Who Really Controls the Governing Body
by LevelThePlayingField insince we neither can handle a challenge to god's power nor change the actual processes he has in place for the salvation of men, we will influence the men at our disposal.
we will use these men to formulate a religion and establish doctrines that heap reproach and shame to the very processes god has in place for salvation.
we'll establish our own process.. we’ll inspire men to change the bible and make it their own bible.

Their is no GOD and their is no DEVIL ,so what it comes down to is its human beings who see religion as a money making enterprise that they can exploit to their own advantage .

It's time
by Gorbatchov inwe got a call from close jw family, that it is now time to visit the kingdom hall again because armagedon is a question of a few months.
now it will happen in a very close time, the brothers say so, was the message.. i had earlier the feeling that jw's think the time has arrived because what they say and what they do, work like mad men with their chart every weekend.. so the expetations are high.. gorby's wife replied "how do you know, you should not know day and hour".
stay alert was the reaction.. so sad and so stupid.. g. .

You really have to wonder about the intelligence /IQ level of those that have been in the religion for decades and still believe in this religion.?

Governing Body of JW's - Bare-faced LIARS!
by The Fall Guy inw11 8/15 p. 22 questions from readers - “we thus have no way of knowing the exact number of anointed ones on earth; nor do we need to know.
the governing body does not keep a list of all partakers.. see this - s-21-e congregation's publisher record (2018-12).pdf

So in light of what has been advanced before us in previous posts are the GB of Jehovah`s Witnesses bare faced LIARS ? as the OP suggests ?
Or are we mis-interpretating it ?
Or do they get out of jail free card .?

"No more than 40 years"

can anyone confirm this latest "prediction"?.

Maybe the GB /JW`s don`t commit themselves to explicitly saying a specific date ,but they sure as hell have implied many dates , many times in their publications ,special talks ,etc,etc.
What happened to the statement "This system of things can`t last any more than 5 years now things are so bad in the world" which I first heard when I converted in 1960 .
What a dickhead I am/was for staying in for 33 years and subjecting my family in it.

"Romans" added to NWT Study Bible, and one omission.
by Wonderment inrom.
14:1 says: "welcome the man having weaknesses in his faith, but do not pass judgment on differing opinions.

These declarations make us wonder how the Society can reconcile their controlling and judgmental attitude and policies toward the brotherhood with those expressed statements above. What do you say?
I say, I can`t see how the WTB&TS / Jehovah`s Witnesses can justify anything they teach on any level when you compare what the Bible actually says about any subject and the interpretations the GB members through the WT publications demand their followers to adhere to or face a Judicial inquiry or be DF for not obeying the directions of the GB, who admit they make mistakes and are not inspired ?
Without ever apologizing ever for mistakes they don`t admit to ever making .

I was always a bit dubious about people who said the JW`s predicted the end was coming in 1925 ,I always understood that 1925 only dealt with the "resurrection of the faithful men of old " such as Abraham Isaac and Jacob.?
To rule as princes in all of the earth ?
Did I just answer my own question ?
Can you highlight where they state that the end would come in that year 1925 ?
