there is a spirit in various religions that confirms they are true to people

by enoughisenough in

i just watched youtube warwick pimo -2 videos which i will link if you care to watch them for context.

he shows clips of various people starting to get involved in various religions and they are all saying basically the same thing- a feeling coming over them and that is how they knew they had found the truth...very interesting!

the first experiences are of jw, but other religions follow if you watch the 2 videos.

Red pill blue pill is a good analogy for JWs, but is it possible to take the red pill and still keep some of the advantages of the blue pill? Keep a slither of hope that the promises in the Bible may have some truth to them?

It’s obvious that no organised religion is spirit directed if God even exists. Certainly not JWs who one the one hand claim to be no inspired or infallible. But on the other hand claim Gods spirit directed organisation?

“How does an organization claim be be spirit directed and not inspired by Holy Spirit at the same time?“

They want to have it both ways. Have their cake and eat it.

When they obviously got things wrong they are not inspired or infallible. But every other time they are Spirit directed so follow the direction even if it doesn’t make any sense.

Just like the direction to replace butter with margarine in the 1990s, follow margarine direction even you don’t agree.

Just like Jehovah says the covid vaccines are safe and effective, keep going to get your booster covid shots to remain fully vaccinated.

Tell you what, why not get some of Jehovaxx margarine and put some MRNA spike protein in there and keep injecting that because Jehovaxx has said follow the direction even if you don’t agree.

spirit directed organization

by enoughisenough in

i was watching a video about wt and money and the "brother" refers to the "spirit directed organization.

" he also says they use donations wisely and modestly.

are the gb so deluded and therefore their followers?

Where is Tony?

by Athanasius in

on february 22, 2023, anthony morris iii was officially removed from the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.

a few months later it was revealed that the watchtower bought him a house in lumberton, north carolina.. however, and correct me if i am wrong, since leaving the gb nobody has reported seeing tony attending jw meetings or participating in field service.

in fact nobody has reported seeing him anywhere, not even at a local liquor store.

Two house Tony must be attending that KH that Selina Vertilomo crashed into. When she asked is he here now? The brother answered as if to say he is not here now.

It sounded like he had already gone home or perhaps he and his wife are attending on zoom. It’s probably really hard to get zoom passwords for that congregation.

It’s amazing that this much time has gone on and the truth still has not come out. In March 2024 will he get away again with everyone not knowing if he still partakes in the emblems?

If you are driving there silentbuddah could you please get some pictures of his two houses it would really help the community.

I do understand everything hinges on keeping a lid on the situation for the Borg. It may well be a case of keeping these secrets about two house Tony is essential to stop the tower falling for good. But my feeling is that the truth has a way of getting out eventually

Jehovah's Witness Governing Body, (New Light Division) Are Vegetable Oils not more important than Beards?

by was a new boy in

'use vegetable oil and soft margarine in place of animal fat,'.

https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/101997444?q=vegetable+oil&p=par.

'when possible, cook with unsaturated vegetable oils.'.

jehovaxx

Wow, they really gave direction from Jehovah that margarine and seeds oils were to be used in place of animal fat and real butter?

”Use vegetable oil and soft margarine in place of animal fat,”

Have they ever done a U turn in this direction?

Then they even say to heat the seed oils to very high temperatures. This advice is so very harmful.

”Cook the food until it is very hot. ”

Seed oils heated up to high temp is what is extremely harmful to your health!!

It’s ok to use a small amount of seed oils in your diet but don’t do what watchtower is saying there and heat them up to high temperatures. If you try to keep them as low a temperature as possible they are not as toxic and harmful

even elders can be part of the new jw lite brigade these days.

they don’t need to go on door to door anymore and there is no requirement for anything really.. taking meeting parts is all dead easy you could turn up on the day with zero preparation because it’s all in the meeting workbook.. quarterly elders meetings are just old men having a good old natter just like old men do down the pub.. congregations could be likened to pubs or bars these days just without the drinks, those come at other times.. no need for territory maps, these almost went away with covid letter writing now they are extremely slow getting finished as those who still go door to door only do ten mins.. you could even voice your questions these days about things the gb say and then just say “we can’t be dogmatic we just don’t know”.

i predict they will say this about 1914 soon..

jehovaxx

The trend is clear, a less restrictive easier religion.

They have to do something to stop the exodus.

So if even the official JW way is what many will be calling JWlite, those who want to be even lighter can be called JWlighter still 🤣

Saturday mornings will be just a good old zoom get together, a few may occasionally go out on field service but not do that much.

Meetings will continue to be hybrid sometimes around 50% on zoom and 50% in person. Have a goal to try to get to in person meetings at least 12 times a year and especially the memorial, then you are doing really well 👏

No more shunning, birthdays are a borderline just call them happy days and don’t draw attention too much when you celebrate them. Same with most things that used to cause trouble now just do it but don’t make a big deal about it.

Most couples are not entirely first timers on their wedding night if you know what I mean, I think if honest numbers could be known hardly any couples can say that. But they just keep it quiet and this is what needs to be done with everything.

Two house Tony is the best. If that name sticks and people keep asking why do they call him that then it will be priceless 👏

What is worse: 1914 or Beard change

by Gorb in

what is worse for jw's: changing the 1914 doctrine or allowing beards without the right to say what their opinion is?.

g..

jehovaxx

They never want a long term plan, to keep the money flowing in they need to keep Jdubs in a sense of urgency.

They had 1975 to look forward to, but then that came and went. They had the end of the millennium next, many articles saying the end would before the year 2000. That came and went.

Then they came up with the overlapping generations, that kind of bought them some time while keeping the sense of urgency that it was still right around the corner.

Some were looking to the year 2014, and that was mentioned a fair bit as 100 years of Jesus ruling as king. That came and went.

It been a decade since then and they haven’t come up with anything else to make people think it’s very close and have this sense of urgency to keep Jdubs busy and keep the money flowing in.

The last time the new younger members were added to the GB some were disappointed they thought the last lot were the last ones. But then over 25years ago they added Tony and some others.

There was talk at the time that these would be the last members of the GB and the end would come before they died and they would be raptured although that word was never used they use different words for raptured.

Now here we are another quarter of a century later and they have added two more younger members.

They really need something else to keep the sense of urgency but at the same time need to think how they can handle the 1914 problem

Yes the GB even addressed this longhairgal, when they sarcastically said “but that’s not fair”!

They never gave any reprieve to those hardliners who did the JW heavy for decades even lifetimes.

Now the JWLITE means no ministry required, lightening up on everything. You can have a beard you can stay on zoom when you feel like plus an often overlooked element to JWLITE is the control of morality aspect.

These days requirements for entertainment and leisure activities are far different from decades past. Some digital nomads are never at their congregations where their record cards are but are constantly travelling. This would have been frowned upon before JWLITE.

Yes they are in full panic mode. Slowly becoming JWlite following all recommendations by apostates, we should be paid royalties and sue for plagiarism!

There could be the regular JWLITE which is what Borg is becoming and and super light JWLITE where you are irregular but still keep your hand in as it were.

After the new light on facial hair, next new light on U turn on vaccine mandates for all schools? They still haven’t done this and the longer they leave it seems JWs are the only ones left on Earth keep going to get the booster jabs every six months.

They keep using the first century circumcised issue. Well in the end that was concluded with neutrality. You can have the medical procedure if you want but you don’t have to.

To start with they said you have to have it then they did a U turn. They have done a U turn on beards and so many other things now how long before the U turn on having to be fully vaccinated?

After that a U turn on better education, blood transfusions being a conscience matter, birthdays, sisters having teaching parts, only one in person meeting per week the rest on zoom.

Lightening up requirements for appointment in congregations, lowering the age again so teenagers can be elders? Possibly as they have moved towards this in recent new light announcements
