This twat waffle clearly has no idea what he is talking about!
not to be overly harsh...but if you just left, what the hell were you thinking?
between 1995 and now, you never did an internet search of "jehovahs-witness" or "watchtower"?
good god.

thursday, august 31. jehovah knows those who belong to him.—2 tim.
2:19.. in recent years, we have seen an increase in the number of those partaking at the memorial of christ’s death.
that trend contrasts with the decrease in the number of partakers that we saw for many decades.
Others may have mental or emotional problems that lead them to believe that they will rule with Christ in heaven.
And that would include all members of the Governing Body. They don't want to share their delusions of grander with other mentals. How christian of them
there was one guy in our hall who got df'd 3 times, on the fourth time he never came back.
i wonder if they told him not to come back?
.
As many times as you let them.
ok. so i'm sitting there at the convention.
the video comes up about 1975 and the fact that the faithful brother in the video maintained his faith in the bible by adhering to the scripture that says:.
'no one knows the day or the hour as to when the lord is coming'.
They are trying to inoculate the sheep for when this issue is brought up.
For them to state this during a convention only means that they are loosing followers over this issue. Going apostate has got to be at an all time high then ever before in history due to the internet.
Hey assholes, you inspired from god mother fuckers are the ones who came up with the date. own it!

most jws i know claim they are happy being in the great crowd.
they'd rather live on a paradise earth and pet lions than go to heaven.. heaven is a place they can't relate to, a place where they don't expect their friends and loved ones to be.. so why are more and more jws claiming to be of the anointed?.
aren't they looked down upon as if they are crazy, proud, ignorant, or engaging in apostate thinking?.
New Light: There must be 144,000 per overlapping generation.
It's right in the bible where it talks about overlapping generations.
my wife and i for the past three months have been caring for a teenage girl who was abused by her parents.
she stole a car to get away, and living in prison was a welcome relief for her.
she was in prison for four years, and the state was going to release her, but she would not go back home.. a co-worker teacher that my wife knows told us the situation, and we agreed o help the girl get back on her feet.. well, she dealt with abuse from all aspects 😔, and is pretty messed up in the head from all of that.. but by being in our home, she was safe and was learning how to deal with her problems.
Much respect to you lancelink for offering to help this person in need.
When my son had seizures two elders came over and told my wife that he could be demon possessed and that it was possible that something that I did could have caused Jah to withdraw his holy spirit from the family.
The doctors cured it with medication.
there was a letter read this week, followed by a talk about all the changes that are coming in the next couple of months regarding merging congregations in the area (va/md/dc) - the letter said that the kh's in the area are only being filled to 48% capacity.
this was music to my ears as i have noticed the decline in attendance in all the neighboring congregations.
they will sell some kingdom halls and merge some congregations.
I'm sure the GB will then lighten the load on publishers by telling them to reduce their contribution by 50% now that two congregations share the same hall.
“there may be occasions when it would be good for us to reconsider a choice or decision.
it could be when the prevailing circumstances change.
jehovah altered his decision at times when circumstances changed.
IMO when they use the term 'WE' they are referring to JW leadership i.e. Governing Body, not the rank-in-file worms.
This is just CIA for some change they will make, not a license for publishers to reconsider any change of direction on their part.
what is the rarest jb book ever printed?
i just bought a copy of the finished mystery and it can be a bit rare.
but i bet there are others much more rare.
Were there two Finished Mystery books? One that had some context that the US government used to lock up Rutherford for sedition and a second version where that content was removed or replaced?
I have a copy of the 2nd version. I think the 1st version is more rare.
Edit to add: I see this was already discussed in another post.
