One must remember, these Governments are SATAN'S tools.
Yes, and dont forget to remain loyal to jehovah's organization, you dont want to loose out on your reward. Jehovah's enemies will try anything to rob you of that reward. So please brothers, remain loyal in the face opposition.
i’m sure we all remember those really weird, awkward magazines we were expected to place in service.
and it was before we are had the website or the thing on the back to fall back on.
imagine being a 12 year old girl, and having to place magazines on god’s view of pornography, sex, homosexuality.
I remember being on the TMS and given a talk slip on those subjects. Had to make those talks last 5 minutes back then. Thanks WT, that sped up my decision to ask to be removed from the TMS. I dont miss it one bit.
this has been mentioned in passing but it seems to deserve its own thread.. this year at the rc, no releases.
instead they wait to drop them at the annual meeting which isnt a even simulcast event.
what is their thinking?
Looks like there are 2 new release's:
At the annual meeting of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania on October 6, 2018, two new publications were released. The book Pure Worship of Jehovah—Restored At Last! is based on the prophecy of Ezekiel, and the brochure Apply Yourself to Reading and Teaching is designed to help Jehovah’s Witnesses improve their reading and teaching skills.
The Pure Worship book in English and the Teaching brochure in several languages are now available on the jw.org website and in the JW Library app. At a later time, the Pure Worship book will be released in additional languages.
It was also announced at the annual meeting that the Governing Body has approved a significant revision of our websites and applications. The jw.org website will be redesigned to include the content and features of JW Broadcasting and Watchtower ONLINE LIBRARY. Additionally, the JW Library app will be redesigned to incorporate the content and features of Watchtower Library as well as content that now appears only on the jw.org website. The overall appearance of the new website and the new app will be unified and become even more user-friendly. For example, to ensure that the redesigned website and app are not too hard to navigate, key aspects will be simplified to help users find spiritual food quickly. Planning and design work have already begun on this large project. You should begin to see certain improvements within a few months.
this manipulative new caleb and sophia video has got me so angry!!.
the level of cultiness has just gone to a whole new level!.

When she was dreaming, she should have seen the answer in her dream, I did, and wrote that down. That's not cheating.
I'm thinking most kids watching this for see it simply as a cartoon, the bigger stuff going on here, is designed for the adults. WT writers know that adults of all ages will also be watching these cartoons.
sorry guys,.
the gorby satire fake report of the annual meeting with the coincidence about russia, is used for real in john cedars yt channel.. please concider it for well prepared satire.. and not much more.. g..
Well said Magnum....
on monday 22 october 2018, the prime minister of australia, the hon scott morrison mp, will deliver the national apology to victims and survivors of institutional child sexual abuse at parliament house in canberra.
this apology follows the individual apologies to child abuse victims and congregations by religious leaders and religious institutions across australia, with the exception of the governing body of jehovah’s witnesses who have refused to ‘say sorry’ to any victims or survivors of child sexual abuse or to acknowledge their suffering.. .
jehovah’s witness victims and survivors to attend the national apology ceremony.
What did last weeks WT say about following negative news stories? This should all go away if we ignore it.
the 2014/2015 international conventions have been announced, and will be held in the following cities.... melbourne, australia october 2014london, england august 2014quito, ecuador january 2015frankfurt, germany july 2014athens, greece june 2014seoul, korea september 2014mexico city, mexico november 2014harare, zimbabwe august 2014as always there is a long list of requirements for those wealthy enough to attend - including the requirement to keep your "exemplary status" right up to the day of departure or lose all your money.. there is also a curious paragraph that seems to indicate an element of subterfuge.... special rooming: confidentially, we will be asking the host branch office to poll local brothers to determine if some might be able to provide limited rooming provisions in private homes.
this information is not to be made known to the applicants in general.
however, if the elders are aware of a longtime, faithful servant, perhaps with many years of full-time service, who is not able to fully finance such a trip, he could be encouraged to apply and the secretary can check the box on the electronic jw.org application that this delegate qualifies for the special rooming provision, if available.. basically, watchtower is admitting that it is possible to attend an international convention even if you can't afford the hotel, but they don't want everyone to know because they want as many full-paying delegates as possible.. my article on this can be found on the link below.... http://jwsurvey.org/cedars-blog/watchtower-announces-new-international-conventions-while-downsizing-district-conventions-for-2014.
With the 2019 International conventions coming up, I think the most ever for one year. This will be a BIG money earner, invites have already been sent out. Our area, we are only allowed to attend one of two conventions, and they are the most distant two to get to from here. And who are the ones that get to go? mainly only the ones that havn't followed instructions and simplified their lives. Most witnesses struggle to earn enough money to even attend the local convention. Oh what a wonderful arrangement...

on the heels of a $35 million jury award to a woman who alleged the congregation mishandled her childhood abuse, other survivors say there's a pattern of cover-ups.

In response to questions from NBC News about what happened to Smith, Fairfield Kingdom Hall did not return a request for comment
And because they did not return a reply for comment, the media fill in the gaps as best has they can with the information available, and if the media report something incorrect, well what do you expect. They are controlled by Satan, so of course they are going to make up negative lies about Jehovah's people. Thus making this whole news item an unbelievable Satanic lie to the average JW.
1) throughout the whole article jw's were being told not to believe or pass on everything they hear, but to examine the information to prove whether it was true or not.. 2) throughout the whole article jw's were being told not to listen to or look into any information or challenges which sounded negative about the org.. mind-numbed jw's will be leaving their kh's today wondering, "do i try and prove to myself and others that that what has been said is definitely a lie, (1 timothy 4:1; 1 peter 3:15;1 john 4:1) or do i totally ignore it and believe everything the org tells me is true?
" (proverbs 14:15).
cult-training in full flow..
Yet not a whisper on JW.org about the 38 million dollar lawsuit that they lost last week.
Does makes you wonder if they timed this study to coincide with the out come of that lawsuit?.
As this study brought out "Don't believe the negative lies the media say about us...or you could lose your faith, how sad that would be".
i just saw an ad last night for this.
it will be televised in november on a&e..
Time to start watching A&E.
