It’s now official - The Governing Body Members are called for Legal Deposition in a Major Court Case Against Jehovah’s Witnesses!

it’s now official - the governing body members are called for legal deposition in a major court case against jehovah’s witnesses!

https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/1ke6cgh/its_now_official_the_governing_body_members_are/.

recent court documents show that members of the jehovah’s witnesses governing body — including former member tony morris — have been officially subpoenaed to give sworn testimony regarding cases of sexual abuse in new york and how the organization dealt with (or essentially hid) them.

I doubt the GB will end up in prison. Any possibility of that and they would move en masse to Buenos Aries and rule from there. I'm sure preparations and funds have been in place ever since they had the new Bethel built there.

1975 !

by Sea Breeze in

how many of you here remember 1975?

i hope the newer generations never forget.the true believers got shamed for it.

those who were hedging their bets, fared much better.

St George of England

This is a great thread. The majority of our congregation were not even born in 1975!

I well remember 1st January 1976, my wife and I had a walk around the garden after breakfast, not sure what we were expecting but of course nothing had changed. We did what what always did on a Bank Holiday, drove to the KH and went on FS. Nobody was interested then as always and ever since. We should have walked on that day!

Bible Reading Schedule, Dumbed Down?

by Slidin Fast in

jw
friends

has any body noticed that the bible reading schedule has been reduced to one chapter per week.

does any one know if this is a policy change or something temporary?

at this rate the complete cycle will take 22 years plus..

St George of England

Yes it is being dumbed down like everything else WT connected.

My page marker is for 2016 Bible reading schedule. It shows:-

Oct 3: Proverbs 1-6
Oct 10: Proverbs 7-11
Oct 17: Proverbs 12-16
Oct 24: Proverbs 17-21
Oct 31: Proverbs 22-26
Nov 7 Proverbs 27-31

So it just shows though I suspect they will say you can now dig deeper

I was a "born-in", mid 1940's. If you're not a troll then my simple advice based on all those years would be :

RUN LIKE HELL!

St George's Day - 2025

by St George of England in

just in case you are planning to celebrate st george's day today, furl up the flag until next monday despite what your diary might say.. no saints day can be celebrated during the week before or after easter so this year it has been postponed until 28 april, next monday.

there have been instances such as 2019 when "politicians" such as keir starmer, theresa may and sadiq khan have waved their flag on the 23rd in error.

Memorial talk the SAME EVERY YEAR no anointed??

by Witness 007 in

yeah so got invited this year and just thought what a waste of my time no one partakes in the wine or bread the talk has been the same for 20 years i would rather stay home.

St George of England

I would disagree with your assessment that the talk has been the same for 20 years. I cannot say when it changed but not so many years ago. We no longer hear anything about the Exodus, Passover or the New Moon. Even the Memorial song has changed.

It's all about the First Century and Jesus New Covenant now. Why is this? Probably realised they do not celebrate it on the correct day.

Any ideas?

Why worship a God that does not help!

by Witness 007 in

so god let 10 million people die in world war 2 but was too busy to help....what kind of diety does this!

if i was god i would have done something .

St George of England

Here's a little song for you:-

Men make Gods of wood and stone

But the true God they've not known,

Ours is God Almighty as he's often shown.

Big chorus

We're Jehovah's Witnesses

We speak out in fearlessness...

No doubt that will be buzzing through a few heads now. I still find it difficult to believe that I was fooled into this twaddle from a baby onwards. So many years wasted for so many.
