  I think circuit overseers should have a job like the apostle Paul

  by forzaitalia in

  am i being mean, thinking that travelling overseers should get a part-time job like paul did, in order to not be a burden to the congregation?

  i wouldn't put my hand up when we were asked to raise it if we were happy to give £50 from congregation funds to the c.o.

  so that he could take his wife out for a meal.

  ""Bethel's getting closed down soon and the KHs won't be available for the CO apartments either""

  KH's with built-in baptism pools, built-in kitchens can easily be converted to a homeless or community shelter.

  Hailstones (2)

  by NotFormer in

  with the change to reporting field service and now allowing people to repent during the gt, presumably up until armageddon, i'm assuming that the "hailstones" message is now permanently on hold.

  can someone explain this to me; am i understanding this right?.

  It's hard to imagine how they could back-peddle from this, ,, should the Borg if/when promote a ''kindler,gentler'' religion.

  My guess is the onlly time this would/could take place if the Borg is going bankrupt and has no choice,,,but in a hail-marry attempt to retain membership.

  Real reasons behind this change?

  by Gorb in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  just a good conversation at home about the hour report change.. we think the change was not impmemented because the gb are such a lovely bunch of old grandpa's having the best in mind for us individuals.. there will be only, and we say only, an organizational reason for it.

  a legal reason, to protect jw.org and it's officials and wealth.. next step?

  maybe selling more kh and when jw hollywood studio's in rampoo are ready a change to tv subscription.. what do you think?

  Thought on “0 hours” reporting

  by FFGhost in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so everyone knows the “big news” of this past weekend, no more reporting of hours, placements, return visits, etc.

  beginning november 1, jws just tick a box indicating whether they “shared in any form of the ministry during the month”.. so there was a brief comment by a redditor that seems like a brief joke “throwaway comment” but after thinking about it….why not?.

  the idea is, what is “any form of the ministry”?

  "The GB have basically painted themselves into a corner on this one.""

  And once they do this,,,they cant go back. They cant backtrack. It can only happen once

  Circuit overseers.

  Here's a guy who has likely never worked a day in his life or had a real job,,,ever.

  Probably never changed a tire on a vehicle.

  Nor applied for a loan.

  And the $heeples fear and listen to this guy like he's a God send???

  I just don't get it.

  The JWs reach retirement age totally unprepared.

  Why? Do you think the Borg ever prepares people for retirement?? Hnm?

  What,,,is the Borgs constant message??? Its gloom and doom fear-mongering Armageddon is imminent.

  JWs are victims

  Information is readily available at anyone's finger tips. To dismantle this indoctrination.

  Agreed,,,its hard to feel sorry for indoctrinated JWs,,,anymore.

  Sell everything you have like homes,,property and vehicles.

  Cash in your retirement funds.

  Cash in your stocks and bonds.

  Hand over everything to the Borg.

  ""You no longer need them.""

  And,,I believe some will be stupid enough to believe all this.
