Those bastards, they prepped everyone up. AND IT WORKED!!!
Yep and it worked so well without most even knowing what was going on kinda like the invisible presence!
at long last, after 140 years of failed prophecies, it appears that the borg finally got one right!
recall the odd little article published back in the november 15th, 2013 wt about the 7 shepherds 8 dukes (anti-type) and the evil assyrian (anti-type) and some silly nonsense about the assyrians attack on the vulnerable wtbts.
page 20 paragraph 17 of that strange article contained this foreboding prophecy from the faithful and discreet slave, (anti-type);.

the wt today was horrific.
i was jumping out of my skin.
the writing department has hot to have some lose cannons writing.
Looks to me like Abraham and Sarah were great scam artists. As they wandered around in the ‘wilderness’, for whatever stupid reason they did so, they would likely run low on provisions, so good old Abraham pons his half-sister/wife off, first on Pharoah and then on Abimelech who both want to take Sarah for a wife. Well, in steps jehober to the rescue and both Pharoah and Abimelech are threatened by jehober. Both realize that they have been scammed. They then ‘give’ the Abraham/Sarah scam team a mother lode of sheep, cattle, donkeys, camels, male and female slaves, and Abimelech even throws in 1,000 pieces of silver.
Moral of the story is; lying, deceit, scamming in the name of jehober pays off big time. Sort of like ‘theocratic warfare’ where anything goes. And, no wonder the Israelites were a bunch of nut cases. The ‘father and mother’ of the nation were in an incestuous relationship.

At long last, after 140 years of failed prophecies, it appears that the borg finally got one right! Recall the odd little article published back in the November 15th, 2013 wt about the 7 Shepherds 8 Dukes (anti-type) and the “evil Assyrian” (anti-type) and some silly nonsense about the Assyrian’s attack on the ‘vulnerable’ wtbts. Page 20 paragraph 17 of that strange article contained this foreboding “prophecy” from the “faithful and discreet slave”, (anti-type);
“At that time, the life-saving direction that we receive from Jehovah’s organization may not appear practical from a human standpoint. All of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not.”
Well, that time came less than a year later for jehober’s people to ‘receive direction from jehober’s ORGANIZATION that was NOT practical, was NOT sound, and was NOT strategic from a human standpoint’. And, we were “ready to obey ANY instructions” and we did (at least here in the USA)
So how was this “not practical, not sound, not strategic prophecy” fulfilled?
Dear Brothers,
Please send us all your cash that’s in the congregation’s bank account, deed all kingdom halls to the borg, and send us a monthly tithe equal to the amount of your former kh ‘mortgage’ payment—for life.
Warm Christian love—the gb!

JW's can't do oral! It's against jehobers law.

would it really affect them?
how would it affect volunteers at any construction project since that work would now be taxable.
any materials they buy would be taxable.
No need to worry about that. Didn't you guys hear---Armageddon is 'right around the corner'?

knowing ttat but still holding on to christian beliefs, was it of any value?
are they finally leaning toward being a more "christian" religion?
The name jehober was still mentioned twice as much as Jesus at the rc. It was absolutely the 'lamest' convention (video fest) I have ever attended. Even my 87 year old, uber-duber, die-hard, mom commented, "Where's the meat?" Had to laugh at that comment. We had that 'porky' little gb brother there in Long Beach, Sanderson. I think he even had a hard time trying to keep a straight face when he talked about what a "spiritual feast" we all enjoyed. 7,000+ attended---29 baptized. Man the growth is phenomenal!

personally i think this is wonderful.
i have nothing against gay people and wish them only the best.. but of course i'm in a minority of one, the jw's around me are posting away on fb the most homophobic vitriol imaginable.
a lot of them are even saying that it's the start to armageddon!!.
I can remember when 'gay' meant------happy. But then I can also remember when 'soon' meant----------soon.

observing our local unemployed pioneers and how long they take to get to their first or next call, usually taking the longest route to get to one they know won't be there anyway.
along the way it's gossipy this and that.
pioneers?
100 hours per month when I pioneered back in the late 60's. I was trained well by a long-time pioneer on how to s t r e t c h your time. My favorite was find a shady porch, hope no one was home, and just rehearse your 'sermon' to the householder, who's 'invisible' presence was most appreciated.

since at least back to the 1960s in canada, jws have been travelling to mexico for cancer treatment.
and, i believe, other medical treatments.
because i watched my uncle die of cancer back in 1962, unable to receive treatment because the doctors couldn't operate without blood, i have always been curious as to why the jws with cancer were going to mexico.
I live in California and know many,many jw's that have gone to TJ, Mexico for cancer, arthritis treatment. To be honest, I think it's a crap shoot. Some are helped and some just die. Cancer treatment in the USA has basically the results. I really think the excitement for many jw's in going to Mexico was the clandestine nature of having to 'smuggle' the "tonic" back across the border. Kinda like having to go "underground" because of persecution.
I just lost a very dear friend, only 51 years old, to a rare form of leukemia. The only 'real' option the US doctors offered was blood transfusions which they admitted only produced a 10% survival rate. So off to TJ, Mexico we went for the "tonic". $1,100.00 was the cost for the "tonic" and he died a week later. RIP.

im sure to use this the next time i accidentally get sucked into an argument with someone.
im not ever understanding the idea behind any christian religion picking and choosing what they want to believe and follow, then have the nerve to claim they are right, when clearly this is obviously done.
here is a site that shows not only how bloodthirsty and evil the god of the hebrew bible was, but how more ridiculous it is for jws to follow one twisted 'commandment' about eating blood, not only reading it wrong, but then not to do all the other commandments, willingly , do they think they are ancient israelites ?
One of my all time favorite bed time stories is how the Levites "lovingly" slaughtered about 150,000 animals during the inauguration of Solomon's temple. jehober, the loving god of the bible, must have been especially pleased. Wonder what they did with all the thousands of gallons of blood?
