A simple explanation for the financial changes

by JeffT in

jw
friends

as i've mentioned from time to time, i'm a retired accountant.

i have tried many times to come up with some logical, sound business reason why the wtbs has made the big changes in its financial arrangements: taking the congregations savings, the monthly donations per congregation etc.

i finally came up with the answer.. the leadership of the watchtower society is batshit crazy.

I think the $hit is about to hit the fan with these financial issues. Probably that Royal Commission had more detrimental effects which we don't really know about.

More Conditioning in Sunday's Watchtower

by Socrateswannabe in

have you read the article, "this is our place of worship" in the july 15, 2015 study edition of the watchtower?

it is the study article for this coming sunday.

note the brainwashing techniques they're using to condition the jws to a total takeover of their kingdom halls, in the excerpts below.

Sunday's WT was probably one of the most hideous ones yet. The conditioning and mind control was just horrendous.

Brooklyn Layoffs and Halt to Kingdom Hall construction projects

by James Jack in

a good source just just told me that at morning worship today that the governing body announced that a total of 1600 bethelites will be let get go and not transferred to warwich when the last property is sold in brooklyn and all kingdom hall building projects are on hold for at least a year so that all the focus will be on the preaching work.

From Brazil:

I knew of a congregation that had some land and build the Kingdom Hall this year. Announcement today: Current Kingdom Hall will be sold and there will be construction.

In the same state, a work was in progress. Built walls and R $ 80,000 (approximately $ 20,000) on purchased building materials. Letter Branch: canceled work.

All expansion works at Bethel in Brazil stopped.

This is all so peculiar, odd yet interesting. This is just a complete 180 from May 2014 about that letter regarding the mortgage forgiveness then the constant lump sum to bethel each month. This was all for the ''supposed'' need of Kingdom Halls, but everything and everywhere is now at a halt? Yes very interesting.

Revolt Brewing At Headquarter and Different Branches and The Governing Body Is Losing Credibility Among It's Staff

by Brokeback Watchtower in

in my mind i see this as a very real situation developing rapidly world wide as these child molestation pay out become public knowledge and can no longer be denied or kept secret from the r&f.

pretty soon the governing body will be the but of many jokes at headquarters and abroad.

they are being caught red handed while robbing the cookie jar.

''all of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether they seem strategic from a human standpoint or not''

They could swing this and put it in a way that they are being obedient. Plain and simple. By sending people home from bethel.

Rumor Confirmed!: Bethel Downsize First Hand

by freemindfade in

i just texted a very good remote worker friend, said i heard that there is a reduction in force coming at bethel and i hoped he wouldn't be affected.

.

he said its true, its not a rumor.

Beth Sarim

If this is true about the construction work being suspended, there is just no logic. The May 2014 letter about the loan forgiveness to the congregations, but to keep on sending a lump sum of money each month, now this?? Something seems very, very wrong with the Borg. That is if they are to keep on receiving millions from the congregations each month then only to suspend construction work. What gives??

I don't know, but in the last 5 or so years, it's obvious the Borg is fighting to stay alive. I mean not 5 years ago the internet was so frowned upon. Now it seems all they do is push jw.org and live broadcasts. Overkill.

I know this sounds mean, but I have a hard time feeling bad for people who've set themselves up to be screwed

Hmmm, I thought about that maybe you're right. Secret Slave Class, good point too. The Bethelites seem to think very highly of themselves, noses high in the air like they're the upper echelon of society!!

Yeah, I can't thank enough who provides these leaks. It really gives one a sense of what's on the radar such as ''we all must be ready to obey any instructions whether they may seem strategic from a human standpoint or not''. One can prepare themselves. Very, very much appreciated!!

World Wide Construction comes to a Shuddering Halt - Jehovah's Blessing has Evidently been Suspended!

by Slidin Fast in

the chelmsford project in the uk has already come to a halt and every one has been sent home.

the bethel family in london is to be cut by several hundred.

my impression is that most ambitious youngster in the org dream of being involved with the building program.
