i think it's kind of funny.
how do they explain more people this year than lasts?
i thought the number was suppose to get lower as they died off?
I recently had it explained like this:
The number of GENUINE anointed is very low. It could be as low as 400. This was told to a sister by a heavy of the canadian bethel family. So just remember there may be 5 more partakers at Memorial but are they GENUINE.?????
There you have it folks.

in an informal announcement at service meetings this week (corroborated by the question box in the january 2005 our kingdom ministry, pg 7) jws interested in contributing to the asian tsunami disaster should contribute directly to the "worldwide work" (the general fund).. the entire article referenced above: .
what is the best way to make contributions for the benefit of needy brothers in other lands?.
at times, we hear about brothers in another land who have come into material need because of persecution, disaster, or other difficult circumstances.
Ezekiel 3,
You are right on and have eloquently expressed the sentiments of many of us here who are "CLOAKED" for the sake of family.

my telephone conversation with the watchtower society, was a sincere attempt to find out what active role the watchtower is taking to help the tsunami victims.

watchtower call on tsunami disaster.. 1-718-560-5000. wt-recording--thank you for calling jehovah's witnesses.. wt rep--jehovah's witnesses, may i help you?.
I was at the book study this week and not one word was spoken about the disaster. Two prayers and not one mention of the greatest disaster on humandkind.
After the book study my husband asked the conductor what he thought about this horrendeous tragedy and his response: IT'S A WARMUP FOR ARMAGHEDDON.
Seems to me that WTS and its members rejoice over other peoples suffering. For them its an indication of what they are waiting for.
What a sick mentality!!!!!!!!!!!!

To be fair on the WTS...they are not a relief organisation...they have a relief department , however it does not operate on the same scale as other dedicated charities or organisations
This is true BUT watchtower discourages its members from contributing to other relief org that can render real help.
There is nothing fair about the WTS. They are callous and uncaring. And they don't give a hoot about others' suffering.
Thanks Voyager for that interesting read. I wanted to call myself but feared that I would lose control and say samething nasty. You were very diplomatic about it.

bible truths revealed:.
the end times.
those that seek an understanding of the scripture will be assisted according to that which is written in the bible.
I will assist those with faith in acquiring the necessary instruction to be worthy of salvation.Thanks but no thanks. I don't believe I need anyone's help to be worthy of salvation.
By the way what makes you think that YOU have the necessary tools to help ME be worthy of salvation?
Inquiring minds want to know.

does anyone here know how i can find mario?
he is not responding to my phone calls.
the last i heard from him was wednesday night, around 6 p.m. or so, dec.22, 04. .
I was wondering if perhaps his family overseas got him a ticket and he is out of the country. That would be a good thing for him to be with his family right now.
((((Mario))))))) where ever you are, I hope that you are O.K.

i think we should all wish the gb a very merry christmas.
i'm sure many will be able to find the "appropriate" greetings for those who direct and inspect the "spiritual slop" before feeding it to rank and file.
Good Idea
Merry Christmas to all and may the end be just around the corner.
And Gumby : you crack me up. I had a good belly laugh.

Buy a cooked rotisserie chicked and cut it up on a bed of lettuce greens. Add some croutons and bottled ceasar dressing and you have a meal.

this is what was in the kingdom ministry of august, 1980:.
announcements.
Oh that Ray Franz. Don't you guys know? He wanted to take over the society. Got a little too jelous 'cause his uncle was the president and he wanted the honor Freddy had.
This is what was being said about him in the early 80's round these parts.
