It's been that way for years. In addition to that they have another fund for their cars. The congregation pays for all their expenses each week.

the leaders of the witnesses are preparing their flock for the day when they will have to give that last message of damnation.

they will soon be announcing how their loving god jehovah will soon becoming to kill off the vast majority of mankind.

billions of men women and children,.

In the mid 80's they said that "we were in a warning work" not necessarily trying to find sheeplike ones. Then that slowly fizzled away. As if the preaching work separated the sheep and the goats. Jesus is supposed to do that.

What is the current pulse in the organization with the reductions?

i have not seen jehovah’s witnesses in my neighborhood for several years now.

it appears that the cart witnessing has taken over.

congregations are being consolidated and witnesses are being forced to travel a greater distance than before.the burdens/privileges of elders seem to be ever increasing!.

AnnaB, yes, you must have a Society approved UL listed cart. Standing there with literature in ones' hands is so Uncool and Untheocratic. This is not what the Governing Body is directing. Only approved UL Governing Body carts can "hold" literature. The angle of the eyes is all wrong if a human holds it in their hands at or below face level. Potential Jehovah's Witnesses should not have their head held so high as to the literature in a man's hand. All Jehovah's Witnesses that hold their head up that high to see literature in a man's hand are not subordinate or submissive to the Governing Body. This should be corrected without delay.

Zombie dubs

by lastmanstanding in

i recently was on a job with the cobe and i would like to relate this experience.

it goes to show how unthink these zombies have become.. during working, the cobe asks me “did you see that couple that died in the eritrean prison, the brother and his wife?”.

i replied that i had not seen anything like that.

Lastmanstanding, the Cobe wife was baiting you hoping that you would agree with her and then she would have a story to tell her husband.

JW-RUSSIA.org cross image

by neat blue dog in

i was just browsing the russian jw site and saw this image that appears to represent christian persecution by showing handcuffs in front of prison bars that appear to form a cross.

which would be weird because they don't even believe in the cross, or maybe it was clip art from another source and they didn't notice.

or last and most likely i'm seeing things that aren't there 😜.

Sigfrid Mallozzi

Why does a prisoner need handcuffs chained to the bars while inside a prison cell? Unless it was like this in the Three Amigos I could understand.

Wow. I guess we all can agree upon the lies that Watchtower has told throughout the years.

Remember the Wife of Lot

by Addison0998 in

for family worship last night, our family watched remember the wife of lot movie since it will be discussed in the meeting this week.

there’s a few things i noticed that i didn’t think about last time i watched it.. first, the dad is very of course against his daughters going to college or even trying to find a good job.

yet he does accounting, which is a very good job that almost always requires a college education.

I've been successful in getting my family out, although wifee and myself divorced. My daughter is attending a UNIVERSITY studying the trade of Bio-Chemistry. She is very smart and while reading this post I was reflecting that if I hadn't set the lead to get out, she could be pioneering this year. This is a real blessing from Jah.

why the watchtower is so short of money

by pepperheart in

the watchtower is so short of money because they have to pay for all the upkeep of so many branch offices around the world.because so many of the branch offices are in very poor countries and they are not balancing the budgets.

Compare the behavior of Sears to Watchtower!

"Selling off assets to make up for sales and revenue shortfalls would become standard operating procedure for the chain over the next five years, but in 2012, then-CEO Lou D'Ambrosio probably had no idea that the worst was yet to come."

In the article

Here's How Far Sears Holdings Has Fallen in 5 Years (https://www.fool.com/investing/2017/07/10/heres-how-far-sears-holdings-has-fallen-in-5-years.aspx)

The retailer has been getting smaller and shedding assets with few signs it will right its ship.

Where does Sears stand now?

In five years, Sears has gone from $9.3 billion in Q1 sales to $4.3 billion. It has also seen its store count drop by more than half, not counting its now-sold Canada operation. When 2012 began, the company had 1,305 Kmart stores and 867 full-line Sears stores in the U.S.

Five years later, at the close of Q1 2017, the company had just 626 full-line Sears and 624 Kmart locations. It has also sold off its Craftsman brand and countless real estate assets and plans to close 72 more stores by September.

In addition, at the end of Q1 2012, Sears had a cash balance totaling $784 million and inventory of $8.8 billion. Five years later, at the close of Q1 2017, the company had $3.7 billion in debt, a number that's exactly the same as its total liquidity and liquid assets.

In five years, Sears has gone from $9.5 billion in cash and inventory, not to mention now sold-off assets like Craftsman, to a total value of $0. That's a stunning decline made worse by the fact that profitability seems no closer than it did five years ago.

What's next for Sears Holdings?

While Lampert remains optimistic that a turnaround remains possible, Sears' only successes have been in turning its assets into cash. Sales dropped by $1.1 billion year-over-year in Q1, and Sears stores saw a 12.4% decline in same-store sales while Kmart's fell by 11.2%.

There's no reason to believe that any of that will change before Sears runs out of money. The company also runs the risk that its vendors will stop shipping merchandise or demand payment up front, which would effectively put it out of business.

Sears has lots of ways to go bankrupt or be forced to close and few to save itself. The company has put up a mighty struggle, but dwindling assets and sinking sales are a deadly combination that it likely cannot recover from.
