With what's going on In recent year's with child abuse, vaccin, half empty khs and stopped door to door for two years, this brings another bit too puzzle. Many JWs are wondering why all this happening to org. Specially as watchtower always said allt other religions gonna be destroyed before watchtower. Now they find out watchtower getting governmen money for year's and telling congregations that all is done by donations. Every little thing org been doing on the dark for year's is coming out. This already half dead org is just gonna be suffering even more

Vanderhoven7 was that not the old light. When they thought they were guided by holy spirit. The newe light some years ago was that they were NOT inspired ๐. It's hard too watch JW videos. Cause you got too check how old they are too see if it's new or old light ๐

Don't understand the mindset of people in congregations. Oh they removed hours for pioneer's, let's all become one. Why this obsession with a title. Not a thought about quality, must have title. They have become worse then Catholic Church when it comes to titles. What watchtower once hated, they become big time.

I was at store with someone. He was about to pay for his grocery. Someone from his Church just came up and paid for everything. That would have been very unusual in JW land. Problem with JWs or watchtower is their attitude. They always have hade an attitude that they only the real Christians. Better then other groups. Then they should be an example in Agape for all other groups. But they won't. Too watchtower agape is only shown when you preach. And from the broadcasting GB have shown, they don't like children, they don't care if children been abuse and they think apostate should all go up in flames in harmagedon. I think GB represents to large degree how JWs in general see things.

Do the old boys on the GB actually report their field service hours?
by eyeslice inthis came to mind as my 71 year old wife got up at 6:30 to drive 1.1/4 hours to meet the field ministry group.
we live a long way from the kingdom hall and the traffic is horrendous where we live!.
somehow, i doubt the good old boys do much themselves.

Hellothere
Yeah but I think this people actually love the preaching work and hate being Infront of camera. They wanted too be part of bethel. So they will have too deal with it.

Keep telling yourself that!
by Lost in the fog inin the latest copy of the elders textbook someone kindly made available to us on this website, i see that "independently organized meetings for spiritual feeding" are still not allowed.
no wonder because independent research would let the scales fall from the eyes.. the gb still insisting that they are guided by the (always lower case) holy spirit and the bible!!
not that the rank and file members need the bible or holy spirit themselves because they are fed through meetings, conventions, assemblies, jw broadcasting and the publications.

peacefulpete Watchtower started encouraging JWs too gather together and study watchtower articles day before watchtower study. They started with it around 2000. I was in several such gatherings. The light gets brighter, then shuts down, then get brighter every now and then ๐ No wonder JWs are very confused.

Yeah some years ago GB forbidde members to speculate also ๐ Talk about full cult religion. Not much too do with bible this days.
Psalms 32:8-9I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye. Do not be like the horse or like the mule, Which have no understanding, Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle, Else they will not come near you.

Pioneer couple sense of entitlement
by nowwhat? inso there's this middle age pioneer couple.
he works part time and the wife doesn't work at all.

Either way, if you wanna give and help someone. It's better doing it in own congregation then sending everything to headquarters
