uh oh, looks like the mega thread gave up the ghost, so while i investigate / fix it just continue the discussion here .... it's been a long 9 years lloyd evans / john cedars.

Didn't he also get pissed when he found out they were all sharing one copy of the book rather than paying for their own individual copies, or something like that? If I'm not mistaken, he not only didn't pay them but expected them to buy a book that they would translate for free.

Why does this sound familiar?

I met a lovely young woman at a recent Bethel tour in Chelmsford. She drives in 2 days per week at her own expense to work in translation department.

I asked can’t you work from home? She said yes easier but they want us to come in to work,

all for free

Blue Ocean

by Freeorange in

there’s a term in the corporate / business world known as blue ocean strategy.

the basic gist of it is to stop wasting time in your small, dwindling pool of current customers when there’s a wide open ocean of untapped customers out there.

to achieve this leap is to adapt or transition to a more appealing package of your current business model to attract the masses.

Jordan Maxwell where he describes Fred Franz being guarded by a smoking Zionist man at the assembly I highly recommend it.

I would like to hear more about this?

I find it hard to believe myself but can anyone elaborate? If this can be true then the rest of the hard to believe parts can more easily be believed?

the secret tunnels for example? Do they have secret tunnels in the new Bethel’s? Or just secret bunkers?

you heard me correct, this is not a joke, and it is not april fools day!

the asl portion of the governing body updated #2 (march 2024) has been released a bit early and someone caught it.

summary: .

Yes a seismic change. For so long now there was a fear of being DF’ed, and this is ingrained so deep I suspect not many will realise that such a change has taken place.

You family will not shun you for the 90days anymore they can talk to you during that 90days even if officially only at the meetings but we all know everyone will go further.

The fat charlatans of the GB are so low IQ they really should get advice from someone smarter before coming up with new direction 👏

The changes are so profound that hardly anyone will ever be DFed and shunned for more than 90days ever again.

90 days isn’t too much of a threat now

Who really is the Faithful and Discreet Slave? The recent changes and the Governing Body's 10 year plan

by redsetter2 in

i am sure we were all shocked at the governing body update #2 with the unusual and impulsive changes set forth.. i am an insider at whq, and when i was on reddit and in communication with avoidjw i explained to the best of my ability that the approach on disfellowshipping was going to change based on the new light at the 2023 agm, that the jubilee rumor was false, and there were going to be changes on how jws approached disfellowshipping in response to the norway situation if it didn't turn out in watchtower's favor.

the decision came because of a legal blow to watchtower, not because "holy spirit" wad directing a faithful slave, who is going to become the "evil slave", more explanation on this soon.. everything i stated came true.

i left reddit exjw community due to the immature and mentally unstable nature there, and yet as has been the case my words came true.

Mikejw

Who else could the Faithful Slave be? If you don't believe this and obey the Slave, you will be destroyed at Armageddon… unless you die before the great tribulation starts and then you get an automatic pass into paradise.

That is old light. The new light is you have the same chance if you die before or are alive at Armageddon. Only if you are really bad will you not be resurrected or killed at Armageddon

New light on shunning?

by Mikejw in

one theory why tony was booted out was because he was a stickler for not changing the shunning doctrine.

he actually said the words we will never ever change it.. they are slowly deleting all of tony’s videos and now losing court cases and losing government hand outs in places like norway.. it’s looking very likely they will release new light on shunning policy after losing this latest one in norway.. .

what are the odds they coincidentally get new light from jehovah and lighten up their shunning policy ?.

Mikejw

There is so much confusion over so many changes.

It will end up that everyone will just talk to DF’ed ones and they will resume family relationships without feeling they need to come back.

this will backfire on the GB and what will happen is JWs talking to DF’ed family members will have to answer questions about why the Shunning direction has been wrong for all these many decades?

The JWs are slowly realising that it’s a man made organisation

instead of DF’ed one’s coming back more JWs will leave

Minor Accused of Wrongdoing who doesn't have JW Parents

by NotFormer in

from the update*: "8. when a baptised minor becomes involved in serious wrongdoing, two elders (not a committee) will meet with him along with his christian parent(s) or legal guardian(s)".. "christian" is wt code for jw, i'm guessing, and it's worded this way to sound more ambiguous for the sake of the norwegian and other governments.

so what happens to a minor who doesn't have jw parents?

a young convert (not likely in this day and age, but not impossible) or a born in who was orphaned and adopted by non-jw relatives?

Mikejw

How would you ever get a minor become a JW if he/she had no relatives in the faith? It just would not happen. It could have been some others in the faith who brought them in? Then these would be the spiritual guardians

Unless they all left and the minor didn’t.

What can be worn at meeting and ministry now?

by Mikejw in

so what is appropriate now we don’t have to wear a suit and tie?.

i imagine just a smart shirt and smart casual trousers.

what about shoes?

Mikejw

Next elders meeting after the main meeting the brothers coming out of the back room could look like this

As unimaginable as dropping the blood ban seems, just look at the changes of recent times.

I do predict more massive changes to come.

they are in full on panic mode and even the die hard believers are asking what the hell is going on?
