This all depends how you view it. If its from wordly cooperation view point, they doing bad.
If its from a belivers bible view focus on bless or not. Its over for Them.
ok so this is a topic i've pondered and go back and forth on.. i can easily see a point where lawsuits cause massive deficits in the organization.
honestly i feel like we are seeing the tip of the iceberg in regards to lawsuits on child abuse.
to me it looks like the property sell offs are to be able to get ready for this.

Dont know how they are selected.
so that statement was made by an elder to a disfellowshipped brother, during a reinstatement meeting.. this statement is made here at around 4.
10 mins in.. the full story of this man is incredibly sad.
in fact i've rarely listened to an exjws story that has affected me quite so much.
They have huge problem the organization. They want people who seek appointments to work on the fruits of the spirit. But it just not happening.

You are wrong when you say videos like this would affect jws so they would abandon organization. They usually don't put that much attention on meetings and such. What JWs don't like is donating or helping other financially. Put like other religions a tilth 10% of salary goes to donations and JWs will run and hide.
hi guys, long time without paying a visit to this site.
today i returned to check a 'gossip' that is running around in brazilian exjw forums.. they are stating that is almost certain they will make a big change in their doctrine maybe this year yet in the annual meeting.
they say people in warwick were commenting on this.
After the overlapping generation 'new ,light,' that no one understood, it's only fanatic's that go around waiting for new light from headquarters.
as a "deep pimo" i can say that there is a confirmed re-branding.
the coordinators committee formed a focus group from service and teaching committees.
the results of that group roughly three+ years ago, with gb approval, trickled down to the other committees and eventually into what we have been seeing before our eyes in the org and local congs.. pick an organizational level and see the shift.
There's been a shift in organization wise to be more loving to attract people from district. But they are focusing on getting the shift to younger ones. The olders ones think most of hours and showing up at meeting. They or a lost case and don't think the organization see any future with them anyways.
i wrote this letter to organization some years ago.
they never responded.
what was the arrangement in the old jerusalem?.
I wrote this letter to organization some years ago. They never responded. So as it biblical I'm gonna share it. There's biblical text to everything written even if there not included. Forgive for grammar and spelling. Not a English speaker. If you are not of beliver no need for commenting.
1 Timothy 4:13 Until I come, continue applying yourself to public reading,+ to exhortation,* to teaching. 14 Do not neglect the gift in you that was given you through a prophecy when the body of elders laid their hands on you.+ 15 Ponder over* these things; be absorbed in them, so that your advancement may be plainly seen by all people. 16 Pay constant attention to yourself and to your teaching.+ Persevere in these things, for by doing this you will save both yourself and those who listen to you.
What is the requirements for a public reader?
When did the platform arrangement started?
Has there been a absorption in its so the progress and advancement been seen by everyone?
Does "everyone" mean Satan so he doesn't come with accusations?
What was the arrangement in the old Jerusalem?
Temple in Jerusalem was built with gold and preciuos stones and God controlled every facet of the Temple. Does that mean God has high requirements for his platform and special interest in it?
The tribe of Levi were the singers and public readers. Does that mean basic for being good reader is singing in God's eyes?
Bible say singers practice day and night. Is that what Bible consider being "absorb" in this practice?
What would be probably the best arrangement for the new system?
Why did holy spirit write this in this old system and not wait for the new system to advance the platform?
If the theocratic school started 1940s is 1 book sufficient for such an important part of Godly devotion?
Or would be the the right arrangement what the Levites had with was part of the donations, place to practice,(temple) and trainer's?
Paulus planted. But is the obligation of watering so the congregation could grow spiritually given to someone who conducted Bible studies or a DVD? Or was it given to Apollo (or Apollo class)? With of does would God bless?
Why the first Cristian were willing to help Apollo's with donations and not Paulus? He him self complain that as in the old Temple he had right to donations. But why did the first Christian's more interested in helping Apollo as it seems?
If the platform can't be bless cause the progress haven't been there,is Christian hospitality and Christian love the base for the congregations now?
And wouldn't it be wise and loving to inform the congregation of the situation we are in now so they could amplify this facets even more?
If Paul and Timothy were of the anointed,are the anointed then responsible for intense occupation and a development that's obvious to everyone of the platform?
If they haven't completed this and holy spirit have chosen others to fulfill the biblical requirement of preparing what's gonna be the base of the new system.is the organization obligated to find this brothers and help them?
If the 140.000 haven't fullfil the goal with platform. Should they still be traveling around giving speeches?
Is it wise to go from door to door inviting people to assembly's when the teaching base for new system is about 80 years out of date?
Shouldn't the organization protect God's name from Satan's accusations?
In old Jerusalem if one of the singers choose to do the work of one of the guards he would be put to death. If God has such strong view on this subject. Why are not the faithful slave teaching JWs about he's requirements?
supposedly the society sent a letter out on march 14, 1997 to all elders contained an instruction that inadvertently admitted they had a big problem: βthe body of elders should give the society a report on anyone serving or who formerly served in a society-appointed position in your congregation who is known to have been guilty of child molestation in the past.β .
can anyone here confirm/or not that this was a real letter that was sent to elders?.
I remember in the 90s they wrote on watchtower if someone was convicted or have tendency to 'like' children. That person shouldn't seek for any appointments in congregation ππ Like telling an alcoholic in a winery not to taste the wine.
we all know tony the turd has an obsession with boys in tight pants.
i cant help but wonder what he thought about brother nelson (aka.
prince) who was known to squeeze into some tight numbers from time to time?.
Yeah there's been a strong new light last year's.
Now we now God don't like tight pants but he's okay with bears.
He gets sad if brush is less then 2centimeters but gets happy if it's 2 cm.
Soon the light gonna get brighter when we receive the news what kind of colours he likes on pants. And how long the bear can be. Rejoice brother's lights is brighter πππβΊ
