i had a patient admitted from a skilled nursing facility/rehab that is an active jw.
the patient had covid-19 as did most of the patients at that facility.
typically the local elders are all involved in these admissions but there is a strict no visitor policy which includes clergy.
Heard that some jws died due to covid
There was a meeting on Friday between Bethel and COs, then COs passed the info to COBEs, and COBEs to elders, and then elders to publishers....the count of JWs who have died of COVID-19 in the US, as of Friday 4/17, is 250. I don't know the count for the entire world.
No way! You mean to tell me that jehober the god that really cares for his sheep would let some of them die during this Satanic pandemic! Can't be true!
just saying!
I really fucked up and gave up toooooo many years of living! Baptized at 12 left when I was 62. Then I checked out!

this is "return to jehovah video" from this weeks meeting.
the use fear to gain more people back in the truth?
what are your thoughts?

I think this video was used at the 2016 convention and now used again.
I was an elder back in the early 70's. We had a 'campaign' to go out and gather the 'lost sheep' before 1975. It was the same bullshit message 45 years ago and it was urgent!
Wash- Rinse-Recycle!

not sure if this is in the right subject but here it goes.
i’ve asked this question to a few elders and bethelites but they don’t seem to understand or like the question.
to start off we have to agree that jehovah is all powerful.
Prophecy!!! lol lol lol lol lol
I prophecy that the sun will rise up tomorrow in the east---unless it doesn't! See how easy it is to be a prophet?
just saying!
interesting.
just reported today that 560 were laid off at trump's doral resort / golf club here in the miami area.
up the road from me, one of trump's major resorts (the one he plays golf at a lot) is laying off most of the staff.. i am surprised since there is that federal support for businesses that if you don't lay off your employees, you get government support.
I'm sure that the magnanimous tRump will come to their aide,-------- if and only if his name gets to be printed on the relief checks! I know he really cares bout them---just like the GB care about the sheeple!
just saying!
Yes the all powerful, all loving heavenly father,jehober, cares for his earthly children soooooooooooooooooo much that he has allowed billions of his children to suffer horribly through out the millenniums just to prove a point! Who the fuck in their right mind could possibly believe that?
just saying!
what happened to all those new printing presses?
the wt said they were going to double the amount of mag's every month.
i wonder what ever happened.
15 years ago, the internet was Satan's tool but the printing press was jehober's tool!
Looks like Satan won round!

in 1985 a new phrase was added to our vocabulary, "new scrolls", complete with an explanation as to how they will benefit those who inhabit the new world.
the following five references are the only quotations of this new 'teaching', but incredibly, these two words have been indelibly stamped on most people's minds by repetition from platform speakers, and in general conversation.. w85 6/15 p. 18 par.
21 "during this thousand-year judgment period, jehovah evidently will give additional instructions, unknown to us at present, as new "scrolls" are opened.
"New scrolls"! lol, lol, lol. Yea I can see the GB rolling out this old bullshit teaching again soon! And they, of course, will be the ones who get to write the "new scrolls".
I'm pretty sure that them there "new scrolls" will include some command to give your 'valuable things' to jehober, by way of the current GB!

i’m just curious to know the local attendance figures for the memorial.
my father told me they had an attendance of 140. not flattering for a cong of 100 pubs.
i was sort of surprised at this considering the quarantine measures and everyone being forced to stay at home.
You know that the numbers will be astronomical when published by the wt! Hell no one had to go anywhere to attend, no one had to endure the "late" memorial at some ungodly hour and everyone living in a jw's house was probably 'forced' to "attend"! So when the reporting is relayed to the congregation even the household's dogs and cats will be counted.
