a member at the german board http://www.infolink-forum.de reported that a jw pioneer couple in austria was invited in may 2003 to move to greece because several members of the greek branch office have been dismissed and/or disfellowshipped.

this couple declined and now jw from other countries are to run the greek branch office.

can anybody confirm this and explain what has happened?

Do they still give the higer rank elders at Bethel Luxury Cars?

by Dan76 in

i grew up in nyc.

my book study conductor was one of the more senior elders in his department.

i used to remember that bethel always gave him (or at least loaned him for ministerial use) a real nice, tricked out, brand new lexus.

newbie from Canada

first i would like to thank you all for your courage to tell the truth about " the truth" and watchtower, and by helping ones like my family get so much information about witnesses.. just a quick introduction: we came to canada from yugoslavia 12 years ago and two years after we were baptized as a jws.

because of that , our relatives in canada shunned us for betraying ortodox faith .

now 10 years later we are shunned by our jw "friends" even thou we are not disfellowshiped nor did we disassociated ourselves.after reading information on this board about un, paedophilia and inhumane treatment of many who just did not agree with some practices, we just couldn`t go to meetings anymore.

Ray Franz and 1975

by izobcenec in

jw
friends

did ray franz believe that end would come in 1975...i am asking that because my jw friend said, that he listened to his talk few years before 1975 and that ray was very clear about 1975...my jw friend is blaming ray and those who were d/f in 1980 for 1975 fiasco and because they were d/f, he doesnt see any problem with 1975...thanx for your comments

izobcenec

Hamas: this JW was very specific about Ray Franz's talk at Munich international assembly in Germany in 1973, where he (my JW friend) was present...he said that Ray was talking about 1975 very clearly and that all present understood, that the end will come in 1975.
