  Why I remain one of Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Brother Jeramy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  allow me to begin with a clarification: when i say i am one of jehovah's witnesses, i don't mean that i am an advocate of the watchtower society or a devotee of some of its more controversial false teachings.

  i mean that i am a christian, a disciple of jesus christ dedicated to jehovah god, and who remains in union with my brothers and sisters who make up the family of faith that globally refers to itself as jehovah's witnesses.

  some totally understand the distinction between the family of brothers and sisters and the corporate organization known as the watchtower society (wts).

  Galatians 1:1-12. States there is only one gospel. The WT does not teach the gospel of the Bible. Far far from it. They have it completely wrong on so many issues and levels, and mostly in major important topics too.
  

  They are also proven false prophets, which the Bible says to stay away from.

  They are also proven to be liars, which the Bible also says to turn away from.

  If you know these things, and yet are still willing to stay in that organization you are far more delusional than you realize.

  
  These people you call family would chew you up and spit you out the first chance they could get the moment you put a foot out of line. That's not family. That's mixing company with other people who are just as delusional as you, who are fully under the control of 7 old men in NYC

  BTW, I'm not a bitter 'apostate'. I've never been a JW.

  Jehovah Witness net - Bug

  by redvip2000 in

  2. experiences

  has anybody else noticed a bug with this website, where once you publish your post, only a section of it is actually posted.. this happens to me about half the time.

  i'm not sure if it only happens with firefox on a mac, but i will try on a different browser.. i got to the point where i actually copy my post, then publish it, and then go back to it and paste the text again, so i don't have to write the whole thing again..

  I'm on FF and have that problem frequently. It's very strange, as just certain portions are removed.

  Maybe you could read this: Matthew 24:6 "See that you are not alarmed, for these things must take place, but the end is not yet.". Then maybe like others said, focus on how to be saved. (whether you believe it or not, it may help her)

  Flier on "Day and Week of Christ's Death" to be mailed out to Kingdom Halls this week!

  by CharlieSmith1975 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the tricky thing about a mass mailing to all the kingdom halls is that mail is often not delivered to the kingdom hall but to a po box.

  it is super easy to get all the addresses to hundreds of kingdom halls across the country and even have those addresses printed out for you as labels!

  but when i did that before i got about a third of them back.

  I wonder if someone could fake a letter from HQ, with the same header/writing style as usual to get Elders to read something to the congregation that would get them to wake up. Just a idea :) I'm sure some Elders would figure it out, but the content could still be something that gets them to wake up.

  i just started to watch the february broadcast when i noticed a metallic rattle over the drone of sam's voice.

  (does that man speak with a mouth full of chowin' tobacco or is he choking on the rubbish he reads off the autocue?).

  yep it's his rolex.

  hello forum,.

  i'm new here and not sure where to post.

  so, i'm 21 years old and currently a baptized witness, however, i'm slowly making my mind up to leave and here's why.. first, there are certain things that make no sense to me in the organization.

  Is Watchtowers view & practices currently split in two? Split leadership direction?

  by thedepressedsoul in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've been deeply following jw "culture" the last 2 years and i am getting the impression that the leadership is currently split in two different directions.

  on one hand you get this sense of a happy, joyful and less strict religion and on the other hand there is still this strict, harsh religion of the past.

  let me explain more.. there have been a lot of video's lately that show dancing in kingdom halls, bethel dancing to the "happy" song, jw.org downplaying their beliefs and making it sound like daisies.

  Or it is becoming even more cultish... Displaying the outward appearance of it all being roses, when the reality is getting much more sinister.
