  Recently appointed Elder and his Regular pioneer wife wake up in 10 minutes and walk away.

  i been seeing several experiences by jws who are waking up very quickly.

  not years, not months, not even days-----but minutes.

  it seems that all the hypocrisy of the watchtower is becoming more obvious to the members.

  Stories like this one are playing out through out JW congregations worldwide. The JW leadership feel the pinch. It's not just 'onesies' that are waking up...couples and entire families have grown damn tired of this cult's hypocritical track record.

  I personally just became aware of an older couple in a neighboring congregation who have rekindled relationships with disfellowshipped children after many years of shunning them. This older couple (a former elder himself) has basically told the elders & the congregation they're members of to mind their own damn business and it's causing a scene among the JW locals.

  so you all probably heard that the awake magazine is back, .

  https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/?contentlanguagefilter=en&pubfilter=g&yearfilter=.

  and one of my jw relatives said they were told by some elders that meetings and field service will resume before the end of the year.. they said this covid virus was a test, like when the romans breached jerusalem and retreated, only to come back later and sack jerusalem.

  JWTom: "our congregation is probably 70% no camera and actually about 80% never comment unless they have a meeting part, are reading or giving a prayer."

  The congregation I visit has approximately 150 in attendance with about 80 zoom frames...close to 60% of the zoom video frames are turned-off.

  "They said this Covid Virus was a test, like when..."

  Yah...and the Spanish Flu Pandemic of 1918 was just a test as well! :) :) :)

  I remember the WT days when Tracts were used on special campaign offers. Seems to me that the Awake Magazine is going to take on the form of a Tract in future days...instead of getting rid of the Awake altogether...it's going to be demoted/relegated to Tract status.🤣🤣🤣

  DISFELLOWSHIPPING, How bad is it really?

  by pistolpete in

  i found this experience on reddit today.

  disfellowshipping never really bothered me.

  i always thought it was just another way of getting rid of members that weren't welcome anymore.. but i've changed my mind.

  So telling that there are no little children

  by eyeslice in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  watching in on my wife's zoom meeting last night, there was an item about discipline is love.

  they played a 'caleb' animated cartoon and then the instructions were 'if possible, ask selected young children' several questions.. it seems however, that there are no children in my wife's current congregation so the questions were all answered by retired brothers and sisters.

  the congregation mainly consists of elderly people (like us) and the few of childbearing age seem not interested in having children.

  Two things are certain..JW rank & file membership numbers will continue to drop & JW partakers' numbers will continue to climb...this outcome is the complete opposite of what the 8 clowns at the top of this cult hope for...Amen!
