Good question, particularly if you list the beliefs of the WTS in 1919 when chosen by Himself and those now. They would be disfellowshipped today for what Jesus approved back then.

Writing bad checks on Jehovah's account: the Governing Body
by Terry inthe mouthpiece of jehovah speaks in his name with authority.
the governing body is the only channel of communication with the supreme being.
they identify themselves as the faithful and discreet slave.. if they are faithful, why do they write checks that bounce using jehovah's checking account?

Wow! Very good piece, thank you. I think you hit a lot of nails on their heads with that! You should follow through and get it published. There's common human interest here, it's beyond JW.

i got there in the spring of 1999. i was in nyc on business and had dinner with a bethelite friend, i asked him who was the society having trouble with from an apostasy standpoint and he said "randy watters at bethel ministries".
so when i got back to oregon i looked him up on the 'net and found free minds.

I remember I was about the 250,000 visitor and now the counter is approaching 1.3 million. Thank you, Randy, for your work, it sure has made a difference! Glen

NGW, I did PM you back but I can never tell if it "happens" or not. Anyway, I'll try again from home and see how that goes! Glen

Were You Ever Really "On The Watch"?
by minimus injws are told to always be on the watch.
always be ready.
be alert in the "time of the end".

Yes. I was. I conjured up all kind of things to "prove" these were the end times. Like the Berlin Wall coming down meant Jehovah was opening up the communist world to the Truth. That Islam would get turned on as proof of false religion biting it. Ridiculous circular reasoning. I was a very silly man.
