Seems so.
Can’t see how you can have the latter if you subscribe to the former.

18Hailstones (2)
by NotFormer inwith the change to reporting field service and now allowing people to repent during the gt, presumably up until armageddon, i'm assuming that the "hailstones" message is now permanently on hold.
can someone explain this to me; am i understanding this right?.

Vanderhoven7 - “No reason to commit to an organization until they actually produced factual evidence of being right.”
Jeezus, it’s like they want the fakers, faders, and fence-sitters to fuck off.

Vanderhoven7 - “…The real reason for the reports were for accountability and proof of Jehovah blessing the organization using those statistics…”
Not to mention keeping a Mississippi-sized paper trail of “charitable activities” for tax-exemption if they were ever audited by the IRS.

Thought on “0 hours” reporting
by FFGhost inso everyone knows the “big news” of this past weekend, no more reporting of hours, placements, return visits, etc.
beginning november 1, jws just tick a box indicating whether they “shared in any form of the ministry during the month”.. so there was a brief comment by a redditor that seems like a brief joke “throwaway comment” but after thinking about it….why not?.
the idea is, what is “any form of the ministry”?

Funny…
…I’d always assumed they’d try and spin any kind of exodus from the WTS as fulfillment of the “greater number cooling off” prophecy (and therefore, further proof they’re right, of course).

Anybody who suggests elders don’t have any authority is either naive or full of shit.

NotFormer - “Is there there such a thing as a legal firm that is too moral to take on certain cases?”
Probably not.
But I think an argument could be made that having less-than-ideal clients could get bad for business.

This answers the question if the organization was going to go more Hardline or mainstream.
by nowwhat? inlooks like we can expect a kinder, gentler jehovah and jesus during the great tribulation.
the door will not be closed to all non jws at the start of the tribulation.
but will have time to repent after false religion is destroyed.

Hmph.
I’ll say this…
…if they really wanted to know who actually wanted (or needed) to be a Jehovah’s Witness no matter what…
…this’d be a pretty effective way of finding out.

So, you’re saying that because they’re still convinced that they’re “God’s Exclusive Earthly Organization”, they think they’ll (somehow) successfully navigate this particular sea change?
And then…
…what?
Tighten the screws again?

If this is legit, it doesn’t make any sense.
The Plain Truth guys tried mainstreaming, fractured into a million pieces, and nobody even remembers them or Herbert Armstrong anymore.
Why would they risk it?
