he said in some countries all the donations that they get from contributions don't even pay the electricity bill for the branch buildings so money has to come in from these 6 richer countries.

I think a lot of credit must go to the internet for the lack of contributions, even though it is very hard to put any numerical figure to it due to lack of information so it is intuitive.

The more the lack the more the GB will brow beat the R&F to give, in turn the more lack of contributions as people see it for what it is a purely money grabbing corporation that calls itself "God's Organization".

Donations

by FadeToBlack in

i think that since i am the sole wage-earner in our household, i need to make it clear to my wife that i don't want any of my hard-earned wages going to the wt.

i know she makes a monthly contribution to an animal shelter and i am fine with that.

what do you think?

I think you are within your rights!

What Exactly are the Governing Body Members of the Jehovah's Witnesses trying to sell themselves As ?

by Finkelstein in

the watchtower corporation has been in existence for over 100 years now, originally headed by presidents and slew of recognized executive directors known as governing body members.. in 1919 the then president of the wts j rutherford proclaimed that god has exclusively chosen him and the wts as its earthly chosen organization among all other christian based faiths.. was this just a calculated self marketing ploy to create validation and to draw attention to the wts published works ?

the gb today still uses the assertion that god is backing this organization with that attaining exclusivity by god, jehovah blesses are work and jehovah had offered this, is constant reiterated in about every talk during most jws meetings.

is this just intentional adverse brainwashing ?

They are trying to sell themselves as caring loving old grampa's that have only the best interest of the flock they have been chosen by Jehovah to guide to an everlasting reward and so they must be listened to and obeyed.

I think that represents a sorta corporate motto for these over the hill delusionalist.

These guys on the Governing Body are showing their true colors, which is very very good, the more they are going to send the rank and file out the door, and then less money, a snow ball effect were they become more and more blatant in asking for more money to make up for those leaving.

I say let them keep it up it will bring them down faster!

JWs and the making of many books

by Magnum in

ecc 12:12 - "to the making of many books there is no end, and much devotion [to them] is wearisome to the flesh.".

i just never could keep up with all the jw reading material.

as a zealous jw, it was my desire to read every word published by the org, but i just couldn't do it.

Yeah this is a phrase in the bible that the Governing Body need to take seriously in fact the entire writing department who write the crappy books full misquotes and delusional thinking about being God's earthly organization. There should be hanging a banner over the entire printing operation, of all bethels through out the world. It seems they always miss the meaning of that scripture some how because they feel God wants them to print books when right there in the book of proverbs(one of many(books that is(oh this is so wearisome(another book about books) it say God hate books and also a higher education that why the Governing Body are so dumb.

New "donation" arrangement begins to FAIL

by Tech49 in

jw
friends

so here we are, almost a year into the "new" congregation donation arrangement.

and its beginning, as was predicted, to fail miserably, and to have direct negative consequences on the poor sheep.. let me give you a little experience, directly from our congregation of about 80 publishers.

back in may, after reading the letter about the "new" arrangement, the elder body decided to "donate" the extra funds on hand to wt, as directed.

Brokeback Watchtower

This money grab by those crooks/Governing Body/WT Corporation and forcing a pledge for a regular dollar amount will have some very serious repercussions on future donations, I bet that 95% of the congregations are not making their pledged amount and these negative CO visits pummeling ain't really going to help they are making themselves adversaries by this and many will wake up and stop giving. And so more pummeling and more negativity this might spawn a mass exodus as more and more get sick and tired of these belly aching speeches from these Corporation bosses.
