page 6 of the september 2015 public wt, under the heading "how is our ministry financed"our work is supported entirely by voluntary donations.
(2 corinthians 9:7) in 1879, the second issue of this magazine stated: zions watch tower [as this magazine was then called] has, we believe jehovah for its backer, and while this is the case it will never beg nor petition men for support.
we have not wavered from that policy.
Blondie: I think they just post the accounts report on the bulletin board. I remember in Brooklyn, we had a small donation box in the home and I'd have to count it with the conductor and then hold onto the money and the receipt until the meeting later that week.
That reminds, did anyone know that apparently 'bulletin board' is a bad word for JW's? Something about the catholic church using it.
melita jaracz' life story (september 15, 2015 watchtower) said her husband ted jaracz died on wednesday, june 9, 2010. .
this was exactly one week after raymond franz died on wednesday, june 2, 2010. .
jaracz once helped to "kill" franz.
from reading my previous post many of you know i am a worldly person and have been a life long child advocate.
my heart goes out to the jw children and women.
these last 5 months education here and jwfacts, jwstruggles, has been very enlightening.
so, i was thinking - who of the above still has the most influence on current wts doctrine and dogma?.
rutherford obviously created the smokescreen around 1914/607 but overall his work has been superseded i would suggest.. knorr created the various schools and they or their offspring still live on.
wasn't it during his tenure that all the blood doctrine, types/anti types (now chucked away of course), transplants etc came along?
just found this on the jw site.
thought i should share:.

ok so the official helper isn't the same as the nethinim. got it.
it's all so confusing for no reason. they should just call them Bethel Big Shots because that's what it really comes down to.

That list is basically what were referred to as "heavyweights" at bethel. i guess they just have an additional title now.
geez. Don Adams is super old and I think Curzan is too. What the hell do they do. Also IIRC Wischuk rocks a bow tie every day. Never trust a guy with a bowtie. Perla is a weirdo too.
Also I'm pretty sure those dudes do not claim to be anointed (at least not right now) so they probably won't be on the GB.
i was a bethelite for some time a couple of years ago.
some of the best days for bethelites were when there was ice cream for dessert.
now, they are asking (new release video at conventions) kids to give away ice creams money... for what?
Those sisters were brutal, man.
Also "glean" is one of those words that is way over used at bethel. i hated it.
i went to see the new mad max movie last night: "fury road.".
this post-apocalyptic world is not recycled gray, it is blazingly colorful australian desert terrain with wide shots that will stop your heart.have you ever seen an heironymous bosch painting of hell with its where's waldo panoply of brutish, demonic, figures inflicting torments willy-nilly as far as the eye can see?
well, fury road makes bosch look like a knit-one-purl-two doily maker at a sunday brunch.. director miller has thought about this movie, planned it, sketched it, worked it, perfected it millisecond by millisecond before scene one was ever shot.one second of onscreen activity has more interesting business happening than two hours spent by a voyeur in a nudist colony of playboy bunnies.. what is watching this film all about?
have you seen this?.
