  The '' other and remaining '' Faithful and Discreet Slaves are '' useless ''

  faithful and discreet slave parable.

  matthew 24:45-47 "who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?

  happy is that slave if his master on arriving finds him doing so.

  Another congregation bites the dust

  by NikL in

  went to the meeting last night with my believing wife.

  the co was visiting and delivered a really cult-ish talk on loyalty but that's another story.. they made the announcement that starting january 1st they were going to have only 3 congregations in this town instead of 4.. they are dissolving one and growing the territories of the remaining 3. the reason given is that many of the elders are getting up there in age and can't do what they used to do.

  basically not enough elders and ministerial servants...or even men reaching out for that matter.

  Nope. 4 Congregations share one of those 2 KH complexes they were building all over the place 10-15 years ago.

  so--really all thats happened is 3 sets of meetings each week instead of 4. same number of bums on seats each week.

  maybe more men leave the cult when they lose interest in their cult crazy wives.

  back in the day--mid 60's..it was a case of anything goes except penetrative sexual intercourse---between courting couples.

  i got married at 20..wife was 19. both pioneers. part of our honeymoon was at a district assembly--sheffield UK football stadium--july 1970. there was a serious talk about toying with sexual immorality. red faces time.

  Assembly day Cleveland Ohio (Willoughby ass. Hall) results

  1300 attendance 11 teenagers baptised (.85 growth) $12,000 expenses.

  biggest facepalm moment- teenage pioneer says she pioneers because "the overlapping generation is getting up there in years ,so time is short" as the saying goes "those that don't know history are doomed to repeat it".

  very mind numbing day nothing you haven't heard a hundred times before..
