@OUTLAW:
Is the WBT$ "Be Happy@ Bethel" Music Video "DESTINED" for the Pharrell Williams/United Nations Promotion?!
Only "Joe Bethelite" would know.

if these people werent in this basement, would they be killed?
all them years of studying and being loyal, and its come to this.......being scared in a basement....all bad !
@Finkelstein: The fear mongering continues on because the leaders of this organization know it works, not only to allure people but to influence people to sustain the organization. With no money and no power this organization would have never developed and grown as it did
Sounds like Fox News.
at the meeting today several elders commented about the wonderful program that they attended yesterday on the new kingdom hall designs.
they said that the new halls are going to be so beautiful with lots of windows and glass panels and that the lights will be kept on in the lobby 24/7 so that you can see into the hall at night and that thousands of these halls must be built.
then five minutes later they are talking about how close the end is and that we will be meeting in basements in the near future.

"we may get instructions that don't make sense or they may defy logic, but we must be obedient to the faithful slave if we want to survive.".
all i could think about was that these were the same kind of people that would have gulped down the kool aid at jonestown without hesitation.. pardon the language, but what the actual f**k?
even when i wasn't a doubter and bought in to the organization, it was always with a view to what was in line with scripture.
Cold Steel: "Up until now, no one in the slave class has seen a verifiable angel or received any sort of revelation; however, it sounds as though they're expecting it."
I don't think they believe in their own BS. There's something more sinister going on. What it is, is anyone's guess. Milking the flock one last time before flying to some resort with a luxury mansion? Who knows?
Broke Watchtower, that's a good line. Anyone who uses it will get it from the elders though.

do you think it is possible that the g.b.is deliberately giving out mis-information to confuse either apostates or media that might be investigating them for one reason or another ?
speak out of both corners of their mouth .
and the reason they do so ?
OnTheWayOut: "There are times when their changes back and forth don't seem to make sense: Will the men of Sodom be resurrected?"
I think I may know the reason why. The scripture is clear that they will be resurrected (but not in the JW sense) so the literal reading of it is their default.
However, what happens to your John Doe publisher if they actually believe the Sodomites are to be resurrected (To their paradise). He will simply wake up one Saturday morning and reason to himself "Why should I go out in field service when the Sodomites are to be resurrected? If they are to be resurrected then Armageddon should not have any deaths and/or those who die in it should be worthy of a resurrection. After all aren't the Sodomites as bad as they come? If so then anyone could be resurrected.
Then John Doe publisher goes back to sleep because his work has no meaningful urgency.
The Watchtower may be aware of such thinking, probably through letters written to them, and has to change their position again to the "no resurrection for Sodomites" position. But when they do that they come up full circle with the plain and uninterpretable statement of Jesus in Matthew 11:24: "But I tell you that it will be more bearable for Sodom on the day of judgment than for you." - NIV
So they go full circle over and over.
Please tell me that makes no sense!

runForever: "It is going to be really funny to see when they actually announce the tribulation or attack on God's people or something which they eventually will have to."
They'll never announce the Great Tribulation. First of all, the UN will never make any "peace and security" announcement. Secondly, Babylon the Great - Christendom and company - will never be attacked by any government forces. Third, no one's going to come out to get the Witnesses like they expect them to.
