  So their excuse to build a media center by 2026 is that this is for the new world. So they’re setting a new end date now (sometime in the next 5 years).

  Not only that, but after the pictures we see in all the books, like the Revelation book, of meteors and burning cities, they believe they will have the Internet up and running in no time, without any telephone poles or roads or big buildings to speak of in any of the pictures.

  I mean, it just sounds more and more ridiculous these excuses. Are they going to retcon the Bethel complex they built in all these pictures of god overseeing the paradise, shouldn’t like their complex be shown on earth instead of the implied elder on the porch of some wood bungalow in a tropical environment?

  Question about Congregation accounts in ECUADOR 🇪🇨

  by suavojr in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  wondering if anyone here knows why local congregations in ecuador do not have accounts under the congregation’s name.

  i just found out they use the personal information of one of the elder’s 😳 wtf .

  what’s the legal reason for this?

  Sounds like someone (else) is fleecing the flock, the local congregation does not have a bank account under its legal name (the corporation that owns the deed and is owned by the WTBTS does, but not the legal entity that is the congregation and is owned by the elders) and they would only use this account for making cash deposits.

  It would definitely not be under the name of one of the elders, it would be something like “Kingdom Hall of <name of the area>” and require 2 signatures for withdrawals. The “Congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses <name of the area>” should not have any assets and at no point would they allow “Joe Elder” to be the congregation bank account.

  All other bank transactions, including savings and credit card donations is handled directly by the local branch office.
  

  I guess good for him, he’s probably creaming off a nice chunk before forwarding. As long as he can hide it from the others, I know it’s pretty simple to use your authority and subvert a younger MS to do this. Your CO must be laying into the donation thing pretty hard every time he comes though.

  GENDER PRONOUNS

  by JohnTron72 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  just to put it out there, the whole gender pronouns idea being pushed by the lgbtq+ minorities is just a way to try to hide the sin of homosexuality.

  if you can void people talking about your true sexual identity then it seems there is no sin anymore if two they or them of the same sex are together.

  example of the coverup: ("i don't identify as either gender"), so the kids i'm raising in a lesbian relationship need not speak of me as a mom or any other female term and we all don't have to feel any stigma attached to the true terms so, any shame we might feel is hidden anyway.

  Gender pronouns simply make everyone a victim. And your level of victim hood amongst the left is your status. If you’re not a normal, you’re a victim, so if you don’t have a reason to complain about your lot in life, make yourself a victim to get attention.

  Be crazy, I won’t hire anyone with a pronoun marker on their resume.

  I found a bunch the other day on a commercial real estate website. Simply filter by house of worship or church and then look for all the plain buildings without windows but with a massive overhang on the entrance.

  At least Matt Damon can get the Bethelite experience (he purchased a suite at DUMBO in Brooklyn)

  So much for Jebooger’s protection. The WTBTS has always been weird, a left wing evangelical group.

  Where to flee Covid mandates and restrictions?

  by Kosonen in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  at the moment there does not seem to be any place to flee to from covid mandates and restrictions.

  we are stuck like the first century christians in jerusalem.

  but jesus said when the disgusting thing would stand in the holy place, it was time to swiftly flee to the mountains.. will jehovah god open a path to security where we can be in safety?

  @joey jojo: If you think this is all temporary, you are grossly mistaken. Australia is still ticking up in cases and deaths, regardless of the lockdowns. All the lockdowns were implemented in September and October of 2020 and they didn't have any cases till July of 2021, yet they didn't lift the lockdowns. Instead, they intensified the lockdowns and since then cases are spiking again.

  This thing isn't going away, it's going to be a repetitive flu-like disease that kills a minority of the weak and elderly, just like the flu and pneumonia and cancer and heart disease does kill much more people on an annual basis.

  @rafe: Millions are dead BECAUSE the lockdowns, there is a massive spike every time lockdowns and mandates are initiated because they are counterproductive, there is plenty of scientific evidence for those facts. Instead we are promoting a vaccine during a pandemic, so the virus can evolve around the vaccines. At no point in history did we give vaccines during pandemics. You let the pandemic burn out and then vaccinate so it doesn't return.

  Given your age, it may be too late, but have you talked with a barrister about taking action personally against your abusers and the elders? That's often better than a big government investigation that basically ends up nowhere.

  Help needed - Did the GB receive Covid money?

  this is not a political post regarding the vax jab, (let's not go there) but i personally know many who were disturbed by the gb pushing it in the update #7. .

  it is odd as they never really get involved and always do the stupid "conscious" thing whenever they don't want to take responsibility.. then i saw this article - https://www.npr.org/sections/coronavirus-live-updates/2020/08/03/898753550/religious-groups-received-6-10-billion-in-covid-19-relief-funds-hope-for-more?t=1632597803079&fbclid=iwar0ly8k1fb3cdgknmmxs9aruz-wtex6sir9_uz2uxofkae4iyk7sm5r1ndu&t=1632598929611.

  there is a report with itemized churches and the amounts they were given.

  Note also that NY had its own PPP-style program which then caused Biden eventually to bail the state out from federal government funds. As such it is possible that there are funds the WTBTS procured under a different name or statute but not required to be disclosed under Federal requests.

  It's noted that the author cherrypicked only evangelical ministries and churches. It did not select for corporations that churches like JW's may use.

  You can find a more complete list here: http://ppprecipients.com/

  I don't know what the WTBTS could have one of their subsidiaries incorporated under, there are a lot of secretive organizations under WTBTS for these purposes.

  Why do Men just want to control each other, and have control over you.

  by pistolpete in

  1. social
  2. current

  it seems like the moment someone attains some type of power, whether it's money, political power, or religious power, their first agenda is ---to control others.. bill gates is a good example of this.

  another is george soros and michael bloomberg.

  and let's not forget all the politician and religious leaders like the governing body.

  @jwundubbed: it’s called a matriarchy. And it has been tried from Africa to China to Native Americans and European aristocracy. It never lasts, because women by and large aren’t interested in conquests and rule. It’s simple biology, women have at most from 15-45 to reproduce, but typically between 21 and 30 is the safest period to attract a mate and reproduce, less than 1/3-1/10th of an average human lifespan.

  Men can reproduce from puberty until they die, so the biological pressures aren’t the same. Then there is the fact that human babies are helpless for ~10-15 years. That cuts out the prime period of human life, the primary periods of life where you are smart and powerful enough to actually conquer and rule for females and dedicates it to reproduction. And you can choose as a female to not reproduce and instead rule, but that leaves no room for an heir, so within 1-3 generations, this ends.
