please arrange for a resolution to be considered by the congregation authorizing the following amount to be sent from congregation funds each month for the 12-month period of September 2019through August 2020: (per-publisher amount noted on jw.org) x (number of active publishers)÷ 12.
According to this formula, each assembly is forced to pay a fixed amount of tribute annually?

Corney The Trump administration considers China to be America's biggest enemy, and Trump is extremely reluctant even to criticize Russia or Putin.
It is difficult to judge who is in the first place, Russia or China.
You speculate when you claim! The number of sanctions against Russia far exceeds the number against China.
Yes! I believe that the GB will not do anything about the international strategic opponents of the United States, without the orders of the State Department!

Сorney Can you explain your "logic"? Now, when the confrontation between the US and China is escalating, and the US Government repeatedly accuses China of human rights violations, Watchtower's silence about those Witnesses proves... What does it prove? And can you provide a single fact really supporting your claim?
Yes of course! I am Ukrainian, so I regularly watch a tsunami propaganda lie that is pouring in the direction of Russia from JW. Russia is the main strategic opponent of the United States. The silence of JW can only be explained by the absence of a directive from above)
How can you explain complete silence? I have all the attention)

Article 300 of the Criminal Code of China has sanctions from 3 to 7 years in prison. Aggravating circumstances suggest 7 or more years.
So, 18 people will be guaranteed to sit, but GB is silent. Goats! Does anyone else have doubts that their priority is the US state interests?
these images were posted on one of my fb news feeds.
they are legit.
looks like an upscale commercial bldg.
I wouldn’t be surprised if there are additional beams in the structure of the building, which make it easy to make gates instead of windows.
Сar service ready) Standard is not much different
this is quite incredible.during his talk, the branch overseer, made a special talk dedicated to the apostates.. he clearly emphasis his point, "apostates used to be between us, really you can talk with apostates, those people are good, of course their point of vue is different than ours now but they are mostly very nice poeple, and you shouldn't be afraid to talk with them.
"though as usual, the reaction of the brothers was quite the same, impassive, i was very surprise by this statement.i cannot assume if this is just a one man step ahead towards the apostates, or really a change in their policies, this came from the mouth of a branch overseer.of course, for obvious reason, i won't give the name of the brother, which is famous, but only here in an central european country.i would have expected him to quote more scriptures, but he didn't, he could have use the one for jesus himself :"you should love your enemies", as apostates were really the "enemies" for the wtbs for such a long time, maybe now that the king of the north is awaken, apostates are not so bad after all ?
just wondering....
Not news, but food for thought.
When two independent sources talk about one thing, it means something! Maybe tomorrow will be the third, and the fourth day after tomorrow)

Sorry, but for now it is not possible to assert anything. Neither fake nor truth.
Time will tell!
If the overseer is already openly speaking, it means it’s not long to wait)

It becomes like the truth.
what prompted this topic was a dream i had last night where i was engaged in a conversation i had with an old friend where i was trying to prove where the jw`s were wrong from their own bible.. and this is not the first time i have had such dreams.. often times i have had dreams about people i have known in the religion .. remember i have been away from the religion for more than 26 years now and in a totally different part of the country .. i now wonder if any of them ever dream about my wife and i ?
but that`s something i`ll never know.. do any of you have any such experiences ?.
maybe i`m spending too much time on this site lol.
Yes! I often see in the dreams my friends remaining JW!
I am sure that they see me sometimes too.
