

  go to 1 minute 45 seconds for the marketing speech.. https://tv.jw.org/#en/mediaitems/webhomeslider/pub-jwb_201904_14_video.

  could the cult's hierarchy be fearing reduced attendances this year - especially of "interested ones"?.

  How Do They Chose Someone To Be A Member Of The Illustrious Governing Body?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower

  i'm mean were talking making someone a policy maker for the corporation that can have serious financial consequences.

  i'm sure intelligence is not high on the priority list for this noble office being they hate higher education and consider it a waste of time.. i'm sure they would thoroughly know the party line as any self respecting mind control would never choose an original thinker.

  i'm also sure a lot of ass kissing happens before one gets chosen as a ass wiping helper which seem to be a sort of initiation into governing body corporate politics and a sort of proving ground to show your determination protect the organization from the enemy be they what ever source.

  Oh year, I forgot one! You have to be a "spiritual man." It took me years to figure out what that meant. Doing all the JW tasks required, without complaining.

  Any ideas about what the ‘special’ talk is on Memorial Day?

  by Bubbles001 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the family are very excited because there’s a special interruption happening this friday which has supposedly only happened once before when rutherford announced jesus’ ruling in heaven.

  requires tuning into jw.org.

  meant to be this coming friday before the memorial.

  The lack of love within the org and the hypocrisy.

  My spouse read Crisis of Conscience. That was it. Once you learn TTATT, it was over for us.

  BEST DECISION WE EVER MADE!!!!

  Why do some JWs love seeing others get disfellowshipped?

  by Tameria2001 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i'm not sure how many in the organization is like this, but there some jws who love seeing others get disfellowshipped, and my father-in-law is one of those.

  he became a jw because he loved the idea of being the head of the household, and lording it over his family.

  as a jw he is very hypocritical, my husband would tell stories of how they would celebrate christmas until his mother-in-law called him on it.

  We were told by a family member that "your life will not go well as long as you don't have Jehovah in it (aka, the Watchtower)." He said it will a lot of glee in his voice. Like he was looking forward to watching us suffer. VERY disturbing behavior!

  Special Mercy Provided to Adulterous Husbands 'if' Elders

  by HiddenPimo in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so here is something else that helped me wake up -.

  the elders manual - shepherd the flock of god contains a special caveat for elders who have committed adultery some time ago (not sure how many years, 'some time ago' is, but probably based on a complex formula of donations and # of assembly parts given.).

  but basically, they can just get a talking to by 2 brothers and then they can keep on keeping on.

  Yes, when my husband saw this little jewel in the Elders book, it was just another confirmation that we made the right decision to leave this abusive cult.

  Do old time present day active JW`s genuinely believe in overlapping generations ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for the life of me i can not come to terms with old timers in the "truth" who could swallow this interpretation of scripture about an overlapping generation .. when jesus spoke about "this generation" .

  are their any real bible students among younger ones any more ?.

  here are 3 bible scriptures that confirm a generation is approximately 40- 50 years long give or take a few years .. 1. matt:1 :17 abraham born 2016-18 bc jesus born 2 bc approx.

  They don't need to know deep doctrine, it's a social club. A place for the misfits to fit in.

  Fantastic post! Thank you for posting all of the quotes. I agree, the GB should be held to a higher standard as the Rank and file and IT IS A BIG DEAL WHAT TOMO DID.
