8Jehovah / Yahweh must be blessing the Seventh Day Adventist movement and not the Jehovah`s Witnesses.
by smiddy inif you look at the facts and history of both of these religions , you do see a similarity , not only in belief , but also the timing of their origins.
end times ., paradise earth ( similar to the christadephians , baptists ,and other end times religions ) etc.. the jehovah`s witnesses s put a lot of weight on everybody doing door to door work in the ministry .and counting the time spent doing so.. the seventh day adventists do a fraction of the time doing door to door ministry by everybody in their religion , if they even require every body to go d2d and count their time.
i do not know.. what i do know is that the s.d.a.`s have more than twice the number of active believers than the j.w.`s do , over a similar time of history .. so does that not indicate conclusively that the god of the bible is blessing the s.d.a.`s over the j.w.`s ?

someday, will the WT be desperate for memorial attendance numbers, to have memorial program online? Really, why do people have to go, scramble from work, to make memorial, herd in and out as cattle. for other cong. when there is only 1 partaker per 8 congs. It's just another of their whirlwinds. -

I was amazed "Spotlight" won the 2016 Academy Awards for Best Movie last night!! I think it really verifies that people are not going to put up with religion. They aren't going to unquestion religion anymore! They are not going to let 'religion' hurt people anymore. More will listen to the similarity of the Watchtower organization who has covered up the disgusting pedophile issue in the organization. Also, exposure about their stance on "shunning" and how the the WT is splitting up families and the people will have utter disgust for the whole jw.org. -

New letter about new tasks for the shipping department at Bethel Selters

So, the WT is saving costs, to ship all mags/literature to save shipping costs to have Selters to turn around and ship to 101 countries,???
What otherwise 'books' do they print in England branch now?? What 'works' are being done there in England now?? Why is all this priority building being done now in Britain?
Seems there is such helter-skelter manic operations in the WT. A struggling to survive?? Could the Britain "charity status" be threatening??
The WT.org can always rely on its members to jump for them to work for free and save a dime for their leadship as they to try to brace up the tottering organization.

Just heard from someone who was just in Cozumel that there are 9 Kingdom Halls in about a mile zone.

can anyone verify?

2015 Service Report shows in Mexico there ratio of 1 JW per 146 population. With 100,000 in Cozumel, at that ratio, could be 684 pubs. about. So, if there are 76 pubs. per cong. that would come to 9 congregations. Most population in San Miguel. -

Some people are comfortable with slavery! When these have accepted slavery all their lives, how can they walk away from it when old. They have made their cage, and now must die in it. -

So I had a conversation with an older brother...
by My Name is of No Consequence inrecently, i was speaking with an older brother who is well into his 80's and is a widower.
he explained to me that it is tough getting old and that "nothing works right anymore".
he told me that he was able to get through his 70's with few problems.

They became comfortable with their lies. In all these decades, nothing could 'poke' their heart of truth. Their heart of truth died long ago. -

Hope JWs can see this and acknowledge that the org. is getting lots of big money in all this. Hopefully many will surmise they don't need to knock themselves out in giving so much money to Headquarters.
