  Gorb it’s a good point.

  It could go both ways. Oh I don’t know if he is apostate or promoted serious sin.

  Or…. I can’t contact him because I didn’t know if was apostate or promoted serious sin.

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

  by redsetter2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  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.

  It sounds far fetched about being more permissive to sex things but actually we are almost there already.

  Teenagers who go a bit too far may be a common thing and two elders will just ask the parents have you got it in hand? If they say yes then there is no judicial committee.

  it’s getting that way for adults too. This is the most common reason for DFed and now there will be less JCs

  JWlite like being a Trekkie. You know it’s fictional

  by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

  i now view jwlite like the trekkie conventions.

  star trek is fiction and all the fans know this full well.

  but they find it beneficial.

  Even in the Trekkie world there are some who are no longer strong in the faith. They are just not as interested as they used to be. So I hear.

  The real zealot Trekkies don’t give them are a hard time or shun them, or give them special encouragement to return to Star Trek 🤣

  but JWs can now be the same as a Trekkie who has lost interest in what brought them together in the first place.

  many JWs stay on as JWlite just for family and friends social club. There is nothing wrong with this.

  In fact most religions have majority of members in the light category and JWs are slowly turning into the same

  The consequences are losing the government benefits

  plus there have been other court cases where they lie about shunning and say it’s only spiritual things we don’t talk about but there is no shunning going on at all

  ”of course we still talk to those who leave JWs and treat them as before but just don’t talk about spiritual thing”

  this is a bold faced lie.

  but we have been conditioned into thinking it’s ok to lie for Jehovah. If they don’t deserve the truth in court of something then it’s ok to tell lies for Jehovah

  New light on shunning?

  by Mikejw in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  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 ?.

  In addition to what Tonus stated, back in the 1970's there was a period of time when the shunning was relaxed towards DF who were not continuing to practice sin and not opposers to the WT, such as someone attending with the intent to be reinstated.

  I have heard older ones talk about this change. It would not be surprising if they flip flopped back again into a modern equivalent of the old light.

  yes I can easily see an updated understanding of only having to shun those who are really bad and no need to shun those who are good people who just don’t believe anymore?

  but who gets to decide which category each individual fits in? If they leave it upto JWs then some loved ones will have exceptions

  As I understand things, the American HQ does not support financially countries once the work is 'established'. As a result if Norway ends up in the red, its will be allowed to die on the vine. And in the end we would expect the Norwegian Brothers to see more halls going up for sale and congregation mergers. But I do feel that there is a little more time before we see this happening, as the local Branch could start encouraging publisher 'donations' more ... or put higher levies on the assembly halls, to make up the difference.

  Maybe they would try to move donations from Norway to another country so as to avoid paying tax on them.

  They did lose charity status in France a few decades ago. They had to start paying fair 40% tax on all donations.

  they sneakily moved everything to the UK and even tried to illegally move donations to the UK

  New website -Testimonies on the adverse events of anti Covid-19 vaccination campaigns among Jehovah's Witnesses.

  by was a new boy in

  'jehovah's witnesses are heavily vaccinated due to guidance given from july to december 20211 by the governing body.many witnesses have had serious adverse effects following vaccination campaigns and, for the most part, have had great difficulty in expressing them and having them recognized.this website was made to allow each witness touched by these vaccination campaigns to express it so that the community takes it into account.'.

  Some say there is no way to get the spike protein out of you once it’s been injected into your system. It’s blasting away until it ruins your health and kills you.

  but just keep following the direction of the GB even if it doesn’t make sense as they are Jehovah’s channel on Earth since 1919😭

  Yes same as long time Trekkie not so interested in Star Trek as they used to be, but just love the social aspect.

  It’s like a Trekkie enjoying being a Trekkie and all the meet ups and all the friends who share a common interest. You may not be all that interested in start track anymore but you have such good friendships so you pretend you are still interested. Maybe loads of your friends are the same you and are also just pretending to be still interested in Star Trek as it’s a common thread that you all share.

  The GB would hate it if they got wind of large numbers compared to Trekkies.
