First video from the convention is all about FEAR
by raymond frantz inhttps://youtu.be/cdzydtuoblw?si=tyr8hgdgaiyn7c4h.
this was leaked only few days ago and it's a small segment of the video from the 2024 convention that has already started.
the video shows a jw logo down while worried jws are watching it as a news item on their tv screens, others are seen hiding from the police, others driving is the countryside to escape the authorities.

They do seem to be prepping the R&F for possible arrests. Their attorneys have stopped trying to fight in court, a tell tale sign that they know they are in the sights of law enforcement. Spinning it as persecution may be their only way to keep the whole crowd from walking out.

How has 3 years of inflation affected WTC?
by ThomasMore inthe current u.s. administration and the fed says inflation is hard to tame.
it was over 9% at it's peak.
one of the greatest increases is price of food, something that everyone feels to some extent.

I can’t say but I am concerned about the many Bethelites who might find themselves desperate if WTC cuts them. Already many have been sent packing and the ones I know are having a difficult time getting by. Most don’t have even Social Security.

Jaracz was a real joy at Bethel also. I never heard a single good word about him from anyone. Seriously, not a single good word.

Kingdom Hall Insurance
by NotFormer inthat the wt "self insures" kingdom halls has come up in occasional conversations on here.
how exactly does that work?
do they* actually set aside a portion of the monthly remittance from each kingdom hall and save into a pool to cover damage etc.

In my years as a JW, I don’t ever recall WTC reimbusing any cong for expenses that were covered by the “self insurance”.

Overlapping Generation
by pandorasbox1914 inthe september 2015 broadcast had david splane explain matthew 24:34 “truly, i say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place”.
his explanation of this scripture was by means of a chart to indicate an overlapping generation.. .
no scripture was used to show the overlapping generation concept, and as a result it makes no sense.. to illustrate how crazy this concept is, look at the lyrics of the song my generation.. my generation.

WTC can call it anything they want but it was a desperation attempt to avoid the consequences of a failed prediction - pure and simple.
Since they were forced to amend the 1914 generation teaching, there has been no substitute teaching that follows any logic. Remaining JW's (minus those who are not actively planning to fade or DA) cannot explain what the current thinking is. This is a REAL problem for the GB who surely know that they are one pivotal moment away from having to admit that they have no clue.
These men don't seem to have a plan to address the elephant in the room other than growing beards and allowing women to wear pants to the meetings.

Current blood card?
by carla ini have a question regarding the current blood card- did the blood card always have a spot where the jw gives the elders the authority to pull the plug (so to speak) and to admit them to a long term facility?
as well as no blood, naturally.
if the elders have no financial responsibility how is this possible?

Only named individuals on the DPA have authority, and ONLY when the person is incapacitated. HLC have zero say if they are not specifically named on the document - as one would expect.
It is/was common for HLC to skirt HIPPA in attempts to circumvent privacy and control the situation. Some sincerely think that they are justified but it is still illegal. Nurses still get fired for violating patient privacy. Putting hospital personnel in a position that could cost them their job is really thoughtless. Violations of this type can follow a medical worker as they seek employment after job loss.
