Why are JWs so afraid of apostates?
by Magnum inwhy are jws so afraid of apostates?
their view of apostates seems to be out of the realm of the ordinary, the natural.
its as if the words of apostates are supernatual or spiritistic as if apostates are some kind of jedi knights who can slightly wave their hands or twitch their eyes and bring one under a spell.

Is this new donation arrangement for real?
by nugget injust read a post on jwsurvey about the new donation arrangement.
congregations are to pledge a monthly amount to be sent to the society to fund the building of assembly halls and kingdom halls.
congregations who already have a loan from the society will no longer have to pay back the loan but the amount pledged should not be less than the current monthly repayments to the society.

1. careers: Have a close look, how god will see your career and if you are the "best" in your job:
(Proverbs 22:29) 29 Have you beheld a man skillful in his work? Before kings is where he will station himself; he will not station himself before commonplace men.
2. birthdays: celebrating birthdays will NOT end in DF. Reading the "elders book" about this was helping me to get free.
3. end is near: reading the Awake from 1968 telling young people, that they will not get old in this system and should have no career in this world helped me a lot to see behind this "the end is near". The end is near since brother Russel started writing.
Jesus showed his followers to have a money box for the poor people. Ask yourself: Are JWs following this pattern?

Maybe only kingdom halls near to a bethel have a "official" little kitchen.
So bethelits can stay there and eat between a morning and a afternoon meeting.
In one KH rebuild the RBC was promoting such a room with an easy to clean (wet) flooring.They know, that only few brothers & sisters have "much love (agape)" to bethelits to invite them regulary for meals between 2 meetings.

does anyone have details?

The rank & files have not offered enough rooms for the international delegates and missionaries who have no money for hotel rooms.
So maybe the publishers have to endure a 20 minute guilt trip about hospitality.
So brothers & sisters, let us read together:
(Romans 12:13) Share with the holy ones according to their needs. Follow the course of hospitality.
(Hebrews 13:2) . . .Do not forget hospitality, for through it some, unknown to themselves, entertained angels. . .

"Foursquare" at Dachau
by Quendi ini hope someone can give me a quick answer to this question.
the 1974 yearbook of jehovah's witnesses tells the story of the movement in germany with much detail about experiences witnesses had during the years of the third reich.
one of the stories was about life in the dachau concentration camp when it was under the command of a man nicknamed "foursquare.
