Thanks for your story. I happy that brothers like you share your experiences. I served in Latvia after the fall of communism. It was a good experience. Be sure Jehovah God will reward all who loves him and continues to do his will. If you understand the truth better than todays GB, do not worry. Let your light shine. Do not fear men. Just do God's will. Jehovah will replace people taking the lead among his people like he replaced in former times. Like in todays WT-study wich was about David and Saul.

Personal finance points to remember (point # 4): developing good habits
by JimmyPage inregardless of your income, you can make your dollars stretch further if you practice good financial habits and avoid mistakes.
in fact, the lower your income, the more important it is that you make the most of your income and savings (because you don't have the luxury of falling back on your next fat paycheck to bail you out).. more and more industries are subject to global competition, so you need to be on your financial toes now more than ever.
job security is waning; layoffs and retraining for new jobs are increasing.

Good points, your words are very similar to the wisdom in Proverbs. Even Jesus our Lord said: who has left his brothers for his sake will get houses, fields etc. in this period of time. (Mark 10:30) The true wisdom in God's word and God's blessing will make it possible to leave poverty and to have what we need. Like houses and fields.

I'm like you dissapointed with the "organization". But why to question the truthness of God's word? If Jehovah God forgave David's sins and Jesus is called, "the son of David", does it not show that God still loves David and will resurrect him? I know that it is not allways easy to accept all things in the Holy Scriptures, but the holy spirit can help anyone to come to know the depth and length of the knowledge of God.

I apologize for the error with the chapter.
And about Bush. I think he had some important missions he accomplished.

To solve the economic problems, I would suggest to have 20% tax on income. And in the begining just print more money to pay salaries to governmental workers in all countries if the collected taxes are not sufficient.

I believe the world will get better to a point that people will be saying "peace and security". In some ways the world gets better and better every day. Don't you agree?

Honesty, you said it well, that they beat the sheep instead of feeding them. It's conforting to know that it has been predicted to happen. Forexample Ezekiel chap 34 descibes this well. You can convienently check this on the wt-onlinebible http://www.watchtower.org/e/bible/index.htm

The Bible really speaks of anointed christians, it is a fact. They will even be taken from every nation. They have a mission to give spiritual food to other sheep. But evidently the anointed ones in the GB do not understand many things about the perpose of the anointed ones.
