sadly, jehovah's witnesses depend on their religion to save them, and the bible does not point to religion as a saving point for salvation.. the video message below shows from the bible that for salvation, jesus paid it all for you.. are you saved?.
JW's rely on the borganization because they were told to.
Like I said somewhere before, they infantilize the JW's to make them independent. All you need to do is look at people in everyday life and they live just fine without any kind of 'organization'
most churches in the usa are in decline according to pew research.. i wonder what the real jw attendance percentages would be?
mind you from what i hear there's still a lot of them attending meetings on zoom.. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jan/22/us-churches-closing-religion-covid-christianity?.
.
With JW's, common sense takes a back seat and believe whatever the Borg tells them.
They check their brains at the door and are under the impression that people are flocking to their borganization when the evidence 100% proves otherwise.

In JWdom, their theology has a way of twisting things so that their sheeple are infantilized and dependent on the borganization in order to gain salvation. Mind control and indoctrination runs deep.
it's difficult to comprehend how arrogant the members of the governing body must be to sanction much of the content that appears in their literature.
they identify themselves as the 'faithful and discreet slave' - that alone requires an astonishing degree of pride.
but what is even more amazing - arguably to the level of insanity - is the way they then use that phrase to elevate themselves above the rest of the organisation.
The Borg will always use 3rd person narrative in order to confuse it's followers. It's a way to interchange the Borg with God.

correction, there is no such thing as a bethel family, bethel hotel, yes, there always been bethelites coming and going.
""now they need to U turn back as people keep taking them to stay fully vexed just because of what the GB""
Probably just suits a personal agenda. They may realize that someone on the GB may be vulnerable and they have to pursue their own personal safety and interests.
after being around this site for 21 years now, i've heard many recount their stories and feelings.
many times i can immediately relate but other times they seem to have had a very different experience with the church.
i'm sure that is because not only are all of us different in personality, but congregations and family dynamics vary as well.
The WT is very controlling of millions of members lives.
Yes, because we are dealing with a multi-billion dollar tax free conglomerate here. When you have a multi-billion dollar tax free organization, they have to keep that business up. When you have a tax-free organization doing this,,they have to resort to these levels to drum-up more control. They have to,,,,adapt to the times,,reinvent itself and evolve in order to keep up this system raking-in billions of tax-free dollars. That's how I've often lie there in bed thinking about it. They have to evolve with the times to keep that model going.
.....you imperfect shower!!!.
w74 2/1 p. 96 questions from readers - “in the case of those who will rule with jesus christ, jehovah god...“declares them righteous” and thus views them as being perfect, without sin, while yet in the flesh on earth.” (rom.
8:33) .
He's probably singling you out because you were convenient at the time.
He probably realizes that he's a closet-alcoholic himself and he has to dump his heaping guilt and vent on you.

""The moral of the story...Jehovah eases all your pain while attending Kingdom Hall meetings with family and friends.""
or,
The moral of the story can be as just disregard all things that are important to you. Put your safety and well-being aside and who cares if someone dies or is in danger. Just put your behind in those seats and listen to whatever we say. No matter what, just shut-up and obey.
"Do the new member of the GB wear pinky rings?"
Evidently, maybe ,they could be. Likely.
