Governing Body - Time in Ministry
by Peeringin inis there any transparency in how many hours on the ministry the governing body members do on the ministry?
by this i mean the physical act of going door to door in their area.
i guess it is plausible that they would count overseas trips and working on publications as part of their ministry, but this is not what they encourage from the jw on the street.. is it possible for a gb member to be reproved or otherwise for not going out in service?

by Eve Deceived inonce we found out we were all witnesses, we all hugged.
now we just had to see if our kingdom hall was still standing.
when we came to the hall we had such a huge shock.. there were so many people there.

Well here's one Jehovah's Witness that was probably glad that the 'ancient worthies' hadn't arrived by 1920. Judge Rutherford would not have had his built in excuse to build a mansion in California if Abraham, Isaac and Jacob came that early. And besides, they no doubt would not have allowed him to waste Jehovah's money in such an extravagant way.

It was exciting times in Pastor Russell's day...and then he died.
It was exciting times in Judge Rutherford's day...and then he died.
It was exciting times in Nathan Knorr's day...and then he died.
It was exciting times in Fred Franz's day...and then he died.
It is exciting times in Steve Pare's day...and soon he too will die.
Every human that has ever prophesied about or looked forward to paradise, nirvana, 7th heaven, utopia, ouranos, Valhalla or Elysium has died. Each of us posting here will die. No one gets out alive!

Were You A Gullible JW?
by minimus ini think every congregation has their group that sees everything as a sign that they are god’s chosen people.
if a witness didn’t go to a meeting and a storm came and destroyed their house and killed them, and only the kingdom hall was saved, that was a sign that we should be in jehovah’s house.
if russia persecuted jws , it’s proof we are living in the last days.

"They were forced to get baptized by their parents. They were in the cult but were never gullible." - minimus
This describes me "to a T". Even as a young boy I knew that the Bible and the theology of Jehovah's Witnesses just did not make sense. But I 'played the game' in order to survive. I played it so well that there was talk of making me an Elder at 18 years old back in the early '70s and with my Bethel application was included a letter from the Circuit Overseer and the Body of Elders stating that I should be considered for the position of Circuit Overseer after my 4 years was up at Bethel. Such is the long, twisted, complicated and rocky road that we all travel in order to survive and get by in life.
