HOW WOULD A WITNESS ANSWER THIS? (page 3)

Good answer, defd. You make an assumption, though. You figure that aldemall left because her circumstances got bad. A lot of Jehovah's Witnesses make that mistake.

Jesus taught us that if our foundation is sure, the house will stand and nothing will be able to tear it down. The deep betrayal I hear from many former witnesses is that they found that the foundation of the Watchtower Society is rotten. Once we are on shaky ground, none of our mental structures can help. We can buttress them with wishful thinking, blame the storm and the waves, but the truth is, our assurance was put in to tissue paper.

My faith in God is unassailable. I have no faith in the Watchtower Society.

There mind control would immediately kick in and they would think...

Is this conversation encouraging? or discouraging? Because the question is aimed at making them think then they are likely to suggest the latter...and say 'I do not rely upon mens interpretation of what is and is not true and trust the ~~bible~~ WTS'

And into the trap they fall....because there is no kin difference.

Mary, questions of this nature don't 'penetrate!'

I recently read a Joseph Rutherford quote "religion and christianity are the exact opposite of each other". I think Jesus recognised that the Pharisees were very religious, but...When did Watchtower change its mind on this? Was it when they needed to register as religions for tax benefits - new light eh?

For my part, when I was a witness, I stuck to God, not to the "organization", our "holy Mother"(LOL), So to the question, I use to give the answer, as long as Iam convinced that they are the closest to the Bible, I keep following them. Ivan

Maybe the only answer you receive is the one that Jesus gave to Peter: ?Mark 8:33 But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men.?

So go behind her, because you do not think like God. LOL

Re: What Bethel Taught Me About SuperRighteous People

One would have been more inclined to read beyond this title if it had read "What I came to Believe about a Righteous God and what I learned about Bethel " but these kinds of expressions don't win 'friends'.
