Friends,
The Dutch branch of the Society, has send a letter to all congregations in the Netherlands about the DC this summer.
They stated that the series of DC in 2006 has end in a loss of 75.000 euro. Main reason was the rental of the big video screens
above the platform and a shortage of donations.
They read the letter at the meeting last Thursday when I was present at the meeting.
a rumor alert indeed, but it could be related to the distribution of kingdom news no.37, "false religions end is near.".
the following is posted from e-watchman's forum.. make of it what you will, but in light of all the rhetoric about "deliverance at hand" and "independent thinking", nothing would surprise me anymore.. http://e-jehovahs-witnesses.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=1502&st=0 we posted about an announcement it was only local to our cong.
however we have found out that there is going to be an announcement sometime in september and it is supposed to be shocking.
This rumour was told in our Kingdom Hall in the Netherlands in may!
The end is coming this year, and the elders already know, was told us here in the Amsterdam region.
when the society came out in 1966 with the info that 6000 years of man's existence would come to an end by 1975, i thought it was a crock.
for 9 long years, all jws did was speculate about "when" the great tribulation was going to begin.
i always thought of jesus' words about "nobody knowing the day or the hour"----yet jehovah's witnesses figured it out?
I did, untill the doctrine-change in 1995 about "this generation..." I was 24 years old then.
My ultimate feeling about "the end is coming" was when the "Revelation"-book was published, somewhere in 1988,
I was really thinking that the end would come very soon, I remember the resolution on the convention that year.

with two thirds of my sentence complete, i am almost ready for parole.. there was some unbelievable stuff said today - i think there must be some sort of hallucinogenic gas coming through the ac, because no one batted an eyelid over what was said from the platform.. as usual, i will highlight the main talks.. .
saturday.
"deliver us from the wicked one and from every sort of lawlessness" - matt 6:13, titus 2:14. .
Fire!
Fire!
Fire!

a couple of my favs:.
"loyal love, god is love, may god's love move us to love".
"...like bees that were molested, but we can ever beat them off...".
When we were in our younger days, we were singing in song 128:
Nasi-eaters instead of Nazirites

hi, am relatively new on here, so haven`t seen any postings about how much the society is worth, but would really be interested to know.
what i can`t understand is what they are doing stockpiling money, when they could give some to the poor bro`s in africa etc.
give to poor pioneers, and hard up ones in congregations.
Friends,

for me it was the isaiah books.
side question which book did you like the best?
The Daniel and Isajah book are the worsed! Example: the wooden table at the UN offices in The Hague were mentioned and explained in some bible text.
The Best: the book with the gold cover, happyness book.

mission to africa.
this pamphlet is printed and distributed by the watchtower.
however, many jehovah's witnesses have never seen this brochure.
I read the booklet in an earlyer stadium but:
This was really good! But where is aidafrique now? It is gone, i think.
A lost chance.
