  Kingdom Hall Alarm codes.

  by JEMIMAH in

  just back from renovating my holiday home in the south west of france.

  beats yorkshire anyday.... anyway thought i would share this little account with you.. as most are of you are aware, the alarm code for about 90% of kingdom halls is 1914 (nineteen fourteen).. i t seems though that for the last 8 or 9 quick builds or refurbs in the uk, the brother who installed the numbers into the alarm control panel used the numbers 1975 and explained the number as one nine seven five not the the easier version (ninteen seventy five).. trivial joke or honest mistake, either way this poor brother has been rumbled and has to to meet with 2 elders investigating on behalf of a body of elders to see whether an apostasy charge will be brought.. he is supposed to be meeting with them over the next few days.. .

  a very sad jem, who is sick of the whole elder abuse game.

  i was watching a video about wt and money and the "brother" refers to the "spirit directed organization.

  " he also says they use donations wisely and modestly.

Are the GB so deluded and therefore their followers? How does an organization claim be be spirit directed and not inspired by Holy Spirit at the same time? How is persuing endless lawsuits wise and modest use of donations? ( of course the R and F won't likely learn about the lawsuits as they have to obey these deluded leaders.)

  become a jw only if you can't cope with the real world.

  i believe i picked this up here but can't find the thread.

  i think it worth a repost.. “top ten reasons jehovah's witnesses can't cope with the real world.

  ..."why hard to break free" ....I just watched a video where a testing of people were done. They were given math problems and a faulty calculator. They were to compare their answers with the calculators. 33% went along with the faulty calculator. That same video mentioned 66% of children raised as JW leave but there is the 34% who stay in. Interesting video.

  saw this on a FB posting-something like this. JW info: indecisive? No worries. JW tell you how/what to think, feel, behave, dress and groom-see comment ....in the comment it said a good ex. could be found on the official JW site Dec 2023 update #8

  i read an interesting interview with billionaire warren buffet's sidekick, billionaire charlie munger.

  good read, this grandpa agrees 1000% with his advice.

  i wish i had learned earlier to realize almost everyone lies...(sometimes to themselves) but especially, all politicians and religious leaders.. what advice would you as a grandparent add?".

  " write your obituary".... I have thought of that and may actually do it. I have no children or grandchildren, but if I were to tell someone that I consider useful, it would be to listen, really listen to what someone is saying....even if in a joking matter. I believe what the Bible says about out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. Yes, people will endeavor to fool you with pretty words...that is why it is important to listen to what they may say in jest. EX: a man in front of his wife, supposablly in jest, was saying to his sister in law: when is your old man going to be gone and I will come over. She emplores the wife to "make him quit". The wife tells her husband to quit that sort of joke with her sister in law. BUT...it wasn't a joke. They were making plans under the wife's nose. I think this sort of thing could also apply towards things that are written or maybe even artwork.

  How my awakening began.

  about a month ago i started having a clear out of old clothes, books and bric a brac etc….. i don’t know what came over me but i decided to chuck out all my old jw literature because we literally have no more room.

  it started with magazines, then books, ministry literature and once i started, couldn’t stop.

  weird right?

  I find it interesting "the fog began to clear" after you discarded years of literature. I have heard that books of witchcraft have demons attached to them....whereas, I never considered WT literature to be witchcraft, it is supposed to be spiritual enlightenment. Well, it is obvious to many of us that God's spirit isn't behind the organization-so then, what spirit is? I have here the last JW Bible, but plan to throw it out. I would have already but it is the only printed Bible I have at this time in physical form. I don't feel good about reading it- which begs the question: is there a bad spirit attached to it? ....on another note, for years I never tossed anything printed by WT because it was what? sacred!! What fools they made of us all. So the thought occurs to me, maybe JW are under some sort of demonic spell and don't realize it. ( I know you atheist and those who don't have any regard for the Bible will scuff at my comment )

  just goes to show they knew all along they were over reaching and unduly force feeding the no beard theme. Now they are trying to cover their tracks and keep down any fallout by guilt tripping the brothers not to complain but go on supporting the org. I would love to see a massive walkout! Wouldn't that be a hoot it the pimo s could stage a walkout...all show up to the meeting and at schedule intermim, all walk out! Like at the end of the video when they play it. Double Dare those PIMO
