I’m a current elder ex bethel in London

friends

i was in bethel for years early 2000s and was heavily involved with brd from start to finish .

im current elder in one of the congregations in london.

what i’ve noticed is huge changes since covid .

Were you still there in Bethel around 2009 when some elders were disfellowshiped for "apostasy"? I remember there were maybe 4 of them and the issues were similar than in 1980 in Brooklyn, that everyone should partake etc.

-

yes I remember that. That one old black brother who claimed to be anointed and the other black brother I won’t say their names

i also know a younger brother called Dale Warren who was closely involved with the group but last min left them and “stayed faithful to Jehovah”

so how did you know about it? Were you in bethel?

Booster shots required for Bethelites and special full time servants?

by PimoElder in

it’s a shame the gov body did a big u turn on vaccines .

if they continue with the rule that only fully vaxed can go back to the hall then i could have stayed on zoom.

but the term fully vaxed is a moving target, if it’s been like six months since your last shot you are just the same as those of us who are unvaxed .

mikexjw---have you had covid ?

Yes I had it once but it wasn’t too bad because I am unvaxed

im sure if I was fully vaxed it would have been much worse as my immune system would have been compromised

I don't think following vaccine development in a once in a century public health crisis and investing accordingly is really a bad thing. I bought into bought Pfizer and Moderna and make some decent money on both stocks. I am currently looking at monkeypox vaccine manufacturers and throwing a few dollars in the ring.

For people who are always using terms like " Woke " and " Socialism " , they sure don't seem like they have much understanding of how free markets work.

Riley would you still invest and push these vaccines on people if you knew they contained aborted babies and were harmful?

Investment departments in Bethel

by Mikejw in

i was a bethelite in london for many years then got reassigned to the field and then went on brd from the start of chelmsford right upto covid.. during my years at the branch i was sometimes asked to be on a team who went to homes donated to the branch when some older one died.. this happenes an awful lot, everything is left to the branch in the will.

the unbelieving family is furious they didn’t get left anything and sometimes they tried to get their elderly relatives possessions and there was a legal battle .

but in the end a team of us would go and empty the property and another team would clean it up and put it on the market to sell it for the worldwide work.. all the possessions were sorted into trash or possibly valuable .

Repulsive how WT has for over a century jugmentally criticised "Christendom" and other religious sectors for amassing properties and great wealth.

-

yes they keep a lot of their wealth in real assets - property, precious metals and stones.

I once asked Peter why they don’t sell all the gold and jewels straight away when they inherited it? He said it came right from the top, not to have to much in fiat currency which is all traceable and taxable.

they are very mysterious with all the things they get inherited to them.

it’s actually quite surprising just how many brothers and sisters have died the last few decades who left everything to the Borg

King has lost good standing, WT will eventually remove or edit the videos/publications in which King appeared.

-

I know they used to do that with pictures in new publications printed without them but how can they replace actors in movies?

Resuming door to door September 1st

by Mikejw in

gb worried about not enough coming to in person meetings.

what are they going to be like when they realise not only jdubs don’t want to go to in person meetings but they really don’t want to go back on the min.

zoom has so much more appeal for rather than meetings or door to door.

I guessing that this return to Field Circus isn't going to get great support and whatever support it gets, most of that time will still be spent at McDonalds or Starbucks (depending on each JW's social economic status.

-

this is so true, also depending on their status in the cong

the brother taking the lead hardly does any as he says he is looking after everyone which means walking back and forth not actually knocking on any doors
