I refuse to click on that link. I don't want to be a unique visitor in next months KM.

As if their published numbers are real.

You'll be counted whether you actually go to JW Org or not.

"The Governing Body has approved..."

I feel so much better now.

.

"sensing" and "feeling" Jehovah's "obvious" direction.

WT ordered and paid for equipment, then it arrived.

Yes, this is obviously Jehovah's direction, because in all the time TV has existed, never once has a TV station ordered equipment and it actually arrived.

This only happens for Watchtower.

So if Jehovah has clearly blessed this, it seems the GB will determine whether to continue running with it or not.

WT has always told Jehovah what to do and routinely revises His decisions. Why should this be any different?

What's up with the 10 virgins? After all that time the new light is that they were not virgins after all??

They are "basic" virgins.

I think it is a rumor. Why? Because it would be so stupid to do that....

I dont think the powers that be are THAT stupid...............

Since when has this ever stopped the GB?

"Overlapping Generation" anyone?

i cannot wrap my mind around the fact that there is jw tv.

being a born in and living most of my life hearing how tv evangelism is wrong and lazy preaching yet seeing this unfold solidifies this religion as a cult!.

i remember back when i began my fade a few years ago i told my brother during an argument how this religion is just like any other religion in that its bull.

It's only wrong when other religions do it.

Just put it on the same long list as all the other things WT has condemned other religions for doing...only to see WT eventually do it themselves.

The 11/15/86 WT quoted earlier sums up why the GB are now using television:

-

"...why do many evangelists [now The GB too] prefer TV as their medium? The Courier-Mail of Brisbane, Australia, notes that TV evangelists “make up to $120 million a year selling salvation. They appear in a blaze of electrified power and glory on 300 TV stations, and are worshipped like pop idols."

AGM 2014 - How are faders gonna hide in plain sight anymore?

so two big changes in the org were announced in the most recent agm.. local needs part is replaced by "how do you know the truth" where all members will tell their experience (oh what fun).

basic pioneer role 10 only hours a month required (see, jehovah lightens our load, therefore he loves only us)!.

it seems like they have really turned up the heat here.
AndDontCallMeShirley

The announcement was a new class of pioneer called a "basic pioneer" where you commit to 10 hours a month.

What's next for 2015? Inactive or irregular Publishers will be "Auxilliary Pioneers"?

smiddy: So they have now become part and parcell of babylon the great ?

WT has always been like other religions...they were just very good at hiding it by drawing attention away from themselves by pointing fingers at everyone else.

Now that the Internet has exposed WT for what it truly is, they have nothing to lose. JWs will not see the hypocrisy, but instead will lap these changes up as "progressive" moves of God's Organization..."proof" that it is the true religion, even though it is now doing exactly what it has always condemned other religions for doing.
