  Do You Think 10% Tithing is Coming?

  by xjwsrock in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  firstly, there are cash flow problems in wt town.

  i don't think it's necessary to list all the cutbacks and layoffs, but there have been many.. their thirst for money seems higher too in my opinion.

  more entitled may be a better way of putting it.

  Too Much Discontent in Congregation Part 1

  by Simon Templar in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i am seeing and hearing many, many long-time jws openly expressing problems with either the watchtower society itself, the publications, changing doctrine, incorrectly living their lives as a result of bad doctrine, the behavior of the boe and other related things.

  i will share some of these things in several posts, because there are just too many of them.

  the complaints that i hear from publishers and pioneers are many.

  I had an elder tell me once he didn't like non anointed in the writing department but it's odd that your able to get people to open up. The only other thing I saw was the way a brother pioneer preached in service he was more Christian in his approach. But other then that I'm supprised any one say much at all since being in this cult is like living in north Korea.

  Reason of financial problems WTS

  by Gorbatchov in

  a non-witness insider told me this week that the wts has financial problems.

  that lead to halting down their building plans and lay off the special pioneers and.

  bethelites.. the reason of the financial stagnation is beside some bad investments,.

  I think people are just broke most of the growth in the past decade has been from poor immigrants. Most jws no nothing of the law suits their dumb as rocks. Those that can donate if thier not, it's because of apathy do to the never ending proclamation the end is near. The slow down stoppage could also be staged to go to a tything program. The Borg put tything in their new Bible. This could be their master plan.

  2. friends

  just wanted to break the ice and write my first post here and also talk about some things that are bothering me.

  i don't believe the witnesses have the truth more than any other organized religion.

  If the jws are growing at. 001% and all others are declining then I guess he's right.

  Disfellowshipping Spree In My Congregation

  by jw07 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i just was looking back at a group photo on social media from exactly one year ago.. there are 12 persons in it, and since last year 3 of those persons in that photo have been disfellowshipped, plus one more not in the photo.

  so that's a total of 4 persons from my congregation of a little over 100 publishers.. unfortunately 3 are back at the meetings and taking the shunning, but one seems to be fully awake and has disappeared completely.. that's the most persons i recall being disfellowshipped in my congregation in such a short while.

  usually it's like 1 every 2 or 3 years.. i wouldn't mind seeing more people leaving.. there are currently 3 persons who i wonder about.

  maybe i'm over reacting but i'm getting tired of all the bullshit.

  they truly see you as a demonized one when your gone.

  i spoke to my 14 year old about not getting baptized he said he wasn't and understood my reasoning then texts his mother and says some really hurtful stuff.

I spoke to my 14 year old about not getting baptized he said he wasn't and understood my reasoning then texts his mother and says some really hurtful stuff. Maybe 14 year olds are just like that telling you what they think you want to hear and then telling other what they want. My wife of course does much the same says things to me then says things to her friends even lying to them or misrepresenting what's truly going on to gain favor for herself. All in all when you leave they paint the picture that your really the bad guy and its you against the world.

  Should I go back and play like I've come to my senses then after a few months start studying the bible and crap like this and then start planting seed showing them the proper way of love and how to think via the teachings of Jesus also making sure they also learn that not everyone going to die at the big A things like this OR What??? I'm really getting sick of everyone trying to alienate my family from me. Not sure what to do any more, or am I just not being patient but again its hard to even get a word in when the family is being told not to listen to you. SO frustrated!!!!

  What it takes to keep separate from the world

  by Sabin in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  check out this mag.

  june 15th, 1980.. without a doubt, our appreciating just how wicked & corrupt satan's world is will help us to keep separate from the world.

  such appreciation will make it easy for us to obey the command found at psalms 97:10 "o you lovers of jehovah, hate what is bad.

  You could have also pointed out that the good news the jws preach is not the good news the Bible writers implied, Galatians chapter 1and 1corithians 15. IE Jesus is the Messiah is the good news.
