  2021 Annual Meeting Talk, "I Will Never Abandon You"

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  this 19 minute talk by “governing body” member samuel herd lacks enthusiasm, energy and mostly reads his script.

  looks like he was forced to talk about something he no longer believes, but goes along what was written to appease the rest of the ''governing body.''.

  mr. herd says, ''sometimes we have to make adjustments.

  a friend says the wt gives a substantial sum to retiring cos. he says one bought land and built near him, a desirable rural area.

  i think it must have been saved green handshake money or inherited.. btw this man also thinks the gb are the smartest men alive..

  i was listening to the co talk to my wife’s congregation on sunday and pretty much the complete talk was justifying doctrinal and organizational changes and pretty much preparing the ‘rank and file’ for upcoming changes.

  anyone on hear have any insight of what ‘new light’ is coming in the future?.

  Did this actually happen? More manipulation by fear. Propaganda at its finest.

  The whole 537/539/1914, Ezekiel’s, Daniels prophecy and the interpretation of the book of revelation are merely distractions that the organization uses to steal a tiny bit more of your limited resources to enrich themselves.

  Dedicated funds

  by road to nowhere in

  in one of the videos there was a mention of how hard the great eight work.

  i noticed that they had to decide how to use donated money---not dedicated money.

  a subtle difference..

  That’s probably why they promote donating to the world wide work. It is considered general revenue and they can do as they please with the funds.

  In my experience anyone who states how hard they work don’t really work that hard.

  I guess that doesn’t answer the question about dedicated funds but the fact that they are promoting themselves indicate they are concerned about their position

  It reminds me of the old Soviet countries. Communism was the best way of life but they had to put razor wire at all the borders just to keep their citizens from leaving.

  If they let jws quietly leave, everyone would probably leave.
