Maybe that`s why their are so many more people claiming to be of the anointed now,they don`t like the thought of lying in the ground or being cremated at death and want and hope for an immediate resurrection at death so they partake of the wine and emblems claiming to be of the anointed.

Sharing the Bad (shameful) News in all the Earth - Courtesy of the BBC
by fulltimestudent inaustralia's royal commission into child abuse released its full report yesterday, so it was gratifying to see the uk's bbc run this headline on their website this morning (aussie time):.
australia jehovah's witnesses 'did not report 1,000 alleged abusers'.
hopefully, all over the world people will learn the shameful news of what yhwh (as guided by the holy spirit) told his earthly witnesses to do.

As of this date 15/12/2017 A.M. No Australian state or territory has signed up to the redress scheme giving compensation to the victims of Child sexual Abuse by any Institution.
Derryn Hinch a senator asks why not ? and that they must do so ..however I think Parliament is now in recession until early next year.
Senator Derryn Hynch made an interesting observation regarding the dollar amount to be agreed upon .
I think first up it was $500,000 in Compensation then it was reduced to $200,000 and then low and behold (in his words) it was reduced to $150,000 that the Government accepted which coincidentally ? happened to be the number the Roman Catholic Church had initially put forward as an acceptable figure.
I wonder why ? { Anyone ?}
Religion still is a powerful and influential force in Government in this day and age ,so don`t be surprised if the recommendations of the ARC submitted in their final report today are not watered down somewhat by the actions of Government
True some, if not many of the recommendations will be adopted but definetely not all of them and some of those not adopted will be the ones we wanted to be adopted.
It will be interesting to see what transpires in 2018
Edit to add ? What gains were made in Ireland with their investigation into Child sexual Abuse some years ago ?

two men are stuck on opposite sides of a river. The first man shouts to the second.
"How do I get to the other side of the river ?"
The second man shouts back ,
"You ARE on the other side."

Breaking: Walt Disney Studios buys out JWs.
by neat blue dog inin an all cash transaction, disney has purchased every share in the watch tower bible and tract society of pennsylvania, inc.. their most recent in a slew of acquisitions including pixar, the muppets, marvel, lucasfilm and most recently 20th century fox, disney plans to "leverage their preexisting infrastructure and fan-base" for future content.. removing robert ciranko, who took over for don alden adams in 2014, disney is installing as president john lasseter, who already helms both disney and pixar's animation studios.
recently disgraced and on leave for allegations of inappropriate sexual conduct, disney said he was "just perfect" for the job.. plans include making yearly theatrical films with post-credits scenes as part of a crossover shared universe with preexisting watchtower film characters like caleb and sophia, the prodigal son, the roman family and the bad worldy boy from school (with nicholas king reprising and expanding his role), as well as an educational disney jr. show, "little chuck", aimed at toddler's, hosted by a young version of ct russell sporting a pretend beard..

Jehovah`s Witnesses and the JW Religious organization are in the main parasites on society bleeding what they can out of the world and giving/contributing nothing back into it
.And I was guilty of that as much as any other JW in my 33 years as a JW.
They have all the excuses in the world that one can think of to not support this or that charity / humanitarian relief fund/ disaster fund or anything else that the world asks for to alleviate human suffering of one sort or another.
What do they offer ? a scripture or two or three and then in a sense say "Go in peace" offering no practical help or assistance.

Jrjw Welcome to this site ,many people here can give you good advice without judging you in any way ,keep asking questions here whatever they are and you wont be judged or hauled into a room for a Judicial Committee meeting as you would more likely be told to front at a Kingdom Hall.
Take care.
