SadElder...exactly...if he has yet to become judge for separating the sheep and goats, how could he have inspected the religions and appoint the JW as faithful slave? Wouldn't you have to have been judging to do that? ( of course, most on here know it's bogus anyway )

Are You Ready for the Most Important Day of the Year?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inluke 22:14 so when the hour came, he reclined at the table along with the apostles.
and he said to them: “i have greatly desired to eat this passover with you before i suffer; 16 for i tell you, i will not eat it again until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of god.” 17 and accepting a cup, he gave thanks and said: “take this and pass it from one to the other among yourselves, 18 for i tell you, from now on, i will not drink again from the product of the vine until the kingdom of god comes.”.
19 also, he took a loaf, gave thanks, broke it, and gave it to them, saying: “this means my body, which is to be given in your behalf.

rules and regulations- Matt 26:28 says forgiveness of sins for the Many....not just 144000 who are said to be corulers in the kingdom. The covenant for the kingdom was a separate covenant. Jw comingle the two so as to bolster their authority and lord it over the r and f.

they cherry pick scripture to support their lies. Cross reference to Matt 26:28 28 This is my blood of the[a] covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. /// poured out for the many for forgiveness of sins. ( not about choosing a ruling heavenly class )

Elders testing some promising men by talking like an apostate?
by Person incouple years ago as a promising ms i had some weird conversations with two young elders.

If I get your drift, do you think they are just acting so as to entrap you? The thought I had is, if you think that, turn the tables and say I am going to have to report you to the other elders for apostasy. lol I do know elders don't hesitate to set you up for a fall-loving shepards that they are. -

Hotels for convention
by ElderBerry ina department in bethel wants to try to make money from regional conventions by asking local hotels if they will give a special rate and a coupon code to give to jws.. .
they should just keep it simple and not be greedy for dishonest gain.. .
this year some convention sites the hotels said no thank you i think the jws are going to book with us anyway.

I found this article: https://www.hotelmanagement.net/operate/paying-intermediaries-analysis-hotel-commissions
Intermediaries do make commissions so I am assuming the JW qualify based upon how I read it.

We were always told to support the rooming list as the best prices had been negotiated for us. This discussion suggests that the r and f are being lied to, but rather, it is the best deal for the org to make money. If this is the case, the r and f need to be told! So PIMOs tell it out! It was always a hardship to travel and stay in motels. ( and a struggle to get to the rooming list when it was posted because everyone wanted first shot at the best or cheapest places.) Again, I hope someone posts more info about how the rooming is actually managed if they know.

If I understand this posting correctly, instead of booking for better rates for the witnesses, they are getting commissions...or are they getting better rates and commissions? Anyone with any personal knowledge in this area. I do know that they hold in reserve some close rooms ( we ended up in one one year ) it was a room we could not have rented without a connection. too long ago to remember the details...I just remember thinking it was unfair.

The Meaning of ETC
by titch infolks: i don't mean to be a "forum grammar policeman", but there is something that i've noticed a few times.
i've noticed that a few---not all---but some, members of the forum who use the abbreviation "ect" when they want to use the abbreviation of "etc.
" for your education today, the term "etc" is the abbreviation for the latin term "et cetera.

I think it is more typo than not knowing how to actually print it out. I often see where I have crossed letters or left off letters.

the 144,000 are "swingers"
by enoughisenough inif you go to the official jw website and look up wt 1957 5/1 pages274-275 you will see the jw teaching.
from paragraph 5:.." paul identifies jehovah's wife as his invisible universal organization.
the mother of christ and of his joint heirs.

all of this non-sense, mentally gymnastic manipulation of scripture to convince the r and f that JW is God's earthly organization/mother so the R and F willl be obedient to 'mother". I don't recall ever reading of how it all came about until I started questioning "God's earthly organization" and "mother" yesterday and came upon the 1957 WT. Truthlover123-yes, if you understand it right Jesus marries his own mother. God's wife is not only Jesus but the other "sons" destined to heaven. So God is married to his Sons who are also Christ bride. It makes you wonder who thought up this scenario to start with... not anyone who would worship a God of order and not disorder....what made me question the God's earthly organization and mother to start with was a statement made by Robert King-to which I questioned him about it and the bottom line so far from him is that I don't know very much.
