no mention whatsoever that it was watchtower themselves that strongly hinted towards this date.
instead they blame those who "put their trust in a date, not jehovah".. let's recap... .
Instead they blame those who "put their trust in a date, not Jehovah".
What a nerve, yet another double meaning. Today if I were to say that the end will not come within the next 10 years, I will almost get my head biten off by my JW family for not being spiritual enough, because we all know that the end is so near now.
“there may be occasions when it would be good for us to reconsider a choice or decision.
it could be when the prevailing circumstances change.
jehovah altered his decision at times when circumstances changed.
Only in the WT, can the words say one thing while the opposite is what JWs believe. Been a few of these in the watchtowers over the last month or so, 1: Unlike Christendom, we don't have human leaders because we follow the GB. 2: We dont take money by passing the plate around at meetings, like Christendom do, but please make sure you contribute your monthly donations.
there is alot if press here in australua on the royal commission about child abuse in the jw faith.
however that is just one type of abuse, abuse can be physical or mental, we tend to forget about the various types of mental abuse in the jw faith.
my story is not unique and apologies for grammar etc.. my father and mother emigrated to perth australia many decades ago when i was very young.
Your opening post is so true. We all welcome you here.

i saw the recent video that the borg put out about the trial in russia and how pleased the russian brothers were that a member of the gibbering booty, brother sanders, came to support them for six days.
well, there was a one-day delay in the trial which enabled the russian witnesses to have the memorial in their kingdom halls.
well, brother sanders was very quick to point out that it was very evident that jehovah intervened to enable the brothers to celebrate the memorial.
Here is another tread about that broadcast:
assignation helper is free application developed to make assignments for our christian life and ministry meeting quickly and easily.
it's a very nice tool!
the website is: assignation-helper.com.
I would have used that were it available and the elders would have quickly warned me of the dangers of doing such. Today, no big deal
It wasn't that many years ago that doing anything on line with computers, that involved anything regarding the words watchtower or Jehovah, was a very serious sin.
what is the rarest jb book ever printed?
i just bought a copy of the finished mystery and it can be a bit rare.
but i bet there are others much more rare.
Skin, you mentioned a time when congs were told to get rid of the old literature. When exactly did that happen? A jw friend told me about this and how his cong literally burned the old stuff.
Hi Joey jojo. This is how it happened here this area (New Zealand). It would be about 5 years ago now, we had a letter read out to the congregation from the Branch office (Australia). They requested that all the old books (in the KH library or our personal collections) be sent over to the Branch because they needed them for the JW museum that they were putting together. Our extensive KH library disappeared, and so did another KH library that I know of. There was also a rumor going around at the time, that because of the cost to post these books over to Aus, the instruction was then to destroy them.
in this article on newsweek:.

catholics are concerned about their religion being discriminated as well in russia.
Being politically neutral? All the letters that WT leaders asked their followers to write to Russia, is a form of trying to manipulate the out come of that political event.

Before the WT leaders asked for all the old WT books to be removed from the KH libraries, our KH had a very good stock of rare and early IBSA books, now these are all gone. Sad that they don't value our rich spiritual heritage.

i do not hope it is all too bad translation, based on google translate)___________________.
the governing body has put out a video on jw broadcasting regarding there view on the events in russia.
Well reported. I too have only listened to that video and was shocked by the amount of WT promotional propaganda that report contained. Whatever happened or is going to happen in Russia is made to look positive in these broadcasts. Made to look like its Jehovahs will. And why are they appealing against this out come, obviously Jehovah has allowed this result, would not appealing against this decision be a form of actively going against what Jehovah has allowed to take place?
