in volume 48 no. 5 of the may 2005 kindom ministry. this for those that don't know or have forgotten is a small bulletin that is only given to jws that go door to door. it has their more or less instructions and changes from the wtbts.
in this issue of interest is some of the titles of things. it appears to me by one title the the wt is at it again getting the rank and file ready for the big day. it says, JEHOVAH'S DAY IS NEAR. part of this says, AS RECORDED AT REVELATION 17:9-11 THE APOSTLE JOHN MENTIONS SEVEN KINGS REPRESENTNG A SUCCESSION OF SEVEN WORLDLY POWERS. JOHN ALSO REFERS TO AN EIGHTH KING WHICH NOW REPRESENTS THE UNITIED NATIONS. ARE WE TO EXPECT OTHER WORLD POWERS TO COME ON THE SCENE?. NO, THE PROPHECY STATES THAT THIS EIGHTH KING GOES OFF INTO DESTRUCTION, AFTER WHICH NO EARTHLY KINGS ARE MENTIONED. DOES THIS PROPHECY HELP YOU TO SEE WHERE WE ARE IN THE STREAM OF TIME?
the article goes on but i think you see where this is heading. for the life of me i just can't imagine why the wts would want to bash it's buddy that it was a member OF ONLY A FEW SHORT YEARS AGO. I WONDER IF THE UN WOULD BE HAPPY TO READ THIS INFO THAT THE WTS HAS PRINTED .
the next thing in this bulletin is conducting progressive bible studies part 9 PREPARING STUDENTS TO WITNESS INFORMALLY. in one place it says: YOU MIGHT SIMPILY ASK THE STUDENT WETHER HE HAS SPOKEN TO OTHERS ABOUT WHAT HE HAS LEARNED FROM THE BIBLE. PERAPS THERE ARE FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS WHOM HE COULD INVITE TO SIT IN ON THE STUDY. ASK HIM IF ANY OF HIS WORKMATES SCHOOLMATES OR OTHER ACQUAINTANCES HAVE EXPRESSED INTERESTS. IN THIS WAY HE CAN BEGIN TO GIVE A WITNESS. HELP HIM APPRECIATE THE NEED TO EXERCISE DISCERNMENT AND TO BE RESPECTFUL AND KIND WHEN SPEAKING WITH OTHERS ABOUT JEHOVAH GOD AND HIS PURPOSES.
the article goes on to say: IT IS WISE TO PREPARE BIBLE STUDENTS TO FACE OPPOSITION. then it says; THE BROCHURE JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES--WHO ARE THEY? WHAT DO THEY BELIEVE? CAN EQUIP THEM TO BE READY TO MAKE A DEFENSE. IT PROVIDES ACCURATE INFORMATION THAT THE NEW ONES CAN USE TO HELP WELL- MEANING FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS TO UNDERSTAND OUR BIBLE BASES BELIEFS AND ACTIVITIES.
as you can see the wts wants to suck into their clutches new ones and their family and friends earlier on now. they don't want you to wait till baptized. this is also why they tell their bible studies early to be prepared for opposition. the wts must be worried about the net more and more.
the next thing it talks about for the next 4 pages is how to make and keep a practile family schedule. they list all the meetings and even the daily text and show a whole lay out of what your family schedule should look like they even to the point of listing family recreation on saturdays. i mean they want to control every minute of your time even fun time. if this isn't a cult i don't know what is.
anyways there you have it if any questions abt anything i have here just ask i will try to answer them. i will try to do this every month if i can get my hands on them.
