  Highly polished puppet presents Aug '16 JW TV show

  by truthseeker in

  cult speak if i ever heard and saw it.. unbelievable cult...it seriously gets worse.

  like when he interviews a couple with 60 years service, the wife (who looks like hillary clinton) says how she had to leave missionary work because she was diagnosed with a serious illness while on vacation in the usa.

  then she says her husband had to get a job so he could pay her medical bills and i'm thinking where is jehovah's organization in all this.

  I've been saying it and saying it for a very long time:

  The money, help, and "love", only flow one way in JW-Land, from the average rank-n-file member to the top. Nothing is EVER reciprocated. The "Sheep" take care of the "Shepherd" in this pseudo-religious cult.

  So that Missionary with 60 years service, was left out in the cold to fend for herself, with absolutely nothing to show from the Org she served her entire life except, "....go forth, be warm, and well fed" ? And that poor husband, left to do it all on his own, with probably zero real life work skills, etc. Such is the "warm Christian Love", that oozes from this self-centered, self-serving, money-grubbing empire. "Charity" is not in the JW.borg's vocabulary. Neither is care, sympathy, or empathy.

  As always, "the beatings will continue, until morale improves."

  Your Brother insults you, puts you down to make himself look better to others, is a glutton and a hypocrite......

  ......but he LOVES YOU! He loves you, and he NEEDS for you to obey and cower down to him! If only you'd cave to the spiritual and emotional blackmail he dishes out, then maybe you'd be worthy of his "conditional love", right?

  Morning Woship: Kenneth Flodin targets "apostates"

  by Sanchy in

  2. friends

  video is entitled "beware of deceit" he uses the letter of jude to show that current day apostates are deceitful and that they use "trickery" to and "twist facts" to try to "grab our mind".

  warning: your head might explode.

  especially past the 5:30 mark.

  European Prospective 2017-2022

  by sp74bb in

  2. friends

  the new "business plan" for jw.org in europe has already received a name within the org: european prospective 2017-2022.. this plan is already on the table of the big guys in the us.

  in the practice it has been already getting the approval of the majority.

  so, no surprise at all to vote it.. essential features of the "business plan":- sale of all branches in the eu, except germany and uk (the latter benefits from brexit and certain privileged position)- all printing and digital material prepared and printed from germany- in each country, a local liaison office is left, certainly no more than 3-4 families.- free part-time worker is boosted from home, cheaper and hastle-free !- money to the new entity formed in belgium, as a non-profit organization (ibsa goodbye ...)- the most complicated ... who will care for the data of european jw ... confidential information and color envelopped with sensitive information.... enjoy the new european jw times !.

  So much for all that growth, aye? And when asked about such changes, the GB can claim that, "The preaching work is done! We're just waiting out the Great Tribulation, which may have already started!", and the pigeons will just bob their heads in agreement. It's a far, far cry from the religion I was raised in in the 1980's. Wow!

  just wanted to say hello, i have been visiting this site for a very long time and i feel like i know so many of you already, now you can get to know me but for now i'm fading so i cant give my complete story.

  i'm single but have "hardcore" siblings in the religion, thankfully i do have family who never expressed interest in the jws.

  i really checked out years ago from to much mental abuse and no recognition for all that i gave to this organization.

  " you will never grow old..."

  " you will never grow old..." a more grievous lie is hard to imagine.

  i heard this one first in 1957. i was 6. my mother had just converted.

  i heard it many times after that.

  I grew up in the 1980's, and heard the exact same thing. I'll never grow old. I'll never get thru high school, much less graduate from it. I'll never have to worry about a job, a mortgage, or kids in this "System of Things."

  I did all of that. I am 37 next month. I have white hairs. It's been really hard for me coming to terms with the prospect of growing older. My grandparents and parents have all passed away. All of the "older ones" in the Congregations I grew up in passed away. So did one of the congregations!

  The WT is like Satan in the Garden of Eden, claiming, "If you just peddle our crap and keep giving us your time, money, and life, you'll NEVER die!" Sick, twisted, liars.......all of them.

  having left the witnesses i hope i won't get " fooled again".

  yet life outside the organisation seems one big advertistiment telling me how useless i am.

  these advertisements tell me i am physically ugly, which can only be corrected by buying the advertisers " answer to my prayers" product.

  I'm sure your brother and the "loving shepherds" won't mind paying for all of her health care, as well as wiping her behind as she become more infirm?

  Can't you just feel the Christ-like Love oooozing from these creatures? *GAG*

  I am sorry your family is entrenched in this cult, but happy that you and your children are free!
