Yes that's true , RTN

Someone in those specific localities realized the value of those properties and decided lets sell them and give the money to HQ, what a loving gesture to Jehovah they made.

These guys made themselves popular and noted by the top guys at the district HQ.

The transference of money has always stood as an identifiable action of devout loyalty to the Org.

it just seems like the kingdom halls are for sale everywhere.

Sounds like there are congregations about that couldn't wait to get a hold of the money their Kingdom Halls are worth.

JWS Jah's earthly real estate company.

.......but we don't need the Kingdom Hall anymore , we have Zoom now !

2021-September-22-JW COVID Deaths are higher than the general population!

2021-09-22-covid jw deaths--philippines .

see the bottom of paragraph 1.

"these figures indicate that the ratio of deaths among the brothers is even higher than among the general population.

Rafe

This may be due to the fact that the age demographic of JWS has risen over the years, such as 60 and over group.

Where to flee Covid mandates and restrictions?

by Kosonen in

jw
friends

at the moment there does not seem to be any place to flee to from covid mandates and restrictions.

we are stuck like the first century christians in jerusalem.

but jesus said when the disgusting thing would stand in the holy place, it was time to swiftly flee to the mountains.. will jehovah god open a path to security where we can be in safety?

Rafe

You let the pandemic burn out and then vaccinate so it doesn't return.

So lets say there were no restrictions and take for example the US would have by now well over a million, perhaps a million and half dead by now with the possibility of new variants beginning to appear which there may not be in the future no vaccine possible to combat it ?

Oh shit some people are stupid.

I think the medical community are on the right track in getting this virus under control and even they realize this virus will not be completely eliminated.

Humanity has been experiencing virus plagues since biblical times and probably before and to certain extent more severe such as the Black plague (1300's), try telling that to poorly educated people like Kososen .

Why do Men just want to control each other, and have control over you.

by pistolpete in

it seems like the moment someone attains some type of power, whether it's money, political power, or religious power, their first agenda is ---to control others.. bill gates is a good example of this.

another is george soros and michael bloomberg.

and let's not forget all the politician and religious leaders like the governing body.

Rafe

Men seek power over others through an established structure of self empowerment which also brings them an uplifted sense of self worth and importance in human social environments, which you usually can find in religious organizations.

Spiritual leaders derive their power from supernatural spiritual beings which they claim they are supposedly connected to.

A vilification of self glorification is established.

Some good things can actually come from these men, sometimes not so good.

What Congregation Scandal Still Troubles You?

by Sea Breeze in

i was appointed as a regular pioneer in a certain congregation.

in that congregation, a very obese male pioneer seduced a nice looking married pioneer sister who had two teenage sons.

her husband was a ms. both were df'd.

Rafe

What you can see is that many JWS are acting out through a pretentious characterization of righteous virtue and wholesomeness.

A portrayed characterization designed and arranged by the WTS and its leaders themselves.

They are in essence mostly playing to this role in cooperative unison and acceptance.

Is he a brother , is she a sister ?

The cumulative answer and how much involved they actively are such as in Pioneering, eldership, DO's, GB members etc. relates to their level of assumed righteousness.

The reality is these people can be just as behaviorally wrong as the common practicing JWS are or non JWS for that matter.

A Site About the Governing Body

by Anna Marina in

this site puts the spotlight on gb's teachings, actions and policies.. the governing body of jehovah's witnesses - putting a spotlight on their teachings, actions, and policies.

the latest article examines the reasons why it is not scriptural to apply the two witness rule to child sexual abuse cases.. the “two witness rule”, is it scriptural to apply it to child sexual abuse cases?

- the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.

Rafe

When men seek power and derive it from old ancient mythological writings such as the bible or the Quran and not from modern secular knowledge, humanity always suffers in one way or another.

The leaders of the JWS (GB) is a case in point.

The (IN)Consistent teaching about VACCINATIONS from JW leaders

by Terry in

vaccinations.

how many deaths were instigated which could be prevented?watchtower policies against vaccines left faithful sheep vulnerable to horrible consequences.antitoxins and vaccines against diphtheria, tetanus, anthrax, cholera, plague, typhoid, tuberculosis, and more were developed through the 1930s.. 1921 - "vaccination never prevented anything and never will, and is the most barbarous practice" - golden age oct 12, 1921, p.17.

1923 - "vaccination, summed up, is the most unhygienic, barbaric, filthy, abhorrent, and most dangerous system of infection known.

Just another example of “By this, all people will know that you are my
disciples if you have a love for one another”

Well said Terry
