  What person/persons/group is behind the rebranding of Jehovahs Witnesses

  by truthseeker in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  with the jw rebranding program in full swing, who do you think is behind all this?

  i'm not certain the governing body came up with these ideas.

  at least not the old guard which died off around 2009.. given the fairly recent articles in the kingdom ministry and watchtower about the dangers of the internet and having the latest gadget, this rebranding effort can't have been in the works for much more than three years.. the makeover is slick...very slick...and very clever.

  thou shalt not stay at a hotel that is not on the rooming list.

  work prevented me from attending our assigned district (regional) convention so i arranged my schedule to attend in a different city/weekend.

  i know that's not a problem, brothers and sisters do it all the time.

  They really hammer obedience to the rooming arrangement at the local meetings leading up to the convention. They emphasize that obedience in little things means obedience in bigger things.

  
  

  Here I was disobeying a little thing. How the heck was I supposed to survive Armageddon?

  
  

  Again... Sheesh!

  konceptual99: Did you pay less?

  I have no idea how my rate compared to the prearranged rate. I just paid the rack rate for a walk-in.

  
  

  jhine: Please say that this is a joke

  No joke. I felt wierd getting a room outside THE ARRANGEMENT.

  
  

  jhine: I thought about it and realised that my post sounded ,well flippant for start

  I didn't think it sounded flippant. You're fine.

  THOU SHALT NOT STAY AT A HOTEL THAT IS NOT ON THE ROOMING LIST

  
  

  Work prevented me from attending our assigned district (regional) convention so I arranged my schedule to attend in a different city/weekend. I know that's not a problem, brothers and sisters do it all the time. What had me praying for forgiveness was when I picked a random hotel near the convention center, not knowing whether or not it was a Watchtower approved location.

  
  

  Turns out it was - but they had no more Watchtower blocked rooms available. I took one anyway.

  
  

  Nadab and Abihu. I couldn't get the picture of those men being destroyed for offering up illegitimate fire before Jehovah. Oh how I beseeched Jehovah to forgive me for staying in that room, thinking all weekend how I'm probably wasting my time here because God HATES people who do not follow the direction of the faithful slave.

  
  

  Sheesh!

  Inciting the concept of hatred - Watchtower May 2015

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  we all know that jws think that the world hates them and take it as a badge of honor.

  like all their beliefs they don't just come up with these ideas on their own, they come from indoctrination through the jw publications.. here's what they are being taught in their may 2015 watchtower magazine.

  <<17 pride, materialism, and sexual immorality are just three weapons at satans disposal.

  The Amish have concluded that they are objects of hatred because THEY are the true followers of Jesus, and as such they wear that hatred as a badge of honor. It never occurs to them that the negative attention they receive has anything to do with their handmade clothes, horse and buggy hot rods, funny beards, oddly religious, non-violent life styles.

  
  

  You can tell JWs all day long the real reasons why they are treated as outcasts by society, the fact that it is not really a "hatred" per se... but it will never get in.
