    They not only want you to work for them for free, but now pay them for the privilege of doing the work. At least the other religions are just happy enough to get the money, not coerce their adherents to fill out time cards.

      I know this for a fact by how weak their arguments against evolution are. They're still using a book some other governing body approved back in the 60's. You'd think they'd talk about Nancy Cartwright's "how the laws of physics lie" or Michael Behe's "the biochemical challenge to evolution", but noooo they're too stupid.

Of course not, Jehovah created them to live forever.

In fact, they could profess that “New Light” reveals that you can even count time playing with the Bobble Heads! Be the first during your Zoom Meeting to display the complete set of moving heads!!!

The one thing that gets my attention from the Governing Body begging for donations IS NOT that it is such an easy to recognize SCAM. The one thing that breaks my HEART is to see how Tony Morris and The Governing Body misleads and forces our brothers and sisters to pay for Court Settlements and pay to the Child Abuse Victims from Australia, USA, and other countries. I am sorry, but JW’s shouldn’t be paying for the GB and Watchtower crimes and corruption. Paying for someone else crimes is a criminal offense.

    That is true on a one-to-one individual level, but there are subtler forms of coercion. If there is no coercion, then why are they demanding all congregations make out resolutions for very specific amounts of money which the publishers are going to feel obligated to meet? Also, why did this commenter immediately delete his comment? I got an email notification, but when I came to reply, it was gone.
    He was defending the organization, which should be in his mind a good and righteous thing to do, so why chicken out and remove the comment? Could it be that he is afraid of commenting on an "apostate" channel? And if so, if fear is the likely motivation, what does that say about organizational coercion?

If we need to be constantly reminded, guilted or pressured something is either wrong with us or we don’t value what is being offered. I have been trying something different over the last few years and instead of donating to an organization every month, my wife and I put aside a set amount of funds that we HAVE TO share with others or causes.

Peter and Paul were both sorry for past actions and yet the governing body NEVER apologized for encouraging people to sell their homes and donate to them and then their prophecy was flawed. When they disfellowshipped me they did me a favor. One of the elders on my case owed me 600 hundred dollars. If Jesus was on earth today I feel confident he would whip them like the money changers of his day.

    I had a problem with the passing out of slips paper to put in the contribution box asking for an amount we were willing to contribute. So instead of writing an amount, I attached a note with scriptural reasons why it was wrong ... that went over like a lead balloon. It wasn't long before 2 elders came knocking on my door asking if it was me that wrote the note. We had quite a discussion. I think they realized that I was correct but would not admit it.

  • @white_dragoon_x
    @white_dragoon_x 3 года назад +12

    Every church/organization is guilty of this. I have listened to a lot of sermons from a lot of different pastors and eventually they all have one message. Give your money to God. I even heard an interesting spin on one of the sermons I listened to and the man actually said if you aren't giving a tenth then there is something wrong with your relationship with God. That generosity is proof of your relationship with God. My wife has been in a church that has had a wall of shame and names of people on the wall that hadn't gave their tithe. New testament says that the people gave freely by selling all their possessions and giving to the apostles and the money was distributed as one had need. The old testament said that every tenth animal that passed under the staff was to be set aside for the levites and the levites had no property and relied solely on their brothers for food and if it was money then another 5% was to be given so 15% once a year. But at the end of the day if you enjoy your church or in this case your congregation then give cheerfully not begrudgingly because God loves a cheerful giver and money makes the world go round and pays the bills. The only thing that the jehovahs witnesses don't do that is mandatory is give to the poor my mom who has been a witness for about 50 or so years said its because Jesus said preaching the gospel is the most important thing. But they ignore that he also said give to the poor and help those in need. Churches should never be a for profit organization but sadly most are ran in that way. The only pastor I have to give props to is chip ingram he said he doesn't care if you give to his church or if you give to a charity as long as you give a portion of what God has given to you. I ranted long enough good video by the way I currently don't have what most call a spiritual home because I have doctrinal differences with most denominations and most would see me as a heretic.

    How much does “the preaching work” cost nowadays, since all JWs have to do is sit in their houses and write letters. I doubt Watchtower is supplying every publisher with pens and paper, envelopes and stamps. Since there is so much less literature printed that JWs have to “place” in field service, that means there is that much less literature that Watchtower has to print. They are saving money at every turn, but they still ask for more, more, more.

In recent years I am shocked by how publicly petty, vicious and scheming they have become. I can only presume their mindframes have been concentrated and poisoned by social media use, like much of society. I also notice many of the Kingdom Halls I saw as a youth are missing from the landscape now.

About the time that Watchtower put out a call for lawyers and paralegals, and that they started discrminating their correspondence between "Watchtower" in contrast with "the Christian Congregation",... I think that may mark the time when Watchtower became more "publicly" petty, vicious, and scheming. Good comment. Thanks for the walk down memory lane.
