It is OFFICIAL they want MORE MONEY : NEW ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

by raymond frantz in

i just came back from the meeting .although the local announcements have been abolished recently as an item for the second part , an elder came on the platform to announce that the society needs more money and there is a letter on the noticeboard for all the congragation to read to this effect.

although the announcement was read half heartedly (this elder's daughter is an apostate ,it looks like he knows what's going on) the implictions are dramatic .

the society in brief,requests any brother or sister with funds sitting on personal accounts to loan them to the society ,he didn't go into any specifics but i will take a picture of the letter next time and make it available here .. i'm not amazed that they're asking for money ,i thought it will happen sooner or later .what i'm amazed is that 99% of the congragation are oblivious to the financial crisis that the society finds itself these days and the reasons why .i can see the future now .the watchtower will be the fist part of the babylon the great to go down in a blaze of scandals and financial troubles !.

I called three different elders from different Kingdom Halls, no letter was read according to these true believers. They don't know there is a lawsuit going on, was this from Franz's Kingdom Hall?

Money is being used to develop Kingdom Hall properties to house old Bethel, Missionaries and Traveling members, money from the drone-bees that is!

I doubt the Society would ask for cash in such an ambigeous manner, questions would start to stack up. Again, I think they don't want to draw unwanted attention to this nasty issue most JWs don't know about.

The Watchtower has the money to pay, it's a matter of figuring out which corporate shell they are going to open up to pay bond expense.

The New York Times had the article years ago "How Donald Trump Could Learn A Lesson From The Jehovah's Witnesses", dealing with "how cheap Bethel bought these properties, used free labor to finish them up. Even with lower prices they still made a fortune off their investments, don't let anyone tell you anything different. They are real-estate savy, not knuckleheads when it comes to money and investment income.

Do you regret confessing your sins to the elders?

by asilentone in

yes, i do!

i did it 20 years ago, but the elders still remember what i did, sometimes i wish they never knew about it.

You are aware that these sins were recorded with some Secretarys, put away in a safe-box, Secretary's home or the Kingdom Hall safe.

I thought this was wrong policy if the sins were not super-evil, evil sins that merit police involvement needed to be reported to the coppers. Elders and some naging hens know your sins from their husband's loose lips after drinking, or the token used for sexual payment to his big nose wife, who demanded good gossip for basic sex.

thank's for the new word "eisegesis", while reading your article on jesus christ's mediatorship between mankind and the annointed (now governing body) 144,000.. you content is very good as you present your case with valuable insights without attacking witnesses as "morons, idiots, cult" or like some other agencies do!

cheerio!.

Paul your site is beyond wonderful!

I found the old letter to the UK Guardian and compared it to the Watchtower's spin on their United Nations connection, do they ever accept responsiblity for their errors?

The blame alway's falls on the mythical "a few zealous followers" for everything (1914, 1925, 1975), the strangest blame I read was their assumption Jesus Christ was angry they left out information from Rutherford's (Fred Franz's work?) of one of their "Finished Mystery Volumes". dealing with the imprisonment of the Drinking Judge and his bar-maids.

We can't call them the Borg, it's wrong because the collective worked for the "whole", Star Trek's whole took responsiblity for their drones actions. Not the case with the Watchtower, fast to deny any responsiblity for their leadership, shit is thrown on their drone bees! In Nature, the Drone bees don't have much a life either, first to starve, fight and die while the Queen of the Hive run's and hides to another location (Patterson Farms). With Star Trek's Borg, they developed quickly to the attacks launched against them, this data was shared with the drones that enabled them to develop a resistance against weapons used against the Borg. No sharing takes place with the drones at WT HeadQ, drones easily replaced! I hope this make's sense to Trekkies!

kensho.

The friends hear the word "Emergency" and their minds spin like a Vegas Slot Machine! I hate how Witnesses think fellow Witnesses have special insights in to the mind of Jehovah God.

Perhaps at the "Emergency Kingdom School" they could introduct Witnesses to Jesus Christ of the Nazarenes? Witneses are fearful of Jesus Christ because he offers them freedom they wish to hand over to men.

Four years ago do you remember when elders were traveling to Bethel to receive the Holy Spirit from the Governing Body? The first two brothers to go walked around like Bantam Roosters, bragging of the special priveldge of hearing secret insights about Jehovah.

The Kingdom Schools were a failure, almost everyone who went to those schools does not practice what the Society admonished them to do!

Megan and Candace Casualties of Known Molesters

by Dogpatch in

written by barbara anderson wednesday, 07 november 2012 00:05. in most child sexual abuse cases the abuser is someone the child knows and trusts relatives, neighbors, coaches, teachers, ministers.

and, incredibly, in too many of these cases, the abuse was preventable because the abuser was known by others to have molested before, but that fact was not known to those who could have protected the child.. .

in 1994, both megan and candace were sexually abused and megan died at the hands of convicted pedophile, jesse timmendequas, who was a known child molester.

I pray Jehovah's Witnesses are told the truth about who is a pedophile in their congregations, our Org has pushed out victims and allowed predators to slander them. The Watchtower by keeping men in positions because of their rules might be their down fall!

Randy, how are you feeling after your bike incident? I was thinking about you as I saw some guy ride down the street and a car almost hit him. I thought, "damm, that guy could have been slammed into the ground!" and your story came to my mind. I hope you are doing better and deal with the pain, may Jesus bless you! Randy, I had someone ask me if you still believe in God, they found your "Free Minds" but missed your "mission statement" or anything that indicates what your beliefs are.

You can't say anything to anyone who is unwilling to think, the Organization offers beat-up individuals a chance to feel normal among people with higher educations, more wealthy, and a higher social status.

My country is sick

by sabastious in

this is a melancholy day for me.

over the past few years i have been studying american politics and have enjoyed learning perspectives from different ideologies.

i personally lean towards conservative values when it comes to creating legislature, however i am socially liberal.

NC, BizzyBee and other social progressives, how can you tolerate the mad rantings of the White Racists, "Women stay at home barefoot, naked and pregnant" Republicons and their rhetoric?

Did you see the Arkansas Judge who road his horse to the polls in great pomp and fanfare? Rick Perry, Rick Santariums are no longer going to win the Presidential Office, racists, pseudo-Bible thumping fake christians are the party of the past. Two miles from my house a redneck as a sign in front of his house "Put the White back in the White House" with his Confederate Flag. He has written to the editor complaining of the hate phone calls, hate mail, and tagging on his property. Why are Americans so intolerate of radical T-bagger racists?
