When elders asked how come I wasn’t reaching out I said “as you brothers know, these are critical times we live in, the last of the last days. This isn’t the time to be heaping more on my plate. My plate is full, I’m looking to remove as much as I can from it.” They had nothing to say.

JWs & Scientology
by APieceOfShitNamedTate ini've been trying to learn more about how scientology works in regard to how they investigate, interrogate, and discipline their members, and how similar their methods are to jehovah's witnesses.
i am currently pimo, and while i have never faced a judicial committee, the elders have tried to investigate me.
i won't go into detail, but basically it was just a case of me not wanting to reach out like they wanted me to.

Nice write up in classic Watchtower style!
I also am in shock and awe by ones on here that see no big deal about what Tony did. They deflect and distract others with all sorts of questions to throw up a smoke screen.
As I said before, anyone that feels we’re overreacting has to shut their Bible and toss out all the Watchtowers and base everything off of their human reasoning. If that’s the case, they are putting Tony above Jehovah and his Word. They are essentially making him an idol and worshipping him.

Is there a new Date by the Watchtower for the End of System?
by William Penwell innot sure if this topic has being covered recently.. my son asked me a question if the jw's have in the recent months being pushing a new end date to the system?
he was telling me about how his mother has being on him again about the urgency of the end of this system of things and he needs to do something asap.
i told him i am not aware of any new dates as i have being away from the cult for over 20 years.

I sure hope they aren’t. We could find dozens of their articles condemning any JW that serves Jehovah for a date and an end.

@lastmanstanding
Let’s get the full context of that fulfillment.
Matthew 24:45-51
45 “Who really is the faithful and discreet* slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?
46 Happy is that slave if his master on coming finds him doing so!
47 Truly I say to you, he will appoint him over all his belongings.
48 “But if ever that evil slave says in his heart, ‘My master is delaying,’
49 and he starts to beat his fellow slaves and to eat and drink with the confirmed drunkards,
50 the master of that slave will come on a day that he does not expect and in an hour that he does not know,
51 and he will punish him with the greatest severity and will assign him his place with the hypocrites. There is where his weeping and the gnashing of his teeth will be.

How have so many been fooled into thinking and believing it’s acceptable for a child to make a vow to serve Jehovah till the day they die?
by BourneIdentity inwhen ….. you need to be 15 to obtain your drivers permit.
you need to be 16 to obtain your drivers license.
you need to be 17 to watch a r rated movie (alone without a parent).

When ….
- You need to be 15 to obtain your drivers permit
- You need to be 16 to obtain your drivers license
- You need to be 17 to watch a R rated movie (alone without a parent)
- You need to be 18 before being considered an adult
- You need to be 21 before being able to legally drink alcohol
- You need to be 25 to rent a car
*Note - these ages apply to the United States, and even some states may differ, but it applies to my area. Please don’t nitpick, I just want the point to come across.
Besides these things, the Society encourages everyone to wait till they’re past the bloom of youth before marrying. As we all know, most get married at 18 or shortly after because they are horny AF. The literature will say the person at 18 has no clue what they want, that they are still getting to know themselves and it is a long process. Yet they will trust a 8 year old when he/she says they love Jehovah and this is the vow they want to commit to! How is that even possible? How did all these millions of people get sucked in and believe this is the way it’s supposed to be??
You may say, the Scriptures back it up, that must surely be why we do it. No! All records in the Bible of any baptism was always to an adult, no infant or child baptism, none! What did Jesus do? He waited till he was 30 years old. How come the Society always encourages us to follow in Jesus footsteps, but they always seem to forget this one glaring thing?
For all of us who have awoken, we now see it. It has nothing to do with following the Bible, and has everything to do with locking children and their parents in. When these children get to be late 20s or early 30s and start thinking harder about things, they’re stuck. When parents start thinking about leaving, their children are baptized and they are very well aware will be shunned by them. They’re all stuck in and miserable. For the ones that will not tolerate it, they leave and then have to deal with the fallout of shunning.
It is crazy how the Society go beyond what is written and it’s so harmful to people. How do JWs honestly tell people everything they do is Scripturally based, they lie!!

You know how the Slave tells us all never to drink alcohol at dinner time on a meeting night? They don’t want us under any type of influence when we attend the meeting later that evening, because it would be disrespectful to Jehovah. I could see them ignoring their own counsel and sipping those scotches at any hour of the day. The rules don’t apply to them.
From the November 15, 2014 Watchtower: "Does this passage mean that we must not drink anything alcoholic before going to a Christian meeting? Think about these points: We are not under the Law. (Romans 10:4) In some lands, our fellow believers use alcoholic beverages in moderation at meals before attending meetings. Four cups of wine were used at the Passover. When instituting the Memorial, Jesus had his apostles drink wine that represented his blood."
Jehalapeno,
Looks like that must be new light. This was from the 1987 WT

That is a great idea to keep the kids interested.
I’ve heard several young boys say they are motivated to get baptized to do mics. It’s sad the Society dangles that carrot out in front of them like that, that decision changes their lives forever.

The elders are in the wives ears, hey, motivate your husband to reach out, you and your family will be blessed for it.
Let’s see here, if he gets 4 more hours of service in, he gets to be up and away from his family while he does mics and sound. If he keeps that routine for awhile, then he gets to be a MS, which means more time away from his family to prepare parts. If he does that for awhile, he gets to be an elder and spend massive amounts of time away from his family to shepherd the flock, prepare talks, travelling to give talks and judging others in judicial committees. I think this would only be a blessing if the wife and children hate their husband and father and want him away as much as possible. Talk about distancing a family and ruining it.

I’ve saw some of the “friends” show up for field service and say they had their own plans, whether it be a bible study or return visits. An hour later drove past their house and they were in their normal clothes doing yard work. I know others that meet and then go out for breakfast without doing anything. It’s all about appearances, nothing about results or quality. It’s not about what Jehovah thinks, it’s about what their fellow man thinks.

A married brother with multiple children turns in 10 hours of time per month. A group of single brothers ranging in age from 13-16 turn in 10 hours per month.
The married brother works full-time. The single brothers have no job. Safe to say the married brother is working easily 160 hours per month, while the single brothers 0. Dozens of hours per month caring for his home, cars, and children, single brother 0. I could safely assume the brothers are logging 80 hours per month playing video games. So you tell me, what brother do you think will be used as an example and get to pass the mics and do the sound box? You guessed it, the single brothers. The married brothers are told they need to be getting in at least 14 hours. It’s assumed 4 are being used for family worship, so the assumption is they are doing that, but only getting in 6 hours in the field ministry. Who is more whole souled as to Jehovah? It’s absolutely laughable how brain dead these men are running the Organization.
