Remember early 1990 when they made a sudden change to voluntary donations.To protect their assets. This(new light is a) sudden change when as recently as of Jan.2012 wt.They said "In the parable,Jesus indicated that from the first century onward,there would always be some geniune anointed Christians on the earth." A post here indicated all GB members said"they research,read,reread.prey,etc, before they publish an article. It makes me wonder,to make a change in the same year if they are in some financial difficulty or are afraid of losing their assets,lawsuit,etc.

They are powerfully manipulative, intimidating,aggressive and deceptive.
They have no empathy or remorse care only about themselves.
The 7m sheep are victims and have a hard time seeing what really goes on.
History tells us what the Gestapo did.
History tells us what psychopaths do.
They are saying they are GOD obey us or else we give you the boot.

Poor homeless Bro. Larry Jackson
by ShirleyW intheres a story in the ny daily news today that says this jw is homeless and was denied shelter after having a brief conversation with the woman who helped him with his application after he mentioned he was a jw.
her reasoning of why she denied his application was that she thought he would go door to door in the 45-unit facility!
i myself find that hilarious, he just mightve done that to get his time in!

Questions for Recover and ANY JW here, if can be explained I'll return to JW.
by EndofMysteries inwhile i am waiting for him to answer my question.
i thought i would ask of him and any other jw's.
we are supposed to have the truth, the bible is all scripture is inspired and benefitical for teaching, reproving, and setting things straight.

You should never listen or read their propaganda.
As an Example Nov 2012 awake p28 understanding the Bible:They quote 6 scripture about the dead.
With the following description"The Bible teaches the dead are actually dead.They are not alive in
heaven or somewhere else but are asleep.HENCE,THEY CANNOT PRAISE GOD OR EVEN THINK."
So by their logic the 144,000 are dead, are actually dead,they cannot even think.
So there you have it.They 144,000 cannot give any instruction to the anointed on earth,THEY ARE DEAD
ARE ACTUALLY DEAD.

"Safeguard Your Mind" assembly targeting apostate thinking
by promised_presence ini recently attended the second day of the 2 day assembly for safeguarding your mind.
the first talk was entitled "feed your mind at jehovah's table".
the first portion of this talk specifically targeted apostates warning members to not listen to them "even if they were once strong in the truth or had great responsiblity in the congregation".

"Safeguard Your Mind" I immediately thought of how they will brainwash the mind of the sheep by their propaganda.

Is the midweek meeting the new bookstudy in regards to attendance?
by solomon inwe had our circuit assembly last weekend and this was one of the needs of the circuit.
one of the main points was mid week meeting attendance.
apparently the attendance is very low.

bobld
Right on, low attendance.About family worship night,I for one could not figure out why they called it
a loving provision for the faithful slave.I believe you should worship God every day and read the bible
every day.Not by some rule of some men in N.Y.

A question for Undercover and others

Because we have a brain.
All through life we all try different things.Like Amway, only to find it's a scam.
Some are born into the R.C. and find how bad it is, so they try J.W. only to find how bad it is.
THose born in J.W. land find how bad it is and try something else.We all try different jobs.some we like
others we hate but do it because it puts food on the table.That's life.

German court warns Catholic to pay C.T. of face expulsion.(Indepentant uk news)
The German State collects a religious tax on individual registered R.C.,Protestant and Jews since the 19th century.
Then funnels back to the respective religious bodies.The levy amounts to between 8-9% of an annual Incone tax bill.
I bet the WBTS does not challenge this,because they get a lot of money without asking or saying this is supported
bt voluntary donations.So WBTS what happens when your JW is a poorly paid parttime worker.Cuts
into your revenue does it not. I bet you like highly paid workers in Germany.

Page 19 Disturbing news reports and your children.
What is the Governing Boby's point?That children under 13 should not watch news because of the violence?
How about some disturbing news reports from the bible. Ishbosheth gets his head cutoff.
David kills 200 men and cut thier foreskins off (6 years old asks what are foreshins?)
Davis has sex with another man's wife and kills her husband( 5 year old ask do people kill to have sex)
David disobeys god and 70,000 die.
How about totally destruction of the Amalekies;every man,woman,child,baby,cattle,sheep and donkeys gets killed.
one more how about cutting a baby in half that will scare any child.
The gb always say to make the bible reading alive.I say it scares the bejesus out of the kids.
