  need input: Asked my wife to show me in the bible where Christ became King in 1914

  so my wife is so diluted and brainwashed.

  during this time she is having so much anxiety, mainly because me and my son's want nothing to do with the religion.. so the discussion was, i told her will never go back because they go way beyond what the bible teaches all the time.

  i brought up overlapping generation, 607 and then i told her...show me where in the bible that jesus returned invisbly in 1914 and started ruling?

  I recently had a conversation with an ultra-PIMI relative regarding the overlapping generation. Despite all his pioneering, personal study, and assembly parts, he had no idea about it. He had to latter come back to me and apologise that I was correct. What amazed me about this incident, was for such an important aspect of which the faith hangs on, he was totally clueless. Needless to say he is still pioneering and to be honest wt can have him.

  Talking about the Christadelphians. When I first left the JWs, I actually attended a couple of christadelphian services. Mainly out of curiosity. I was shocked to find that I could use JW terminology and doctrine and they knew exactly what I was talking about. Another religion worth investigating is the Iglasea ni Christo - I’ve also attended there as well.

  Good News About the Covid-10 and the Watchtower Bible and Truck Society! n

  we all know that things are all going to be way different when we get through this milestone.. like hurricane katrina, people survived this but new orleans even 16 years later is way different.

  our economy is like a shark that must keep moving through the water.

  stop it and it will die.. the witnesses like many people in the world, have little to no savings.

  Sell all physical assets. Take it off shore. Become a totally on line religion, with a minimal subscription fee to access the web site, and they should be right.

  What SHOULD have woken you up ?

  for myself, there is an embarrassingly long list of things that really should really have woken me up, fully.

  it was a long process for me, as a mind controlled born in, things i simply did not agree with, or knew were downright wrong, that built and built, and, eventually i woke up, after 58 bloody years in !.

  but just mainly for fun, what should have woken you up ?.

  Is the WTBTS preparing to...

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  ...tell the sheeple that "jehovah's earthly organization" is financially facing critical times, hard to deal with, which could threaten its survival and that it urgently requires as much money as the minions can send.. like every other business in the world, the cult needs a constant source of cash to exist.

  so with meetings, assemblies, and probably conventions being cancelled, the cash-cow is rapidly looking very precarious.. i reckon the financial brains in the wtbts will have devised a financial survival plan - based on the situation continuing/worsening.

  :) the sheep have all been fleeced - time to skin them!.

  Like I’ve always maintained. If they have got the brains they will use Covid-19 as an excuse to cash up and go on line. Take the money and run, while you still can, would be my advise.

  How was it possible that some members fall asleep or nod off during meetings?

  a while back, we had a saturday wedding reception for a brother and sister from our kingdom hall.

  the reception ended at midnight.

  most of us got home at around 1:00 a.m. our sunday public talk meeting started at 9:30 a.m. .

  Used to do it all the time. Quite easy, and that’s speaking from experience.

  They need MORE $$$$$

  by TallTexan in

  i haven't been to a meeting in years, but i was recently told by a friend of mine that they have really been hammering the 'use of your valuable things in support of the kingdom' in many of the talks and thursday night parts.

  i know they used to mention it all the time, but he said it's gotten really bad lately.

  i told him that's because the membership in the western (translate that to "richer"...lol) countries has really fallen off and even become negative in many countries and that the 3rd world countries can't contribute enough to support the great publishing empire.

  All they need to do is sell up, take the money off shore. Put a spin on it to the effect that the Corona Virus has now made it to unsafe to meet in physical buildings (great trib), so the loving provision is now to be instructed via the internet. Now here’s the catch! In order to be instructed there is a minimal subscription fee, to cover running costs. If they do that they should be right. If they have got brains, they will seize this opportunity to become a web based religion.

  Goes to show how great minds think alike. The exact same thing crossed my mind this morning. Perhaps they will spin it as the last days been so critical ,and for safety concerns, that its better if it’s services are held on line.
