  Jehovah's Kingdom growth report for 2004

  by FDS in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  sitting in the hall the past week i noticed the annual report and being the avid reader i looked at the report for the usa which i found most interesting.

  1,019,696 faithful ministers of jehovah's kingdom spent 189,740,398 hours witnessing, conducted 519,648 bible studies with 0% growth!

  how much increase does one need to even have a .1% growth?

  they have sero growth in spite of revitalizing those who are very old and report 15 minutes a month.

  If you take this figure to the pubs in the USA ict could be that they are a number betwenn 50,000 and 100,000 pubs who report only 15 minutes a month

  so dont talk about sero growth, talk about decline, decline decline!!!

  if there would not be the 15 minute regulation you would see the road down the mountain.

  the blessing from above fails as the role as ngo has demonostrated who rides the beast in reality.

  the Lord will come back and cut the slave into pieces when he finds him beating the household of the Lord.

  I hope that some of the pieces ar worth to keep alive.

  wwhen you take a mortal rate of 1 % per year it will be in 4 years about a quarter million who died so it is netto about 600.000 that left the "truth".

  And you must add to the publishers the 15-minute regulation of old publishers, I guess it is mayebe another 10 % of the whole sum.

  So we can compare with the figures in 2000 where there was no 145 min regulation and those old pubs did not cout. that leads to the recognition that WT has lost about 1 million of publishers in real.

  They shaped the figures by the 15 minute activity and make the public known that they still are increasing.

  But the blessing from above does fail - surely because of the UN-NGO thing, the worldwide activity to become accepted and tax subventioned church.

  What WTS was in the early 70ies it is no more. They show engagement to survive in a world of discouragement.

  There are no figures to believe in 1914 and its generation is off. The real truth - Zecharaja chapter 7 and the devastation of Jerusalem 70 years before - in 587 b c - is not tought

  as then all the stuff of doctrine must be change. And the cream in the coffee is, that you may take your blood, saved by the cell-saver, take it out of the circuit and let it may be radiated beecause of cancer - then anfter hours you can take it again into your venes and it is no blood transfusion in the sight of WTS.

  But take your blodd before an operation store it and use it in case of danger - that is sin.

  Wash my fur but dont make me wet means the same.

  they should repent in sack and ashes. But they dont - like the leaders of Judah, Israel and Jerusalem - before they were destroyed.

  As long as they are going to sacrifice truth on the altars of the idols "descrete slave" and "unity" - they make all marching into one direction. Even if t is the way of the lemmings, wrong - while they burn those who act in regard to their own conscience while they recognize things as wrong, this club of Whisky-sneakers is acting in harmony with the great opposer: prosecuting and persecuting christians who are engaged to find the real answers. It is very arrogant to demand from christians to do what they want.

  We are not slaves of any organisation. we are christians who have dedicated their lifes to god. And the GB could give recommendments, but they should always been measured by their own meter.

  In old Babylon their stood on the wall mene tekel.

  The have their mene tekel too, and will pay a high price.

  Like the leaders of Israel (10 tribes) of Judah at times of Daniel and of Judah at the times of the apostles - they are corrupt and start apostacy at themselves. This is in accordance to the scripture that says that the end will not come before the apostacy starts.

  bring me a bucket, I need to vomit about that situation

  Argument from an elder on why to not leave the JWs...

  by undercover in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i got an interesting reply from an elder friend when i admitted that i had issues with the wts.

  i had listed the failed predictions, the changing doctrines and the mistakes made by the wts.. he came back with the examples of the israelites in the wilderness and under the various kings.

  the nation of israel was still god's people despite their hardheadedness and sins.

  I found some interesting answers here to that topic.

  Regarding my thinking to this theme I recognize:

  IN the past gods nations priests and king who were not loyal to Jehovah and who betrayed him got their penalty. 'And so file & Ranks who were loyal to their leaders. That took playe when Assyria took the 10 tribe kingdom of Israel, that took place when nabucco and Babylon took Judah and that took place, when Rome to Jerusalem. Always the leaders kille those who said the truth. The Bord does it too today. They set them on a heap of fire when they claim some people who cant accept certain behaviors as apostates.

  In fact I compare those disfellowshipped in case ob faith with those "rebels" of the catholic church who were sacrivfice of inquisition and died in the fire.

  The WTS is guilty in making itsself to be a god. I have now problem that the intense of the teaching is to honour the name of god and to proclaim his kingdom, an advantage less others do it the same.

  But I know that first comes the leaving of the faith - Apostacy - then the end. And that an end will come is surely correct as man shows that he is not able to keep the planet alive.

  Awake Moving To Monthly Publishing

  once a month means they got the awareness that mosts of the mags are stored in the flats of the dubs.

  worse tongues now say that less awake means more asleep .

  I think they are going down the Jordan - they distribute mags that nobody wants to read by dubs that are less motivated at times nobody is engaged for discussion and no donation is given for the prints.

  Where is the blessing? The figure of publishers was raised to a higher number by integrating the 15 minutes regulation 2 years ago, where the old people wer re-established as publishers.

  But the development still goes down as the fish starts stinking by the head.

  organized religion is lining out christianity. They sacrifice righteousness and truth on the altar of unity and they have great ideals for it: the pharisees of the time of the apostles. For unity they killed JC and so on.

  1 Thess. 5:21: The Forgotten Verse

  by Room 215 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it seems that the wt is distancing itself from what was once one of their favorite texts, ``make sure of all things;" they even published a handbook with that as its title.

  it now appears, however to have fallen into neglect/disuse as its message would appear to be an invitation to the internet and other sources of independent information.

  i haven't done a word search on recent publications, but i would bet that this text is invoked a lot less frequently than in the past.

  I think they stopped that book because therein they honored the Greber Bible regarding John 1:1. Johannes Greber who received this translation from the spirit world confirmes the same text understanding like the NWT.

  Already in the 50ies the WT explained that Greber is a medium. But his work was good enough to underline the WTS -philosophy.

  Perhaps this book also is rejected in case of the Raymond Franz happening where some others from the Bethel in the early 80ies were fired - like Ed Dunlap etc.

  So this book expresses the awareness of WTS to separate from maninds work in case of their own personal that was sent into desert. The reasoning book is in use now since many years, in spite the make sure book was never too much worse. Like the aid-book which had the same process in disappearing in the bookshelfs.

  chamaleon WTS is always active in shaping its presence, past and future
