Just joking I really don't think so...but the situation in Syria is pretty worrisome...just hearing the news that France and Great Britain are attacking with cruise missiles in 72 hours. I mean Assad is not gonna gasify his adversaries when he almost won the civil war. Trump too suspended a very important trip to the Latinoamerican Presidents Summit in Peru, just to 'oversee the American response to Syria. They are corraling to much the Russian bear. Ahh...the most crazy thing, it's happening near Megiddo. RF are gonna be über exultant. When humanity would be in peace?

The destruction of "Babylon the Great"
by Sour Grapes ini read the talk outline #49 for this summer's regional convention entitled "future events that will require courage-the destruction of babylon the great.".
the jdubs live in a comic book world.
babylon the great is all false religious organizations and she is destroyed by those she seeks to control.

Yea, but there's something that always had puzzled me. In Revelation it says something about Kings and Merchaders wailing because Babylon the Great is destroyed, 'in just one hour'. So, why the WT has said that all the political forces, represented as the Beast, are gonna destroy Babylon the Great?.

July 2018 WT points
by The Fall Guy inpage 16, par.
18 carefully follow the latest directions.. do we faithfully follow the latest directions that jehovah has given us?
if so, we will not rely on always doing things the way we have done them in the past.

I put my bet it's about changes in preaching. There's no anymore pressure to get off literature, so preaching could be informal. No more counting hours and other stuff. Saves a lot of bureaucracy at headquarters too. You could be active or inactive. Just saying.

If you're expecting a mass exodus anytime soon, FORGET ABOUT IT!
by nowwhat? ini have to make a token appearance at the k.h.
once a month or so and this week went to a different hall.
and believe me they are all still totally oblivious to all the negative news about the pedophiles and shunning that have come under scrutiny by the media and other governments.

The thing that 'worries' me is the lack of enough 'espiritual food'. I mean it used to be a lot of magazines and books with varied information to keep the RF entertained. Now almost no magazines y almost no new books. It's like they slashed to much the writers department. Their message it's to much reiterative, like the ones on top just give up. Oversimplification could run people away too.

Will the Watchtower Company in the near future start asking for a tithe?
by Sour Grapes init appears that the borg has some financial issues and i would think they are related to the hush money being paid out for the child molestation lawsuits to protect the guilty cult members and the fine untarnished reputation of the jdubs.. we have seen how much the borg refers to the hebrew scriptures for their guiding principles whenever it suits the borg's needs.
tithing certainly is laced throughout the old testament.
under the mosaic law, there were three tithes.

Tithing is such a terrible idea, it would be great, charity dances for the worldwide preaching fund or...why not? Bingos for the local needs!. Just kidding. Ideas for GB 4.0

Life's difficult sometimes....but is really bad in other places. JRK, people sometimes need to struggle a little bit to be happy. You could take a month to Venezuela or Haiti to see it by yourself. You could seek a hobby, change careers, seek medical help, peace, be happy.

The Publishing Committe has ,,
by Lostandfound inin a recent announcement concerning commercial delivery of all magazines, the clear fingerprints of the gb are seen to direct matters that are non spiritual, directing the operation they claim to have no control over.
why are they directing commercial matters if they are aloof from any and all control and direction of the various wt bodies.
the publishing committe, like all similar groups, clearly take the lead from the gb, the publishing committee has no leeway in what they do, carry out orders from a group claiming no authority.

The thing that intrigues me is that there is a way more inexpensive for a corporation like WT having its own trucks and people making the deliveries...it makes no sense... unless they're planning to reduce even more printing.

It's one step more for the WT to be a mainstream church....it goes along with making their teachings simple so just a caste has the golden nuggets.
