  ..........make a phone call.📞.

  yes, that’s what the multi billion dollar corporation, watchtower, claimed they did in the 2019 convention.. devastating mudslides in rural myanmar left thousands of people cut off from food, water and medicine, many of them witnesses.. watchtowers solution?

  fly in a helicopter of medics and engineers?

  i watched this convention video and do not recognize this religion any longer.

  there are attendants singing and dancing in grass fields.

  later, you see sisters holding up this silly sign that makes me laugh.

  I didn't realize Atlanta was so beautiful.

  It's still amusing to see huge screens with the Governing Body being shown on them, up in the sky.

  Miscellaneous highlights from 10/2019 WT

  okay sorry, just a few more things that grabbed me in this issue:.

  the magazine starts with an article dedicated to the 100th anniversary of that all important year on which the gb's authority hangs, 1919. the article ends with several rapid fire assertions:.

  by the end of 1919, jehovah’s peoplewere reorganized and energized.

  We also need to avoid such organizations as youth
  camps or recreational facilities that have ties to false re-
  ligion.

  
  Somehow that excludes charity shops and hospitals run by churches.

  INSANE last days speculation in 10/2019 WT

  by neat blue dog in

  the october 2019 study edition, speaking of the last days after the governments destroy all religion except jws:.

  at some point, the people whose re-ligions were destroyed may resent thefact that jehovah’s witnesses keep prac-ticing their religion.

  we can only imag-ine the uproar that this might create, in-cluding on social media.

  It is a worry. Even more so when they elevate the importance of their own words to that of the Bible itself.
  
  GB member Kenneth Cook finally gave his first monthly broadcast, after nearly a year and a half. Watching him, it's understandable why it's taken so long and he's still not ready.
  
  This is what he said
  
  

  "Do not go beyond the things that are written" This refers primarily to the things written in God's word. (1 Cor.) By extension, the principle also applies to the scriptural direction that we receive from our publications. When asked for advise, we would never want to impose our own opinion or simply give an answer of the top of our head. Rather, we want to direct our attention to the counsel found in the Bible and Bible based publications."

  This is from an organization that also teaches that the trumpet blowing mentioned in Revelation, started at their 1922 Convention at Cedar Point.

  OCT 2019 Watchtower - Survival dependant on loyalty to JW Leaders

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  there is so much wrong with the newly released october, 2019 but that's not unusual.

  what stands out is there statement claiming that survival through armageddon depends on loyalty to those 'taking the lead'.

  since they claim there will be a point during the gt that they (the gb) won't be physically around, jws must still be loyal to jw leaders.. whats interesting in this article is that they make it clear that they, the governing body are going to take part, from heaven, in the war of armageddon.

  Brighton, I guess that's when they would say "we must wait on Jehovah" for the answers.

  study watchtower october 2019, page 12, par.

  17 - "a true christian must make sure that his secular employment has nothing to do with babylon the great.

  for example, he would not be an employee of a church.

  Too bad for the safety of others if a church needs some urgent electrical, plumbing or structural work and the only builders, plumbers or electricians in town are JWs.

  You dare not risk having your photo taken and published in the local paper for helping out in some disaster.

  Downtowner -

  Don't forget the Helpers to the Governing Body can be of the other sheep. So they are probably being "groomed" to take over the leadership once there are no more GB left. 😒

  True and this appears to be a carrot the GB is holding out to them as well as giving them more importance.

  But in so doing the GB have appointed them into a position that doesn't exist in the bible and they are also claiming that they will provide God given direction suggesting it will be something beyond their current knowledge.

  -------

  There's also a picture in this magazine of Jesus coming with the Angels and 144,000 to destroy the wicked policemen who are about to shoot at the JWs. The JWs are all dressed in meeting clothes.

  iwantoutnow, yes, absolutely but this is the garbage they are feeding their followers.

  The same Watchtower also states that they are now living in the last of the 'last days' and they know that for sure because they are now further away from 1914 than ever.
