Yet another mo' money video!
by nowwhat? in(in the what's new section) apparently jehovah is still failing to provide the necessary funds so have to beg and petition men for support even though we said we'd never do that!.
new angle, if you want to make friends with jehovah and jesus we need more of your unrighteous riches .
apparently jehovah is in the protection racket now.

Happened in my work place also. Rumors of selling company. Higher ups telling everyone, just keep on working nothing gonna be sold( in JW land it's keep going too halls and donating). Some months after they sold company.

Return door to door
by Hellothere inany news about how it's going with the return too door 2 door preaching?
are the jws excited about it?
are they facing any opposition to it by householders?
-
Hellothere
Yeah plus my mother is jw. She tells me lots of her jw friends don't wanna return to halls. They claim they afraid of virus. Same time they travel around by train or airplane, without any worries of getting sick. Enthusiasm seems very low in JW land. Very very low.

Why are so many Jehovah’s Witnesses Angry and Rude?
by Vanderhoven7 inwhy do you think many jws are hostile and rude?

Change my mind. It's not bitterness. It's lack of faith. If they knew New system come tomorrow they would act differently. Saw that after 9/11 attack. Even most rude jw was behaving like a Sweet heart.

Avoiding Temptation As a Young Elder
by TMS init was the summer of '72.
i was 24 but had been the presiding overseer or congregation servant of a small congregation in the county seat of an arkansas county for about 3 years.. my regular pioneer wife of nearly four years was big and pregnant, with our attempts at birth control unsuccessful.. one of my wife's several bible studies was with a young woman named brenda whom my wife had encountered in door to door work.. brenda had two young children she could barely handle and was married to a very countryfied arkie named henry who worked as a chicken catcher, one of the most difficult jobs at the local chicken plant.. brenda eventually revealed that she'd been raised as a jw, but was never baptized, having left home to marry henry at age 14. she spoke of her family in texas, mentioning her mother and two older sisters, all jws she said.. one morning, just before the meeting for field service, we noticed a small car in kingdom hall parking lot.
my wife and i were parked to one side of the hall in our aluminum nashua house trailer.. two young women got out of the car and soon joined us for the meeting for service, identifying themselves as brenda's sisters from texas.. the two girls, ages 17 and 20, were distractingly beautiful, with the eldest decked out like a magnificent southern belle including hat and heels, her high-end clothing accentuating her very obvious curves.. with no one else showing up for field service, it ended up just the four of us in the car group with the two texas girls in the back seat.. starting our time at a not-at-home, the 20 year old asked if she could accompany me to "hear my presentation.

It's Very common women want married men. Either they think His good cause his married or they think they wanna compete with his wife, they just hate seeing another women happier. Knew a guy that never manage to pick Up girls visiting clubs. So he tested with putting marriage ring on. He hade no problems getting attention then by the females.

enoughisenough There were two letters send out to congregations about this issue. CO is supposed to go out in service with the person before an appointment. See if person had the right motive (agape) for the job. Yeah it was around the Australian court case this came about. For sure GB covering their behind and throwing co under the bus. Back then not nothing about child abuse cases, I thought org was turning to a more loving attitude. But of course it was for legal reasons.

They change all that some 10 years ago. Now the co is supposed too appoint new elders. Base on some Bible text were Paulus went around appointing brothers. There was a Bible verse they gotten wrong and were correcting. Person has to show that he wants to help congregation and is applying fruit of spirit in his life. Plus elders that were not loving hade to be removed. This came up after the child abuse situation started. Think GB wanted to clean their hands and tell everyone they don't have anything too do with elder appointments. Must been a legal move. Before if you hade pants and married that was enough to become elder. They probably moving away from elder arrangements altogether now with online move ( don't tell current elders that have taken the vaccine about that 😁).

Organisation believes angels guard over congregations. Like in book of revelation. Not that elders are angels. Plus they believe new testament was written for the 144.000.
