  there is apparently an interview being circulated among JW. Me and my PIMI wife got it several times. Its from some kind of TV station in US. Its very favourable and seems staged to me. I cant provide a link, it does not seem to work. Anyway the title is:

  "The Morning Show with Aaron Michael Sanchez"

  an experience from the latest magazine.

  only in jehovah's organization!

  oh wait.. jovica, quoted earlier in this series ofarticles, grew up hearing his countrymen,the news, and television programs givenegative reports about a minority group.“i became filled with prejudice—and evenhatred—for those people,” he says.

  Yep, you nfind these kind of experiences anywhere, religions, charities, even army organisations.

  However, as JW are so conditioned only to focus on their own, they are blind to these things, since the world is rotten to the core and Satan rules it anyway.

  They Are Going To Start Clamping Down With Staying At Home - Local Needs + GB Update #4

  by thedepressedsoul in

  1. watchtower

  many of us have watched the gb #4 update.

  most of us jumped for joy when they basically said that there will be no meeting in person for a long time to come.. one aspect we overlooked was how hard they hit home the "love of neighbor".

  how this "love" is what makes a true christian and as a result our love for our neighbors will motivate us to stay at home.. well now they released a letter that is instructing all kh's to view this video during their local needs part.

  Hi, I agree with the sentiment, that somewhere in near future they adress the problem of turnig off camera while zooming.

  But it can easily backfire. Right now attendance is high, since people who may not feel well or miss meeting because of stress or boredom, just sign in without camera. If they put pressure to the folks to turn on their camera, mayn might simply not zoom in at all. Then the attendance will drop again, something the org, number crazy as it is, would surely avoid.

  Breaking: Beards in The Watchtower

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the latest issue of the watchtower shows a man with a beard praying.. .

  i fully expected to see him 'progress' to clean-shaven in the following pictures, but instead he is still bearded when 'applying bible principles'.. .

  i then realized that he was already featured on the cover itself.. .

  more and more beards to be spotted on brothers even in position of service in middle europe as well

  however, I know still some who look at it with suspicion, which prompts the stumbling card for some

  Does prophesy negate free will?

  by Tim207 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  not sure if this is in the right subject but here it goes.

  i’ve asked this question to a few elders and bethelites but they don’t seem to understand or like the question.

  to start off we have to agree that jehovah is all powerful.

  Tim, I asked myself the same question, particularly regarding the betrayal fo Judas Iscariot. Even as a full believing PIMI could not wrap my head around it.

  Now I know, that so called prophesy does not exist anyhow. Still, I do not have a scientific sound answer to whether we have free will or not .

  WT study April 5 - how uplifting! How happifying! How encouraging!

  by sir82 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  for you poor saps unfortunate enough to have missed yesterday's zoom watchtower study, i thought i'd prepare a little summary for you.. in fact, to keep things really short, i'll just highlight the outstanding verbs from the article.. paragraph 2: do not view.

  paragraph 4: think seriously about the warning.....partake unworthily.

  paragraph 5: do not feel...does not give....do not feel....would never tell.

  the best was, hen they said, we need not worry about the increasing number of partakers, but why in all the world do we always count them ?

  What use of a statistical number if the content of its information is useless?

  Are Publichers just encouraged to watch it on april 7th? Or will there be a zoom meeting with a locla brother handling the talk?

  What about the symbols? In my mothers (PIMI) congo the elders require the simple publishers to prepare the bread and the wine at their home, each of them, even if no one is of the anointed.

  If you're "anointed" don't seek out other "anointed" so says the Watchtower January 2020

  by RolRod in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when i was affiliated with the witnesses, there were barely 6,000 who profess to be of the anointed remnant.

  i recently read somewhere that today there are over 20,000 who profess to be anointed.

  that figure may be more when you consider those who meet and partake privately for fear of the stigma of claiming to be anointed.

  weird, so the "other sheep" should time and again talk about their future hope on a paradise earth, but this is not allowed for the anointed ? Another proof of how controlling this org gets….
