The Watchtower wins either way...
If they're "banned", it's because they're God's chosen people.
If they're NOT "banned", it's because they're God's chosen people (because the letter-writing worked)
They covered their bases as usual...
i just watched the live feed from the russian court room and followed the updates on the russian exjw forum.. just waiting for confirmation from other sources...but, it looks like the final (and expected) result is:.
banned.
which means that the wts property in russia now belongs to the russian state..

recently there was a thread where someone asked if there was a copy of crisis of conscience they could purchase.
raymond franz it seems had limited resources yet he was able to provide crisis of conscience in printed form to what?
thousands?
It seems the Rothschild family has successfully halted any further reproduction of Ray's books... This has reached a dead end.
don't know which saturday it is but it's an open house for the surrounding community.
while on the your tour group , ask tough questions about the organization's policies on pedophiles and shunning.
do this as a concerned citizen and not a "raging apostate" .

this is part of the clam meeting this week.. how contradictory is it?.
first, they instruct people to avoid inactive ones and to shun them and to treat them the same as da'd or df'd ones, .
Do Not Give Up
19, 20. Why should we maintain a positive attitude regarding a prodigal child?
19 Helping a “prodigal” child ‘come to his senses’ requires patience and can be a challenge to parents and others. But do not give up. “Jehovah is not slow respecting his promise, as some people consider slowness, but he is patient with you because he does not desire any to be destroyed but desires all to attain to repentance.” (2 Peter 3:9) We have the Scriptural assurance that Jehovah wants people to repent and live. In fact, he has taken the initiative in making an arrangement to reconcile humans to himself. (2 Corinthians 5:18, 19) His patience has made it possible for millions to come to their senses.—Isaiah 2:2, 3
My note:
According to Cambridge Dictionary, when someone "comes to his senses", this means that he is starting to understand that he has been behaving stupidly. Thanks Gibbering Buddies for calling us "Inactive Ones" STUPID.
just your thoughts....i've been all over this site, everyone says, that if jehovah was backing the org.
then why so many things happen in the org.
child abuse, shunning, and so on....but my question or thought is why is the banning of witnesses all over the media, but the arc isn't wasn't picked up in the media, like this (oh little leaks here and there, but nothing major) nothing like the nyt or any major media venue where the friends would see it and couldn't deny it, even if they wanted to....why does the media care more about banning witnesses than child abuse...i know even if the arc was exposed many of the friends would stay, but would be shamed, because they talked about other religions...or maybe jehovah is bringing the org.
The Rothschild family controls most of the media worldwide and they also control many of the offshore banks used the Watchtower to deposit the proceeds of the sale of their Brooklyn properties which were sold to investors linked to the Rothschild empire.
i am convinced that world history will go on and on, and don't believe in an end time scenario.. but... and... .
when events occure like trumps tomahawk strike on syria, putting bombing a place and many, many coalitions are made with friends and enemies, my thought are going back to a 40 years ago, when i was a litle boy raising up in a cold war naval harbour town in northwest europe.
my jw grandfather learned me to investigate history.
Reminds me of the yellow book "1000 years" where I was continuously confounded by references to Gog of Magagog and twisted personal interpretations by Whacky Freddy of Bible prophecy. I was about 10 years old or so. What a strange time.
got this in my inbox today, thought it was kind of interesting.
i like the wording "all proceeds go to non-profit programs.
" i wonder what all exactly the "branch resource recovery team" gets involved in?.
Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

jw special conventions.
who's going?.
are you "special" enough to be chosen?.
My special specialty is being special... especially when special conventions require special specialists like me to make these special conventions even more special through my special demonstration of my special specialties among all the other special specialists in a way that is especially special.

the jehovah’s witnesses leadership (in northern spain) requested that a local material supplier (owned by rank-and file jws) not divulge that a million euros are unaccounted for.
the cult leadership requested peace from the congregation so as to put pressure on the material company’s owners (who are jws) and thereby avoid any possible litigation.. this case affects a well-known construction supply company with its headquarters in a large northern city.
Old Hippie... I didn't realize that "solid documentation" was required before posting friends' stories on this site. I don't have any friends' stories yet, but I'll be sure to remember this if I ever post any of my friend's stories in the future. Thanks for alerting us about this very important posting guideline.
from cronica (spain).
jehovah's witnesses 'plugged' a one million euro entrepreneurial hole.
the cult asked to maintain the "peace" of a congregation in galicia to avoid that the case of emptying of the company reached civil justice.. jws asked to hide a million-euro business hole at a supply company in la coruña (galicia).
Sorry Dark... I think you may have misread... Although what you stated in the title of your post may actually happen, I don't think it has yet.
