  a european jehovah's witness, who served in an important branch, has sent me the following rumor.. some serious sources are mentioned.

  it clearly shake my perspective of what is going to happen in the coming months.. i'm totally shocked !.

  the law firm managing all the interests of the wt has studied the problem in europe on data protection and actions on files and protocols of child abuse.

  These days it not really that hard being a witness.

  if you are a true believer, then you are toast.

  because you will be a slave to everything the watchtower, circuit overseers, elders, pioneers, imply.

  believe me, there are not many true believers anymore, and the majority of them are old.

  Are the G.B.members really good business people ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if i was an author of a book i think i would be over the moon if i was guaranteed a sale of around 5 million or more books for my work.. the jehovah`s witnesses have over 8 million members plus relatives that are fringe dwellers who come to the memorial once a year ,.

  so what a gold mine they have been sitting on as a publishing house .. why didn`t they keep publishing books for the faithful ,they could have even upped the price , and the faithful would have paid especially in prosperous country`s in the west.. they could have milked this venture for years to come as the faithful would have bought anything they would have published .. and their prophets (profits) would have soared ,literally and figuratively for many more years to come ..

  Watchtower Now Considers Elders to Be Clergy Class

  by Roger Kirkpatrick in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  my father's uncle and spiritual mentor, benjamin ray kent, had been a deacon (ministerial servant) in watchtower founder c. t. russell's home ecclesia (congregation) in brooklyn, and also served as russell's personal secretary at brooklyn bethel.

  after attending university my father served a 5-year prison term during world war ii, supposedly for his loyalty to god.

  while his mother's proud and patriotic family disowned my father for his decision, it was his uncle ray who regularly visited him in prison.. that is the culture in which i was raised, and for much of my life, i took great pride in the belief that my father was a man of integrity to god.

  so....i’m going to rewind for a second.

  one of my brother-in-laws came over one evening late in 2016, november i think, just to hang out.

  we hadn’t seen him in a while and this is before we told anyone in his family we were out.

  Commuter Bethelite video

  by no-zombie in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for those who missed last weeks clam meeting, there was a video played that was amazing ... however not in good way.. we are all aware how thousands of full time bethelites world wide got the boot and put out onto the street.

  some having giving most of their lives to the organization, but often with no real way to support themselves other than to depend on the generosity of others.

  so when this video talked about how special it would be for those who could step up and become a commuter bethelite, it made me think how calculating the governing body must be.
