The World's End

by AnonVet in

i just got done watching the world's end.

wow.

just substitute the "blanks" with "witnesses" and it's spot on.

Didn't mind the film but was always wanting the TARDIS to suddenly materialize and for Dr Who to step out. Of course this never happened.

TRUTH or OPINION--which is it when the Governing Body speaks?

by Terry in

when and why did the governing body suddenly appear?.

the governing body of jehovah’s witnesses, for all practical purposes, did not really exist as it does today, until a dangerous crisis** had developed in the watchtower religion at the headquarters beginning of the 1970’s.

historically, the founder of the watchtower corporate empire was a men’s clothing entrepreneur named c.t.

So charismatic was Russell’s persona, many Bible Students began looking at him as more than just a man. These people characterized him as the last prophetic messenger.

The Laodicean Messenger from Revelation.

Well written Terry.

You wrote in a comment:

Russell specified that the Society was to never publish another journal, meaning they could only publish The Watch Tower, which is why when the Judge began to publish The Golden Age, he did so against Russell's wishes, and he published it under a different name.

Technically the Watch Tower Society never published another journal, they merely hold the copyright. Rutherford circumvented this part of Russell's will by using a corporation he himself set up, the People's Pulpit Society (later name changed to Watchtower Bible & Tract Society of New York), to print and publish.

CLAM - 24th March 2016 (Video Vignette)

by Nicholaus Kopernicus in

video - "use insight when comforting others"this was a wt contrived video of a sister who was widowed a year ago, and turns to members of the boe after a meeting in the kingdom hall in a distraught emotional state accompanied by suicidal thoughts.

two members of the boe saw her in her own home later that day.she conveyed that she wanted her life back - that her heart had been ripped out.

the elder acknowledges that "you and dan had a wonderful relationship".

jwleaks

It's quite possible this video was NOT made with the sister's fictitious situation in mind, i.e. loss of husband in death for which the JWs are most likely not to blame. This video will more likely be used to deal with the main problem within the JWs, namely:

- a JW marriage mate leaving, possibly an elder running off with a sister he has been comforting;

- A JW marriage mate, or non-believer, leaving as they see the increase in JW delusion and fanaticism (think of Geoffrey Jackson's delusional appearance before the ARC);

- a JW marriage mate getting d'fed (for whatever reason the local BOE or WT legal department can make up);

- a JW marriage mate seeing the TTATT and becoming a so-called "apostate";

- a JW marriage mate or family member completing suicide themselves;

- a single JW female reaching old age with no husband or children to care for her and realizing she has nothing because she stayed single all her adult life to put kingdom interests (read "Watchtower") first because "the end is so close";

- a JW marriage mate turning out to be a child molester.

July 2016 W T Article Gives Reassurance to Aging Publishers

by BluesBrother in

congregations are full of older ones who were led to expect the end when they were still young enough to work ,and stay forever young.

now these ones face a sparse old age with little provision set aside.

the article ""do not be afraid .

jwleaks

Interestingly I typed in the following phrase "retirement among the elderly" in the Watchtower Online Library and got only one match, an article on why people give up on life:

The restaurant at the end of the universe

by Xanthippe in

jw
friends

i sat outside at a cafe with my cappuccino for the first time today.

the sky was blue, the birds were singing, i could hear a woodpecker in the tall trees.

i closed my eyes and felt the sun on my face for the first time in months and i thought, i could sit here until the end of time.

Favorite character, definitely Zaphod Beeblebrox (both of them).

“I'm up to here with cool, okay? I'm so amazingly cool you could keep a side of meat in me for a month. I'm so hip I have difficulty seeing over my pelvis.” - Beeblebrox, Restaurant at the End of the Universe
