  Sales of Bethel premises and transfer of millions to Brooklyn ?

  sales of bethel premises and transfer of millions to brooklyn ?.

  just heard a very surprising and unbelievable news which i want to share with you and ask whoever has the right connections higher up in the borg, if this kind of news can be double checked for reliability.. .

  the source of the information is believed to be reliable as it seems to be intimately related to some officials of the branch.

  They may refer to the GB to give this unpopular decision the strongest support. If it was just another comitee there (even personally known to some people) there might be questioning. But if it is the GB it must be from Jehovah.

  My Latest Freeminds Blog

  jehovahs witnesses (jw) are taught to never listen to a word, or read an article by those who have left their former faith.

  any critical information is viewed as poisonous to your faith.

  it will kill your faith.

  I also see many JW-parallels in the Matrix-movies.

  I like this quote very much:

  Neo: I can’t go back, can I?
  Morpheous: No. But if you could, would you really want to?

  i listened to the talk of samuel herd, a governing body member.

  he says something like, many new anointed are real trouble-makers in the congregations.

  I find the Bible reading at 9:25 most disturbing.

  BTW, the comments say this is not Herd but Brown or someone else.

  ever feel like you just wanna give up?

  i'm losing my job at the end of this month.

  because of the financial situation in the world, there's a hiring freeze on both internally and externally and hardly any positions are coming up.

  Sorry to hear that. From your appearance here you seem to be a rather intelligent person so I trust you will have another job, soon. But the times are tough at the moment.

  A question for you guys who edited your own "Revelation Climax (AntiClimax) Books

  by Alpaca in

  i left in 1997 so i didn't enjoy the privilege of editing my personal copy of the book.. there was a thread on here a few years ago about it but i was left with the impression that it was just a few marginal notes.. now, on another thread there are comments about cutting and pasting stuff into the book.. just how extensive were the edits?.

  i cannot believe the borg (sorry, yes i can) would direct such a bizarre exercise for publishers.

  how many of you said wtf?.

  Also in the old days this was common practice. As a fourth-gen-JW I remember some of the older books in our family library that had larger parts put into books from the publishers, with scissors and glue.

  I have heard they could be legal if they called themselves "JW of China" and were independant from Brooklyn.

  May 15th Watchtower - New Light?

  by slimboyfat in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the new watchtower asks the question: "when was satan cast out of heaven?

  - rev 12:1-9".

  and the answer it gives is: "so, then, the bible does not reveal the exact time when satan and his demons were expelled from heaven.

  I remember that there was a reference to Satans outcast in 1918 in the Prince of Peace-Book.

  The QfR about Satan starting WWI to confuse the nations about the Gentile time's end must have been in the 40s.
