Any successful "attack"- ( punitive judgments , jailings, account or property seizures by governments or courts ) will be viewed as coming from "Gog of Magog".
So sad...
hi there, although i have been a lurker here for a while now i've not yet posted a new topic, so here goes nothing lol.. i have been thinking a lot lately on all the changes and the branch visits, specifically the uk branch visit where apparently it has bean mentioned the great tribulation is about to start.. since i've not heard the full talk and only heard certain items from it i got to thinking that maybe this is the org's way of saying the watchtower is about to go down due to all the cover ups and the long list of discrepancies.. maybe i am way off the mark here, what does everone else think?.

during the depression people committed suicide because everything they had invested in was gone overnight in an instant.
many people are very fragile creatures.
if by some freaking chance, (like enron, tiger woods, or the morning of august 1945 in hiroshima) the wts gets caught in a humongous scandal, say like links to human sex trafficking, (i can fantasize right) and the government steps in to investigate and finds them guilty and legally shuts them down permanently, will there be tons of suicides?
I believe the JW phenomenon will go down in world history as one of the most damaging social experiments ever.
Yes, I sadly think there will be thousands of suicides.
I really expect this. Gut wrenching.
did you watch the story about the jw who was working as a burger boy at some diner and his boss wanted him to work on sunday during the time of his meeting?
this faithful jw decided he could not attend a later meeting (6 pm sunday meeting) and soon quit his job(or got fired to attend his sunday meeting) so he could attend the sunday meeting he was assigned to.
i think he was on welfare because this story states he won't work on sunday morning because that's when his meeting is!
There's an elder and his wife that attend every hall in the area.
They change to another hall when the morning meeting cycles through for their cong.
His wife does not get up in the morning.
I've NEVER seen her at any meeting for service...Ever.
The group would always have to pick her up at her home when she was ready.
Hypocrites! Go to a different meeting to keep your job? Sorry.

thanks.
Thanks. I have some things I would like to look up and do not want to just start new threads when these have been covered. If I have something to add I may bump it up after a comment.
heyo!.
i'm quite interested in knowing the average age of those of us who use this forum.
i made a quick strawpoll that you can find at the following link: http://strawpoll.me/4340636 just pick an age and click "vote" if you wish to participate.. admins: if this breaks any rules, i apologize in advance..
when my niece was very little (over 20 years ago), barely walking or talking, my mother decided to teach her "where jehovah lives".
she would coach her and say, "where does jehovah live?
" in a sing-song voice.
i think most on here will be familiar with the caller hook up system that many congregations use.
visit about 2 months ago.
during our servant and elders meeting he was talking up the importance of meeting attendance and how we "gods spirit appointed men" must take the lead on making every meeting.
so the head of the elders the cobe or whatever their called was the one who talked with me when i had doubts.
or i should say came running when my wife called the elders on me.
he while not really looking at my 10+ page document proving one of their major doctrines wrong and trying to find out my true motives.
I really expect a mass awakening.
The confusion from within as people keep "falling out of the truth" will be overwhelming.
That's my opinion.
Now if that's not having one's "feet shod with the equipment of the good news of peace", I don't know what is...
Eph 6:15
at the end of april, there was a zone visit in france, with tv broadcast in all kh.. g. losch told he received a letter from a girl, 10 years old, baptised at 5, reg pioneer since 4 years !
what a fine example, he said....... let s imagine the faces of the parents in the kh!
i was happy to see i was not the only one to find it crazy.. if you have a child, you know how mature he is at 5. how can a child preach 2.5hours/day after 7hours of school and homework to do??
Children enjoy watching TV. This is a mind controlling guilt mechanism for JW children. Devious.
Just like the Noah cartoon.
