New Changes For Jehovah's Witness: Women Can Wear Trousers, Men Must Not Wear.. by Courz: 10:09am On Mar 16 |
Based on the New Governing Body Update in the Jehovah's witness website, certain changes have been announced as a response to their heavy loss of Memberships and loss in Court cases. These changes are minor but serious to the typical Jehovah's Witness who has taken the words of the Governing body members way too seriously. The changes are as follows: 1. The Governing body has decided that Jehovah's Witnesses can now use their Bible trained conscience to greet Disfellowshipped people ( people who have been expelled from the congregation based on a wrong doing). Jehovah's Witnesses are only to have brief interactions with them but still are not encouraged to socialise with them. This little change was made because the religion has come under fire for their Disfellowshipping doctrine in different Court cases. Because of this doctrine, Jehovah's Witnesses lost their registration in Norway. The Norwegian government ceased giving grants to the Cult and no longer recognise them as a Religion. They are also no longer permitted to conduct Marriages in that country. 2.The Governing body has decided that Underaged Children/Minors are no longer required to be in a judicial committee for Wrongdoing. The parents and the Elders have their role to play in talking with the Minor and if the minor is of good behaviour, a judicial committee is not necessary. This change is also as a result of Jehovah's Witnesses loss in the Court case involving the Norwegian government. The Norwegian government deregistered the Religion when they found out that Underaged Children are disfellowshipped and are shunned by their Families. This is Discrimination in the eyes of Norway and against their rules for religious institutions who are interested in receiving Government grants. So, money is the motivation behind this change. 3. Jehovah's Witness Women are now allowed to wear Trousers to the Kingdom hall, to the Ministry and to Conventions. The mode of dressing with trousers must not be Casual. When they have parts to be done in the Kingdom hall or Conventions, they must wear skirts. When visiting Bethel Headquarters, they are to be dressed in skirts or dresses. This change came because EXJWS who have left the religion have been making these suggestions. Sometimes, this suggestion is made as a joke and was very popular in ExJW Reddit Forum. It is quite a shock that the Governing body of Jehovah's Witnesses listened to the ExJWs that they call Apostates. There have been reports that there are agents of Watchtower spying in the ExJW Reddit Forum, listening and taking notes of what is being discussed. Afterwards, their suggestions are implemented in the name of New Light. They believe that when they make these changes, it would move EXJWS to come back to the religion. So, who is running the JW Religion, Apostates or the Governing body? 4. Jehovah's Witness Men must not wear ties and jackets to the Kingdom hall, to the ministry and to Conventions. They are only to wear Ties and jackets when they are giving parts/Talks. They are also to be dressed in ties and jackets when visiting the Bethel Headquarters. Earlier, it was announced that they are free to grow beards. The Governing body member giving this update in the video below had a full beard. It is evident that a lot of changes are a response to a dying religion and they are doing their best to rebrand themselves to make themselves more appealing to the public.

There are lessons to be learned in this. These changes show that; 1. The religion has always been Man made. Their rules have always been rules by Men to control people and are subject to changes when it is evident that they are not Biblical. 2. The changes show that humans can be led astray if they are not knowledgeable in the Bible. 3. The Governing body are scared of the World's government and when they are pressured to make changes, they will do so just to get approval from the world. 4. If their pockets or Bank accounts are running dry due to one doctrine or the other, the Governing body will make changes accordingly so as to get Money. These changes will be made under the guise of New Light. If they keep losing money in Courts due to one policy or doctrine, they will change that doctrine. 5. The religion is losing members at a fast pace and Kingdom halls, assembly halls and Bethel branches are being sold or are up for sale. When you watch this latest GB update above, you will see that the overall theme of the update is Membership retention. The Governing body member even appeals to disfellowshipped people to come back. They are also listening to the tips provided by Apostates a.k.a EXJWS with the hope that they also will come back to the religion. Jehovah's Witnesses who are rejoicing over these changes should show some gratitude to the Apostates/EXJW Activists who have been fighting for years for changes to be made. Watchtower is also trying to become More Mainstream just like every other Modern Church but at a slow pace so that it is not too shocking to Jehovah's Witnesses. 6. The changes show that Watchtower Bible and Tract Society is more of a Business Corporation than a religion. As mentioned earlier, anything that hurts their bank account will be changed. A typical Business losing profits will rebrand itself to look more appealing to help cut off these losses. Once you see Watchtower as a Business and not a Religion, you will understand the changes they are making. Since they don't take part in any Humanitarian activities, it is clear that they are truly a Business. 7. These changes also show that their doctrines are not Biblical and that the Governing body have always been wrong about everything while the Apostates have always been right. It also shows that they are not reliable and you stand at risk of being deceived and led to a pit should you take their words seriously. It shows that the Blind have been leading the Blind to an unknown destination. 8. These changes show that the Governing body values the views of Apostates and are willing to do what it takes to bring them back. It is beginning to look like the Apostates are the ones running the Jehovah's witness organisation. 183 Likes 12 Shares |

Some people who have contacts from the Bethel Headquarters are revealing that more changes are coming. The Birthday doctrine was mentioned as one of them. Well, time will tell if that's true. I have said it before that Jehovah's Witnesses need to prepare themselves for more changes. They should remember that these changes are because 1. They are rebranding to become just like every other church to keep the eyes of the governmental authorities away from them. 2. They want Free money from the World, the same world They call Satan's world. They need access to grants that are in millions of dollars from different governments in the world. Unfortunately, Jehovah's Witnesses do not have access to these grants. They pocket the money as the typical Business that they are. 3. Their religion has been in trouble with governmental authorities in different countries for their destructive policies. 4. These changes are not because they suddenly got New Light from Jehovah. They are reacting to incoming trouble which is why they use the phrase "The Governing body has decided". 5. These changes are because things are not well with them. They are signs of Trouble happening in the background that they are hiding from Jehovah's Witnesses. Because of their recent loss in the Court case with the Norwegian government, some other countries are joining to investigate them. The Governing body are smelling trouble coming and are making changes accordingly. They are on a slow project to be become more mainstream like other churches and are trying to look less Culty. Jehovah's Witnesses will always be seen as a Cult as long as they haven't done the Real Doctrinal changes that identify them as a Cult. To show you the Mental state of Jehovah's Witnesses regarding these changes, here are some comments praising the change and calling it Love and Mercy from Jehovah. Meaning, Jehovah was wicked to have restricted them in the first place. Mental illness is an epidemic in the religion. 36 Likes 2 Shares

jaeyking: The Governing body didn't tell them. Let's just say when you taste freedom small, you will want It to remain that way. The COVID period has changed how JWs Preach. They are slacking. Some will rather do it online or through phone calls. The Governing body saw how JWS are slacking when they report very low hours or no hours at all. So, they made a change to scrap reporting of hours. These changes they make are always reactionary based on what they are seeing. 20 Likes 2 Shares |

![]() Funny people. Where did the update come from? From God or just man-made mumbo jumbo? Confused set of people. That was how one useless christian movement said in the 90s that televisions are devil boxes and members shouldn't buy them. We had one family as neighbors that attended the religious organization. Every day at 9pm, their father will come to our house to watch the NTA news on our devil's box. ![]() Confused lots. The funniest thing is that once these pastors or their children japa to the abroad, they start wearing the trousers they castigated in Nigeria. They paint nails, use lipsticks, wear wigs, and all those "wordly assessories". Then you wonder if the people in the abroad are marked safe from hellfire. ![]() One GO will just sit down at one nonsense headquarter with brainless board of trustees to decide how their sheep should live their lives. Mumus! You lots need to watch the TV show The Righteous Gemstones to see how these pastors and televangelists use your head to play ludo. 38 Likes 1 Share |

My issue with JW is that they claim to know God so much that they do His will. No other person or denomination knows God in their eyes. Yet, other people are influencing their laws. The same laws they claimed are directly from God. Scammers!!! So, God bends too...right? See eh. Religion is a messed up thing for the human race. 20 Likes 2 Shares |

Did God instruct them to do this or are they trying to keep up with the times so as not to be left behind by society? The same way that religious scammer and pulpit bandit, W.F Kumuyi, who once called TV "The Devil's Box" but today the Werey has a television ministry "Fools think religion is true, the wise think it false, but rulers see it as useful." - Seneca 16 Likes 4 Shares |

This is comical seriously. Eye don clear? Besides, one can feel and see the dressing bias in the new rules. It is western-centric. No regard for other cultures in the ties and jacket rule. Smh. These are men. Men with flaws and stiff neck. When will this realization become known? 12 Likes 1 Share |
