  Wow. That video by Skeans bragging about how many ex-full time JWs are there. I guess there's no room for the rank and file.

  As for the Rapture, they conveniently forget about Rev 6:11 that says "...until the number was filled of their fellow slaves and their brothers who were about to be KILLED as they had been".

  JWLITE

  by Teddnzo in

  even elders can be part of the new jw lite brigade these days.

  they don’t need to go on door to door anymore and there is no requirement for anything really.. taking meeting parts is all dead easy you could turn up on the day with zero preparation because it’s all in the meeting workbook.. quarterly elders meetings are just old men having a good old natter just like old men do down the pub.. congregations could be likened to pubs or bars these days just without the drinks, those come at other times.. no need for territory maps, these almost went away with covid letter writing now they are extremely slow getting finished as those who still go door to door only do ten mins.. you could even voice your questions these days about things the gb say and then just say “we can’t be dogmatic we just don’t know”.

  i predict they will say this about 1914 soon..

  JWLITE seems similar to 'quiet quitting'.

  They're referencing 1 Cor. 16:1,2, but that collection was for needy INDIVIDUALS, not a corporation.

  I’m not sure what this means!

  by NeedsProof in

  2. experiences

  yesterday i was visited by 2 witnesses, and we had a long chat about lots of things!

  one of them named claire took the lead and i instantly felt some sort of connection to her, after we had spoken and they had left i started to have this overwhelming feeling to research her and what she had spoken about but i couldn’t find her anywhere on any website or social media, so i left it and thought nothing more of it all day….

  however the strange thing is i had a dream that night and claire was in it, many things happened in this dream that i was told i was only allowed to speak about with claire, i can speak of the dream to others but the details only me and claire can know!

  Claire will probably do a return visit with you in a week or two. Be patient and if you are so inclined, pray about it.

  In Response to Anony Mous regarding the 144,000 and other questions...

  by EasyPrompt in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  still, you hold onto false teachings of the wtbts which are only there for the enrichment of its chiefs.. as pointed out, the rest of the book of revelation is figurative, yet you hold that the number 144,000 is literal.

  the wtbts currently says that this number is limited to those running the wtbts and that anyone claiming to be part of it outside that self-selecting group could be mentally ill.. by what reasoning (not from wtbts origin) do you believe only 144,000 people will be ‘saved’, and how do you know who is part of this self-selected group, given virtually no other religious denomination does even remotely believe in the literalism of revelation.

  do they have to be jws?
