  Bethel Economy

  revelation 6:6 kjv.

  6 and i heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, a measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.. this prophecy starts to be true in south europe bethels..... according to our sources, bethel families have been asked to reduce their food allowance and even been informed that monthly contribution might not be paid.. meantime, one of these branches is sending millions of € every year as donation to other wt structures, not to mention the 7 digit number on their bank account.

  bethel members are not blind ;).

  They're rebelling against the organization SP74bb, it can't end well. Maybe the organization is just keeping them pacified for the time being so that it can send them their marching orders when the org. has made other arrangements and doesn't need them any more.
  
  If the Spain Bethel family views this as a win then they may be in for bigger shocks.

  ACTION ALERT: PA Survivors of child sex abuse, we need you to call PA Attorney General’s Office 1-888-538-8541

  by awareness in

  last april, the pa attorney general’s office established a toll-free phone number for survivors of child sex abuse (who were pa residents, or were abused by someone in pa) to call if they wanted to file a report of being sexually abused or molested as a child under 18 no matter how long ago the abuse happened or no matter who committed the abuse.. .

  the ag’s office is asking victims from all the places/institutions and all the alleged criminals that have literally gotten away with soul murder.

  hopefully, the ag’s office will be able to take further steps to expose the criminals and the criminal institutions that aided and abetted the perps.. .

  Awareness - While your specific abuse may have happened so long ago that there is no criminal or civil charges you can file, by your identifying perps and complicit institutions now, other victims may gain the courage to come forward once they realize they were not the only one abused by their perp.

  I don't understand how other victims would get to know that they were not the only one abused by a particular perp. simply by making a report to the PA's Attorney General's office. Particularly since the perp. will not be charged for anything.

  Sound like you were very lucky Prom. Have your Elders been to the latest convention? They talk about 12 months in the shunning saga.

  Zoos you're not the only one. When I read that the attack was from driving a truck through a crowd, I was speechless.

  This is so horrible, chilling and possibly a game changer. We don't want the terrorists to win but people have to feel safe.

  Lifesnotover, I am sorry to hear that you are in a difficult position at the moment. Although your posts show some signs of depression I wouldn't call it that, it's more like a situation where you are in a rut and trying to figure how to get out.
  
  That's the good thing about your posts and you are obviously doing a lot of reflection. That's why our emotions go up and down, we just have to be care not to let things swallow us up when we are in a down.
  
  I think it's awful that your husband calls you an apostate witch, being called an apostate is bad enough but a witch is really bad and is a reflection of his own problems. Try and rise above him and become impervious to his bad mouthing.
  
  You will find yourself in a better place if you keep searching for a solution, that's really great and the best thing that you can do for yourself.

  the organization never ceases to amaze.you've got to see this video for yourself so i won't say much about it.

  i wonder if this practice has been endorsed and sanctioned by the governing body and if we will see more of it in the future.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbuxbx1ktci.

  Redvip2000, that is the way I see it.

  It would appear to be done for the perceived protection of the r&f, of course there is nothing that they are protecting them against.

  For an outsider looking at this type of display it must look weird.

  as the title says--i'm out of here for good.. the site is full of atheists, communists, 7th day adventists, creationists, believers, deceivers, receivers, football supporters,.

  dodgy types, cantleave---and assorted wankers.. so no place for me--because i'm none of the above so dont fit in.

  so--this is goodbye forever my friends--its been almost average knowing you.
