I am looking forward to seeing the next service report. Last year there was actually a slight decrease in publishers over the whole of Europe. So really hoping that will continue and spread to other continents.

Yes I guess the org realize that a talk recorded at Bethel, where they have complete control over it, is a lot better than some local elder who they dont know and who could add something they dont want in the talk.

So I presume the kingdom Hall is owned by the witnesses. In which case why would they have a flag raised in the Kingdom Hall grounds?

I remember in the 1970s my best friend and his girfriend wanted to marry because they were very much in love and didnt want to wait any longer. They were both about 20 years ago. The presiding elder then wouldnt allow them to get married at the Kingdom Hall, because he decided they were too young so they married at a registry office instead. This was in the UK.

Providing any slight increase comes mainly from the poor countries, it is a good thing in my book. Certainly that is the way things have been going lately. Also of course, access to the internet is more widespread in rich countries for obvious reasons. Last year if you take the whole of Europe there was a decrease in average publishers. That is great news, along with many other countries that had little or no growth.

Another lie. This time from the UK Branch

Thanks darksilver for your comments and observations. It maybe that when Andre Schofield made his comment about 60 years in London, he was just thinking about 60 Years in Mill Hill. But certainly the major lie there was about the increased demand for bible literature being the reason they are moving.
Actually I think most JWs would know that at least in the uk, there certainly is less demand now for literature, as so much of it now comes electronically.

10 Graphs that show that the Watchtower is in trouble in Mexico
by ILoveTTATT2 inmexico is by far the country where the witnesses have had the most success in the entire world.
almost any statistic except the total amount of witnesses shows that mexico is where the witnesses have had the wildest success in the world.proportional to population, the witnesses in mexico are double, or nearly triple, what they are in the us or brazil.but there is "trouble in paradise".
if mexico falls, pretty much the whole watchtower falls.which is why it is so important to have jwfacts translated to spanish.i made an analysis and things are looking bad in mexico... if trends continue, mexico will become just like the 1st-world countries.here is the first graph:maximum publisher % increase:.

Yes thanks for the graphs. Very interesting. Last year I tabled all the countries making up Europe, and for the first time ever there was a decrease across the whole of the continent.

Andrew Schofield, a spokesman for Jehovah’s Witnesses in Britain, states: “For almost 60 years, our administrative operations for Britain have been located in London. However, larger facilities became necessary due to the increased demand for Bible-related literature and materials. We began site preparation on the 34-hectare (approx. 85 a.) property in April 2015 and expect to complete construction by the end of 2019.”
What a joke. they have sent bethel boys home, they have cut way back on printing, and their increase in Uk was 26 last year.

As a JW how would you answer this if someone brought it up in the ministry?
by NikL inas a jw i pretty much just went along with what was taught from the platform i didn't do any real bible study.
as a result, now that i am out of the org.
i find scriptures that blow my mind.. i am not sure how i would have reacted if someone had pointed this out to me when i was a jw but now i can't believe i've never noticed this before.

I think the eternal father is nothing to argue about. Once a person becomes a father, he is that until is dying day. So Jesus therefor is an eternal father as he is now living for ever.
