Why God Calls Them "Bastards"

    Again and again, we see individuals try to appeal to whatever is left of the Watchtower's collective conscience.

    Appeals are made to stop killing innocent naive people on the blood issue. Appeals are made to try to change their

    sick defense of child molesters. Appeals are made to try to stop them from wrecking more families with their shunning

    policies. The list goes on and on .......

    and so does their stiff-necked attitude. Wallowing in the gutter of deceit, they can't rise to the level of churches in Christendom

    who publically apologize for wrongdoing.

    All of this rejection of ethics and morals finds a certain resonance in the Bible - where Paul advises against rejecting

    discipline. As Sons of God, discipline is needed and a thing to be sought - to reject it implies that a claim of having God's

    favor is illegitimate.

    So, why the hurt?

    why the lack of apology?

    why the refusal to change?

    God says - it's because you're not who say you are

    God says ( Heb.12:8) to the Watchtower:

    "For then, Ye are bastards" ( KJV)

    ehem....my bible says illegitimate....lol As in, not children of God....without the Father...it makes sense. Admission of wrongdoing is essential for a Christian and then of course repentance follows with deep sadness and then joy for the forgiveness and resolve to discontinue the past ways because of the desire to only do what is pleasing to God which is loving toward others. You are on the money again Met. As a matter of fact, aren't most jw's today considered not sons of God anyway....is that still reserved for the elite who make all of the rules? I have difficulty keeping up with the new lights.
