Where did you think Micheal Jackson learned the Moon Walk
i came across this nugget in the may 2014 issue:.
"are you moving ahead with jehovah's organization".
....at one time, the anointed remnant were like the little one, but their number grew as other spiritual israelites were brought into gods organization.

i know this has been rehashed, time and again, but i saw this interesting blip on jw.org last night, and did a little thinking about it.... jw.
org answers the important question that so many have... are jehovah's witnesses a cult?.
jehovah's witnesses do not look to any human as their leader.

Daffy : No I'm not, I only quack and walk like one

" Are Jehovah's Witnesses a sect or a cult ?
Some define sect to mean a group that has broken away from an established religion. Others apply the term to a group that follows a particular human leader or teacher "____Reasoning Book page 202
.
Wake up people
Russell founded his own brand of religion because
" He simply could not accept the commonly understood teachings of the churches " ____Proclamers Book page 43
.
.
" They do not look to any human, but rather to Jesus Christ as thier leader "____Reasoning book page 202
.
False.
They look to a group of men that represent " One body " (singular) that governs
And disobeys Jesus command in ACTS 1:8 that says to be witnesses of him
In 1931, a new human leader called Rutherford took over. Rutherford said they would be Jehovah's Witnesses instead
.
"A cult is a religion that is unorthodox "___Reasoning Book page 202
.
No birthdays or holidays allowed, They Shun loved ones , No blood , Avoid the word GOOD LUCK
God Bless, the Holy Cross, Lucky Charm Cereal, and don't vote
If you were to ask the general population
they would most definitley say that the Jehovah's Witnesses are unorthodox
.
"Thier worship is a way of life not a ritual devotion "____Reasoning book page 202
.
False. Thier ritual devotions are forced into thier daily lives
Thursday night ritual
field service ritual
sunday ritual
Assemblies and conventions
.
" nor isolate themselves from the rest of society. They live and work in the midst of other people "____Reasoning book page 202
.
The Jehovah's Witness mantra " We keep separate from the world "
The Witness that work beside you, live beside you, and talk nicely to you
will not include you in thier social circle unless they are trynna recruit you
.
.
10 " any israelite or any alien living among them who eats any bloodi will set my face against that person who eats blood and will cut him off from his people.
12 therefore i say to the israelites, "none of you may eat blood, nor may an alien living among you eat blood.
15 'anyone, whether native-born or alien, who eats anything found dead or torn by wild animals must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be ceremonially unclean till evening; then he will be clean.

This is one thread well worth the time it took you to write
and for me to read

Thanks

i'm sure i read a thread here about the new congregation accounting procedures.
i ask because i handle the accounts in our cong and in our part of the world the new accounting system has just arrived whereby local congs do not have their own account any longer, but all funds outside of basic monthly costs is forwarded to an account controlled by the org.
this is causing huge confusion in our cong as we have to work out how much we need to keep back for monthly costs and the new idea is that you send all your extra cash to the org and if you need it back you can ask for it but we don't know how easy or hard it would be to do that.

"You more or less keep sending in the funds you had previously used for morgage payments .

.Wake up people
That would be against the law if a bank , savings and loan or credit union
forced you to make continued payments on a home or car
that would never belong to you

Are these Halls considered rentals to the congregations
that can end the lease at the end of the contract ?
or is this set up to milk the congregation indefinitely
