  Having this report published will help somewhat getting over the colossal disappointment of the Montana reversal early this month.

  for many years the government of mexico did not allow religious organizations to own property.

  any property used by a religious organization was confiscated by the government.

  this law changed in the mid 1990's.

  For many years the Government of Mexico did not allow religious organizations to own property. Any property used by a religious organization was confiscated by the government. This law changed in the mid 1990's. The 95 Yearbook briefly mentions this.

  Because of this law, the Governing Body had instructed the branch in Mexico that they be registered as a "cultural society" and NOT A RELIGION. The congregations were called companies. Singing, praying at meetings and using the bible at the door to to ministry was NOT ALLOWED BY THE GOVERNING BODY! It was not the Mexican government that banned those activities, it was the Governing Body as they knew that if they sang, prayed and used the bible in the ministry the property would belong to the government as a result of being a religious institution.

  The point I'm making is this:

  01.) The Governing Body has for many years lied to governments and looks for loopholes in order to protect their a$$ets.

  02.) They are willing to sacrifice prayers, singing to God and using the bible in order to protect their assets. How can they have the nerve to tell rank and file members to be courageous and honest when they will sell out their worship of god?

  03.) The Governing body thinks the members are stupid and will not catch on to what their doing. Even to this day, many JW's in Mexico claim it was Satan and his persecution for the reason why they couldn't sing or pray or call themselves a religion. They don't realize that all those activities were indeed allowed but the Governing Body preferred to protect their a$$ets instead of worshipping god and being registered properly as a religion instead of a cultural society.

  Lying to the public, authorities, courts and even their own members has become a common practice for the JW cult leaders.

  It's articles like these that create an abusive atmosphere in the JW cult. Instead of telling people to get rid of toxic friends or associates, they tell the cult members to forgive and allow yourself to be abused and humiliated again and again.

  I knew an elder who would borrow money from half the congregation and not pay it back.This same elder would take money upfront for home repairs and not do the work. He knew that no one would make a problem for him as the WT articles constantly talk about respecting elders and forgiving your brothers otherwise God will reject you.

  In the real world you take these lowlife freeloaders to court and you cut them off from your social circle. You can't do that in the JW cult as God will not love you for doing so.

  However, if any publisher would dare talk about the Governing Body or the elders, all hell breaks loose and you are brought to justice faster than a NY second. It seems the Governing Body and elders have different standards of forgiveness. They are not required to forgive and allow themselves to be wronged.

  New NWT deception at Genesis 8:22 to indicate earth remains forever.

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i could not find mention of this before.

  i was reading genesis 8:22 in the niv and was surprised i had never noticed that this verse gives the impression that the earth will not remain forever.

  genesis 8:22 stated by god after the flood, when promising to never again destroy all living creatures.. as long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease.

  This is just one of many contradictions found in the bible.

  Either God didn't do a good job overseeing the writing of the bible or it was invented by mere men.

  amber gives a superb talk here.

  i couldn't help but contrast her delivery - fluent , articulate , without any notes - not even a rostrum or podium to hide behind - with the numerous talks and items i heard when i was a jw.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7wfpaqcqcw.

  i am reading her book " leaving the witness " just now - it is superb - i just can't put it down.

  Amber is sweet, smart, well spoken and so intelligent. I'll be ordering her book today.

  Amber proves that "apostates" are not evil, bitter, lying, hateful and mentally diseased people that the Governing Body wants their followers to beleive.

  I had read her experience about her waking up from the JW cult while serving in China somewhere online years ago. Very impressive experience. Can't wait to read her book!

  I'm very glad she's gotten alot of media attention as this brings awareness of the evils of the JW cult.

  How can a building dedicated to God, be sold?

  by krismalone in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i was just wondering this morning about all the kingdom halls and branches being sold to "babylon the great" and other businesses.

  every single kingdom hall and bethel branch that has been sold was "dedicated to jehovah" by the watchtower corporation.

  a special meeting with a guest speaker gives a talk and then offers a prayer dedicating the building to yhwh.

A special meeting with a guest speaker gives a talk and then offers a prayer dedicating the building to YHWH.

  Are those buildings that were dedicated and later sold still dedicated to YHWH?

  If a building or any property for that matter is given to someone, isn't disrespectful and illegal to just sell it out from under them and reap the profits?

  What about Ananias and Saphira who verbally said they dedicated funds to God yet they kept a portion for themselves and God killed them?

  The Watchtower makes a big show about dedicating a building for God yet they sell those same buildings to build themselves a 5 star resort in Warwick and live very comfortably. Are they committing the same sin as Ananias and Saphira?

  Maybe I'm being too philosophical and just blowing smoke. It just doesn't make sense.

  Any comments that would help me to adjust my thinking to be in harmony with gods channel of communication would be greatly appreciated. (Sarcasm).

  The Governing Body lives a modest, humble life except for:

  01.) The live in a 5 star resort

  02.) Security 24/7 at their resort

  03.) Free healthcare

  04.) 2 months paid vacation per year

  05.) 1st class travel all over the world.

  06.) Tax free green handshakes

  07.) Personal expense account.

  08.) Unlimited meals

  09.) Free legal services

  10.) Free labor to build their empire

  11.) Swimming pool, sauna, gym, basketball court at their resort.

  12.) Free housekeeping, dry cleaning and laundry service.

  13.) Their own T.V. show where they remind 8.5 million people how awesome they are and how they should be obeyed as if they would obey Christ himself.

  Being a cult leader is a hard job but the Governing body has humbly accepted this self sacrificing lifestyle in order to serve their brothers!

  This circle or diagram shows the title applied to YHWH in the O.T. and across it you can see the same title applied to Jesus in the N.T.

  This was prepared by the late Bill Cetnar who worked in Brooklyn Headquarters during the 50's (The service department). He woke up with his wife Joan and became an activist.
