JWs are "peddlers of the word of God" (page 2)

James Free

I can't see any harm for this group to go around with interesting magazines that direct people to Jesus. Praise the lord.

They don't direct people to Jesus, they direct people to the Governing Body. Yes. I am definitely feeling nauseous...

What were the JWs doing when they were going around selling Judge Rutherford's books?

'direct people to Jesus. Praise the lord.'

Jws never talk like that.

little ol me a gear in it, I never said I was, but I can't see any harm for this group to go around with interesting magazines that direct people to Jesus. Praise the lord.

Directing people to Jesus is something they certainly aren't doing. To be honest, i've NEVER heard a JW even say they are aiding a person to "come to Jesus". It's always about directing a person to the Organization.

They were NOT sent from God. They were NOT under God's view. They ARE NOT in the company of Christ. They just speak. Endlessly.

Seeing as how JWs are under the false impression that they HAVE been sent from God, that they are doing the work of Christ with God's blessing.....they can rationalize everything you have said to suit the WTS agenda.

I cannot recall ONE INSTANCE in my 30 years as a JW, where we were taught to go to people's homes and tell them that Jesus had died for THEM so that ALL could have everlasting life....and that excercising faith IN HIM was what was needed for salvation.

So then what is the "harm" in the WTS message?

It is NOT the message that the first-century disciples heard, accepted, delivered, taught OR believed.

Other than THAT.....

They started out as peddlers of the word of God whether or not they remained peddlers of the word of God. I personally believe they are still peddlers of the word of God.

Regardless of whether they are currently, when they started out they were not "adequately qualified for these things", so they were not sent from God, so Jesus wouldn't have chosen them in 1919.
