  The "slave's" dogma depicts Satan as being more powerful than Jehovah!

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  according to the org's "guardians of doctrine," (g.o.d.

  's) the figurative woman who's mentioned in revelation chapter 12 is none other than god almighty's heavenly organization - with its myriads upon myriads of powerful spirit creatures.. it-2 p. 187 - "it would follow that the “woman” is god’s “wife,” the “jerusalem above,” the “mother” of christ and his spiritual brothers.

  " jv chap.

  I'm missing something here. I think if you read the part which you've personally highlighted, I did actually say "GOD'S omnipotence. I never said anything about the WOMAN being omnipotent.

  haha - then in view of the thread title and your OP, what you've said just doesn't make sense - actually what you say 'disproves' your title - you're mixing up 'God / Jehovah' with 'Woman / Wife / Jerusalem Above'
  

  Your thread title should be "The "slave's" dogma depicts Satan as being more powerful than Jehovah's Wife (Woman / Jerusalem Above)"

  Otherwise your reasoning appears to be verging on a 'strawman' principle'.
  

  And actual believe has nothing to do with it
  

  The concept is called - devil's advocate - which can be very useful valuable

  The opposite I supppose it called - confirmation bias - which can be very dangerous

  Since verses 6,13,14,15,& 16 all depict the "woman" as having to run away and get shelter and protection from Satan, it doesn't put God's omnipotence in a good light, does it?

  Why?

  It is 'God' who is omnipotent - NOT the 'woman / wife / jerusalem above'

  Thus it is 'God' that Revelation 12:6 says provides protection to the 'woman'

  Hey The Fall Guy - you seem quite the searcher, what with all those WT references, key words bolded and use of italics.

  BBC News "The ex-Jehovah's Witnesses shunned by their families"

  jookbeard: very disjointed didn't come across well at all.

  It was kinda bland, and all very 'so-what-ish' - which doesn't really work on TV
  

  At that time of the day, the TV programme is up against 'Judge Judy' with parent's suing their kids etc and 'Jeremy Kyle' with families fighting each other. And then there's Victoria Derbyshire...
  

  Victoria Derbyshire also seemed unsure what questions to actually ask to - trying her best to make it into an 'i-n-t-e-r-e-s-t-i-n-g' story before viewers either turned over, or went to make a cup of tea.
  

  It was kinda weird too - the lady interviewee was shown in silhouette, and the guy had only his back shown with an actor doing a voice-over for his comments. Agan, a bit 'so-what-ish-weird'
  

  And Terri - who can be very good in the right enviroment - sadly just looked like an out-of-place gooseberry, particularly as she was sitting opposite the two main interviewees, and next to Victoria.

  The old "Book Study Group"

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in the june 2004 kingdom ministry, the self-appointed "faithful slave" published this spiritual exhortation as a q&a item - "the congregation book study—why we need it.

  three years later, in 2007 - in the august kingdom ministry - the same "slave" issued this reminder - "how the congregation book study arrangement helps us.

  but surprise, surprise - within a few short months the "slave" decided that jehovah had had a change of heart, and now decided that the book study in homes - with all of its alleged benefits - was superfluous: .
