I’ve been convinced for some time that the Gibbering Buffoons commanded expansion of JWdom at a rapid pace which was not financially possible to maintain, and hence became indebted.

But the Buffoons believed that Jehoober was going to wisk them to heaven imminently and their creditors would get destroyed, so no need to worry, keep spending and expanding.

When 2008 hit, their creditors called on them and they could not pay, the property that was used for collateral was forced sale.

25 Columbia and surrounding.

But the financial wound was much deeper and spending was still quite brisk. Now everything is for sale.

What I recently saw happen nearby to a set of congregations who share a hall, how the watchtower ruthlessly went after a sale in a cash grab, without any shame, tells me there’s a desperate need for cash.

The devils in the details.

Do old time present day active JW`s genuinely believe in overlapping generations ?

by smiddy3 in

for the life of me i can not come to terms with old timers in the "truth" who could swallow this interpretation of scripture about an overlapping generation .. when jesus spoke about "this generation" .

are their any real bible students among younger ones any more ?.

here are 3 bible scriptures that confirm a generation is approximately 40- 50 years long give or take a few years .. 1. matt:1 :17 abraham born 2016-18 bc jesus born 2 bc approx.

Ask a dub, “Has the generation of 1914 passed away”?

Watch them lock up. It’s amusing...

There will definitely be “reproach on the name of Jehovah”, on a grand scale. But not because of the little children who have been raped by Watchtower.

No, the reproach will come because they who have taken this name upon themselves have disobeyed Caesar, hid crimes, threatened victims.

Jehovahs Witnesses and their invention of a God based on some catholic monks BS are going to get it. Every drop they deserve.

Watchtower finally figured it out, that more than half the crap they print, goes straight into the trash... and at the hands of the faithful no less.

Then there’s the PIMOs who take another chunk and pitch it. I know I do.

There was a talk once and the congregation was told that reporting one’s literature placements faithfully each month was important because the literature servant uses this information when ordering more literature.

Ha. At the time I was the literature servant. There has never been any information from slips given the literature servant. What lies.

I once had a service meeting part, and this was the first time I ever got any of the data from slips, but it was for a part that had an outline. As requested, I demonstrated to the congregation that the stats demonstrate half, a full half, of what is taken from the counters never got placed.

So much for watchtower boastings.

Instead of “overlapping generation”, it could have been “immortal soul generation” or even “trinity generation”, the dubs would all give it the nod.

Mt 24:45 says they must.

Kingdom Hall Sell-Offs - 2 Defunct Phrases Now

by The Searcher in

1) when a newly built k.h.

is dedicated, the sheep are told that the building "will be a great witness for jehovah.

the opposite must now be true - when they get rid of it to accumulate cash, they must now be "un-witnessing for jehovah.".

A local elder here recently was mouthing off of “Jehovah’s blessings” in selling halls. And he demonstrated his eagerness that the selling team come here soon.

Not a few years back, they bragged the opposite, that Jehover was blessing the work through building halls.

It demonstrates how unthinking JWs really are.

Fulfillment of Scripture

Mt. 24:48

48 “But if ever that evil slave says in his heart, ‘My master is delaying,’ 49 and he starts to beat his fellow slaves and to eat and drink with the confirmed drunkards,

We have know for some time that they “beat” their fellow JWs, but now we see the whole.

Some have suggested that the money Tony was spending was his own.

Really?

Jehovah’s Witnesses don’t have any money. Everything they have is dedicated to the organization. This was sworn to at baptism.

That’s why the Sophia video tells children to give their ice cream money to the bOrg.

If JWs have money in their control and power to spend it, then they must spend only on necessities, nothing other than food or shelter. No luxury.

So, Tony the juicer had spending power beyond necessities and he used it for self serving purposes.

These funds should have been given to the bOrg.

He should be shoving it in the box according to the governing body so that Tony is betraying all of those principles.

To Rank & File JW's:

by The Fall Guy in

web site, it says this: on the night before he died, jesus told his followers to commemorate his death.

he said: “keep doing this in remembrance of me.” - luke 22:19. according to the wtbts/jw's, jesus had two distinct groups of followers with entirely different "hopes" – the “little flock” and the “other sheep.” .

exactly which group was instructed to commemorate his death by re-enacting the eating & drinking of the bread and wine - and to “keep doing it?” .

The Gibberish Buffoons need no other proof that everyone should attend this non-event except this:

Matthew 24:45 we said so.

1 Corinthians 5:13 we will ruin your family
