  And Fred Franz was 83 when he became President of the WBTS.

  The nebies and younger ones on the G. B. are making these changes, and many have been guilty of running it as a corporation instead of a house of worship.

  The man of lawlessness is alive and well at the top.

  That is why Jehovah is going to start with his OWN house when the time comes.

  Which is nothing new. How many times has.he has to correct his people in the past!

  True Stories from the Tower - Part 1 "From Anointed to Pedophile to Bethelite"

  before i dive into the actual write-up of this experience, let me put some things straight.. i have thought long and hard if i should write more about my experiences during the 10+ years at different branches.

  during these years i worked from financial department, service department, home office and different it assignments.

  as you can imagine one sees and hears and reads a lot of stuff going through different stations in different countries.

  Rosesinbloom:

  I am going to answer with all love and best intentions. As I've said, I have become an atheist and don't think about this as "Jehovahs people", but I will answer as best as I can and just why I left that possibility behind.

  As it seems Jehovah has a very bad track record in managing people or other beings. Let's see:

  First human couple: Perfect, healthy, beautiful bodies, absolutely no problems, PARADISE and yet they have chosen freedom / exercising of free will over all of this! You could argue that they have been "tricked" - one cheap ass trick with a talking animal, but lets leave that one aside. It took Satan exactly 3 sentences to change her mind. ONE question and two more sentences and she changed her mind: yup, God is a liar, let's go for this. Genesis 1:31 says it was "very good" - so it got Gods highest stamp of approval. No faults here and yet Eve is either incredibly dumb or this Paradise wasn't good at all or the story is just fishy. Anyway, move on.

  Whole hordes of Angels go rogue! His "people": several times - the Bible is basically a full blown account on how God assembles people, tries to manage them and loses them to the most stupid things - people made a golden calf, basically minutes after seeing miracles. Jesus: the same. Very bad track record at managing people.

  It seems that Satan is scoring much better (at least according to HIS mission goal).

  And now you are saying that his people are corrupt and need a good beating. I am asking you: Why does everybody go corrupt - from perfect angels, perfect Ken & Barbie couple to everybody else down to this day? Even the Governing Body reigning in the last days goes corrupt?

  Makes you think, doesn't it? God must be the worst people manager ever. Or...

  So it's not just Jehovah's Witneses and the WBTS that you are unhappy with. You are now at the point that you don't even believe a God exsists.

  That is truly sad.

  This is exactly why Jehovah is going to start WITH HIS OWN HOUSE at the start of the Great Tribulation. He is going to break it wide open and expose the evil slave and man of lawlessness. Many will be stumbled because they look at Bethel as their new golden calf, but don't even know it.

  It's all been profisied!! This is the organization Jehovah is using. and all these sins have been foretold. When you think about it, Jehovah has had to cleanse and punish his people, over and over , and over throughout history. It is no different with our generation, but the men at Bethel are to pompous to see or admit it!

  They will be severly punished because of the pain they caused Jehovahs sheep and the way they have thrown and skinned them like sheep without a shepherd! Their day WILL come, make no mistake of that.

  by trujw in

  2. experiences

  i think we all know the reason millions of less hours.

  when i was in we went to a rv by the kingdom hall then drove 30 minutes out to the country to knock on a door then back to the city for one more door.

  god must be so proud!

  At last night's meeting it was announced that the society is instructing us to now count tracts. The small little folded pices of paper on different subjects.

  Also the tracts used in campaigns such as #38 being distributed worldwide this month.

  There is an elder's wife in our congregation who is a regular pioneer who has admitted she is behind on her time EVERY month. Then suddenly the last 2 months of the service year were upon us, and lo and behold she only needed to get 50 hrs in each month for the last 2 month instead of the usual 70!

  The kicker is she was hardly even out in service the last 2 months. Im sure she lied about her time in order to remain on the pioneer list. Im sure MANY do.

  we just had that Body of Elders letter read last night.

  The electronic devices ARE now allowed, although the scriptures should be read from an actual bible.

  There was NOTHING said about stumbling others wish people wouldn't adlib.

  In closing, it is a conscience matter. period.

  Pioneer Service School Adjustment for 2014

  by bnybyt in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the pioneer service school will now be only one week, monday thru saturday.. it will consist of 40 hours of instruction and illustrations/presentations.. the reasong given is that this will make it more accessible to the pioneers for due to work schedules and for congregations having to sponsor and support the school.. it will make it easier on everyone and those who haven't attended in the last five years may be able to attend this school with the new curriculum.. .

  what do you feel would be included in the new curriculum.

  probably more worship of the governing body and they don't need two whole weeks to get this across.. .

  Here in USA west coast they are.

  and why do people think they have to secretly record anything?

  Bring it and tape it. Not a big deal. It will mostly be shown on jw.org in a couple of weeks anyhow.

  Recording is not banned people.
