  What is this latest letter from the GB about?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  2. beliefs

  we have been told this week that all in the elder and ms body will be read a letter from the gb about "make this the greatest month of activity ever"..... has anyone else had such a letter read out in their cong / servant body?.

  i presume it will be all about "recommending strongly/insisting" that all these men should pioneer for the month?.

  Fill out the application and turn it in, then do as much as you want. If you don't make the quota, you don't make the quota. What are they going to do, Df you?

  so have we got any additional clarification since the initial announcement on this?

  the change is almost 1 month away and we still don't know how this is going to work exactly?

  so what's the deal?

  Is their any evidence/proof that the G.B.enjoy first class flights accomodation in their travels ?

  i`m just curious about the travel arrangements of the g.b.members when they travel overseas to conventions in europe , africa , australia , etc.. is their any verifiable documents /receipts etc.

  that prove they stay in the most up market hotels , or fly first class in planes ?, being treated like v.i.p.`s ?.

  no human being is exempt from the temptations of abusing his power or position of authourity , especially when big money is involved , and the g.b.

  Steve2 makes a good point, there is no "den of iniquity" (inequity maybe) or over indulgence here. The focus should be on the harmful arbitrary policies and the huge money grab.

  let's pretend that a suspicious presiding overseer k. eepclean, alerted by a misbehaving microwave oven to an apostate infliltration of his flock, hides secret recording devices in kingdom hall furniture, and transcribes the conversations... .

  since like most pos, mentally he's more than a few nickels short of a quarter, he needs help to figure out who said what.. so, please study this photo:.

  here are the conversations:.

  Outlaw, no self-respecting man would wear a purse like that, only a fully dipped He-dub.

  A: Hey, I'm a brother with priveleges and a job, what more do you want?

  B: I'll cut back on my hours at work so I can pioneer, you can keep your full-time job at the pet store and we can live in your parents garage apt.

  C: I'm not going to tell you what to do but the WT says...

  D: I don't care, I out-rank you old man.

  E: I'm giving my first public talk this Sunday, any do you wanna come over and play "Zombie Apocalypse"

  F: I'm getting the hell out of here!

  G: I told you, your spiritually weak, Mildred.

  H: But Brother Elderstein, I only have 60% use in my lungs. Elder: but remember the sister in the iron lung that pioneers.

  I: I'm sure glad your mommy went out into the world and got her accounting degree so I don't have to work and keep my MS position.

  J: No Comment. Strikes a nerve!

  K: Maria, just because the other sisters avoid you doesn't mean they don't love you. Love is what distinguishes us from Chrisendom (sic).

  the God's Kingdom Rules book is a simplified "Proclaimer's" book with a thick coat of 1914 fanfare/white wash.

  Seriously considering stepping down as Elder

  by fader77 in

  2. experiences

  i have been an elder for 6 years.

  it's been the last 2 years or so that i've really seen the hypocrisy, but the ability to know the shenanigans of the society through the body of elders letters has kind of kept me in there.

  i'm to the point now that i can't stand the hatred and bitterness that the body of elders has towards myself and my whole family.

  PS, Little Toe's talk is one of the most genuine and loving talks I have ever heard from a KH platform.

  It is not worth the misery to yourself and your family just to " know the shenanigans of the society".

  Tell the BOE that you need to step down because you have lost your "balance", need to care for the family, are depressed, etc.

  At RC, Splane says 1000+ new KH's needed, last year only "60" new one's built.

  by oppostate in

  so there are now regular, full time "construction servants" and their help is much needed along with regional rbc volunteers, who better get working because over a thousand kh's are needed and last year only sixty were built by the u.s. branch.

  .

  splane also said that just with the new baptized this weekend all over the u.s. we had one whone new circuit, so we better put more work into building needed kingdom halls..

  In my area, they maintain four congos (~80 publishers each) in one refurbished hall to separate the people who through the years have burned bridges, swapped mates, molested children, started family feuds, bad blood, and many other similar shenanigans.

  Yes they do travel with physically intimidating brothers who serve as "body guards/assistants" when traveling. However, thet also have others who are care-givers at Bethel. I know a Bethelite who took care of an elderly GB member and his wife as one of his assignments.
