  This GB is really pushing their luck in the local congregations. Many JW’s struggle just to make ends meet. I hope this makes the flock wake up more and more. I also hope it comes back to bite the GB for their brazen and smug attitude.

  1950 Watchtower Bound Volume now Complete!

  by Atlantis in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the 1950 september 15th watchtower is now complete and this will finish the 1950 watchtower bound volume.

  a big thank you to jaydee for all of his hard work of scanning the watchtowers into jpg files which i received and converted into pdf files and made them searchable.

  jaydee worked day and night to get these files finished for us and i really appreciate his kindness... we only had to darken out one name on one shipping label.

  1974 Special Meetings

  by NeonMadman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as we all know, armageddon was just around the corner in 1974. at the district conventions that year, it was announced that there would be two special meetings during the month of september; one would be for interested people (e.g., bible studies, family members, inactive, etc.

  ), and the other would be for baptized publishers.

  these were to be held in place of the service meetings for the two weeks, iirc.

  So I had a conversation with an older brother...

  by My Name is of No Consequence in

  2. experiences

  recently, i was speaking with an older brother who is well into his 80's and is a widower.

  he explained to me that it is tough getting old and that "nothing works right anymore".

  he told me that he was able to get through his 70's with few problems.

  During the 1970’s, 80’s, & 90’s….whenever I would try to discreetly engage others in a group regarding a recent WT study article or assembly talk adjustments that sounded absurd, we all remember peoples reaction. Be careful Bro.…… “You are talking against Christ’s anointed brothers.” Or my favorite…… “Why if I didn’t know better you sound almost like an apostate.”

  Most JW’s were so confident of the special connection their leaders had with the Almighty. Do not suggest that you were ever questioning them!! It may sound mean but I really feel zero sympathy for these older JW’s and their delusions of grandeur. Many were smug & haughty eagerly expecting the rest of mankind to be destroyed.

  Remember their famous go to scripture, “For whatever a man is sowing, this he will also reap.”

  Oh and by the way remember their attitude and boastful feelings decades ago:

  WT September 15, 1971 p. 564 par. 22 Set Apart from the World

  22 All who seek a place in the redeemed society of mankind thereby come into association with the happiest people on earth—Jehovah’s witnesses. These are the only people who know for a certainty where they are going.

  WT March 1, 1988 p. 17 My Life in Jehovah’s Spirit-Directed Organization

  Indeed, in every country, Jehovah’s people are the best and the happiest!

  WT March 1, 1989 p. 3 How to Identify True Ministers of God

  However, true ministers of God not only have duties and requirements but also have many privileges. In fact, as a group, they are the most privileged, the most successful, and by far the happiest group on earth today, as you will see in the next article.

  So be it then, many JW’s who never remotely anticipated the year 2016 arriving have gotten old and will die in this old system. How happy are they now?

  As far as I’m concerned they are getting exactly what they deserve.

  And remember all this crap and self-importance just continues.....after all it’s the..... ”The Best Life Ever.”

  Need help compiling a list of the latest changes in doctrine and practices

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have former jws looking at jwfacts.com in order to update themselves with what is happening with the religion, so that they can better understand their jw family.

  it thought it would help if there was a page devoted to what has changed since 2000. .

  2012 oct release of jw.org - jws encouraged to download their own publications and use ipads at meetings and field service.

  don't know if anyone else caught this subtle but malicious photo from the 12/13/15 wt study article.. not sure how to post pictures here, but the photo is on the website's copy of the article, just below paragraph 12:.

  This religion is shameless. It truly has gone off the rails and becoming crazier by the day. Now that I'm out, I'm kind of looking forward to what the year 2016 will bring. But I wish I could get my last 35 years back, what a tremendous waste of time and energy. Shame on me!!! Why didn't I wake up sooner?
