Did you know, they switch from a normal insurance to a insurance run by the bOrg? (I was told so.) This book look like bs, but when something happen to you, it can get very interesting if you get money or not. This is the reason why everybody need to sign it. -

Is the 'growth™' still being hyped?
by punkofnice inwhen i was a member of watchtower corporation, i regularly heard how it must be the true religion because of the growth™.
(phenomenal, apparently).. i wonder if they still hang onto this?
has it been boasted about at meetings recently?

There was a study article I think at the beginning of 2016 or end 2015 which mention senseless facts and that the growth is god blessed. (I'm only on my phone, can't research at the moment.)It was stupid, but yes, the GB stuck to the lie of rising numbers. -

Commercial activism.
by Ben131895 inin his last couple of vlogs, john cedars is wearing a t-shirt saying shunned.
some people liked it and asked him if they could purchase one.. in his last vlog (#111) he is advertising it and mentioned the link www.apostee.com, based in the us.
comments attached to vlog # 110 mentioned the fact that this company will close in april and that the business will be continued by cedars itself, who has also a stock of anti-witness items.. besides that, he was not the owner of jwsurvey.org, but since january 16, 2016 he is.. it looks (as mentioned before by simon in an earlier thread), this guy is making a living from his activism, a paid career.. one should seriously question his true motives, demonstrated in his activism.

Activism cost time, money and energy. If somebody spend nearly all his time, money and energy for activism, lift it up to a professional level and keep the work going, where's the problem? Where should he get his money from? The server from jwsurvey.org not for free, the protection for the website is not for free, his journeys not for free, the videos cost time, software and so on. I think it's easy to attack a person, but I think there not much people out there, they do so much. Also, it is not anythink like the WTG, spending money is not a part of salavation. You can do it or not. I know some activists, they always struggle with some money issue's when the like to make more for the activism.
So if you able to be an activist, make more as cedar and do it for free, I'm happy to hear from you, your website and your youtube-channel.

Some gems from the "Anointed" WT study
by NotBlind ini know this has been discussed before, but i think some of these wacky (but thought-provoking) comments deserve their own thread.. paragraph 6 says: modestly, anointed ones acknowledge that they do not necessarily have more holy spirit than those with an earthly hope.
they do not claim to have special knowledge or revelations; neither do they try to prove that they are in some way superior.
somebody needs to send this memo to the gb.

I found this a way better:
Paragraph 6:
"Some may have had a rather sudden realization of their calling, while others experienced a more gradual realization."
Paragraph 9:
"Simply put, by means of his holy spirit, God makes it clear to that person that he is invited to become a future heir in the Kingdom arrangement."
Paragraph 15:
"In fact, if you are wondering whether you have received the heavenly calling, that would in itself indicate that you have not received it."
God make it so clear that they do not have to think about if they are choosen but some of them need time to realize that they are choosen. Make absolut overlapping sense...

Pshycos! - 2016 "Remain Loyal to Jehovah" Regional Convention Program
by thedepressedsoul inwow this is interesting!
i think how much emphasis this puts on "loyalty" shows their is an issue.
they're trying to plug the wholes as much and quickly as possible.

Look up this program again. Did you see that friday is the part of the strange content? On friday nearly no guest attend the convention, so they also hide it for the puplic. -

No, I don't see it this way. Normaly yes. But 2 points make a difference here. It's forbidden literature and the chinese view about books. If you talk to people who was JW when it was forbidden, they don't give the books away like in other countries, they not used in a typical d2d-way. Same in china. And the chinese people normally don't throw books away.
From what I know, mostly they smuggled books to china, no flyer or so.
In conclusion books come to china, given only to the jw and when given away, only for people who study. If they stop, they have to give it back. Also if they don't give it back, they sell it sometimes but don't throw it away.
