  The destruction of "Babylon the Great"

  by Sour Grapes in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i read the talk outline #49 for this summer's regional convention entitled "future events that will require courage-the destruction of babylon the great.".

  the jdubs live in a comic book world.

  babylon the great is all false religious organizations and she is destroyed by those she seeks to control.

  If you think JWs are big on Catholics as Babylon the Great, you want to hear how some Seventh Day Adventists talk.

  Does the younger generation have our work ethic?

  greetings, you hard workers:.

  i've had enough of speaking in generalities during my time as a jw evangelizer.

  while my own experience will offer up mere anecdotal examples at best, my contemporaries and i have found that kids today lack the earnestness and drive we older folks have had since youth: setting up a lemonade stand; doing yard work without power assist; mopping floors; running errands for a dime; cleaning parking lots, etc.

  hi all, anybody any anecdotal or actual idea of how attendance numbers went this year ?.

  there are hints that it is well down, but is it ?

  and if it is, will the borg stop crowing about the attendance as they always have ?.

  Ot was the lowest I’ve seen, about 80 or so. But they add phone links to attendance these days. I don’t know when they started doing that.

  The map of ex Jehovah's-Witnesses and their friends

  by Roxie in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am an ex-jw and a member of this forum (not so active lately ;)).

  in poland, we created a map of ex-jws (and their friends ;)) to find former friends from the organization or to contact someone living close to them.

  many people found each other after many years outside of the organization thanks to this tool.

  There was such a map on this forum around 15 years ago. I wonder if it still exists.

  There seemed to be more participants then, but none from Poland that I recall. It's funny how things change.

  Lloyd’s new book

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i see there has already been discussion over lloyd’s new book how to leave the jehovah's witnesses.

  this includes discussion around his personality, motives and financial gains.

  i have written a foreword for this book, because it is an important topic that has not been covered in such a complete format before.

  Well done to them for putting up with it. Maybe they think it's just a phase.

  Highlights from Leaked Bethel Videos - part 1, cleaning and picnic

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  atlantis recently leaked hours of videos recommended only for immature audiences, in this case bethelites, so i thought i'd share just a few highlights of things that stood out to me, along with some screenshots.. some minor renovation/cleaning was done at patterson, including white paneling in the auditorium and cleaning out the plant alcoves under the stairs, one of which was said to have a big spider cave..

  I knew there'd be explosive revelations in these leaks.

  New JWism in April broadcast?

  by AuntBee in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  does anyone know what it means to be "securely wrapped up in the bag of life"?

  is this a new special wt terminology?

  they said it or a slight variant of it, several times in the broadcast, perhaps 3?

  Looks like the 2013 Bible to me. Not sure why you get the idea it's an older one.

  I didn't know Lloyd is living with his in laws. And they are JW? How on earth does that work? He also posted an ill-judged video about his sister a few months ago. He took it down after a couple of days.

  His patreon income is public information apparently. The poor judgements over Facebook outings, Crisis of Conscience copying, vlogging about his sister, charging money to include people's stories in his book, were all public.
