  Anyone get the feeling that the cult is really in trouble.

  by mickbobcat in

  so all the bs and hyperbole aside, to me it really looks like the cult is in trouble.

  shrinking member, selling halls.

  the move to televangelism is really strange to me.

  They are just fine and aren’t going anywhere

  it’s easier to be a witness now than anytime in history, almost mainstream

  You can wish it away all you want, they aren’t going anywhere anytime soon

  Drinking expensive drinks - seriously looked down upon as a JW

  by Anony Mous in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i remember when i was a jw, drinking a good wine or other liquor was looked down upon.

  it’s better to put that money towards the worldwide work donations i always got told.

  so the best thing i ever got was johnny walker red back then (johnny walker is cheap blend).

  Some congregations in hick towns can be this way but most are not

  i actually live in an area where good alcohol and fine food is appreciated. Dinners at families homes are usually indulgent. I like where I live

  where I grew up now that’s a different story. Everyone were cheapskates

  Yes we sing along it’s actually fun

  Laugh all you want zoom meetings are actually a real family bonding time at least in my house

  the kids all get along, we all sing too but we also relax, let kids watch Caleb & Sophia etc. most of the time they play around. It’s enjoyable, that’s all I care about

  KH's Still All Closed- How Bad is WT doing Financially?

  by OnTheWayOut in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  most churches are back to in-person worship.

  not jehovah's witnesses.

  is watchtower still managing to fleece the flocks as the sheeple no longer get literature, no longer go to the kh, no longer walk past the donation box?

  Are JWs Enjoying Not Having To Go To Meetings and House To House?

  since this pandemic, especially, are witnesses fine with never having to go to another meeting or assembly again?

  Nobody is afraid of elders or governing body, quit making shit up you sound like an idiot

  most jws are REALLY enjoying zoom, I know I am. Anyone with young kids freaking loves zoom

  Those without kids want to go back to “normal”

  honestly I think most actually want to get back to the KH but many enjoy talking as if the “end” will occur before that time

  Are Bethelites Buying and Preparing their own Food?

  by TakeOffTheCrown in

  samuel herd made the following statement at the 2015 annual meeting regarding the reduction of services at bethel.. we will be reducing personnel at bethel.

  some bethel family members will be invited to serve in the field.

  in addition to their regular work, bethel family members will be caring for many of the services that were previously provided by fellow bethelites.. .

  Hey I’m looking for the video that was posted of Samuel herd announcing all the cuts then ended with that hilarious mic drop as he exited the stage

  Anyone have a link to that?

  also looking for a much older video I believe about 1975 where the speaker, I believe a DO said “let me put my notes aside” and then began to pontificate about his thoughts on the end

  anyone remember that talk or have a link?

  but one i remember was a full on dyed in the wool believer how was a farmer.

  around 1975 he sold his farm moved his family to a very rural place and waited for the end to come.

  he ended up working for his brother in law hanging drywall.

  Testing For Transparency - An Honesty Check

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  please share any other yes/no questions that might fit with the following 10. also feel free to critique the 10 listed.. testing for transparency.

  there are some facts that jehovah's witnesses are reticent to divulge to new prospects.

  you may want to find out very early in your discussions if the witnesses you are studying with are open and truthful about their organization's doctrine and practices by asking them a series of sensitive (potentially embarrassing) questions about their personal beliefs.

  Is the governing body ever “wrong”?
