45 Minute Bethel Video about Changes (downsizing) at Watchtower

by OnTheWayOut in

i don't see this posted elsewhere, and i don't have the links besides this facebook one.. but here is a 45-minute long bethel talk about the changes at bethel including addressing the hard feelings of people who were given the axe.

basically, everything must change.

we gave remaining bethelites saturday off to do our bidding in "the field" and we give bethelites over 70 an extra day a week off (if you can find any such bethelites).

Over 300 DFed apparently went to a northern U.K R.C!

by Isambard Crater in

that's what i've been told by a family member (elder) who went to one of the regional conventions in the north of the u.k lately, who told me the 300 or more disfellowshipped who returned to jehovah by attending show that the end is so close, just like the final talk says..

pepperheart

Even if 300 people did go unless they start giving money to the watchtower it wont really be of any use because with all the cuts that have been these past years have shown the watchtoer need money rather than just people filling seats

Is the End right around the corner or what???

by Lynnie in

interesting observations i've noticed when visiting my uber elder cousin and his wife.

he just inherited a lovely home on the water on puget sound from his non jw dad who passed away earlier this year.

so they have spent many $$$ and months remodeling this house to their standards which are quite expensive tastes.

pepperheart

NO NO NO the watchtower themselves dont think the end is near because of all the cuts they have made these past five years

Juarez MX Assembly Kingdom Hall to be sold.

by ironsnake656 in

there are several confirmed announcements in some congregations around the city regarding the sale of the assembly kingdom hall.

one of the reasons why it will be sold is that expenses are not covered by donations.

the hall was dedicated in 2009. actually, in some congregations the elders have not given the announcement for the publisher's reaction... .

I think in a few years they will have some "new light" and stop shunning people so that all the people who want to leave can and in doing so will mean they can sell off lots more kingdom halls off

It makes you wonder where all the money has been going,on the watchtowers own website it tells you that in 2012 they sold over 20 branch headquaters from around the world,

I think the watchtower know they are going to be around for a long long time and so are trying to make the billion dollars they got from selling the new york bethel off last a long time

The average Witness will continue to follow Watchtower leadership whether right or wrong.

by UnshackleTheChains in

i hate to say this, but given my own experience as a jw for almost 3 decades, i am beginning to believe the average jw will continue to look to and be guided by the gb regardless of whether they are right or wrong.. despite all the scandals and negative media attention the watchtower organisation is receiving, life seems to go on as normal in jw land.

it's truly bizarre!!.

clearly, the gbs tactic of mostly hiding away from the media is clearly working for them.

pepperheart

This is why all the cuts are so good because when the money from selling the family silver has run out (selling the new york and london bethels) they will have to start selling kingdoms halls off and that will make it harder for people to get to a kingdom hall

Why the vitriolic hate?

by stuckinarut2 in

i am sure we have all thought of this before, but it struck me again today:.

why does the society promote such vitriolic hate toward, and about those who have left "the truth" ?.

surely it is obvious that such critical attitudes towards ones like us who have left, only serves to proove that they do not have "the truth"?.

The watchtower is scared of losing people
