i was thinking about green handshakes, and i knew my wife and i personally would try to slide at least $100 each c.o visit to the c.o.
if we were low on cash, we'd never hand him less than $20.
how many of such handshakes does he receive in a weeks time?
I would give the CO normally a handshake of $150. Once we had the DO visit and while I was working with him in service, he was explaining all the expenses they had. I had just got a nice bonus from work and gave him a $500 envelope. What a waste. The CO went more often on vacation than I did and the DO was shortly thereafter DFed.
i know of one CO who bought a house cash when he retired. They are well off. I am sure the same goes for all higher ups, especially the GB.
ok... my other thread i cant respond.
we went to shut up our family... but myhusband is seething and said his brain has shut off.. the stupid is amazing.. they are playing videos that are lame and pointless for the first symposium.. for the first symposium... they asked why the bible has no pictures.
because it was before photography...jesus used word pictures!!
in the video, they repeatedly talk about these big ugly misunderstandings that have taken place between the circuit overseers and the elders,, at least partially, leading to their current money problems fiasco.. if the governing body were intentionally lying, wouldn't they lie to make themselves and their elders look better, instead of worse?.
what would the motive be for them to tell everyone about these big misunderstandings?.

"Made some very bad mistakes" that's it? What did they do for the preteen victims...nothing. Same problem, different cult

The Sophia video is a new all time low for the society. Hope this stealing from Children helps wake a few up.
when my niece was very little (over 20 years ago), barely walking or talking, my mother decided to teach her "where jehovah lives".
she would coach her and say, "where does jehovah live?
" in a sing-song voice.
so as i am "listening" to the wt study going on this question was asked.
"how do you feel about refined understanding?".
some of the comments were:.
i get the google alerts for the jws and below is from one of the obits it sent out regarding a sister that was 76 years old when she died:.
joan attended beauty school and was a certified nurses assistant at the manor nursing home.
she was a member of the cowlitz congregation of jehovahs witnesses.
yep, these gems and comments were used in the talk today:.
speaking of ones who "failed to show appreciation for all the rich spiritual food we get from the f&ds", the speaker said this:.
"many have even failed to keep up with everything we are lovingly provided by christ's brothers, and rather than keeping their faith strong, they have become complacent and even critical ofjehovah's provisions!
"those who leave the congregations and organisations ALWAYS end up bringing unhappiness to their lives, and end up miserable, lost and in all sorts of turmoil"
Yeah right...generally the exact opposite is true. Leaving was the single best decision I ever made in my entire life. I enjoy every day of being in the Driver seat of my life, allowed to make my own mistakes and learn from them. My adult life is the happiest ever.
any ideas what this is about?
- apparently a three hour public address through each kingdumb hell from the gb.
anyone heard anything about this?.
