  All the German JWS are ordered to their KH Wednesday evening to listen to a Warren Sheweldt. Never heard of him. Who is he?

  This is what one of the local papers printed in their religious section (Google-translated from German):

  "We can look forward to visiting our traveling servant Ralf Jeske and his wife Evelyn. In addition to many common Mission dates are expected edifying lectures and Conversations. Moreover, for Wednesday, a live audio transmission planned from Selters/Taunus. Warren Sheweldt responsible for Missionary activity of large parts of Europe is responsible, it is us a lecture giving an interesting insight about the activities and experiences of our brothers in neighboring countries."

  Facing the elders - The right way to do it?

  so now you have it in your mind, that the wts are not what they say they are, they lie and what have you.. nowwwww, next time you dont go out in fieldservice, and the next time, and the next time people start to wonder.. well, time comes and you have to explain yourself to who ever.

  your mom, your dad, an elder, who ever.

  now you cant just go about saying, "well, one of the things is that new light is a bunch of crap, because russel predicted this in 1914 and that in 1918 and that in.....".

  Remember, you are dealing with the dub elite - keep it brief, clear, and simple.

  It's best to refer them to "our spiritual heritage" utilizing their own literature:

  Take Time to Think About What You Read: What is going to be your objective as you read? Merely covering pages — completing the book — should not be your aim. The Proclaimers book contains a record of your spiritual heritage. You ought to know it well. Take time to think about the implications of what you read.

  The Money is Interest-Free, People!!!

  by Yan Bibiyan in

  2. bible

  inspired by another thread on the "who are doing jehovah's will today", i did a little digging into the masterpiece.. pg 25. talks sbout khs and there is the revelation:.

  "...they (khs) are built with donations made to a central fund.

  in every kingdom hall, there is another contribution box for kingdom hall construction worldwide.

  How its's done:

  ---

  Local KH Donations ---> WTBTS ---> Funds (Loans) toward building local KH
  

  ---

  "Man in the middle"

  How it should be done:

  ---

  Local KH Donations ---> Funds (Loans) toward building local KH
  

  ---

  The WTBTS probably would apply a bible-based principle for not allowing the locally funded KH

  In the reminders section of that form, one checkbox reads:
  
  "Have contributions for the worldwide work and the Kingdom Hall Fund been sent to the branch office each month?"

  This surely is a form of pressuring to send money on a monthly basis, is it not? I guess, more voluntary contributions equals increased spiritual blessings.

  i've uploaded a new blog article that addresses the latest dvd release at the current district convention, namely "become jehovah's friend!

  " - the tale of young caleb and his brush with divine wrath over a plastic toy wizard.

  a link to the article, which includes the youtube samples of the production, is below:.

  "... And since it's my privilege on behalf of the Governing Body to introduce to you a new animated video series entitled "Become Jehovah's Friend". This is just a preview of what we have in store for you in the future.
  
  Children can learn so much during their formative years. Lessens they learn at a very young age can make an impression that lasts a lifetime.
  
  It is our prayer that this new series will help your children to learn to make God's heart rejoice. We love you very much. But our love for you is just a reflection of Jehovah's great love for you and your little ones." (Anthony Morris III, Governing Body member)

  More is coming in the way of child indoctrination.

  The branch office will forward the special pioneer reimbursement once each month, based upon the amount requested. The request is not to exceed the amount set by your branch office for each month.

  I bet you, just requesting a couple of months in a row the max amount set by the branch office will catapult you to your dream job in secular employment really fast.

  For those who can afford to do it: Don't DA or DF or fade - just quit going from one day to the next for good.

  I am sure the inner circle removed your privileges because you no longer lived up the biblical requirements as set forth in 1. Timothy 3:8-10.

  Any other reason(s) given would just amount in failing to meet the company performance roster.

  Watchtower Library Question

  by peggaloon in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i have never seen a watchtower library cd so this is a very basic question:.

  if you get a 2003 watchtower library cd, does it contain all publications from the 1970's or so, up to 2003?.

  then if you get the 2004 watchtower library cd, it will contain everything that the prior cd has, plus 1 years extra?.
