  The Lion Awakes

  by eric hendrickson in

  2. experiences

  my name is eric hendrickson.

  i have been on a journey led by the holy spirit which has brought to this point that has allowed for me to open the seventh seal and understand god's master plan.

  i am the lion from the lost tribe of judah who has come to the world and be the messiah king.

  Google, Apple & how Next Gen INTERNET will DECIMATE the Watchtower Society

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  think the early 80's.

  one of the most important events in watchtower history was the release of crisis of conscience by former governing body member f. franz.

  slow distribution of this "apostate" book lead to a minor loss of members.

  It is. Of course they won't print a side by side of peak publishers. Too revealing.

  this has probably been touched on before but i thought i would mention it again.

  the problem i have with all the redundant bethelites.

  they were virtually getting free labour.

  aged 18 to 30 can mostly work harder than people aged 40

  Key word "can". You haven't spent much time at "bethel" ;)

  Cedars/Lloyd has been under a lot of community fire recently. Its nice to see he is still focused and cranking out anti watchtower bombshells. Old info or not, he makes it concise and relevant.

  Is zeal beginning to vanish?

  by Caupon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it has to be starting to fade somehow.

  the very last time i went out in field service, hardly any were out.

  maybe just about nine people were out and man if you could just see their faces.

  "I do what I'm supposed to do just to keep them away from me."

  This is exactly what is happening and I commented on it yesterday in relation to young and middle age "brothers" not interested anymore in going out for ms or elder.

  Beards galore at the Assembly

  by Truthexplorer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  ok, at our recent assembly, i noticed that there were quite a lot of brothers wearing beards.

  not just the older dudes, but right across a range of ages, young men, middle aged men and older men.

  is watchtower beginning to relax this rule at last?

  "brothers" are learning to play the game. They don't really want to run the microphones, give parts or even go out in the ministry. If sporting a beard can eliminate those burdens, why not?

  WTS Throws Hail Mary Pass with Major Paradigm Shift

  by Socrateswannabe in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  let me begin by stating that i have no insider information, this is merely my observation.

  i believe that some time ago in watchtower land, somebody at hq posed these questions (probably an outside consultant because i don't think the gb is this hip): .

  what would happen if we cut in half the average age of the responsible brothers in the organization?

  All possibilities, but in the congregations I am still familiar with, they can't get the younger brothers to do anything and the majority of the middle aged brothers are worse. More interested in material things and doing the minimum to keep the ancient elders off their back. But I am in California and in Los Angeles. We are modern day Sodom and Gomorrah according to Brooklyn.

  Watchtower purchases CoC copyright for undisclosed amount!

  Orphan Crow, you have your fingerprints all over this very heavily participated thread and I appreciate your input. But it seems to me, even through the assertions of full knowledge of copyright legislation, much of what you are posting is generalization and frankly wrong. People have challenged Watchtower takedowns and lost. Obviously the issue is not a non-sequitur if it has generated this much discussion. But I respect your position.
