That's funny. I pretty much asked God that same question, and the answer I came up with is that apparently Jehovah just wanted to humiliate and infruiate the demon brood. Hope That Helps / You Know
You Know,
I've read your posts for some while now, and it is patently obvious to me that you have never travelled at length outside of the USA.
You replies are so "Watchtowerish" that your lack of any experiences outside of your own countries recriminatory and vengeful policies cause us Europeans to fall about with laughter at your immature and vain attempts to explain the writings of the scriptures as though you were a CNN reporter. Truly, you have never discovered the meaning of the term "irony"!
Englishman.
..... fanaticism masquerading beneath a cloak of reasoned logic.
You Know,
You asked JEHOVAH, and you came up with the answer yourself?
It never occurred to Sideshow Bob that the vicious little messages he hears in his head (and yammers repeatedly like a demented carnival barker) might be from the demonic brood...he prefers to pretend God is the source of his vitriolic bile.
He asked God a question, and then came up with the answer himself.
"the answer I came up with is that apparently Jehovah just wanted..."
See the sleight-of-hand? He's so slick even BOBBY didn't consciously know he was doing it! He wants to insult and revile so much that he will pretend the urge is 'apprantly' from Jehovah! But his intentions are pure, so they MUST be godly!
Apparently Sideshow Bob is just another delusional gasbag.
But You Know that, don't you Bobby?
To You Know,
On one of your threads entitled something like Apsotates Are Doomed,
I wrote at some length asking you`What is so scarry about Armageddon?`
As you know the WT teaching is that apostates die and then what happens?...they cease to exist. So what? What`s so aweful about non-
existence? All of us never existed before we were born and I don`t
remember the experience being so terrifying, do you? JWs can find a
way out through suicide, or even homicide followed by the death penalty. Because when all is said and done the only thing awaiting
them is non-existence. So stop using the Big-A as a scare tactic.
What`s so scarry about it? If it comes, well commit suicide or die
and enter into non-existence. Does non-existence hurt? I doubt it.
If,on the other hand, you believe in a literal hell and eternal
punishment, now that`s scarry! According to Christendom`s version of
judgement, the WT leaders will be suffering eternal judgement for
being false prophets and refusing to recognize Jesus as God. So,
please tell me,You Know, what is so frightening about the WT`s teaching regarding Armageddon? Have you ever read the verse,`Fear not
him who can destroy your body, rather fear Him who after destroying
the body has authority to cast into Gehanna`? I await your answer.
Now as to your present account of all the crises in the world and
how they have through the years lent varasity to the WT claims that
the end is near, it is painfully obvious that you have rarely left
the shores of the great US of A and therefore; your thinking is
extremely ethnocentric. Virtually everything you refered to were the
types of criseses which afflict Americans. The world is much bigger
than the U.S. Many so-called end times signs are of no significance
if you live in another part of the world. I remember the big Y2K
scare. I was in Japan all during that time and it just amazed me at
how much doomsday talk was coming from accross the Pacific Ocean!
Nothing happened here, nothing happened there, nothing happened
anywhere. So much for doomsday.
I believe in the Bible and I believe in biblical prophecy.I`ve read
many books about prophecy both WT and otherwise.It`s obvious that
no one has a very good grasp on what`s going to happen.You Know,you
should try reading other books on prophecy written by non-JW sources.
You will be amazed at how heavily the WT has borrowed from other
older Christendom writers.They borrow and then throw on a WT spin to
make JWs the spiritual Jews and the center of the whole thing.My
conclusion is that no one really knows what`s going to happen.
Please stop peddling an American religion.The WT is not a world-wide
religion.Sure they have a sprinkling of believers in various countries,but they are by no means a world-wide religion.One in five
believers is American! The total number of JWs world-wide is less than
that of several American Protestant denominations (i.e.Baptists,etc.)
And please stop making the Bible a Jehovah`s Witness book.The simplicity and arrogance of that kind of thinking is down right
embarrassing. Have you ever asked yourself why with over 2000 translations of the Bible world-wide the WT has only done a little
more than a dozen? Have you ever wondered why all the WT translations
are into languages which already have valid translations of the Bible?
Have you ever wondered why Protestant missionaries will spend virtually a life time translating into languages of small tribal groups where a JW has never even set foot while no JW is even qualified to translate the Bible? If you could only read Japanese! The WT has massacred the Japanese language in their NW translation. It`s an unbelievably poorly translated! Many Japanese JWs have left the org. due to their poor, inaccurate translation.
Enough said...I await you response as to what is so frightening about
the WT`s view of judgement. JWD
So stop using the Big-A as a scare tactic. What`s so scarry about it?
I know a young Cambodian man you lived through the Killing Fields when the Khmer Rouge liguidated about half the population of Cambodia. You should talk to him about terror. I admire stoicism generally, but false bravado is always the first to go when things get scary. God's word says that when Jehovah comes down in anger to set things straight that all the apostates in Zion will shiver. In fact all of mankind is going to become faint with fear when they are confronted with the horrifying collapse of the present system. You will be plenty scared, and unless you have a cyanide capsule at the ready to off yourself at the first sign of terror, you will have to experince the truthfulness of words that say that "it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the true God." / You Know
See Sideshow Bob trot out his Cambodian killing fields refugee blurb YET again, trying to sell tickets to his imaginary horror show!
Re-runs don't sell the show, Bobby. Ho-hum, when you start repeating your anecdotes it's REALLY boring.
Come up with any more 'apparent' messages from Jehovah, SIdeshow Bob? BTW I like the way your tongue lolls when you channel your GOd... just like those New Age channelers!
Yet again I am moved and overwhelmed by the scripture:
GOD IS LOVE
God maybe love but there is not much evidence of it in the biblical message.
One thing that stands out to me whenever I read a JW post or "speak" to one in a chat room is the complete lack of love they have for other people and how they feel they have a God-given right to put on the judges' wig.
When I left the "truth" I had nightmares about Armageddon. Now I face the future without fear. There's no bravado about that. It's just the way it is when your eyes are open.
As for You Know I think he is most of the time just venting his true vindictive nature because it must be such a strain putting on the sweet perfect xtian act for meetings and service. He must be panting to rip his God uniform off and hit his pc when he gets in!
God help you YK and I mean that most sincerely.

You Know,
Have you ever read the story of the `Rich man and Lazarus` in the
book of Luke. They both died. The rich man died in peace. It was
after death that the trouble began. When you talk about the Big-A,
you always emphasize `an aweful death`, but the Bible doesn`t make
judgement a matter of HOW you die. Think about the verse you quoted
from Hebrews about it being a terrible thing to fall into the hand
of the living God, it is in the same book of Hebrews that it is
stated , `It is given unto every man once to die and AFTER that comes
judgement`.The manner of death is not the issue.If it were, all the
believers listed at the end of Hebrews 11 who were sawed in half,etc.
would have gotten a raw deal. So, it`s in this area that the WT teaching is full of contradictions and lacks any impact.Since you
don`t teach there is anything AFTER DEATH for the Apostates, you have
to make the experience of DEATH ITSELF seem really, really scarry.
But, when you think about it that`s silly.You could die in a car
accident tomorrow, be in a plane crash, get cancer or be shot.All of
which aren`t very pleasant ways to die. But if that`s the end of things,so what? Have you never read the words of the Apostle Paul in
1st Corinthians 15 where he says `If there is no resurrection,let`s
party` (paraphrased).Was he saying that it would be so terrible not
to make the resurrection? No, he was saying if there is no judgement
AFTER death than what`s the difference whether you live morally or
not. In the WT teaching, there is no difference. Sure you miss out
on 1000 years of remaking the Garden of Eden, living theocratically
and witnessing to the millions of people who never heard and will
be resurrected and given a chance to become JWs. But, maybe a lot of
people would rather miss out on that!
The WT teaching is so completely `present world` centered. It just wreaks of a `man-made` religion.
Stop trying to make the MEANS OF DEATH sound so scarry while denying
that there is any judgement on the other side.It lacks impact. Oh,
by the way, I also had a good friend from Cambodia who lived thru
the killing fields. I knew him in 1983. Wonder who met their Cambodian
friend first(?) JWD
