Thanks for the research Corney.
The current bunch of GB members should be very embarrassed with their oversight of the financial management of the Organization.

Your symptoms don't sound good at all Zeb and you should get yourself checked out.
It's not easy to find a Doctor open today but you can get a home visit. At the very least, you could initially call Healthdirect on 1800 022 222. -

Jehovah's Witnesses... Who sent the Star of Bethlehem?
by JW Answers injehovah's witnesses... who sent the star of bethlehem?.
the watchtower teach their followers that the star of bethlehem was sent by non other than satan... however as we take a look at the scriptures by comparing spiritual things with spiritual we begin to see that the star of bethlehem was not sent by satan, but used for the glory of god.a seasonal message to end the year.. watch now here :.

Did Satan have the power to move stars in any direction he wanted in the first century but doesn't do it today?

towards the end he talks about the new arrangements with the cutbacks.for breakfast if you had served a certain amount of time at bethel or were old enough you could choose whether you wanted to attend breakfast/morning worship or not.
first year bethels were made to attend to ensure they were watching the morning worship.

An ex Bethelite has made a video about the food that was provided at HQ's.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXBE9hAcqXUTowards the end he talks about the new arrangements with the cutbacks.
For breakfast if you had served a certain amount of time at Bethel or were old enough you could choose whether you wanted to attend breakfast/morning worship or not. First year Bethels were made to attend to ensure they were watching the morning worship. For the rest they provided a pantry where you could get food for free and was laden, paradise style, with plenty of food. Imagine being able to have sausages, eggs and bacon every morning, not that you would but it would be very tempting.
The Youtuber said there was so much food available it was possible to invite your congregation over for a BBQ and feed them on the Watchtower's dime.
There is no food served at all on Saturdays and Sundays.
Lunch is served, cafeteria style for most of the Bethelites except for the Governing Body and other 'heavies' who are waited on. So much for wanting special attention or being humble. They really are low when they have directed others to serve themselves and not others in the same room. Why wait 'til you die and go to heaven to be a King when you can order to be treated like one now. -

Surely the fact that the Watchtower said it will invoke the statue of limitations came as no surprise? The Watchtower will use anything within their means even if they have to contradict themselves.

Fast food delivery service?
by The Fall Guy inafter seeing this, i think i'll just go and collect it myself!.
watch the video in the article - and imagine that it was you who was waiting for this food.. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-46522548.

I have heard that some restaurants will tip delivery guys by way of food which is a good way to discourage them from doing this and showing their appreciation in anticipation of doing a timely job of delivering.

This Is It?
by Nevuela ini can't say much out of fear of getting caught, but i overheard a jw i know on the phone with a friend talking about "how close we are to the end.
" yeah, yeah, i know.
we've been on the brink of armageddon for well over a century, but what struck me about this particular instance was what she said next.

Thanks Nathan, I remember reading about that just the other day.
They really love to stir up their followers, almost into a frenzy at times. It keeps them excited and with the feeling that the FDS is providing them with important information.
