  I'd even venture to say the Borg places the gb even higher than God or Jesus,,,,all the time.

  I mean that's all they talk about....is gb that..gb this all the time. You hear it in prayers gb this,gb that. All they talk about.

  The key word ""can"". You '''can''' live forever. That one word carries soo much weight...yet it's soooo overlooked and not given much thought by JW's

  ever since the annual meeting last october and the letter to bodies of elders stating that "exceptional young men perhaps in their early 20's could qualify for appointment as elders.." it even states this in the updated elders manual!

  have any of you pimo's, pimq's, or those on here with family/friends still in hear of any young men being appointed as elders yet?

  i am talking 21, 22, 23, 24 etc.

  Just read that Carl Olof Jonsson died yesterday

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for newbies, who was carl olof jonsson?

  he was a jw in sweden who was challenged by a householder in the 1960s, who pointed out to him that secular history books don’t agree with watchtower that jerusalem was destroyed in 607 bce, but instead place the event 20 years later.

  the reason the date is important is because it is the starting date for jw chronology which leads to 1914 as the end of the gentile times, and the beginning of the last days, as jws understand it.

  yes once I read CoC, not long after I read Carl Olaf Jonson's books.

  Ray Franz, James Penton and Carl Olaf Jonson,,,all very instrumental in waking me up and countless others from the dishonesties and underhanded teachings of the Borg.

  ""Yes, until Caesar bans them.""

  Just as long as they ''legally can'', the carts will continue. It's always about the Borg covering it's a$$et$ first,,,,and foremost.

  The Borg places the GB above God and Jesus Christ. Even when they claim to ''err' and are ''infallible''.

  GB voice of Jesus....

  by enoughisenough in

  a short sweet video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ekihoczyfg she put a link to the whole video if you care to watch.

  here is the thing that came to my mind: by isolating just that part, the part sounds rather hubris, shocking, audacious.

  when the jw hear it couched in a talk and woven in with scriptures, they will take it in without giving a real thought as to what is really being said..

  WE have Geofrey Jackson lying to the Australain Royal Commision that ''that would be presumptious''. Then this video comes out about Jesus being equivalent to the governing body.

  How can the rank and file JW be obliviously blind to all of this. It's called ''mind control''.

  Christmas Decorations at the Kingdom hall

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i can't remember if i've told this story before .... but back in the day, in irlam congregation (northwest england, uk, cheshire #1 circuit i think) we used to rent a kingdom hall for many years before we eventually built our own.. preston hall.

  ah, the memories .... it was primarily used as a community hall for old folks, but we had it friday night and sunday morning.. there was a loft and fold-out ladder and we used to store the chairs up their.

  every meeting, there would be an assembly line of all the "lads" to pass the chairs down and set them up, then collect them up and pass them back up at the end of the meeting.

  ""As I understand it, the Xmas at the WTS HQ picture was kept quiet until Ray Franz mentioned it (and showed it) in CoC. Then the society made mention of the early days, when they celebrated Xmas, and also showed the picture. I wonder if it would have ever been mentioned, had Franz not done so. My guess is no.""

  My guess is 100% '''NO'' also. Of course, not.
