The claim that new direction comes from Jehovah is incredible, how can these guys sleep at night?

July 2018 WT points
by The Fall Guy inpage 16, par.
18 carefully follow the latest directions.. do we faithfully follow the latest directions that jehovah has given us?
if so, we will not rely on always doing things the way we have done them in the past.

Lloyd’s new book
by jwfacts ini see there has already been discussion over lloyd’s new book how to leave the jehovah's witnesses.
this includes discussion around his personality, motives and financial gains.
i have written a foreword for this book, because it is an important topic that has not been covered in such a complete format before.

Did you get the chance to read his book before you agreed to write a forward in his book?
I believe he is using you to add more credibility to his book. Without a question that is your choice and your personal judgment call to make.
His book, being titled "How to leave the Jehovah's Witnesses" will, I imagine, include his own experience, possibly including what he did right and what he got wrong.
Why am I concerned? Lloyd uploaded a Youtube video before he attended his final JC and he states"I've already decided that I'm not going to be recording it ... and the reason why I'm not going to be recording it is because I don't want anything to hide... do with that information what you will but don't go out of your way to turn my family against me, I'm talking about my wife's parents who we live with, who are already very traumatized by whats been happening we, they rely on us, they rely on us to look after them and I won't have my ability to care for them compromised by these men going above and beyond what's written in the literature and coercing my in laws to shun us even though we live under the same roof. So I have a few things to say to them, in fact the only reason, the only reason I'm going to a Judicial Committee is because I need to communicate to them that just as they have the ability to make MY life a misery, I have some degree of ability to make life difficult for Jehovah's Witnesses in Croatia. I, I do believe that. I don't need to do it, I won't do it if there can be some agreement that my parents in law will be left alone. Some would say it's a threat. I'm the one being threatened here, I'm the one being threatened with shunning and two can play that game. So I just wanted to let you all know what's going on and thanks for watching."
In his own words 'make of this what you will' and I do wonder what is behind all of this. I can't see how he could write a book on how to leave the JWs without going into detail about what was going on here so it will be interesting to read what he has to say. -

Brochure: Religious and Ethical Position on Medical Therapy and Related Matters
by Listener inhere's a link to jw org to a brochure that can be downloaded that summarizes some of the doctrinal positions of the organization.
it was produced in 2012.it provides a good summary of what blood products are acceptable and those that are not.
in so doing, it also makes them look like fools since there is no basis for their views.

New Store called Best Life Gifts

There is so much nonsense they're trying to sell to gullible JWs. Just one example is a tote with "just around the corner" written on it and pretty flowers. I'd link to it but don't feel inclined.
Who cares if there was a hostile takeover or not, both businesses should be ashamed of themselves.

Franklin30 since you are able to clear up the rumour about Ministry Ideaz and the sale of their shop I am wondering what you can tell us regarding Ministry Ideaz and Gerrit Losch.
I have read that the owner of Ministry Ideaz paid for him and his wife to visit his family in Equador. Could you advise what you know regarding this matter?
Also, how much does Ministry Ideaz pay it's employees in Equidor?

Thanks for having the courage to share your stories. This may even impact your previous JW friends and acquaintances, who now know more of the facts behind you leaving.

You're spot on with this Sparrowdown. These businesses are leeches on an already ugly Watchtower.

If I turn the picture upside down, I can see the profile of a dog. His eye is towards the top and his nose is near the guys left hand. If it's just a fire then the bottom half of the fire is not normal.

Memorial.. To go or not to go
by Emily1987 inso, as some of you will know myself and my husband are in the process of fading.

A loving JW mother would be asking you to come because she's doing it with you in mind, not for herself. So if you decide not to go it would be nice if you could tell her that you'd like to spend the day with her doing whatever she'd like.
