Yes, I feel that it is indeed a 'front'. Confidence men living in the turn of the century (1900's) saw a vast and unexplored prize in the hoardes of people flocking to a better life in America. What a wonderful, untouched bounty of possibilities for the ' men of God '.
And now, after 130 plus years, people all over the world have reaped their ' love' . . . destroyed families, dead children and intensely compromised lives.
I say let's ask the WTBTS. Since they are devoted to truth we can trust them. Can't we?
Well, they did say that they are visible part of invisible "heavenly" organization
How do I do "quotes" on here? I can't see an option for it anywhere!?!?!?
You missed out the one other spiritistic things I was hoping you'd say LOL. (hint: R) :)
Doom.
There must be some well guarded secrets hiding at the headquarters in Brooklyn perhaps some spells written in the alphabet of Enochian magic cursing the apostates.
Doom:Oh gawd! Please don't encourage him to start any more threads!
I've been out of the Borg a LONG time. But it took a long time to get it out of me. In the aftermath of all the grief and the doubt I began to read and search and take a good long look at religion...the need for, the concepts behind it all, and I have to tell you I for one, DO see a sinister thread of similarity between Jdubbery and other toxic-exotic belief systems. What I've read on this thread makes sense to me from the stand point of what I've already suspected. I don't think we can discount the tie-in to the Mason's, the Knights Templar, the occult symbolism and the spiritism of people affiliated to the New World Translation and all the rest of the stuff as merely incidental or co-incidental. All of these affiliations and incorporations of occult symbolism are to my mind exactly like the wisps of cyber energy left in our computers even when we delete and purge...we don't see them but they are real...ghosts in the machine. The WTBTS is full of such ghosts. It's a rotten tree that has produced warped and twisted reasoning, ruined lives, it even claims that the creator of the universe is the real author of the drivel they peddle. Look at the wreckage among us on this forum...all of it done in the name of God. This alone should alert us that there is more going on with this creepy coven than meets the eye. I think a lot of really shocking stuff is yet to be uncovered to the light of day about this dangerous cult.
To truth_about_the_truth thankyou for a fascinating insight into some of histories most infamous influences. I don't know why but it is making so much sense. i have been studying the Knights Templar and Masonary for a while now, not knowing why I have been so intriged into the systems of secrecy and occultism that they had and have set in place. And zulikai (very biblical name man, sounds like you are the seventh son, of the third father , of the tribe of danhizedek.) your right, something is going to come out eventually. Time reveals all.
Another clue:
The heirarchy structure. See if you notice the WT simlilarities to freemasonry.
The masons address each other using the term "brother" as well.
According to: http://www.aarg.net/mason/
"A brother becomes Master by being appointed Junior Steward and working his way up."
Does the word "Steward" sound familiar to you as well?
Volume VII of Studies In The Scriptures (published in 1918 posthumously by Pastor Russell, page 6 of the Preface), titled "The Finished Mystery," page 483 says, "Pastor Russell, as a member of the Great High Priest and as Christ's Representative in the world, is the sole steward of meat in due season...."
Isn't the word "steward" mentioned in one of the kingdom songs too?
Why does the WTS reek of freemasonic terminology and structure?
Also why is Luke 12:42 one of the most emphasized scriptures in JW doctrine? (check out the terminology in the NWT)
hmmm
This is a joke right?
Thousands of organizations call each other brother.
Are you an ex jw?
We are susceptible to crappy logic; you are abusing the privilege.
