DATA, the fact that God has never answered one of your prayers says more about you than about Him, and it ain't good.

What if Everyone Demaded Answers About Where the Money is and What it is Used For?
by TTATTelder inwhat if right in the middle of rolling out their latest money-grabbing scheme, there was an uprising demanding financial transparency?.
i thought jehovah was a god of organization and numbers.
isn't that why we report time and have all these annual reports?.

Listener, I thought the scripture would explain it.
Jehovah says no one should approach Him empty-handed.
When I give money to the CCJW, in my mind I am giving it to Jehovah.
What happens to my gift to Jehovah once it leaves my hands is not my responsibility.
It becomes the responsibility of the CCJW.

I give money to the CCJW (Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses) just like I pay my taxes to the IRS.
They are responsible to Jehovah for what they do with the money. It's not my problem.
"...none should appear before Jehovah empty-handed." (Deut 16:16)

A farce elder here
by His Excellency injust to share a little about me:.
i was recently appointed an elder, about 6 months ago now, and that is exactly two years after my awakenning, but funny that the appointment came also about 2 years after i had completely lost all faith in god and had been leading a full time anti-jw life .
makes you wonder the role of the holy spirit in the entire nomination or appointment process.. .

Well, his excellency, you are the quintessential wolf in the congregation.
May Jehovah rebuke you.

THE GRAND APOSTATE "WALKOUT" - January 1, 2015
by RagingBull inafter knowing ttatt for many years now...i had made up my mind long ago that after 2014, i would no-longer subject myself to the boredom, pain, and frustration of following this cult...the wt...the borg.. so...i made up my mind that since the wtbts/gb makes such a big deal as to the "significance" of the year 1914 and this year 2014, there can be no greater time for me to leave it all behind.
i daydreamed of how awesome and telling it would be if everyone that could ( because i do know that some have personal circumstances of their own, as i did too) would just .... walkout...never to attend/step foot in a kingdom hall from that moment on.. independence day of sorts?
there is too much evidence, too many videos, blogs, books, news reports and lawsuits for me to keep lying to myself.

New "Donation Arrangement" is a DECOY!
by The Searcher input yourself in the org's position - distasteful as that is - and come up with a solution to solve the problems of not only recovering their stock market losses, but also, ensuring an increase in their dwindling revenue stream.. the major problem is, donations are voluntary (with no future guarantees) whereas pledges are compulsory - in the heart and mind of the giver!.
however, far too many will probably forget/refuse to keep up their monthly tax - with no way of knowing who is 'paying the man', and who is not.
master stroke - make plan a 100% certainty to fail in the first year, based on the 'anonymity' of the setup.

suavojr, I have at least 3 reasons to believe that the next 18 months will be eventful, but I prefer not to elaborate because it's complicated and I would just be ridiculed. Just think of me as Cassandra.

Keyser, what could be more selfless than praying for others?
I pray for the Kingdom, for it will end everyone's suffering, one way or another.
