Jehovah's Witnesses - Where is Your Money Going?

by Sea Breeze in

after discouraging and in many instances prohibiting jw's from getting an education, like in computer graphics, film-making and design, the wt is employing these kinds of professionals and throwing vast sums of money at their new film-making adventures doubtless from all the properties they confiscated, sold that the local members paid for.

kim and mikey talk about this primarily starting at 13:15https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqafxmsjirk&ab_channel=kimmikey .

Wonder if the watchtower will participate in the Meta universe. With zoom they have got most of their followers up to par in immersing into the digital age. All that’s left is to create virtual field circus activities, along with the 2 weekly boasting sessions. Just imagine the surprise of mark Zuckerberg when he sees virtual carts all over his created meta verse.

Current Meeting Attendees

by blondie in

jw
friends

does anyone know what publication is being studied at the midweek meetings.

i used to know but it has flown out of my brain.

it is treating some of past issues that were once taught by the wts or have seen material that questions it.

WokenfromJWcult

Their midweek meetings seem to have more boasting than they had in the past. Today,s meetings would even blush the Pharisees.

Starting September 01, 2022, the Angels will help in the ministry work

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

2022 governing body update # 6. what exciting news david splane has for all jehovah's witnesses ( who for the last three years were spared the house-to-house preaching work ) '' that we'll return to the ministry september 01, 2022. just in time for our world wide campaign to start bible studies.

and, i'm sure the angels are excited too, because it will give them opportunities to help us with our ministry.''.

not only will the witnesses be rusty in their return to the field ministry, the angels in heaven have been sitting idle while the pandemic stopped the house-to-house ministry.

Since the angels are watching over the flock, the weather slogan of “when the thunder roars, go indoors”, can be changed by the GB to “when the thunder roars, keep knocking on doors”.

Blonde, mention of that drama brought to mind a drama done by evangelicals, that was just as shocking as the “Society’s “ drama. I saw this several years ago, but stands out for its shock value.

Do you believe that this life is all there is

by Fisherman in

the bible records resurrections and there is orher evidence besides that gives hope.

what do you think, is there enough evidence to believe in another life?.

Jehovah`s Witness Elders who were Business men in The Congregations I Attended.

by smiddy3 in

a number of topics have covered work experiences by members who have encountered crticism for having a full time job .in the last few congregations i had attended this was never an issue as elders had businesses they owned and employed brothers and sisters .. while i personally never worked for a jw, both my young sons did at one time or another and my wife did also .i have always worked full time in secular employment and have never been criticised for doing so .and to my knowledge nobody else ever had that experience.. in the first cong.i attended an po as they were called at the time was an insurance agent and his bro.

was an assistant po also worked with the same ins,agency.. other congs,i attended one elder was an owner of a cabinet making firm while about 3 other different elders were self employed builders who ran their own business and employed others to work for them .. at the same time a couple of ms servants had their own plastering business going on supporting these elders business.. so i`m just wondering whether this is just depending on where you are from in the world and what time period we are talking about.. the time i`m talking about was in the sixties and seventies and the area was in s.e.

I once met a brother who had 30 minute national infomercials in the 80,s and 90,s who made millions and lost millions. Later went on to buy an upscale winery, which I think he still operates today.

JW video i can't seem to find anywhere

by Benavidez in

i've been trying to find a video, but for the life of me don't see it anywhere on jw.org!

it's about a brother who finds some bad information about jws and has doubts but then comes to the conclusion to just trust jw.org and not the news or any other articles.

something about if you wanna find reliable information you have to go "right to the source".

WokenfromJWcult

Might have been on an assembly part, and not posted for all to see. That way they can use it again in a couple years and the aging flock will view it as new. Just my oponion.

How far do we get away from 1914

by PimoElder in

how far do we get away from 1914 before they have a new light and admit it was all wrong?.

they cling to the old theory of the 77 week prophecy from the wrong date that jerusalem was destroyed .

with the overlapping generations nonsense still we are getting too far away from 1914. what will they say if we get to the 2030s and they still cling to 1914?.

WokenfromJWcult

If anything, they would ,I think, be better off ditching their Blood doctrine first, mainly because many cult followers have died needlessly from this belief. 1914 is a doctrine that is strange when people first hear of it, but probably will not take your life, as the Blood belief most certainly has done.

My mind has become numb with anything the watchtower dreams up, just like commercials on tv, in one ear and out the other. Reminds me of a post years ago that said “the only new light you can get out of a watchtower magazine, is when you set it on fire”
