EnoughIsEnough - if it is a legally binding contract, the point is they are not Jehovah's Organization. That is, in the Biblical sense as in a body of people who belong to Jesus Christ. Jesus is God's Son and a body is comprised of organs. In that way a body is 'organ'ized. Not meaning the 'corp'orate secular/ non-Christian world sense.

Conditions of Watchtower Baptism
by Vanderhoven7 ini understand that there are 80 to 100 questions that would-be witnesses must answer correctly before they can be considered eligible for "christian baptism".
however i have noticed that none of the questions relate to the 607destruction, the 1914 invisible presence and enthronement, or even the 1919 appointment of the faithful slave.. now some may feel my question is ridiculous, but bear with me.. will jehovah's witnesses baptize someone who answers all 100 questions satisfactorily, but rejects 607, 1914 and 1919 and the events the watchtower associates with these dates if they agree not to express their rejection to others?.
your thoughts....

Blues - they are not and never have been Jehovah's Witnesses. Not according to the Bible definition. WT are fakes.
I know elders who do not understand 1914 but who stay in just in case it is right. Others know 100% it is fake and stay in.

Sea Breeze - I think you might have hit on why the audio visual studios. Memes can't be searched as text can. Same would be true of audio visual. So it would require great investment of time to step through all their videos to make the points we have been able to make using text.

Sea Breeze however much a book gets retired, their message of false hope is constantly at hand.
They dig out the thesaurus and redo the same message. Dress it up in modern style.

Jeff have you ever thought that you don't need the Art History degree to do this.
will get your foot in some doors, but a successful outcome depends on what you do after that.
Seriously WT is right - save the fees.
I was surprised when the ministry turned in an art valuation opportunity with some elders. It was not what I was expecting but I did get lessons in how to spot fakes. WT being the biggest fake of them all trying to pass themselves off as Jehovah's Witnesses.

Smoking gun GB can’t get out of this one
by Mikejw inhere in 2022 if anyone says anything against the vaccines even a little bit you are almost apostate.. someone once mentioned all vaccinated sports stars collapsing and someone else said not to speak badly about the gb or by extension jehovah.. the gb can’t get out of this one, it’s gone too far.
it’s now the case that if you speak against the vaccines you are speaking against the gb and by extension jehovah .

question/s for the PIMO
by enoughisenough into maintain the facade of being a jw, when doing the ministry, are you not advocating for the gb?
the bible studies, after all are to get people to understand they can't gain life without the "faithful slave" ( you have to be baptized as jw to survive) .how does it make you feel?
if you are parroting an answer in a paragraph that you know is wrong, how does it make you feel?

Phizzy - I remember getting the Bible out and showing a man various scriptures. He was very interested and invited us in. He did not realise we were Witnesses because we actually were using the Bible! When he understood, he explained why he did not like the Witnesses. It was because his aunt had been a cruelly beaten wife and nothing had been done about it.
It was only later I found out that wife-beating had gone on in the congregation I had been part of. An elder had been beating his wife. This is why you have to leave in the end. If you stay in you are not associating with Christians but with people who are turning a blind-eye to all sorts of wrong doing. Decent people cannot assist with such a cover-up.
In the congregation, you are expected to keep quiet and told the elders are the ones appointed to deal with the matter. These sorts of things are hidden from the new-comer.
Also how many knew of the massive child abuse cover up? Are congregation members allowed to speak about it now? This sister was disfellowshipped in 2019 for simply mentioning the child abuse cover up.

Watch to the end - it is Pfizer speaking - it is only a couple of minutes long.
