BBC are saying it happened “NEAR” a church. I can’t believe how they are willing to lie...my father worked for the beeb for years and I used to trust it so much. When David Attenborough dies that’s it for my license fee!!!!

something funny happened on the way to November--
by waton instude 138 this week is about jesus ruling; seen standing in heaven, sitting at the right hand, standing up for his people, sitting down again for judgement, riding ---but the portion, what he is actually biblical doing right now, col. 1:13 was never read or discussed.
even the whole section of the book's article was not read!.
next month jws are covering the land with their kingdom of 1914 and soon panda paradise saga, but will deaden into silence the ~ 2000 year old real possible kingdom of --- love.. was the whole chapter 138 read in your zoom room?

What's the Latest re How JW's are Associating and Preaching?
by mikronboy ini've been out of the loop for a while so some things have passed me by.
so i'm curious how jw's are affected by the covid virus.
are they still preaching or having meetings etc?.

Are they actively pushing Covid as a sign that the End is Near ( again ) ?
Jan
Yes Jan. I've heard on this board of uninterested non believing mates suddenly going to meetings and studying for baptism! A GB member has done morning worship on the subject, claiming they're not surprised and have been predicting this for years...indeed it's a good time because the pandemic proves the GT is close! So yes, they are using COViD to claim Armageddon is close.
But then Watchtower does that with any & everything.
The travel/dressing time is reduced. And it is far easier to get a drink and snack or browse something
Road to nowhere I'd put a tv next to my browser (out of sight)&and just watch something else...all the time looking like I'm watching the zoom meeting😜

Just to say if you still have faith Borean pickets have their own zoom meetings.
I agree you need to speak with your Dad and get his permission to stay. He is under no obligation to shun you as he isn't baptised. Maybe show him JWfacts and get him thinking. Tell him he needs to do his research before he gets baptised.
Tell him what kind of man Rutherford was. Would Jesus have chosen him to lead his one true org in 1919?
I recommend buying him Crises of Conscience and asking him to read it. I promise he will never get baptised once he's read that book.
If all else fails....@Cookiemaster sounds promising !!!

wt organizationthimk (last week's study)
by waton infor those who want to see how bad it really is, 2 thoughts: .
1) the article says "jehovah" gave gifts in men, but the bible in gal: 6 clearly mentions the one who ascended into heaven as the one, jesus, their reigning king, that does provides these " the captives.. of course when wt writers say jehovah they really mean the wt society.
and local elders, ms, really are wt appointees, now done by the co, a man with no assets.

Yes Funky it's gifts unto men....in other words simply gifts to men.
More Watchtower twisting scriptures to control people, brag and glorify themselves.

Prime Minister of Australia announces intention to revoke Jehovah’s Witnesses charity status
by jwleaks intoday, marking the second anniversary of the australian national apology to victims and survivors of institutional child sexual abuse, the prime minister of australia has announce in federal parliament the intention to place sanctions against the jehovah’s witnesses in relation to child sexual abuse.. quote from prime minister:.
the royal commission [into institutional response to child sexual abuse], the [national] apology [to victims and survivors of institutional child sexual abuse] and these yearly reports are about accountability: bringing the truth into the light ... we still have, reprehensibly, four institutions that have been named publicly and that have blatantly refused to join the redress scheme.
they are jehovah's witnesses ... it's not acceptable.

400When it comes to money they will find a way around it. Move Aussie operations to NZ maybe and donations to the US. Who knows?
Yup. They'll find some way. They'll get JWs to donate directly to the US fund online or some such.
As to the reasons for not joining its nothing to do with finances.
It's the whole "interfaith" thing, for one. Not admitting publicly they have a problem and not wamting the faithful to know their donations are going to pay off paedophile cases.
But the absolute priority for Watchtower is to protect their reputation among rank and file Jehovah's Witnesses.
They must maintain the pretense that they are special and different to other religions, or bang goes their claim that they are Jehovahs organization.
Without that illusion they are, and have, nothing.

I'm feeling cold
by Lost in the fog inwhen i was a jw i would look to the bible or the wt society to answer all of my problems.. now as an older person i get cold in the wintertime and have trouble getting warm down to bad circulation.

Belgium: Jehovah’s Witnesses to face trial for discrimination and incitement to hate
by AndersonsInfo injehovah’s witnesses to face trial for discrimination and incitement to hate.
https://www.thebulletin.be/jehovahs-witnesses-face-trial-discrimination-and-incitement-hate?fbclid=iwar3wroaxyiadw0lomgmway-jkwzgzqxtswsid1d2lxhjgtndnfvvclqboo0.
"while jehovah’s witnesses have been the target of civil court cases before, this is the first time an entire congregation has ever been charged with a crime.".

Whatever happens, it’s all negative publicity for the cult, which will hopefully prevent anyone in Belgium from getting involved once they read about it in the papers/online etc
Most witnesses will bracket it as ‘persecution’, but if this sort of stuff keeps happening I’ve no doubt it will be the catalyst for others to wake up.

😂😂😂too busy to notice.....yeah right!!
My husband inducted me long ago into the ways of young men!! I said to him once that I was glad he wasn’t one of those men who Lear at women. His response : All men look at pretty women, you can’t help it. But you should never let anyone know you’re doing it as that’s just creepy lol🤣🤣 I guess he’s honest at least!
