  I would have thought that the legal part of the AGM, the part that we never see, would have to take place.

  Maybe the rest of the AGM will be replaced by GB updates such as we are seeing on JW Broadcasting.

  JW's can now request a "territory" to be assigned for them to work. This was announced at our field service meeting last Saturday. It followed another early morning elders ZOOM meeting with the CO. It was emphasised once again that this is the publishers own personal ministry.

  So if anything should go wrong, don't call the Branch Office, it's nothing to do with them. This is YOUR own personal ministry.

  Currently at the "Congregation Bible Study" (or Bible study without the Bible) "Jesus-The Way, the Truth, the Life" book is examined.

  I remember studying the Greatest Man book when I was very little, but was it just for kids? I can’t remember.

  The "Jesus - the way the ....etc" is just a reprint of the old Greatest Man book.

  Cowardly Change of Policy in the UK

  by Slidin Fast in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the britain branch has called a confidential meeting tonight with a controversial announcement.

  the message is of such import that it was transmitted by word of mouth only, nothing in writing, ears only.

  a decision made by the governing body of jehovah's witnesses and transmitted orally down the chain of command, a decision proving the leadership of this spirit lead body.. the gdpr laws in the uk have been interpreted by wt lawyers so that all record keeping relating to the public has been banned, telephone witnessing and letter writing also, forbidden.. now in a show of supreme bravado the publishers are to be informed that if they wish to, if they dare, they may write to people at their own risk.. bear in mind, nothing is in writing.

  This is absolutely correct. All our circuit elders met with the CO via zoom early on Saturday morning. This was then conveyed to the congregation at the Saturday FS zoom meeting. No questions could be asked as neither the elder nor the CO knew the answers.

  This is an aspect of your "own personal ministry". Which means as has been mentioned if you get problems from the law you have no redress with either the congregation or the Branch office as nothing has been put in writing.

  Despicable.

  any 16 year old horny lad would dump his best-friend-in-the-sky in a flash if he could get laid regularly.

  JW's and the National Anthem/Flag

  by Anony Mous in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  one thing we were always taught in the past is how we should sit down and pray (kneel) to jehoober whenever we were at an event where they played the national anthem.

  we had to actively disrespect the flag and anthem and be no part of the world, because we were our own country with jesus as king.. given kneeling/sitting for the national anthem is now the favorite pastime of the far-left and if you do so, you get associated with democrats, how do jehovah's witnesses now 'become no part of this world' when they have to disrespect the flag?.

  JW's always sat down when the National Anthem played. If they were already sitting they would remain seated.

  Then there was a change, 1985 I think, that said if you were already standing you did not need to sit but could remain standing during the Anthem.

  George

  Edit: - school brochure

  *** sj pp. 15-16 Flag Salute, Anthems and Voting ***

  When national anthems are played, usually all that a person has to do to show that he shares the sentiments of the song is to stand up. In such cases, Witness youths remain seated. However, if our youths are already standing when the national anthem is played, they would not have to take the special action of sitting down; it is not as though they had specifically stood up for the anthem. On the other hand, if a group are expected to stand and sing, then our young people may rise and stand out of respect. But they would show that they do not share the sentiments of the song by refraining from singing.

  • Ironic that if the queen were to have sex with a 12 year old child... today... that's is not lawfully a crime.

    Not sure how you work that out, here in the UK the age of consent is 16.

  Zoom meetings, how long ?

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was wondering two things, 1: how long in total are the zoom meetings, i presume the sunday one is the longest ?.

  and 2: if you use zoom for free, the session only lasts 40 minutes, so do they have an intermission so people can log back in, or are all jw's expected to pay for the "privilege" ?.
