@HiddlesWife:

"Mark Sanderson commented on a JW BROADCAST video, some remark to this effect⬇

"We really can't say; therefore, we don't know. ONLY Our Heavenly Father Jehovah and His Son, Jesus Christ, actually know. Friends, we just have to wait and see!".

As a child whom grew up in the 1980's, I couldn't have ever dreamed in my wild dreams that a Governing Body member would EVER utter something like that. EVER! It was constantly drummed into our heads from the stages, and thru the constant barrage of literature, that the time of the End was NOW! "Imminent." The Ark doors were closing, remember? Better get "in" God's Earthly Organization before it's too late!!!!!

Now, in the year of our Lord 2025, the GB can actually spout this drivel and not be tarred and feathered because most (if not all) all the Old Timers are dead and to weak to take action. My parents are probably spinning in their graves this very instant.

What an incredible sight to behold from this date in time. Just incredible! Truly, it is the passage of TIME that has shown this up to be a cult more than anything.

just happened across this.

(maybe you all knew it but it was newz to me) finally made it to 1000 posts...whew..

Truly, more proof of how far into "The time of the End" we are. When a building dedicated to Jah, has been shamelessly sold for profit to a corporation of Satan's world. Oh, the signing and moaning of the nations is deafening! Too bad, too bad, you company of useless crap!

How many Ends are there?

when will the current preaching work end?

(remember, i am reporting not supporting wts teaching).

questions from readers august 2025 p. 31 (how many wts teaching have been clarified?

WingCommander

www.jwfacts.com has the entire list of dates of "The End."

One things for sure: The End of Governing Body 2.0 is at hand! A lot of these holier-than-thou dinosaurs already have 1 foot on the "Launch Pad." Losch is losing his mind and not able to be understood, and Herd is a grumpy old man who can only read the "New Light" from a piece of paper. Lett still clowning around by shear willpower and money. Anthony Morris da Turd is living the good life sitting around on his Lay-Z-Boy recliner in his underwear with a glass of McCallen's in one hand, and a fistfull of dollars wrapped in a non-disclosure agreement in the other.

"Susan, freshen up my ice cubes, chop-chop! Fetch yourself a Jamison's if you like. Your King has spoken."

Remember Hour Quotas?

hour quotas timeline.

back in the old days long before 1952.

“after staying in our ‘home’ for two days we decided that if we were going to meet our quota of 140 hours for the month.

WingCommander

The very fact that Congregation Members (errr.......now called "Adherents") were actually called "Publishers" really goes towards the man-made corporate structure of this MLM Cult.

Does anyone really think Jesus or YHWH God gives a shit how many hours you were preaching a month? That they'd smite you DEAD if didn't get 60, 90, or more hours a month? Total freakin' insanity. I'm just astounded people fell for this BS for so long.

The jig is up though. My "Generation" (born in 1979) and younger, don't give even (1) flying fugg about "making hours" or standing by some dumbass cart. Nope! It's a little bit of informal witnessing (aka, throw a business card down at the laundromat or dentist/dr's office), reading bible stories with the kids, volunteering on LDC or cleaning the KH, maybe shove a 5'er in the donation box if ya got it, and then they "check the box." Taa-Daa! All good for this month! Praise Jah .......errr......the Governing Body, for this glorious "simplification." Too many other things in life to get done and hobbies to enjoy.

Change in WT Stance on Retirement? A qualified answer?

by blondie in

jw
friends

i was reading the march 2025 wt today, and i notice this: "march 2025 p. 29 jehovah’s hand is not too short p.29-31 (retirement, but qualified statement) (notice , it is not wrong, but, in the end we must rely on their god.

retirement is alluded to as "making the quest for material things the focus of our life.

" are we confident that their god will provide (why have retirement then?

WingCommander

The higher-ups at WT HQ don't have to worry about retirement like all of the SUCKERS who've bought into their end-times nonsense and "Wait on Jehovah" and "Jehovah Provides!" nonsense. Nope! See, they've got a brand new retirement community up at Fishkill where they retire to, staffed by volunteer Bethelites who wait on them and clean their homes, etc. Hell, I've just found out that they have different activity days/nights, and even have afternoon cocktails and mixers! (as is the Bethel way!)

So while the rank-n-file sheeple are left out in the cold, hoping their Congregation (lol, yeah right!) or worldly non-JW relatives will take care of them, the ELITE up at WT HQ get to retire on the Sheeple's dime at Fishkill. All expenses paid, with a final trip to the "Launch Pad" as a final farewell. Ahhhhh.......it's good to be the KINGS, aye? That's not even mentioning the types like Lett, Morris, and Jolene who had all kinds of business dealings off on the side making MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, while the rest of the pauper Bethelites were forced to sign a "vow of poverty" upon entering Bethel service, and were even forbidden from holding "G-Jobs" to make some extra bucks to be able to buy a decent meal or not have to cloth themselves from the second hand donation box.

Fuck this money-grubbing cult. The more I find out about it, the angrier I get at how big and far reaching the con is.

Reddit thread on convention video urging cutting off contact with Faders

by LongHairGal in

jw
friends

i just read this.

don’t know if anybody here has seen the video.. the intended result of this is to obviously scare ‘faders’ out of the shadows.

now, they are being threatened with loss of association with their loved ones and friends.

WingCommander

Lett-the-Clown (Honk-Honk!) is the moron that just keeps giving! And no one up in WT HQ is brave enough or has the testicular fortitude to actually say, "Hey, maybe we should edit that part out before we put it on the Broadcast." Helllll nooooo! No one would dare to question when the "Earthly Princes" go off-script and spout off totally offending nonsense.

It'd be sad, if it weren't so hysterical and useful to the ex-JW cause of showing normal people how INSANE this dumbass cult is.

SDAs Campaigning in my Area

by NotFormer in

not even as active as the jws (whom i have not seen for around a year now), nevertheless i get an occasional leaflet or other publication in my letterbox that seems to be seventh day adventist in origin.. the booklet i received the other day was entitled "national sunday law".

i also had received this book years ago when i had some dealings with the sdas.. from reddit: "national sunday law involves a conspiracy theory which alleges that the united states government is on the verge of enacting a national blue law that would make sunday a day of rest and worship.

the theory depends on the idea that the pope is the antichrist and the mark of the beast is worshipped on sunday.

@Blondie:

I hear ya, the 1800's where crazy in America (in particular, NY and PA) for these kinds of crazy new religions to start up.

CTR was surrounded by a lot, and picked and choose from:

Second Adventists

Quakers

Masons

Christadelphians

Pyramidologists

Other occults

Like a buffet, he picked what he wanted from each group and created his own religious nutbag salad and left the rest to rot.

Want to the see what a Congregation of JW's will look like in 20 years? Visit a Christadelphian Eclasis (if you can find one). All grey hairs sighing and moaning and gnashing of false teeth. No youth are to be found. The only place you'll find JW's will be up at their cult compound, IF it even still exists. (lawsuits may force foreclosure? One can dream)

If this is the video with the 2 guys, I can honestly say I'm floored by it.

1. It's infantile.

2. It's completely the opposite of how Jesus behaved. Even HE heard out Satan in the garden, spoke to him, etc.

3. The fact that the JW guy comes off like an unreasonable toddler is not lost on me, while the supposed "Apostate!" is level-headed and logical.

4. The real head turner: When the JW states that if his soon-to-be-ex-friend doesn't "turn himself in to his Elders, than I will!" Then turns and storms off like a toddler. This is the same shit the Nazi's trained into the children while they were growing up in the Hitler Youth. They were trained to turn in not only friends, but also any family who dared to speak negatively about the Fuhrer or the Party to the Gestapo.

It's wild how truly "culty" this segment was. It will absolutely wake some people up. Their minds will simply explode viewing the stupidity of it all. There's been talk of PIMO's high up planting these types of ideas into video segments, and I can almost believe it! If so, I congratulate them and say, "Bravo!"

Verdict on the 2025 convention

by gavindlt in

final thoughts after 15 hours of the 2025 assembly.

after dedicating 15 hours to the 2025 assembly, i walked away with a heavy sense of spiritual emptiness.

the only part that managed to stir anything within me was a single video on day one titled “what does jesus see in you?”—a piece with sentimental appeal, but still surface-level at best.. .

WingCommander

I humbly submit what I consider is about next for the Org: Kid songs about OBEYING THE GOVERNING BODY.

Hey! Iglesia Ni Cristo cult in the Philippines (modeled right after the JW's belief system) has one already that the JW's can copy, just like they do with Mormon stuff already. (Family Worship Night, stolen right from the Mormons, as well as Caleb and Sophia)

Check it out, and bring your barf bag:

Always Submit to the Church Administration

Reading about Nelson Barbour, you can really see how much CTR started to steal from others.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelson_H._Barbour

Even CTR's pyramidolgy ideas were stolen from others. The man was a snake-oil salesman false prophet of the highest order. He never had even (1) original idea. He merely took a whole bunch of stuff that was floating around at the time, mixed it all together and repackaged it, then SOLD IT for PROFIT. He also loved to hear himself speak. That Creation film was about the most original thing he put out. Oh! And the Leviathan being a steam locomotive, and it's tongue was the front coupling. (Source: Studies in the Scriptures, some crazy ass shit for sure!)
