it began during the last annual meeting of 2014 and now is trikling down to their watchtower magazines, this new "live and let live" attitude towards people of other faiths, or as they were known as babylon the great soon to be dead in the hands of god members.but it is a new different story, so let's read paragraph 15 from study article 15:.
"jehovah is kind to both the righteous and the unrighteous.

8. Multimedia stuff.
You know something. As you drive by Latter Day Saints temples more & more of them seem to have huge satellite dishes erected on their property
You think in the backk of your mind ""what does a church need with satellite dishes".
The way the Borganization has gone in the last 10 years,,,, its understandable. Broadcasting.....what not....
With Ramapo they can become a 24 hr TV evangelist. They need IT people all the time....
The printing era....gone...

Laying low.
Like in the Florida keys.
Or Belize.
from my experience within the jw organization, i understood that salvation meant a person accepted the teachings of the wbts without question as the "faithful and discrete slave," thereby placing their trust in them, not jesus christ.
salvation consisted of being found "righteous" by jehovah and resurrected to everlasting life in an earthly paradise.
to obtain this salvation, one needed to obey the organization's teachings, remain a faithful jw, and lead a moral life.
" apparently,, evidently., maybe,, perhaps,,, likely,,,clearly,,,,"""
..doesnt mesh well.
Neither does """we just don't know"".

I fell straight for it also

" the governing body is neither inspired nor infallible".
Doesnt mesh with "at that time the lifesaving instructions may not seem practical from a human standpoint. All of us,,, must be ready to obey any instructions..."""

Yes. Those talks. I remember them vividly.
About those great tribulation starting & you're locked-in & your fate is sealed when the GT starting.
A lull & hush would sweep over the circuit assembly. All you could hear was a child goooing & gahhing & the ventilation system.
That wasn't even a decade ago.
Now those "intense talks"" are just.......

They dont know what they teach themselves.
Not long ago,,,, maybe 8 - 10 years ago there were talks about whatever you were doing at that time you were locked-in and you were doomed.
Now,, we have this last minute repentance thing??
They dont know !!
for those on this forum who still consider themselves christian or students of the bible, are there any bible principles you came across during your own study or research that were never brought out by the gb of the jws but that you found significant or profound?.
i don't mean doctrinal issues like the trinity, heaven & hell, etc, as these are issues christendom has been arguing over for centuries.
i mean simple, scriptural principles that the gb could've highlighted at any time, but for various reasons - some obvious, some less so - have chosen not to.. one that stood out to me is in 1 samuel chapters 2, 3 and 4.. young samuel has been dedicated to the temple and is being raised to serve god there.
The governing body hijacked the ""faithful servant" parable in Matthew 24:45 to make it apply to them.
Faithful slave.
