If JWs Were More Tolerant Would It Help Their Money Woes?

by minimus in

jw
friends

they don't want you bettering yourself.

they hate college education.they applaud you if you quit full time secular work and instead, "pioneer".

they cry that they have money problems.

Someone posted a very good documentary on how the internet is killing religion. It stated at the time 4000 Christian congregations we're closing down every year. People are losing faith in God. This religion would have to main stream become very tolerant and very social in a big hurry if they want to survive. I have not seen any of their new videos but from what I have been told their not really doing this.

Something interesting!

by John Aquila in

i was invited to a small get-together by a long time friend.

we both served as elders for years.

he is in his late 70s.

Slim you have a valid point, it's hard to believe. But it's also hard to believe what's going at bethel too. I'm with the poster that said what's going on at bethel is that they realise they have hit their peak and their not going to commit to any more waste of money. I think now is the time where they plan on just sucking out the last bits of flesh from the victim.

Oh I forgot to mention that the congregation where my wife attends has near 150 members of those less then 5 donated to the cause and the brother and his wife that's studying with my boys, nope.

So I was reading over new member Hollywood 20s experience and thinking of using it when I'm going to talk with my son that their trying to get baptized. So that with all the other things through my mind I decided to say some things to him about what's going on with my daughter.

So this is what happening with her. She gets baptized A few years ago about the same time I'm waking up. They of course use this in her onstage coming out deal whatever they call it, where shes talking about how Satan tries to stop your baptism and then say a close family member didn't want me to get baptized. Lie I only wanted her to delay. Any way after she starts getting sick and it gets worse over time. She's been blessed by jah,.j/k.

So we're going to doctor after doctor they all say its just in her head and she continues to get worse really bad. She finally gets diagnosed and a few months later but still no medical help my wife finds out about a potentially curing treatment on the east coast, were on the west.

So we go into action to raise the money that its going to take to get their, the few week treatment and get back. I don't have a lot of money in savings do to another issue draining it but I know I can earn the money. In the mean time the wife takes on some odd jobs and also starts a fund raiser on Facebook and opens up an account at a bank hoping people will help out. So in a few weeks I give her about half the money needed and then my mother finds out about what's going on and decides to donate half of what's needed so now we have the funds and it didnt take as long as i thought it was, Sweet.

But wait, the money she ,my mom, donated even though she's a witness and is family came from a small inheritance that she got from a worldly relative and of course my money again is from family but I'm also and evil unbeliever. So how much did my wife get from all her congregation and all her friends with the fundraising.? Less then 600 and most came from a couple of her close friends and how much did the elders give?, not one red cent. Now I wasn't behind the fund raising idea and was determined to earn all the money myself. She did all that on her own.

I'm sure when they get back if my daughter treatment goes well , they'll say it was a blessing from jah and he also found away to get the money that was needed. Were so blessed.

In the end modern science an educated doctor and worldly peoples money hopefully fix my daughter.

jw
friends

grew up in east la in a bad neighborhood to a black mother and white father.

i never knew my father because he died in a car accident when i was a few weeks old.

my mother converted as a jw soon after when two sisters came to her door and offered her comfort, which was something she needed.

I would like to share your story with my son, but you must continue and tell us what your life has been in the years since you turned down your dreams.

Special Pioneer Couple Living at a Kingdom Hall In Miami FL, get the dreaded Letter

by James Jack in

just got a phone call from an older sister saying that a couple that got re-assigned from bethel 4 years ago to live at their kh apartment as special pioneers, just received a letter saying "as of january 2016, your special pioneer assignment will be discontinued".. they live in a south miami kh(snapper creek congregation).. this couple had only served in bethel for 15 years before they were sent out into the special pioneer work.

they are now in their mid 50's and the sister said that they have to find part time jobs to support themselves.. the older sister (does not have a pc or internet), says that the couple are just devastated!

I new the over 50 thing was a lie. Even if they didn't at first they would quietly later.

Take this to anyone who says "we need two witnesses for child abuse"

by StarTrekAngel in

so another week goes by with another brain mushing meeting.

i had not been to a meeting in two weeks.

first i was out in vegas for a business trip.

Crazyguy

I think there is also a Scripture where a girl gets raped in a field and no one hears her crying out and that man is to be killed, no witnesses there. But if that Scripture says it's that way it contradicts other Scriptures but what's new.

I can confirm the truth to such a meet up but surprised at the size. Where I live one of the last members of the old writing department gets together with a small group of exbethlites and elders and their wives. Much smaller in scale.
