  Bible study

  by GregT in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i used to attend the meetings and was baptized about 30 years ago but i haven't gone to the meetings or associated with any one i new from the congregation for around 15 - 20 years.

  i want to get back to studying but i am not ready to go to any meetings.

  other than the watchtower and awake what book is used these days for people just starting to study with jehovah's witnesses?.

  good pr for the rank and file but not much else also with them closing so many of the kingdom halls down it means there is a greater chance that people would have to drive a lot further to even get to any kingdom hall at hall

  1. jw
  2. friends

  with the jw congregations about to be informed that the ubiquitous awake!

  magazine is to be issued just once a month from january 2006, now is an apt time for interested parties to share brief memories and/or impressions about the bi-monthly awake!

  magazines, whether poignant, hard-hitting or humorous.

  i recently had a conversation with an old acquaintance from the congregation i used to attend.

  we talked about the recent changes in the 2023 annual meeting.

  The New Busy Work

  by NotFormer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for a hundred years the slaves were kept from having the time and energy to question anything and associate anywhere where they might be exposed to alternative views by having to keep up the busy work of going door to door.

  that avenue is drying up.

  and policy is changing.. the wt needs new busy work to keep the sheep engaged without thinking.. the wt fancies itself as an up and coming movie studio.

  the kingdom hall is still empty.

  even with amalgamation of 2 congregations.

  the elders are handling the microphones and there was only one comment from zoom at the watchtower.

  the slaves might be revolting

  by pepperheart2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  on the watchtower website it says that most of the work that will be done fishkill will be out sourced to non jws .i thought that jws always used to build everything them selves.

  this might explain what happend to ramapo they put an appeal out for free labour and people said no .

  anything that means that they have fewer khs must be good for the future .its almost as though they are trying to make it more difficult for new people to get to a kingdom hall
