  It depends on geography. My parents received one of the famous "shepherding call" and were told zoom is here to stay.

  But then it depends on the will of the "mothership". If mother says Zoom should be chopped and it will be chopped

  Sunday January 15 is my 76th birthday. I answer some of your questions.

  happy birthday 2 me!!.

  sunday is my 76th birthday and i know that you want to know how it "feels" to have outlived my usefulness, to have lost my natural beauty (being reduced to wrinkles and flab), and constantly walking into a room not knowing why i'm there.

  you also are curious as to how i can continue to find a reason to live since none of my kids think my opinions have any possible value, most of my facebooks friends i wouldn't recognize if i tripped over them on my way into starbucks, and my monthly expenditure on bird treats exceeds u.s. spending on the military.

  Front row seats watching the collapse of watchtower

  by Indoubtbigtime in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i’m a pimo ministerial servant and i won’t fade because i want to keep my front row seats watching what happens next few years.. my predictions are that this current governing body will slowly die off and the current younger helpers will be the next gb.

  they will eventually have new light that they were wrong about 1914 and the overlapping generations.. the new light will be something on the lines of the last days are now because of king of north king of south pushing each other etc etc.

  they will do their very best to burry old literature and try to change the past trying to make it sound like they were right all along just as they have done for 150 years now.

  I don't believe it will collapse in the near future. It will change and become more mainstream but it will be here.

  Seems to be a census on vaccine status

  by Indoubtbigtime in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the upcoming km school for all elders and servants is going to be in person only with no provision for video conferencing.. only fully vaccinated may attend.

  meaning if you missed your last booster you are no longer fully vaccinated.. every coordinator of body of elders has to ask every single ms and elder if they have kept up with all their boosters and are fully vaccinated or they can’t attend.. this seems to be a census the gb want to know how many are keeping up with booster shots.

  apparently there is an elders school coming up, and then we have the kingdom ministry school which I will hopefully be going to as I am an MS

  You want to go to this school? Why? Stand your ground and do what you want

  Should Jehovah's Witnesses Trust the Governing Body?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if there is evidence that jesus invisibly chose specific men at headquarters in brooklyn new york in 1919 to be his faithful slave and that mandate and ability passed on to future directors...then the answer might just be a resounding maybe.. what is the evidence for this invisible appointment and what is the evidence that this is just watchtower mythology?.

  i hope jws like scholar and fisherman will explain why the trust the gb.. i must be honest, i see no evidence at all to put trust in either the 1919 selection or the current men taking the lead in warwick.

  "do not put your trust in mortal man who cannot save" Psalm 146

  I've never been close enough to one of them to feel if they are human, but I am pretty sure from the broadcast that they fit the human profile.

  NO , these men should not be trusted.

  How come the old boys on the GB don't get kicked out at 70?

  by eyeslice in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it would appear that circuit overseers (no dos these days i guess) are taken off at 70 years old.

  even older ones in bethels are disposed (sorry 're-assigned to the field) of before they get too past it.. how come though the old boys on the gb aren't shown the door at 70 and replaced by younger men - obviously of the recently anointed type?

  they don't look a particularly fit bunch so they can't claim special mightiness because of doing 'the lord's work'.

  When you are at the top, who would do the kicking. That would be called a coup.

  time goes by so fast.

  who remembers 1975, the ray franz incident, the generation change in 1995, the blood fractions, alternative service, participation in ochr, aid afrique, the historical research by james pellechia, jolene chu and johannes stephan wrobel?

  This is one of my most vivid memories: I was a late teen and was working in service with the CO's wife. I was a really goody goody and I was telling her how I would like to work at bethel. She told told me that bethel has issues too and how there was a lot of apostasy and that bro Franz's nephew (who later found out was Ray) had become an apostate and how he was trying to take over the organization.

  I remember being struck with that as an impressionable teen. Years later when I truly understood what happened with Ray Franz that conversation came to mind.

  I had the opportunity to talk to Ray on a few occasions and I was always bothered how this wonderful human being could be so maligned.
