The women anchors would be required to wear head coverings...
That would be interesting. The Dubs would go into Pharisee mode to interpret what constitutes a head covering..đ
They would be forced to find something that qualifies as a head covering while not appearing too culty..

the 10-20 wt study "how to save relatives".
according to wt writers, it is the unique beliefs, doctrines are what saves people at armageddon.
but not a peep about them, instead it is love bombing.
Not accepting all bible doctrine, especially those unique to the WT, means youâre an apostate, assuming you are a born-in, or converted at some point.
This means you are destined for destruction. Hell, even inactive ones are going to be killed.. This comes straight from the mouth of Tomo the whiskey bandit.

i saw this mentioned on reddit but no link - i found the article form this weeks bible study..... in the âcongregation bible studyâ part of the meeting this week there was a part that said and i quote: âonly jehovah god and his son can receive someone into the heavenly kingdom or the paradise on earth under that kingdom.
we should diligently cultivate friendship with them by using what material riches we have in supporting kingdom interestsâ.

All organized religions become more corrupt in direct correlation to their size as all hierarchical structures moves towards corruption.
Its simple: The bigger the hierarchy, the more moving parts exist and the more it leans towards corruption.
The JW religion only differs in its legalistic approach and focus on âundeserved kindnessâ vs Grace. Even if youâre an Xian saved through Grace, you are still pressured to donate money, especially in a larger organization because they need even more money.
In the end it doesnât matter if youâre in a small Church or Mega-Church. You gotta keep the lights on, as they say. We all know that God isnât paying the light bill, so humans have to do it.
We may never be rid of cults as a species, but maybe we will find a way to manage them, and only those that are accountable to society and completely transparent while helping the community will exist in the future.
Thatâs going to be impossible unless:
1) Xianity is true.
2) Xianity goes back to the model of the 1st Century; that being small, independent congregations actually being directed by God.
Thatâs my two cents, and No Tomo, you canât actually have my two cents.

i went to my sister's house because she was cleaning out the garage and she thought i must have tons of stuff left there.
i didn't but there was a box of unplaced mags in one.
i pulled out one when i got home and it was this one.. i'm sure that if i had read it when it came out, i would have felt that the wt had feelings of sadness over these children.
What Pete said! Where are the Podcasts, Radio broadcasts, Netflix specials, ect?? Surely if the WTBTS was the one...true..religion restored by God in the time of the END then his chosen representatives would be shouting from the rooftops..
Persecution be damned! Weâre talking the fate of mankind here!!
Hey, GB!! Just call Leah Remini. Iâm sure she will get you some air time. Or just show up in court and get on the stand, people will listen. Or call every news outlet and tell them you have the most important story that they will ever hear..
Oh, youâre busy with your Trolly cart ministry??

this morning, this article appeared on our national online news channel; the abc.. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-10-10/jehovahs-witness-abuse-exposed/11561776.
no-zombie.
The Borg doesnât want to join the scheme as that is admitting guilt. Remember we are talking about a group of narcissistic men.
Until they have their official spin ready for print, they donât want the sheeple knowing the true extent of the problem.
They probably have articles pre-written for various scenarios.

I hope Jaracz is on it, along with fellow pillow biters like Gary Breaux. I canât even believe the Jaracz thing isnât getting more coverage...
Is it because we just arenât shocked anymore?

so with the news that they are remodeling patterson and expanding warwick, where are the funds going to come from?.
could this be a ruse like the need for thousands of kingdom halls proclaimed a few years back only to be replaced with the we realized the halls were not at capacity and the great sell-off began?.
maybe the hope is going to be that the sheep will give give give and then all of the sudden, after prayerful consideration the gb have determined that the current resources are sufficient to create the needed media and content.. my bet is that in 10 years it will all be consolidated to warwick and walkill and patterson will be sold to who i have no idea, but they own a ton of property in upstate ny..
Theyâre very greedy and perhaps delusional true believers, and they arenât going to spend any of their own money if they donât have to. It doesnât matter if they have Billions in the bank, thatâs not to be touched unless absolutely necessary.
They have spent decades brainwashing the sheeple into thinking that giving money pleases God, just like all Organized religious slime-faced, lying weasels and their ilk. Thereâs no way they can just say, âWe have enough money!â
Can you imagine what would happen?? Once people know that they can achieve financial goals and taste success, they arenât going back to being poor slaves. You canât put that Genie back in the bottle.
I want the Borg to burn as much as the next guy, but if they can spin the Sex Abuse cases as persecution, and gain sympathy, then they can get even more $$$.
These lawsuits may benefit them in the long run.

matthew 18:17 says that the christian congregation* was to be informed of an unrepentant sinner & their sin.
confirmation of this directive was given by paul to timothy.
(1 timothy 5:20).
The WTBTS teaches a Two-Class Xian system. They donât really believe that all JWs are part of the Congregation, or body of the Christ.
They really teach that only the very few âgenuine anointedâ are part of that body and that the âother sheepâ are clinging to the skirt of the âSpiritual Jewâ aka âgenuine anointedâ with that nebulous group being under the direction of the Governing Body.
Perhaps someday we will get one of the GB on the stand and a clever Lawyer will wring the truth from them.
I remember reading the Hayden Covington transcripts while awakening; seeing their true faces exposed was eye-opening to say the least.
Is it any wonder that the WTBTS has done everything it can to ensure the GB never take the stand?

the annual meeting (2019) is happening as i am posting this.. any comments yet or information from what is being presented?.
rub a dub.
The last one I cared about ( had to attend...) was when the Silver Sword ( Bible for Dummies ) was released.
It was all that I could do to sit through it. Seeing grown men cry at the loving âprovisionâ of the GB was one of the last straws for me. It convinced me that all believing Dubs suffer from mental illness.

i'm sure that the agm is in october but has a date for it been released?.
