How many JWs today know that the official WT teachings prior to 1928, had the last days beginning in 1799, and that the heavenly kingdom was established heaven in 1874 and Christ was given rulership of that kingdom in 1878? Very few, if any, they now associate all those events to have taken place in 1914 and that they always knew that in the years leading up to 1914.

7Can a Church Lie Intentionally? Yes.
by peacefulpete ina very recent case i mentioned briefly in another thread might be of interest to many here.
a mormon found through the internet that her church leadership had deliberately misled members regarding the origin of the book of mormon and engaged in historical revisioning.
she sued for damages for the lifelong tithing she had been deceived into giving.

it’s all in person and only fully vaxed can go
by Indoubtbigtime in2023 will see a big push to get rank and file back to in person meetings and ministry.
they have opened a can of worms with zoom but what they really want is only in extreme illnesses cases can someone use zoom .
the only problem is they want everyone fully vaccinated which means if you didn’t go for your latest booster in the last several months then you are no longer fully vaccinated and just the same as someone who never accepted any shots right from the start.

C of E Abuse Report. Contrast with JW org !
by Phizzy innote this report covers cases going back to 1949, they uncovered 400. if j.w's in the u.k did a similar, thorough trawl of all congregation records going back that far, let's pretend they haven't destroyed most of them, we know they have, but just pretend they are all available, how many cases of abuse would they uncover ?
in a much smaller org ?.
maybe the file destruction that has gone on was to protect the org.

I was tempted into Google to see what C & E meant, it means Church of England. Didnt read any more because its bound to be apostate lies.

Looks like we will be getting the "Do not listen to Satans Media talk, they publish lies about jehovahs people, etc". How sad it would be if we were to believe in these lies and lose faith in God's organization.

Witnesses themselves are now discouraged from owning these other publication's. I was pressured to destroy my good sized library of books i had saved since the 80's by Witnesses.

I know witnesses who preached that the end is so close that any JW who has a retirement savings in place, then they don't have faith in Jehovah's promises, and that the end will clearly happen within 10 years. That was 30 years ago now. Out of those ones that are still alive, they now deny ever saying that, and you guessed it. They are still telling us the the end is so close.
