  With the current discussion if someone in his twenties can be elder or not. I'm interested in what a elder in jw land really do. All speeches already come in video format from headquarters. Ask elder advice about what? Everything is written in watchtower library. Use as google for any subject. There answer to any question is pray more, read bible more or go out in field service more. There only job to me is a control mechanism GB use to force there will over congregations. Like GBs own little spyware in Cong. Checking nobody is thinking for himself or don't compare watchtower teachins too what bible say. I mean it's forbidden for JWs to speculate or have another opinion on spiritual things then what GB has. He can't really study the bible and teach thing's from the bible. Cause if things are not according to org teachings it's gonna be considerad as apostasy. So what's the point with elders. Everything else in a congregation can be done by systers or 19 year old brother. Meaning see if territory is preach or open kingdom hall's. Crazy org 😂

  SETTING LIMITS ON HOW TO LOVE by the the Guardians of Our Doctrines (G. O. D)

  by Longlivetherenegades in

  a balanced view of jesus’ role.

  like those in christendom, the early bible students mistakenly allowed their love for jesus to overshadow their relationship with jehovah.

  beginning in 1919, however, they came to see that jehovah and their relationship with him should be the focus of their worship.

  Think back in the 30s this org was change to a preaching cooperation. After that does in GB were not much interested in agape. Everything was abouth hours. Every appointment was base on how many hour field service. Rutherford was the man behind lots of this ideas maeby.

  i have been on m any different forums, and only carm is similar to this.. all the rest have rather hypocritical trust in god.. this and carm are for those who apostate to the wtbs and to god.. turned off by the gb, or hypocritical examples in the congregation, they drop worshiping god and their belief in the bible... for they know too much,.

  that's why scripture isn't discussed, and jws like me, are demonized.. i am cool with that!

  maybe some of you will come to their senses!.

  When it comes to charisma, intelligent and education, they seem to be same level all of them. But Morris family i read are wealthy. That counts a lot in this org.

  Has the GB been hijacked by Tony Morris? Hes the host many times on jw videos. Saying GB members wanting him too host. Many decisions taken by GB are things i heard Tony Morris talk about in his speeches years ago. How you should only marrie appointed brothers. Baptism of children. Appointments of younger JWs. His hate for homosexuell in jw videos. I'm starting to wonder if he's taken over GB and makes the decisions. I have met some elder brothers with serious mental problems. Only reason they become elders was them being pioneers. They are really hard to get rid of after they have received a appointment. Morris gonna be around giving speeches and taking decisions for a long time ;-)

  Wow really weird. They are truly desperate. In ways i can understand this one. If they go online and have zoom meetings basically an elder is person that can turn on zoom and stuff. Younger people are better with apps. Let's see what happens. There were letter like this about elders helping the young to grow back in the 90s. A lot of them actually. Didn't go anywhere. Elders wouldn't let go off power. Bet you not much gonna change this time.

  Lots of people love and respect Gods name. They think it's horrible a organization that has Gods name is losing child abuse case's and lot's of other things going on( to many to mention). In old Jerusalem there would go out a warning and a repent after. People would go into moaning. You, like many other JWs seem too think this is the greatest thing ever happened ( situation org is in). So let it be that way. Go to jw.org and get ear's tickled.

  Annual service report - yet another analysis - big trouble for the WTS

  by FFGhost in

  there's already been a couple of threads on the 2021 report with insightful comments, but i'm vain enough to want to start my own topic with some additional thoughts..... as others on the other thread noted, it's useful to compare the 2021 numbers not only to 2020 but also 2019 (the last non-pandemic report).. there are some really troubling (if you're a wt headquarters guy) news in the latest report.. 1) baptisms plummet.

  2021 - 171,393. baptisms dropped 20% in 2020, and 30% more in 2021. the total drop from 2019 to 2021 is an amazing 44%.. one could argue that without in-person assemblies and conventions you'd expect baptisms to drop.

  but....if someone really wants to get baptized, jws will find a way.

  Problem is if you are a beliver. Shouldent work speed Up? Are not KHs supposed to teaching ground for teaching in new system. Why are they being sold? Why are congregations being removed? The numbers are no suprise. Cause things going downhill from the 90s. Question is why Gods organisation ( according to tesachings) is not being bless?

  i hope to make a very interesting post here, and informative.

  i’m quite sure no one here has heard this content.

  i would like to finally make known some heretofore undisclosed details concerning something that has affected probably everyone on this board to some degree.

  Like Jesus Said People can predict the next days weather if the sighns are there. How come people can not see the end of this org soon when there are so many things pointing to it? Think this org is the first to go.
