Thank you Atlantis
I thought that modifications, that has to bee approved by the LCD, are costs not for the publishers, but they would provide , and minor modifications ,where elders have to decide locally.. like a replacement of a toilet... Would be paid by the publishers.
thus minor reparations: responsobility of the publishers
and now greater costs: also responsability of the publishers
and where is the money we give as congregation montly?
The purpose was also to use the money for such costs. They know it, but they know that the most of publishers will give money, without questioning...

Organization, not a concept established by God
by StarTrekAngel in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i was dwelling over a discussion going on at jw-archive.

the old topic of the legitimacy of the gb and the concept of centralized organization.

despite what the wt claims, there are a number of examples in the new testament of actions and decisions taken without direction or even the awareness of the elders in jerusalem.. despite whatever other evidence jw may have about the organizational tendencies of god (namely the creation, universe, whatever else they usually bring up), the concept of an organized nation never originated from god.
Anakin

Russel, the founder of the bible students wrote about this subject in Studies in the Scriptures: he was against the idea, of being an organisation, with a central college, like the papacy (vatican), like he called it.. Why? Because his experience was, that in those denominal churches, questioning a doctrine, was not practised, and punished, if someone did it....
he spoke in volume 3, Of studies in the scriptures, about the danger the slavery of the conscience, when being member of an organisation..
he was against the idea promoted in human religious organisations, that being a member, is essential for personal salvation, but that our names are recorded in heaven, that the most important, rather then keeping records by human organisations..
Ask a JW, next time you meet him, if he knows that russel wasn't in favor of an human organisation, and mention that he can read it in the Studies in the Scriptures..by himself..
if he will object, about they not use the STISm anymore, then tell them that all the missionaries who where graduated until 1989, know this fact, also the GB, because study in the scriptures where used by teachers in the Gilead missionary school until 1989, then, the use of it was being removed.. if you see the developments in JW Organisation, I can understand that according the definition russel gave about an human organisation, is classyfying them as part of Babylon the Great..
according to the standards of their founder, they are far from being directed by God's Spirit..

Thank you, Atlantis!
if these are the only reasons to form a Congregation, why are they here in Europe, re-arranging Congregations? I will explain:
elders, and MS, and publishers are being asked to serve in other congregations, by the CO's, some of them have to make great distances to be members of that congregation.. If you don't want to change congregation, you are not be viewed as a exemplar publisher antmore according to the CO.. Isn't that contradictory with this instruction?
