Cardboard Box Because they are all part of BABYLON THE GREAT! Like Jesus said! Get away from me you workers of lawlessness! They are masters at tickling people’s ears!!
I love the way Mark Sanderson says "Satan the Devil" as if he is making it clear that he is not talking about another Satan such as "Satan the Hobgoblin of Little Minds".
I wondered how many Satans there must be. Mormons, Catholics, etc. - htey all have their version of heresy driven by Satan, but always they refer to another one, because the other one is not valid for them...
Unbelievable. When a person awake watches this, the lies and propaganda are so evident. Thank you Lloyd for this great rebuttal. We have to keep calling them out. They are feeling the heat, as evident by their lame defenses. Clapping seals and laughing Hyena's. It's pathetic.
I was always confused when my JW app had a crap ton of updates all the time on previous books and publications I had downloaded years ago. I always thought that it must be cause of changes they are making and it confused me. This was all even when I was fully in the organization.
Being born into this horrible cult, I literally need these videos for reassurance. I have no more friends and family because they’re all brainwashed. They look at me as if I’m condemned even though I’ve proved 1000 times that their logic doesn’t stand up to the tiniest bit of scrutiny. These videos remind me that I’m not insane.
Tony Smith you’re so right. Sometimes I think smacking them in the face with completely obvious logic will wake them up but they don’t even bat an eye! We’re not crazy.... we’re just not about to believe and teAch nonsense.
This talk about being “busy” and not being lazy is an important part of the culture. I hear this from my devout mother each time we talk, these exact phrases like it’s her badge of honor how “busy” her life is. In contrast Jesus invites us “Take my yoke upon you and learn from me for I am gentle and lowly in heart and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
A frightened man came to the KGB “My talking parrot disappeared.” “This is not our case. Go to the criminal police.” “Excuse me. Of course I know that I have to go to them. I am here just to tell you officially that I disagree with that parrot.” that fits here as well well :)
After a speech, Brezhnev confronts his speechwriter. “I asked for a 15-minute speech, but the one you gave me lasted 45 minutes!” The speechwriter replies: “I gave you three copies…”
This is Armenian Radio; our listeners asked us: “We are told that the communism is already seen at the horizon.” Then, what is a horizon?” We’re answering: “Horizon is an imaginary line which moves away each time you approach it.” just replace that with Armaggeddon :D
Tony is one of those drunks that will talk about anything and nothing. All thats needed is a little happy juice. The guy just drones on and on....its painful to listen to that clown.
In my wet dreams, there is someone, who would bring an alcohol tester on the stage asking Tonny to blow into to prove his drunkness, while someone else would read Lev. 10:9. :D
Listening to the arrogant Tony Morris is like flossing ones ears with barbed wire. He peppered his entire talk with himself, and the truly sad part is the crowd clapping away like a bunch of trained seals.
I suspect the 'new' bible is to make the rank and file believe they are really doing deep study. Getting them to focus on what colour the temple walls were keeps the glaring mistakes of the organisation out of focus, while making them feel they are studying God's word in depth and doing the right thing. Interesting round-up, thanks Lloyd!
Mom is an active jw. I am not. Public reproved for the last 20 yrs. Conversation is concerning my 4 yr old son going to a jw camping trip. Mom: did you make a decision about letting Connor go on the camping trip? Me: I decided no because of the policies the religion has about reporting to the legal department if there any issues instead of reporting directly to the police. Mom: that may have been the policy before but that's not the policy now Me: I know you're not allowed to read the elders book, but I have and as of 2018 that was the policy Mom: it's updated all the time and probably you don't know that. Well, that's really unfortunate are you going to allow him to be member of the Boy Scouts Me: if he expresses interest in that I'll be sure to let you know. Mom: well, they're going bankrupt because of all their lawsuits Me: yeah, I hear you are too Mom: no, not us Me: have a good day
geannine nash Protect your child he is innocent and you are his protector so do not let him alone with anyone in the org! My own mother is a JW and tried to give her iPad to my young son at dinner one time. I put a stop to it immediately and she acted like I had slapped her. I don’t care my son and yours is depending on us for their protection from these predators.
@audrey Hess ty for your support. She'll go radio silent for a while then reach out again to me because she knows she's wrong. Brainwashed or not, the woman got 2 Master's degrees before converting. She says (in private, of course), " even if it's not all true, they're the best group of people you can find". So recent 'revelations ' kinda throw that theory out the window, huh? Lol.
Another thought. The GB feels an obligation to trot out some new light every annual meeting. Jws expect it. But since they can't revamp any fundamental doctrines- they decide to switch up some minor ones to pacify the r&f
It's always crazy to watch/listen to them now and see right through everything they say, they don't even seem as confident as they used to. And knowing that I used to sit there too, listening, taking notes, laughing at tony's jokes, clapping like a seal, going home tired but inspired haha. I don't recognize that person I used to be who's mind was so... not her own.
It figures! They've changed the prophecy again! The locusts used to be the witnesses. They are such false Christs. I could never understand the Rev. book and how they make all the prophecies to pertain to the annointed.
New light .... bla bla bla... just another new idea from the GB to justify their means. Surely a true Organisation from a God ( who can not lie)would not have realisations over 100 years later. What nonsensical rubbish, so glad I’m out.
Oh my god that joke was cringy. I remember so vividly sitting in conventions and assemblies, waiting for anything to break up the monotony. Laughing like a dufus and clapping like a seal.
The comparison of JW s being " locusts " is so extremely hilarious!!! When are a swarm of locusts EVER a blessing? All they do is devour everything in sight! This just kills me! DEVOURERS !! YES INDEED
25:30 = people blame God when bad things happen... THATS WHAT THEY JUST DID WITH THE LOCUSTS... "it's god's fault cause it wasn't his time for us to read a few verses more!!!! "
I was just noticing that you have stood for 4 hours which would make your legs quite strong in fulfilment of Bible Prophecy Job 40:17 “It’s (your) tail sways like a Cedar;the sinews of it’s (your) thighs are close knit (being made strong by standing for long periods whilst causing the gnashing of teeth to the false prophet) This verse uses the word Cedars- a clear reference to you. So obvious.
This is really Nonsense. How did I fall to this manoeuvring? So this God takes more than 100 years to correct religious errors right? This was the so-called "truth" and now it's obsolete!!!!!! So, was it Truth? I don't think so.
Good analogy about the "faithful slave" being a parasite and not a dog. I'll add that if your dog has a tapeworm, you give the dog worm medication! 🤣 Absolutely marvelous vid Lloyd!👍
Tony works very hard. He has to lift the bottles of hooch from the shopping cart and put them in the car. Then from the car to his man cave. Then he has to pour the hooch into his favorite shot glass. Well....he only fills the shot glass a couple of times. After that its straight from the bottle. Yes...Tony works very hard!
Turning your back on the GB is more like turning your back on the guard dog that begs to be fed constantly during those brief instances when it isn't barking at shadows or biting you to the bone.
"Prophecy is best understood when we consider it in context." I thought according to them, that prophecy is best understood after it has already been fulfilled. This is so they can then pull some vague Bible verses out of their collective asses and claim that they supposedly support the prophecy.
They did a full 180 turn on their own teaching. Sjees, that's extreme. Changes like this have to wake some people up. A bit dumb that they thought the locust was them to begin with. Locusts clearly have a negative connotation because they wreak havoc on farmland. (Maybe they were subconsciously self aware.)
Me: “Alexa, please find me a Kingdom Hall For Sale.” Alexa: “Turn key church. Immediate possession. Could easily be converted to office or restaurant. Space to seat over 200...” (I shit you not...)
David Splane says: "Prophecy is best understood when we consider it in context." So when Jesus says at Luke 21:32 that "this generation will by no means pass away" the context tells us that what he really meant was that in 2000 years 2 generations of JWs (who claimed to be his anointed brothers) whose lives would overlap, would not die out but be raptured up to heaven before Armageddon. There they would join up with Kenny Rogers, opps I mean Jesus, and ride their heaven horses to rescue all the JWs surrounded by men with assault rifles in either open fields or in basements.
At 1:12:28 Morris says 'thankyou to those here the newboys so many years in the truth and especially the corporate members and their mates if married' what are those terms all about?
Great video Lloyd. Your approach is refreshing; facing the convention 'egos' and 'buffoons" head on. The wooden, contrived manner of the speakers is suffocating. Your interjections provide welcome relief.
Sam Heard just admitted that the audience (8 million JW’s) “don’t know him”!!! But yet they are willing to sacrifice EVERYTHING to him, even family & friends. 🥺
Jeffrey Jacksons comment around 1:50:00 being busy doing what? BUILDING and preaching. Building before preaching. I remember when preaching was all that mattered. How sad for them what theyve become.
1:19:36 - *This* is their excuse, right here. *This* is what my brother, the elder, says, and how he excuses these projects. They are made to believe that these buildings will continue to be used in the New System of things and that they are just getting ready for it.
What surprises me, having never been a witness, is how the leaders try to use words to make the people feel intelligent but the whole message is so simplistic and they speak to them like children. They talk about doing deeper study and research etc but when I hear some you tubers doing kingdom hall phone crashes they cant even answer the most basic questions about a religion they have dedicated their whole lives to and have spent in some cases 40 + years in. The talks I have seen online are so melodic and they speak to the people like they are two year olds whilst trying to make the people think they are intelligent. Im guessing this is how they brainwash the people...
Scarlet Scarlet I’ve never been a JW but my Mother is. I have studied the religion and their beliefs practices and policies to better understand her. It’s a hard thing to have a parent who is in a mind and belief control cult. From the very first time I was made to read the magazines I could see it was infantile and wasn’t like the scripture I was familiar with. I am a fan of Star Wars and compare the Jedi mind trick to the JW mind trick. Sad and even more ridiculous!
That bit about the locust, my word! As obvious as it is, how many witnesses, will pick up on that? I was lulled to sleep during those types of talks. Now that I'm "awake" the craziness is obvious. Thank you!
Your point, brought back from an earlier video, about how there is no “make wait” scripture in the bible • at about 19:15 • is absolute fire 🔥🔥🔥 Great content.
I never understood that about Protestants -- in this case JWs -- how can they buy the attributions of the gospels, which were created by the Roman Catholic church hierarchy. They accept all that tradition from the Roman church while claiming that the Roman church is/was Satan.
A delegation of Soviet workers is visiting an American factory. “Whose factory is it?” “Ford’s.” “Whose cars are parked in the lot?” “Workers’.” American delegation in USSR: “Whose factory is it?” “It belongs to workers.” “Whose car is in the parking lot?” “Director’s.” Just replace that with you know what :D
My father is an alcoholic and I've noticed that over time he began to sound slurred in his speech and a bit drunk even when he hadn't been drinking. So perhaps this is the case with Anthony Morris, either way from my view he seems to have a problem with alcohol
This is hilarious. The drunk Tony Morris looked like he was about to fall over. His slurred speech needed a translator or maybe captions. You should put this on Comedy Central paired with a Xenu video.
Tony's comment about using these buildings straight through to Armegeddon and beyond is UNBELIEVABLE! How far will these idiots go for another dollar??!!
Efrain Rivera Junior 😂That is so funny! I used to be brainwashed also, so I guess that such a comment would have made sense to me also... when I was 10 years old. 🤪
These videos bring up so many memories of being a kid sitting through hours of preaching. Thankfully I knew around the age 13 it was not for me after watching my mom being shunned for trying to leave my alcoholic dad. The elders literally told her my dad was not a alcoholic, I'm happy that the internet and people like you are speaking out about the "truth" and shedding light on how awful it is.
It makes me wonder if that is what they are doing. The new building is a front for what is underneath. Same with Warwick and their other new buildings in other countries.
There is so much to thank you for, Lloyd You helped my son out of the jw cult and helped me see that god is not real-I’ve never felt so free in all my life!
I had to keep pausing and do something else for a bit when Tony was talking, I honestly was worried my brain would turn into soup and drain out my ear if I listen for too long. I don't even know what he was trying to convey? Like there's buildings near each other and he needs to go on holiday?? I'm so confused. And then I don't even know whether he was saying words at 1:14:35 It takes me forever to get through tony videos or sections :/
The "study" bible seems to be designed for study at 3rd grade level, like all the Watchtower materials. All these details about how many boxes there were, and where they were, and what they looked like do not illuminate anything at all about the story of the widow. No depth whatsoever. An great scholar on the New Testament is Bart Ehrman, I read several of his books and found them fascinating and insightful - the complete opposite of anything ever published by the WTS.
Why would Tony quote a 1976 Watchtower which is clearly an article written to excuse the Org from its 1975 failed prediction? Could it be that they were expecting the end to come 2018/2019 albeit just within their circle, but then again it failed? Perhaps they really didn't stop making predictions of their own but they just kept it to themselves for fear of being shamed again. I think it has become the habit of the Org that when their predictions of the end fail they push harder forward just to keep their current members distracted and thus keep them in. I don't know, just maybe.
As a Christian, you are right about the Gospels. Scribes wrote them. That is according to the Apostolic Constitution written during the early church. Available on Amazon.
So the first speech basically said, "this prophecy was about us, but that was wrong so its now about something else. We got it right this time, trust us." It's amazing how blatantly they are saying these things, "you need to slow down and use resources to study the bible, but only use our resources, dont look for yourself for them." "Be a good slave and work, dont question why are we building things when the end is near". Its truly mind boggling how narcissistic they are.
At one meeting the elder handling the part on the building of the media centre told the congregation that the centre would be needed in the New system. During the same part it was revealed that convention themes and programmes were signed off on 4 to 6 years in advance. It made me realise that this coupled with the fact that the media centre will take 6 years from 2020 to be constructed, then the GB and writing committee are very much aware that Armageddon and the end of "this wicked system of things" are nowhere near!
Well... in German, the word for "sober" (nüchtern) is also used to mean someting similar to "rational" in certain contexts. (It can also mean "has not eaten anything" in the context of having to be "nüchtern" before having surgery.) I have no idea what the meaning of the greek word is exactly and if it can also have such a meaning - but there is a German speaking person on the governing body....
The witnesses were considered locusts in the ministry and they were proud of it!!!! That’s why I always had questions, because I’d read beyond what they would say. I was always told Jehovah reveals his information in HIS due time. 🙄🥱 Is Jehovah a 🤥 liar❓ 🕊Oh, wait, Splain just said that **NONE of JW’s have Holy Spirit!!!! * 🤯
At 11:36 how is it that at Pentacost 33 CE, 120 had holy spirit poured out giving the gift of tongues and they were able to reach so many people in ONE day resulting in the baptism of 3,000 ?? How did the120 manage to preach to so many in ONE day that 3,000 could be baptized?
If God is ok with a religion that has been wrong so often, he should be ok with all religions.
that s for sure meaning they can all make a bit of mistakes and its okay with GOD
K H Great point!
I always said that. Why wouldn't a loving and fair God give all religions the same opportunities as another one?

Satana gli fa molto comodo e il motivo di tante risposte già preconfezionate risposte che non potrebbero dare se non ci fosse satana .
Unbelievable. When a person awake watches this, the lies and propaganda are so evident. Thank you Lloyd for this great rebuttal. We have to keep calling them out. They are feeling the heat, as evident by their lame defenses. Clapping seals and laughing Hyena's. It's pathetic.
Not printing stuff also makes it easier to change what they say as you can edit online documents
I was always confused when my JW app had a crap ton of updates all the time on previous books and publications I had downloaded years ago. I always thought that it must be cause of changes they are making and it confused me. This was all even when I was fully in the organization.
Your " bunker" is quite nice! Thanks for all you do and ALL you expose in your videos,
Every talk is in defense mode. Watchtowers corporate motto should be: “Unity before truth!”
Being born into this horrible cult, I literally need these videos for reassurance. I have no more friends and family because they’re all brainwashed.

Tony Smith I know how frustrating it is, this is what waking up feels like.
Hey! You have a friend here! I was also born and indoctrinated as a JW but now I'm free :) you are not alone buddy!
you are not insane. They are just brainwashed.
I feel exactly the same, I come here to remind myself I’m not the crazy one

That would be a nice meme, which GB member gets to be the one that needs a heart, the one that needs a brain, and the one that needs courage?

They talk about doing deeper study and research etc but when I hear some you tubers doing kingdom hall phone crashes they cant even answer the most basic questions about a religion they have dedicated their whole lives to and have spent in some cases 40 + years in. The talks I have seen online are so melodic and they speak to the people like they are two year olds whilst trying to make the people think they are intelligent. Im guessing this is how they brainwash the people...
Scarlet Scarlet I’ve never been a JW but my Mother is. I have studied the religion and their beliefs practices and policies to better understand her. It’s a hard thing to have a parent who is in a mind and belief control cult. From the very first time I was made to read the magazines I could see it was infantile and wasn’t like the scripture I was familiar with. I am a fan of Star Wars and compare the Jedi mind trick to the JW mind trick. Sad and even more ridiculous!
Being on the outside listening to the new light, reminds me of the book 1984
Yep Lots of double think
I was just checking out your merchandise, absolutely brilliant mate.
That bit about the locust, my word! As obvious as it is, how many witnesses, will pick up on that? I was lulled to sleep during those types of talks. Now that I'm "awake" the craziness is obvious. Thank you!
Your point, brought back from an earlier video, about how there is no “make wait” scripture in the bible • at about 19:15 • is absolute fire 🔥🔥🔥 Great content.
It wasn't God's time to reveal the truth of the locusts.... but if you disagreed with us when we had the wrong teaching, you were disfellowshiped!🤨
That hurts. What you just said is true. That "truth" hurts. This is what makes it difficult for me. Df'd for 25 years.
@@hapymark123 I got df'd almost 3 years ago but its all good. Life moves on bro!
I never understood that about Protestants -- in this case JWs -- how can they buy the attributions of the gospels, which were created by the Roman Catholic church hierarchy. They accept all that tradition from the Roman church while claiming that the Roman church is/was Satan.
A delegation of Soviet workers is visiting an American factory. “Whose factory is it?”
“Ford’s.”
“Whose cars are parked in the lot?”
“Workers’.”
American delegation in USSR:
“Whose factory is it?”
“It belongs to workers.”
“Whose car is in the parking lot?”
“Director’s.” Just replace that with you know what :D
My father is an alcoholic and I've noticed that over time he began to sound slurred in his speech and a bit drunk even when he hadn't been drinking. So perhaps this is the case with Anthony Morris, either way from my view he seems to have a problem with alcohol
This is hilarious. The drunk Tony Morris looked like he was about to fall over. His slurred speech needed a translator or maybe captions. You should put this on Comedy Central paired with a Xenu video.
Tony's comment about using these buildings straight through to Armegeddon and beyond is UNBELIEVABLE! How far will these idiots go for another dollar??!!
My brother, the elder, seems to believe that the Governing Body trying to be funny is proof that they are the true religion.
Efrain Rivera Junior then he’s clearly in the wrong religion he should join the circus!! 😝
If laughter is what he's looking for he should listen to the Dalai Lama.
Efrain Rivera Junior 😂That is so funny! I used to be brainwashed also, so I guess that such a comment would have made sense to me also... when I was 10 years old. 🤪
Jessie Berle - Well... I agree that it’s a blessing that people are now getting to know the Governing Body because now more people will wake up.
These videos bring up so many memories of being a kid sitting through hours of preaching. Thankfully I knew around the age 13 it was not for me after watching my mom being shunned for trying to leave my alcoholic dad. The elders literally told her my dad was not a alcoholic, I'm happy that the internet and people like you are speaking out about the "truth" and shedding light on how awful it is.
How the Hell are Witnesses gonna be Suprised when the end comes if they are constantly preaching that the end is near. Doesn’t make any sense
The sound of the clapping at around 1:25 was very weak compared to what it used to be. I wonder how much of that sound was piped in?
If the end is super near shouldn't they spend the money on big bunkers all around the world rather than a new shiny "Visitor Center" ???
It makes me wonder if that is what they are doing. The new building is a front for what is underneath. Same with Warwick and their other new buildings in other countries.
There is so much to thank you for, Lloyd You helped my son out of the jw cult and helped me see that god is not real-I’ve never felt so free in all my life!
I had to keep pausing and do something else for a bit when Tony was talking, I honestly was worried my brain would turn into soup and drain out my ear if I listen for too long. I don't even know what he was trying to convey? Like there's buildings near each other and he needs to go on holiday?? I'm so confused. And then I don't even know whether he was saying words at 1:14:35
It takes me forever to get through tony videos or sections :/
OooOOOoooo Alexa thank you for that playback on just WHO was SOBER and who WASN'T! hahaahahhaha
The "study" bible seems to be designed for study at 3rd grade level, like all the Watchtower materials. All these details about how many boxes there were, and where they were, and what they looked like do not illuminate anything at all about the story of the widow. No depth whatsoever.
An great scholar on the New Testament is Bart Ehrman, I read several of his books and found them fascinating and insightful - the complete opposite of anything ever published by the WTS.
Sanderson has a key to commercial kitchen. Late night snacking much?
Why would Tony quote a 1976 Watchtower which is clearly an article written to excuse the Org from its 1975 failed prediction? Could it be that they were expecting the end to come 2018/2019 albeit just within their circle, but then again it failed? Perhaps they really didn't stop making predictions of their own but they just kept it to themselves for fear of being shamed again. I think it has become the habit of the Org that when their predictions of the end fail they push harder forward just to keep their current members distracted and thus keep them in. I don't know, just maybe.
From around 1:52 to 1:54 one can feel the passion that drives you, Lloyd. I thank you.
As a Christian, you are right about the Gospels. Scribes wrote them. That is according to the Apostolic Constitution written during the early church. Available on Amazon.
So the first speech basically said, "this prophecy was about us, but that was wrong so its now about something else. We got it right this time, trust us."
It's amazing how blatantly they are saying these things, "you need to slow down and use resources to study the bible, but only use our resources, dont look for yourself for them." "Be a good slave and work, dont question why are we building things when the end is near". Its truly mind boggling how narcissistic they are.
To-ny! To-ny! To-ny! Burnt Hotdogs, Expensive Scotch and Tight Pants! Yeah!

I googled the scotch. I remembered the label on the bottle. Costs £225,- a bottle!

Efrain Rivera Junior dont forget his Rolex and blinc blincs- oh and very expansive suits
Fantastic video, thanks Lloyd
At one meeting the elder handling the part on the building of the media centre told the congregation that the centre would be needed in the New system. During the same part it was revealed that convention themes and programmes were signed off on 4 to 6 years in advance. It made me realise that this coupled with the fact that the media centre will take 6 years from 2020 to be constructed, then the GB and writing committee are very much aware that Armageddon and the end of "this wicked system of things" are nowhere near!
So can someone give me some key notes about part one? I dont have time to listen to it. Due to my A.D.D, I have trouble focusing for 2hrs. Thanks!
Did anyone else noticed the "Come be my follower" tekst floating in the background with Samuel Herd's photograph in front..... just plain weird....
I wonder what needy means?
Darrick Sanderson 🤔
Finally got around to watching this. Wow!! I love ur rebuttals, u always say EXACTLY what I’m thinking. Thanks for sharing
Oh Lloyd, you make me laugh and see humour in my effed up background. 😂
'industrious spirit' well Tony's certainly been industrious with his spirit! 😂
Alexa, can you explain the Overlapping generation of 1914 so that people can actually understand it?
1:00:35 see that piece of paper being held by Tony Morris? He’s shaking so badly....
1 John 4:18
18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.
Well... in German, the word for "sober" (nüchtern) is also used to mean someting similar to "rational" in certain contexts. (It can also mean "has not eaten anything" in the context of having to be "nüchtern" before having surgery.)
I have no idea what the meaning of the greek word is exactly and if it can also have such a meaning - but there is a German speaking person on the governing body....
The witnesses were considered locusts in the ministry and they were proud of it!!!!
That’s why I always had questions, because I’d read beyond what they would say. I was always told Jehovah reveals his information in HIS due time. 🙄🥱
Is Jehovah a 🤥 liar❓
🕊Oh, wait, Splain just said that **NONE of JW’s have Holy Spirit!!!! * 🤯
That's what I told when I was studying. I said oh ya huh cuz u guys are out there bugging every1 else they don't wanna hear it lol
At 11:36 how is it that at Pentacost 33 CE, 120 had holy spirit poured out giving the gift of tongues and they were able to reach so many people in ONE day resulting in the baptism of 3,000 ?? How did the120 manage to preach to so many in ONE day that 3,000 could be baptized?
