I missed this one, in another article....." Jesus’ illustration of the sheep and the goats teaches us that those with the earthly hope have the honor of loyally supporting Jesus’ anointed brothers The GB in the preaching and teaching work." = I can't believe no other christians have figured out that sheep and goats has nothing to do with those who love their neighbor, etc, but just means those who take the HONOR of LOYALLY blind devotion to Anthony Morris and friends. It's so obvious!

"Jehovah has helped the faithful and discreet slave to become steadily more discreet"
by EndofMysteries in"as we might expect, over the years jehovah has helped the faithful and discreet slave to become steadily more discreet.

"As we might expect, over the years Jehovah has helped “the faithful and discreet slave” to become steadily more discreet." 3/2015 Study WT
I guess they just admitted their self title as the discreet slave was NOT discreet. I think they just admitted they are the UNdiscreet slave, which means evil slave.
Another gem in this article.....
"In 1924, The Watch Tower said that the Samaritan pictured Jesus; the road from Jerusalem to Jericho, which ran downhill, pictured mankind’s downward course since the rebellion in Eden; the thieves on the road pictured giant corporations and profiteers; and the priest and the Levite typified ecclesiastical systems. Today, our literature uses that illustration to remind all Christians that we must be impartial in rendering aid to those in need, especially in a spiritual sense. Does it not make us happy to see that Jehovah makes his teachings clear to us?" ----------- don't you love how they spindoctor that, physical aid to EVERYBODY but then they insert espcially spiritual so they don't give ANY aid to anybody including their own members then the line, "DOES it make us happy to see that The GB make their teachings clear to us?"
Next they take the parable of the faithful slave and 10 virgins and claim one means the GB themselves and the other means everybody else. 2 parables about the same group of people but they twist it to fit their agenda that they are the pious slave that all others must obey. " Remember the context. Jesus had just discussed his “faithful and discreet slave.” That slave would prove to be a small group of anointed men who would take the lead among Christ’s followers during the last days. Jesus warned those men that they must remain faithful. Next, he broadened his focus and gave this parable to admonish all his anointed followers in the last days to “keep on the watch” lest they miss out on their precious reward."
NEXT is the call for following the GB without ANY date or deadline in mind. I guess they are starting to prepare everybody for why the GB isn't starting and the end coming anytime soon........
" They count the cost of faithful service, realizing from the outset that their assignment will mean giving up many of the material advantages available in Satan’s world. They devote themselves exclusively to Jehovah the GB and serve him, not with some date or deadline in mind, but out of love and loyalty to him and to his Son."
NEXT, a big fear mongering "evidently, it's probable' then spun as FACT lie they push to fear anointed ones........ "Is it not likely, then, that this part of the parable focuses on what happens just prior to that climactic judgment? It would seem so, for by that time the anointed will have received their final sealing. (NOW ITS FACT)So, then, before the great tribulation starts, all the faithful anointed on earth will have received their final sealing. ( Rev. 7:1-4 ) From then on, their calling is sure. But think about the years before the tribulation begins. What would happen to anointed ones who failed to remain watchful, who lost their integrity? They would lose their heavenly reward. Obviously, they would receive no final sealing prior to the start of the tribulation. (GB wanting to put emphasis on obeying them and whoever isn't going their field circus won't get their sealing)
it ends with them making this nice claim......
"Was Jesus saying that many of his anointed servants would prove unfaithful and need to be replaced? No. Remember, he had just warned his “faithful and discreet slave” never to turn into an evil slave. That did not mean that he expected such an outcome. Similarly, this parable conveys a powerful warning. Just as five virgins were foolish and five were discreet - - At the start of this article they admit they have had to be made more discreet, which means the GB was NOT discreet, which means THEY are the foolish virgins.

What's with this "no windows in kingdom halls" thing?
by Trapped in JW land ini hear many people on this forum say that kh's don't have windows.
but i have never been to one that didn't have windows.

Because there had been reports that some people would not "pay attention to the important things" during the Sunday brainwash sessions. While they were looking out the window to pass the time by they were missing the spiritual smogresboard from the "faithful and discreet slave" (GB 3:28).

O and the video should be called The Stepford Elders, they seem very cold and robotic, not even human, to a very creepy extent.

This should be on wikileaks too, definitely all over youtube.
On the fishtank video, what's really sick is the girl is pregnant, wants to marry/be with the guy, and the elders want him to cut her off. It's far too late for that when a baby is on the way.

i phased it slowly, starting in early november to avoid the physical side effects of coming down.

If you are on effexor, then the anger is the meds itself and withdrawal as well. That stuff is dangerous, it should be outlawed. It literally makes people ticking time bombs. You'd pretty much have to lock yourself home a few days or a week and not be around anybody.

Those KIOSKS are going to be the new kingdomhalls of tomorrow. They will soon be installing turnstiles with a credit card/cash/atm scanner. People will be assigned a certain time to show up each week, insert their cash, then enter and sit down for a video presentation of the weekly meeting by a pious GB member. Then on the hour inbetween, the public can give their money to enter to meetings as well. They will be 24/7 KHs. Also they will have a closed curtained section where a person can enter M-F from 9 to 5 to have their very own live video conferenced judicial committee with 3 other elders. They pay about $25, then confess and the elders live from Bethhell can decide if they should be DFed. With new light however, the elders may get a direct insight that at that minute if they deposit an extra $100, they get away with a public reproof instead of DF.

When I was a kid it was 'the new system', then it was 'the new world', then it started getting linked to NWO(conspiracy stuff) and not sure what it is now. I heard before my time they called headquarters, 'mother'.
