  from the audio of the kms posted by kent the other day, it's enlightening to listen to the talk on the inactive.

  watch for the tell-tale signs the elders are to look for in the notes that follow:.

  congregation book study overseers assisting the inactive.

  Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread

  by Simon in

  this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.

  latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.

  the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

  Social structure is starting to break down. Disregard of traffic laws, burglaries are going up. When the rent really comes due there will be mobs incited by handlers in the background. Police impersonators are out. So much for the gun scenario.

  The brothers are testing the emergency contact stuff. So far a cluster.

  Now we are supposed to have masks. No sewing machine.

  i was watching the local news in the background and i heard a guy talking about 3m and how florida was getting screwed.

  i didn't hear the whole report.. later, i was switching through the channels and i saw the same guy talking to tucker carlson (fox news).

  come to find out he is the federal cdc equivalent at the state level.

  What's up with old geezers in the Bible?

  what the hell is the problem with the famous “men of old” in the bible?

  for some strange reason those old geezers (and some not so old) could not recognize who they were screwing?.

  my wife was listening to this week’s bible reading about jacob, laban, and the sisters leah, and rachael.

  Saving Money While Stuck At Home

  so you're stuck at home, you may be worried about your income, welcome to the world of filling your stuck-in-the-house time with saving some money!.

  here in canada, our energy costs are going up because we have a carbon tax.

  today, in the middle of the crisis, trudeau is raising it by 50%, probably as some perverse "thank you" to all the truckers delivering vital goods.

  WT, and more contact, Do you think it is Narc Hoovering?

  the behavior from the org lately had me a bit confused, as it seemed to fall outside of their norm.

  i'm not talking the hardcore armageddon wishers texting each other about peace and security, etc.

  * but, the elders contacting people daily, and having extra meetings where they have all their additional rules.

  That slamming the pharisees in the book study part about the widows mite made me think how they worry about outward appearances; dressing up for zoom, acting pious. Look in the mirror

  Heard the letter. No mention of aid flowing back. The elders have a list of phone numbers for unemployment, health agencies, all the gov. programs. No mention of starting a food bank, or mentioning salvation army, catholic relief, or mormon charities.
