Don't they have to sign "vow of poverty" so the WBTS get charity status.Also aren't there some sort of documents ie qualifications,such as Doctor,Lawyer.Oh wait Lawyer would be qualified to sue.

a prominent bethel elder shared this information with another elder: there are some bethel workers who have been invited to leave bethel, but are refusing to do so and are taking the society to court while still residing in brooklyn.
if this is true, this could be the reason behind the sale of brooklyn property.

after 3 years of mental liberation for me, i feel that i am a fairly well rounded out person now.
very happy within myself.
my wife & i have had our ups & downs the past 3 years.
I am sorry to hear that.The way I see it these people are hard wired and the switch in on wbts.You can try all the programmes in the world but cannot change the outcome.You can talk til you are blue in the face about all the false doctrine of the wbts it will do no good.You have to change the hard wire.Let me know when you have rewired to poor soul.

Thanks,Blondie You hit them right on the head.
May I add to Q15 because this really gets my goat."individuals do not fully understand a certain position taken by the slave class" Look I do not understand your position when you say the generation that saw 1914 will NOT pass away before the end WILL come.I said this this was not a bible teaching 30 years ago.So why should I wait for 20 years for you to define a generation only to change your defination of a generation again.Not only that but in 2000 you said the end was near because the (so called annointed fds was getting old ) and some would still be on the Earth before the end would come.When I read that article I said they will have to change their tune in 10 years.No I do not have to wait for some slave class that does not know it's ass from a hole in the ground.
Than you have the gull to say "loyalty will move us to act humbly and wait on Jehovah to clarify matters" Do not give me that BS wait on Jehovah because I know and understand Jehovah's view point on things.It is you who don't understand Jehovah and the Bible that is why you are so wishy washy and have to correct your misunderstanding so often.

"if your speaking truthfully"..are you going to change,what you have to say?.....if your caught in a lie..are you going to change what you have to say?..............what is more likely,to need"new light?..
"the truth,or a lie?...............................outlaw
If you speak truth, you never ever ever have to change your story.But if you are the WBTS well that is another story and you have to always change your story.

city loses conventionwednesday, october 01, 2008 by lee roopand kay campbelltimes staff writers [email protected]@htimes.comparking dispute spurs jehovah's witnesses to move .
jehovah's witnesses will move their three summer meetings from huntsville to birmingham next year, ending for now a 12-year string of meetings that brought nearly $9 million a year in business to local hotels and restaurants.
a dispute over parking has ended the annual meetings, at least for 2009, as the city's largest single convention booking, bringing 6,000 people to town each of the three weekends.
So one city loses JW suckers is another city gain.What I don't understand is the WBTS/GB wants to rent a city facility for free.Yet the R&F must pay rent for their circuit assemblies and SAD days that are in their own paid for Assembly Kingdom Halls.

PS I know,just joking

(mark 4:26-29) let us now consider three more of jesus' illustrations-the mustard grain, the leaven, and the dragnet.
when the wts says "god's people" do they mean anyone other than jws?.
Q1.Comparing a farmer to amazing growth.So a farmer plants (J.W. preaching) only to get a meager harvest.Yeah, to the gbes a harvest of 5 bushels to the acre is amazing growth.
Q5 In the 1st century from thousands of disciples ( of Jesus) to a few hundred disciples (of Jehovah) by 1879,yeah amazing transformation and growth.

Now lets look at the above in todays world.Would the state (government) after convicting a man of murder, torture him by hard work all his life only to kill him at the end of his life.Would a loving parent torture his son all his life for one mistake.
Why does God of the wbts blame man for ruining the Earth when he made those evil thorns and thistles.Today man had to get destroy those evil weeds by chemicals.See no thorns no chemicals.
The list goes on...Look at all of God's wars and destruction.
Maybe it is me but the more I read the Bible the more I get *^%&^%#* .........................
