The Borg and the bible, don't eat blood! Jesus, eat my blood! WTF?

by Crazyguy in

your thoughts , and is in it interesting how much jesus teachings seem to contradict the jewish god jehovah.

.

opusdei1972

In the fourth Gospel we find that Jesus says that we must eat his blood and his flesh so as to live. However, the author (or one of the authors) of the Fourth Gospel invented Jesus' words in order to fulfill a theological agenda against the Jews who were opposing Christians in the beginning of the second century. So, it is unlikely that Jesus said "you must eat my blood" or "before Abraham I AM", as the Fourth Gospel tells us.

Nevertheless, the words "unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you", are in the Fourth Gospel, so, if a christian believes that Jesus said that, it clearly contradicts the way Jehovah's Witnesses celebrate the Last Supper and in certain sense contradicts the ban of eating blood.

Why the Bible cannot be the work of an all-wise God that epitomizes love.

by Island Man in

there's simply no way to honestly deny that the ot condones genocide, slavery and misogyny.

there are too many passage showing yahweh commanding his people to wipe out this nation and that nation - women and innocent children included!

it leaves us with a god who wrote a book that very, very, very much seems like it condones genocide, but it doesn't, etc.. what kind of god does that?

I have treated some of this absurdities of the Old Testament in my web page in Spanish.

However, in some articles I have shown how the lunatic behavior of Yahweh has been cleverly used

by the Watchtower's leaders so as to get control over the majority of the witnesses. Of course, the jewish

scribes had the same agenda when invented the personality of this god of cartoons.

Jehovah’s Witnesses VS. Basic Christianity

jehovah’s witnesses vs. basic christianity.

“by his spirit, the holy spirit, jehovah god guides or leads his people up to a certain point of time, and thus he did until the time when ‘the comforter’ was taken away, which would necessarily occur when jesus, the head of his organization, came to the temple and gathered unto himself those whom he found faithful when he, as the great judge, began his judgment, in 1918.”.

opusdei1972

I would like to add the words of Rutherford on 1918:

The evidence shows that a great separating work has been going on since 1918...... The evidence is conclusive that the Lord is now in his temple and that there is a unity of faith and knowledge among those who are in the temple. There is now a clearer vision of God's purposes revealed to the temple class. ….....But it seems certain that when Jesus came to his temple and began his work of judgment he would direct his holy angels to take the necessary action to cause the separation of the disapproved from the approved ones, and would use his angels to bear messages to them to direct the approved ones as to what to do. (The Watchtower September 1st 1930 Issue, Page 262,263)

Ohh, if angels directed Rutherford and friends to preach the 1925 prophecy, these angels clearly misled them.

This stuff about the holy spirit being ceased to function in 1918, was even published as an study article in The Watchtower, September 1, 1930. Currently, many of the Witnesses ignore it, but they should know about it, because the Governing Body still teaches that Jesus appointed in 1919 his faithful and discreet slave, and of course, the leader of this gang of lunatics was Joseph Rutherford, who propagated this new doctrine of the holy spirit.

The Man Who Interviewed the Apostles

by TerryWalstrom in

meet papias.

if you had lived in the time of the living apostles of jesus would you have personally investigated stories about.

or, would you simply read whatever was written instead?.

opusdei1972

What Papias confirms us is that the history of Jesus is a mess and full of myths.

Pharaoh and Judas, both gods puppets?

by purrpurr in

i've had a thought about pharaoh and judas .

in exdos it says that jehovah hardens pharaohs heart so that he then refuses to send the israelites away.

this gives god an exhuse to show off some plague skills he has up his sleeve.. so with judas , jehovah puts it into his heart to betray jesus .. so neither one had command of their actions?

opusdei1972

I am ashamed for having believed in this crap

Today the two elders did not appear to declare at prosecutor's citation

by opusdei1972 in

today the two elders who stalked my sister were absent at the prosecutor's citation.

they were waited for 1 hour, but they did not come.

this attitude favors their culpability.

opusdei1972

Yes, note that it would have been better for the reputation of these elders to be present before the prosecutor so as to present their apologies for their bad behavior to my sister in the street. However, the Organization ordered them to be absent at the audience, and it preferred to use an anonymous elder so as to phone my sister just to inform her that she is no longer a witness. This is how the Organization handles the "Truth".
