i've been recently reinstated & am very happy about it.

i do love righteous (love & justice) and i do hate wickedness ( selfishness & sin).

i do love jehovah and the bible truths & wisdom.

First thing is talk to your group overseer. The elders will help you.
before the elders make efforts to help, try to help yourself first.
invite different ones for a meal, get involved with the congregation. Get to ministry groups and always go for coffee breaks, even if just on zoom.
that way at the meetings you will have ones to talk to and more meaningful conversations.
even if you stay JWlite and don’t fully believe all JW interpretations of the Bible then you can still have hope in the Bibles promises

Gorb I noticed it a lot with Sam Turd. It’s kind of polite nervous laugh, over anything that Sam tries to make funny because they feel they should.
I remember his talk about a new release and he lost the envelope, he said is it here, nope. And everyone polite nervous laughed, then he was like is it over here ah here it is, and people were saying to each other oh he is so funny. But is he really?

So what happens next...

with what is arguably the biggest change to jw life in recent decades (the scrapping of publishers counting hours) what does this lead to?.

in my mind these are the results;.

1) a massive decrease in 'preaching hours'.

There is such a shortage of brothers midweek now they are having sisters take the group and say prayers
how things have changed

They haven’t mentioned 1914 doctrinal changes but sometimes recently they have actually said about 1914 instead of just saying 1914.
When you think about the changes about who will be killed at Armageddon they said we just don’t know, so they are admitting they never knew.
If they even admitted they never knew about 1914 and it was just copying William Miller then it would be too much for average Jdub to take.
They can’t admit this, but then again at some point they will have to. There is no way out, they have painted themselves into a corner

🎄 just thought this not former/vidiot back & forth deserved it's own christmas special !!!🎄.

vidiot6 days ago.

notformer - “…if he does attend a kingdom hall physically, i imagine there're some ‘security’ arrangements in place…”.

General Amnesty For Disfellowshipped

future gb: "please come back!

all is forgiven!".

would it work?
ExBethelitenowPIMA

This is absolutely true the threat of disfellowshipping doesn’t carry the same weight it used to.
Most just ignore the direction to shun. What can the elders do if parents keep having associations with dissed family members?
Would the elders really threaten to disfellowship the parents as well? In the past that may have been a possibility, but these days there wouldn’t be many left in the congregation they are so desperate to cling on to numbers

Further education

2. beliefs
i just saw on a video that there has been a change about further education.

here is a screenshot of a letter that went to all elders.

i am an elder but i don’t remember this one, perhaps it is only for some areas?.

- Any time you mention a critical article or video to a JW, their reply will be that you cannot trust anything posted on the internet because it's likely something apostates have photoshopped or falsified to discredit "the brothers". There is plenty to be said about the bOrganization without having to fake it.
  Anyone who does this is just fueling their persecution complex
  Br Jackson beard was fake
- Just like that letter claiming to be from Bethel saying a U turn on advanced education. JW podcasts YouTube channel insists it’s real but yet to prove it

Thoughts on annual meeting “new light”
by FFGhost in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
so, i finally saw the annual meeting video part 2.. this is the one with the “new light” on who might survive armageddon, vs. those who do not.. in summary, for those of you fortunate enough not to have to sit through it, it’s something like this:.

old light: once the “great tribulation” starts, that’s it for non-jws.

the “door of the ark” is closed.
ExBethelitenowPIMA

No zombie this is such an important point you are making. The tempo has changed, the turmoil going on for the GB flooding us with this quite radical 'new light' (at the moment), the volume of it, for me is more telling than the actual messages themselves..

Yes they keep close on apostate stuff, it’s the way they can tell if when they make mistakes. They could never know that from other PIMIs in Bethel.
This is why AGM 2023 they had to say we make mistakes but r not sorry
