What's up with the Brits and there love of royalty. I never understood that. Royalty has always looked down on the peasant as they we're filth. Don't understand the admiration Brits have for them. It's just weird.

Is the governing body of Jehovah's Witnesses REALLY the "faithful and discreet slave" of Matt. 24:45-47?
by Roger Kirkpatrick inthesis: when someone who is given a responsibility mistakes that responsibility for authority, bullying is very likely to occur.. jesus spoke an illustration recorded at matthew 24: 45-51 which well illustrates this thesis.. jesus asked, “who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over all his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?
happy is that slave if his master on arriving finds him doing so.
truly i say to you, he will appoint him over all his belongings.

Yeah we'll they seem too have forgotten that slave class Is suppose to be members of the 140000. The 140000 are supposed too rule as kings and priest. Seems logical they have to prove when they on earth they are wordy of that role. No spiritual being can come with accusations. A heavenly King is a example of agape. How they handle Child abuse cases and other things tell me this people are not much for Christian love. They seem too have thought only requirement was preaching. Besides that yeah you can claime that you are slave class and Jesus can have used you. But doesn't mean you have fullfil requirements. Plus having a slave class Is perfect, they have someone to blame everything on if things go sour.

If you are a believer, what are your plans for the future? Bible say don't have anything to do with false religion or you be connected to it sins. It's s biblical command. It's getting more and more clear watchtower is part of false religion. You gonna continue being a Jehovah witness or not? Maeby time soon to take decision what you gonna do.

Shouldn't GB tell members to abandon organisation? Surely things are pointing at watchtower being part of Babylon the great. In with way is watchtower being bless and been shown God's favour this days? It's slave class job to warn against coming dangerous or they gonna be connected to blood guilt. So why are they not warning about end of watchtower.

Meeting attendance
by Benavidez ini was wondering what your guys' meeting attendance was like.
our meetings here is like 50/50 with zoom and in person.
the spanish has it a little "better" with it being like 30% zoom attendance with most attending in person.. i've heard of congregations in other states having attendance where most (even elders and ms) attend meeting only via zoom and even have their cameras off.

They couldn't turn what happened in Russia, with loosing all buildings, to a blessing from God. So they quickly came up with " after deep prayer 😁 yeah right" that it was cause Russia was king of North.

Dumb 'experiences' you were told as a JW
by BettyHumpter inthis one stands out in my mind.
it was reported that 'a brother', unnamed of course, was out in field service and was set upon by a pack of vicious dogs.
he made it back to the car and was injured quite badly with his arms, hands and leg bleeding heavily.

One i heard time and time again was about a pioneer in Colombia. He got killed by a sicario when he was out in service. The murder later became a jw. He became a pioneer and vowed to do his time and the time the pioneer he killed would have done. This was back in the 80s when pioneers monthly hours was about 90 hours. Never receive an explanation why drug dealer would kill a jw and why he didn't receive prison time. But that's how the story went.

Starting September 01, 2022, the Angels will help in the ministry work
by RULES & REGULATIONS in2022 governing body update # 6. what exciting news david splane has for all jehovah's witnesses ( who for the last three years were spared the house-to-house preaching work ) '' that we'll return to the ministry september 01, 2022. just in time for our world wide campaign to start bible studies.
and, i'm sure the angels are excited too, because it will give them opportunities to help us with our ministry.''.
not only will the witnesses be rusty in their return to the field ministry, the angels in heaven have been sitting idle while the pandemic stopped the house-to-house ministry.

Ok so letter writing kampanj was not supported by angels. They only support door to door 😁 Ditto. No need to write letters or sit beside magazine stand again then. Don't think it's the whiskey anymore. Think lost GB members have serious mental problems. Mix that with living in a compound detach from reality.
