Starting September 01, 2022, the Angels will help in the ministry work
by RULES & REGULATIONS in2022 governing body update # 6. what exciting news david splane has for all jehovah's witnesses ( who for the last three years were spared the house-to-house preaching work ) '' that we'll return to the ministry september 01, 2022. just in time for our world wide campaign to start bible studies.
and, i'm sure the angels are excited too, because it will give them opportunities to help us with our ministry.''.
not only will the witnesses be rusty in their return to the field ministry, the angels in heaven have been sitting idle while the pandemic stopped the house-to-house ministry.

Did becoming a JW influence you to give up something you enjoyed ?
by smiddy3 inwhen i was a teenager a younger fellow workmate was involved in the sport of judo.i got interested and went along to a number of sessions and took to it like a sponge to water ,and as a sport i was happy participating in.. not that much longer another workmate was getting re-activated in the religion of jw`s.
which i had never heard o before and then got interested in that .. conflict : was judo a sport that was compatible with j.w beliefs?
sadly i decided it was not and stopped any further involvement.. to this day i resent that decision i made back then .and i`m 82 years old now.. it was a sport i was comfortable doing and i enjoyed it.and i gave it up because of the religion .who knows what i may have achieved had i continued with it.

Where to s t art?! Bicycle racing, car racing, motorcycles, sex, college, character building military service, school dances, . If course not having a " well paying" job prevented it too.
I still have an aversion to aluminum, but never realized sleeping on my stomach and pointing east ( cardinal, not magnetic) is why I feel bad.

They also beat the dressing up for Jehovah. Interview was an older person who has never had health problems and could hardly wait to get back. Also a true believer in " soon".
Brother SKE ( hardnose) had part on door to door. " you will and follow direction" more rules coming later.

Apostates apparently have their own terminology
by Vanderhoven7 ina dyed in the wool witness actually posted this as if non-witnesses invented unheard of terminology,.
"those who devote their life to criticize jehovah’s witnesses use a lot of very specific expressions and ideas common only to them:.
“8 old men in new york”,.

They used to say there would be convention interviews or talks. I winder if there will be a artfully scripted made up story? Or bloviating like now?
I can see it now: a million standing in the sun with repeaters passing the words back. Will we have leftover binoculars?

Watchtower lawyer fined for misleading the court
by Diogenesister inwatchtower lawyer david brumley has been fined for misleading the court during the discovery process of the montana case.
the result was another 17 months of the courts time and the plaintiff having to produce evidence that wtpa did have a pivotal role in congregational business, which brumley had denied hoping that the courts would take his word for it.
he will be personally responsible for reimbursing the costs accrued by the plaintiff, due to his misleading affidavit.. see mark o donnell's twitter statement here:https://twitter.com/mark_j_odonnell/status/1562205475374043136?t=emdh163jnfi8kb6zch-uga&s=19.

Setting a precedent for future cases?

Looks like oil lamps. That means either oil wells and refineries or whaling.
This is even bigger fantasy than the living by the lake in a milled lumber home eating peaches.

There is an online donation provision for ramapo and www. Some may use it. The local number would be in their collection boxes remember thereis a resolution every year to send a set amount from congregation funds for the mysterious expenses of mother.
Still it is telling.
