  2020’s are already a Train Wreck for JW ORG

  by Reservations in

  as the title says, we are nearly at the end of the 2nd year of the 2020’s, and already jw org is not only a car crash, but an absolute train wreck.. i’ve watched the annual meeting 2021 already, and it seems the gb are in fighting, morris openly disagreeing with lett, that is massive, and it’s something that has largely not been commented on by this community.

  covid-19 is not going anywhere, any trial meetings will surely be shut down, now omicron is doing the rounds.. it looks highly likely we will see a second negative growth year.

  “young ones” are waking up by the masses.

  FFGhost,

  I think to play all the expectations down.

  Maybe scared for a mass anticlimax in a few years from now.

  just downloaded and watched the am iii speech about expetations about the end.. all i think it is ment to temper the high expetations that the rank and file have build up because of the pandemic.. most jw think that the big end will come now.. gb must be anticipating the anti climax that will come.. it is a very rare speech, i can say, and am iii was in a realistic mood, the audience was laughing and he was thinking "you are idiots", so it seems to me.. g..

  Recent Annual Meeting - Asking for Clarification

  by truth_b_known in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  would someone in the know please clarify for me some alleged comments given from the governing body at the recent/yet to be streamed for the rank and file annual meeting?.

  it is my understanding that samuel herd basically tells the rank and file that old light is new light and the new light of july, 2013 is now old light.

  to be specific, herd states that the official stance on whether or not the annointed remaining on earth, to include the governing body, will all be in heaven prior to armageddon.. at this same annual meeting tony morris iii tells those in attendance that stephen letts' statement that "we're living in the final part of the last days, undoubtedly the final part of the final part of the last days!

  There was some impact in our family. Grandpa was mad that his JW son and daughter, my father and aunt went on holiday in 1975.

  In 1979 my father was angry about the society stand on 1975. With the WT article with statement about being wrong he was satisfied

  Watchtower Study on 5th December.

  by Lost in the fog in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the wt study for this week is all about disfellowshipping.

  in an early paragraph it said "think how heartbroken jehovah must have been when members of his own angelic family turned their back on him!".

  however when you think about it, when this happened according to the wt teaching, jehovah still engaged with satan in the heavens (book of job) and had conversations with him about what was going on in the earth.. so why do the wt org practice shunning when jehovah god obviously didn't?.

  study article 50. listen to the voice of the fine shepherd.

  9 consider an experience that illustrates how jehovah can care for our material needs.

  2021 Annual Meeting Talk, "I Will Never Abandon You"

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this 19 minute talk by “governing body” member samuel herd lacks enthusiasm, energy and mostly reads his script.

  looks like he was forced to talk about something he no longer believes, but goes along what was written to appease the rest of the ''governing body.''.

  mr. herd says, ''sometimes we have to make adjustments.

  I remember 40 years ago the backyard and garden of my parents had an exit to the street. The local elder came to visit us, inspected the garden and noticed the exit. "That exit is great when Armageddon will start", he said.

  We still laugh about that moment.

  Disfellowship

  i'm dealing right now with veru extreme situations that most of us have been in this sect.. i've talk to the elders because i was smoking cigarettes and i stopped for a couple of weeks.

  the reason i did that because mamy things are going on right now in my life.

  i'm out, i don't attend meetings i don't want to do anything with them anymore but i live in a small community so i want to go out without giving attention to anybody.. the reason i told them what i'm doing because my wife is still one of them and other people learn of some other things i have been doing and i had to tell something for obvious reasons.. the elsers tho the haven't answer to me back in 2 weeks almost and today one of them called me to give me some information.

  2/2022 WT: a repeated request & more doubletalk

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we all know the now famous quote, "all of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not.

  " well, this point is regurgitated in the latest wt, along with yet another new bunker scene:.

  "during the great tribulation, we may receive instructions that seem strange, impractical, or illogical .
