    Japanese blog translated; https://ameblo.jp/tapangb/entry-12433716348.html There was a new announcement at the meeting this week. Org will accept JCB credit card for online donation, I’m fed up with org’s soliciting money. And there was another announcement. Members will not allowed to use “second auditorium” during a meeting without elder’s permission. (Second auditorium is a small room attached to a main auditorium, sometimes used by people who don’t feel well or baby keep crying) I always use “second auditorium” during meetings, so this new announcement made me feel extremely uncomfortable. I’m thinking about stop going to meetings . It is not loving Christian organization.

    Christian Congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses The Ridgeway, London, NW7 1RN Telephone: 020 8906 2211 SDI December 31, 2018 TO ALL FIELD SERVICE GROUP OVERSEERS Re: Auxiliary Pioneering in March 2019 Dear Brothers: We are aiming for an all-time peak in auxiliary pioneers during March 2019, which will be announced to the congregation in the Announcements and Reminders (S-147) form for January 2019. How can you and your fellow elders assist? During January, arrange to meet with your group. (Where a group is cared for by a ministerial servant, the body of elders should assign an elder to meet with the group servant and the group.) In the meeting, kindly and tactfully build enthusiasm for this campaign. Share practical suggestions to help the publishers plan ahead. This March campaign offers you an excellent opportunity to give even greater attention to your assignment. (ks10 chap. 2 pars. 22, 23) Warmly commend the brothers for the efforts they make to increase their share in the ministry. Thank you very much for giving this matter your prompt attention. We are confident that, through your loving efforts and Jehovah’s blessing, this initiative will increase praise to his name. Please accept our warm brotherly affection and greetings. Your brothers, 😄 All elders Circuit overseers Both BOE's are in a zipped folder. https://we.tl/t-ZWvQuWOa5V Atlantis!"

    In this installment of my rebuttal series I examine the February 2016 JW Broadcasting debut of Governing Body helper Kenneth Flodin, and offer him some loving counsel on his use of illustrations. I also scrutinize a series of segments designed to draw on the emotions of Jehovah's Witnesses, from the slick contrived cheesiness of Derrick Tillett to the tragic half-told story of Phelicity Sneesby.

    Why the heck is WT trying to assert the clergy-penitent privilege to allow elders to NOT report to authorities? Exhibit A: (State of Delaware v. Laurel Delaware Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses, Joel Mulchansingh and William Perkins)[https://law.justia.com/cases/delaware/superior-court/2016/n14c-05-122-mmj-0.html). Relevant quote from the case, the JW crew being the defendants: Does that sound like the organization is 'endeavoring' to report abuse? They are 'endeavoring' to legally NOT report abuse. That's how the hell they're trying to comply with secular laws. I'm sorry for the language, but these *%&$*()*$ are writing articles to the general JW with the obvious intent of making it look like they're TRYING to report abuse and they're not. They're simply not.

    And it took how many years for their "Guardians of the Doctrine" to realize things weren’t right with this issue?

    Please add this new light:

    To be clear: The new rules now allow elders (para. 15) to go to the authorities once an allegation of CSA has been made without fear of retaliation by headquarters. AND two witnesses aren't needed to do this (even though two witnesses are still needed for judicial action🙄). In addition to this, emphasis is given that the reporting party will not bring reproach on jehovahs name. Para. 14- "But what if the report is about someone who is a part of the congregation and the matter then becomes known in the community? Should the Christian who reported it feel that he has brought reproach on God’s name? No. The abuser is the one who brings reproach on God’s name."

    This sums it from the article “The loan has already been paid. It is not as bad as being aged. It seems that donation is insufficient so that monthly operating costs can not be covered.” Seems like they owned it but the society wanted the cash

    In less than 10 years, active publishers in Japan have decreased by more than 10,000, from a high of more than 223,000 to just over 212,000. How many Kingdom Halls does that decline represent?

    KH used by Oe congregation and Obiyama congregation (KUMAMOTO KUMAMOTOSHI ) is soon to be closed. Reason ’They cannot afford to maintain KH. Two Congregations have no loan payment, but amount of donation keep declining. Source; https://ameblo.jp/maruyoshi208/entry-12429438518.html

    There are so many things wrong with this: There is absolutely nothing in the chapter that indicates that Timothy was talking about raising children and caring for a household. It is super rich for the Society to talk about women "gossiping and meddling in others' affairs" when they not only encourage their own members to do it but basically mandate it from their elders and ministerial servants.

    have babies ,even though Armageddon is supposed to be any day now??
  16. Jack Ryan
    Yes. This is important because only the elders are allowed to gossip and meddle in others’ affairs! 😁

    From page 154 of : "You Can Live Forever in Paradise on Earth." From page 154 of : "You Can Live Forever in Paradise on Earth." After drawing attention to the many things that have marked the period from 1914 onward, Jesus said: "This generation will by no means pass away until all these things [including the end of this system] occur." (Matthew 24:34, 14) Which generation did Jesus mean? He meant the generation of people who were living in 1914. Those persons yet remaining of that generation are now very old. However, some of them will still be alive to see the end of this wicked system. So of this we can be certain: Shortly now there will be a sudden end to all wickedness and wicked people at Armageddon. (a) Which generation did Jesus indicate would see the end of this system of things? (b) So of what can we be certain? ARMAGEDDON Some of the generation living in 1914 will see the end of the system of things and survive it

    You say "The New Order" instead of the "New System of Things."

    you think an oral review is cheating you think cart witnessing is cheating you can provide explanations of most of the prophecies in Daniel and revelations from memory. you have fond memories of Shasta lemon lime and cheese danishes. you can rhyme giv'n and heav'n, and can sing about molested bees with a straight face. you (rightfully) believe that Caleb and Sophia is an unholy abomination. Anything I missed?

    is it ok for a JW fireman to rescue people from a burning church? This is how JW's constantly think..... get real folks...

    It also looks like it’s proof that the Canadian lawyer for the Watchtower perjured himself as an officer of the court to their Supreme Court

    "...I am however a member of the Governing Body of the WTBTS, perhaps the most senior of the eight GB members. In fact myself and my buddies channel the spirit of Christ Jesus and we take direction directly from him on all doctrinal and organisational matters, who in turn takes direction from Jehovah himself! You see Your Honour, WE are the faithful and discreet slave as described in The Bible! Yeah, check US out! But to answer your question, I have nothing to do with Watchtower whatsoever!! Next question?!"
