we learn interesting things.
Here an example about the hard stand on shunning, in real life, an Interview in a Dutch newspaper.
The JW father, in real life a man with a very good management job at KLM airways in Amsterdam, tells that his believe is always above the relation with his children. "Jehovah is above everything, even you children", free translated.
See the lovely picture, knowing it means nothing to him when the organizational believe is at stake.

the statement in the article "who is leading gods people today?
" in the feb 17th study edition of the wt is very interesting.. it states: ""the g.b.
is neither inspired nor infallible" ..we can err .in doctrinal matters....".
I don't believe there is a major change on the horizon. The article is a triumph story about the GB. Holy Spirit, Angel help, God's approval etc. I think it is a clarification to the rank and file to set thinks straight about the past and not about the future!
a new video is up about the commencement of moving to warwick.shawn bartlett tells the viewers that jehovah has said, through the governing body, ‘it’s time to move out of brooklyn.
‘ then helper robert lucciona says ‘ the governing body, these brothers, as soon as they see god’s direction, they just move, it doesn’t matter if it is long held, cherished ideas, this is the way it has to be done, as soon as they see jehovahs direction.
he just kept nudging imperfect humans, he knew where he wanted us and then we end up where we are supposed to be.
This is the propaganda for the world wide rank and file. How do you tell the poor part of the flock (Africa, South America, Asia) that you move into a new headquarter, just before the end of the world?
There is in the JW world no room for rational communication: we have to cut on finances, have a new strategy, new property management etcetera etcetera. No, there has to be a "heavenly" sauce on it, a halo light.
JW's don't mention this. Normal people get an internal alarm signal hearing this kind of propaganda.
It has some funny side also.

just a few minutes till the start ..... we hope for a news from absalom and wifibandit very soon.. wifibandit, any tread on reddit for am?.
also there were some info about live stream.
any news about that..
That means Seth Hyat made a recent shift from great crowd to anointend.
That is one of the great miracles for me. That recent called anointed make direct progress to the board of directors.
i'm curious if we will have eyewitness reporters at the stanley theater like we do every year....
"It is not to be missed".
anyone visited swifterbant or the video stream at the local kh?.
any high- or lowlights?.
asked my inwife if the new hall is nice (i know it's not).
Hi Anders,
I attended the semi live streaming at the local kingdom hall. Not the dedication at Saturday but the Sunday session. Also with David Splane.
I have to say, he did a nice job. Not the "theology" man from Broadcasting. He was quit, humble and made uplifting comments.
It was a long time ago Gorby went home from a Kingdom Hall with some biblical points to think about.
And that's not bad at all, for a christian, isn't it?
They told the minimalistic design of the new hall will be the new standard worldwide.

recent i had a conversation with an old jw friend.
he told me his mother rejected a blood transfusion in a critical fase, and survived it, and of course it's good to hear that she makes it good now.. what me triggered, was a remark he made about what the elder of the hospital committee told him.. this elder praised the mother of my old friend because of rejecting the transfusion.
the elder told them that most jehovah's witness in the netherlands take a blood transfusion when their life is at stake.

This elder praised the mother of my old friend because of rejecting the transfusion. The elder told them that most Jehovah's Witness in the Netherlands take a blood transfusion when their life is at stake. And that here rejection is with that in mind a good and rare example.
So, my observation is that although the doctrine is still there, most witnesses in more "individual" cultures like here in Holland choose to make their own decision.

I always wondered that the PR department had less influence and was less in "the air" then the 1995 - 2000 years. Jarracs?
one hundred years have passed and the society still supports this lie, which of course, is the basis of their other lies, like that of the unfaithful and not discreet slave appointed in 1919. however, i wonder, what will happen after 50 years, when the overlapped generation will pass?.
and if you want, what will happen with this religion in 2100?, could it survive with the same lie??
?.
Who cares??
i was really puzzled when i opened this edition of the wt magazine at the above “study”.
what on earth has this picture at the top of page 13 got to do with christian watchfulness?
i wasn’t making a connection at all.
Whaha great isn't it.
