good afternoon,.
i am writing to provide you with an update on our work on charities here in england & wales linked to jehovah’s witnesses.
i know that this email will end up in many different parts of the world – i hope that wherever you are, it is as nice and sunny as it is today in london.. first and foremost, a huge thank you to everyone who has come forward.
Slidin Fastan hour agoHad a long talk with JS today. he is a good guy. I think they are getting a broad well-informed picture. They are limited by their "rules of engagement" however. i think the outcome will be interesting.
How will the outcome be interesting? Do you/we have an indication as to what will occur?
just saw this pop up in my facebook...i laughed out loud in the office and people looked at me.. .
is it just me or is it very ironic to post that scripture with a picture of the hq?
because following men at hq is exactly what they do!.

hi all, just wondering if there's anything going around about the elders receiving instruction from the society to give inactive ones and disfellowshipped ones one last chance to come back?
i ask because i have a still in family member that i received a message from, and urging me to go back.
the elders are apparently saying there is no time left.
I was recently handed the "Return" pamphlet by a local elder. I read it and realized that it doesn't address my personal grievances. I was more moved by the fact that the brother remembered me and cared enough to drop by.
Then I heard that CO week was coming up and it tainted the whole thing. They love making a good report about themselves to the CO!
Curious...I received a text out of the blue from an elder after 4 years fading and not one word...he made some nice remarks then asked if I was ever coming back.
Then I heard from my still-in wife that it was CO visit time...ah that explains it...I never replied to the text until AFTER the CO visit. And the answer was NO!
I too concluded the only reason he was contacting me so was to stroke me off a "one who must be contacted to see if he will return so I can look good in front of the CO" list.
how long will it take for a jw to see that even the overlapping generation is wrong?.
the org waited and waited to see if their interpretation of it came true.
those alive in 1914 would still be alive obviously it didn't and jws have to believe in an overlapping generation.
I think about this a lot and tell my still-in wife that it WILL have to change.
They declare the second group as "advanced in years" so in ten years time it will need to change.
But hey...the definition of a cult is all about changing your beliefs to survive...
if you were a computer programmer and you were to create a simulated automated world, that would constantly evolve and self run after initial designs.
first you would have to code the rules, laws, and core elements of this world.
while this is being coded, the program is not run yet, so none of it exists.

when i found out what was in store for those with the heavenly hope, no thank you.
i love you jehovah.
but i also love the fruits here on earth.
James Mixon18 hours agoWhen I found out what was in store for those with the heavenly hope, no thank you. I love you Jehovah
but I also love the fruits here on earth. The earth Paradise seemed a lot more appealing than flying around
in heaven and looking down on the folks here on earth having fun. Here on earth there is eating, drinking and
sex. Some of the angels got in trouble from viewing all the action here on earth.
My question what is so appealing about JW belief about the heavenly hope?????
Well going by the talk by Anthony Morris III in Finland you get to massacre all the bad humans at Armageddon.
for those who've never read these incredible books by our friend ray franz.. here are links for both.
.
happy reading!.
Er...didn't the owner of the rights of the books have a big hoohah with Cedars about Cedars distributing these books?
in the august broadcast, david splane is shown in a morning worship video.
i just wanted to focus on the end of the video, were he has this to say:.
the governing body loves to get together and discuss the bible.
It seems obvious that there is discontent among JW's that the new GB 2.0 has made a lot of changes very quickly and folks have been saying "That would never have happened if the old timers were still on the GB".
It is very telling indeed...and to be honest I'm glad to see them squirm a bit.
anthony morris iii was representing gb in international convention in helsinki, finland.
in his final talk he mentioned that at the fight of armageddon jesus will fight together with the 144 000. he then reminds the audience that one angel destroyed 185000 assyrians.
so what are "144 000 immortal creatures together with jesus going to do".
Given the change recently that now the anointed, will in effect, be raptured up to heaven during the GT then AM must believe that he will be one of the angels at JC's side wiping out human kind.
He actually believes that...the arrogance from GB 2.0 is very strong...when you add the above to what G.Jackson said in the Aussie Charity Commission investigation where he said he hoped to ask Jesus a question very soon.
As Don Cameron wrote in his book, they are indeed Captives to a Concept.
i discovered this on youtube, it's quite recent:.

the woman's story sounds believable and credible, but i just don't know.
I tell you, some of the shite that gets posted on these forums is mental...and on the increase!
