  Watchtower now Proudly Promoting the DIVINE Jesus

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the revised nwt has a footnote on john 1:1 showing that "a god" means "divine.".

  also, their other publications are now much more boldly referring to jesus as divine:.

  jesus--the way, the life, the truth (2015), page 306-307:.

  I swear you have to be a freakin retard to be a JW sometimes.

  Clambake, since my awakening I am thinking this religion is for spiritual lazy people.

  If you do a little research by yourself you see so many misunderstandings in their doctrine.

  I never thought of myself as spiritually lazy but if I would have researched a little and not take as valid everything they said I would have never got baptised.

  The monthly broadcast as an opportunity to wake up

  by paradisebeauty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was thinking that maybe the monthly broadcasts are a occasion for some jw's to wake up.

  before those broadcasts they probably imagined that the gobgoverning y members are some very special peopleand that you see in their behavior and words that they are "chosen".

  but now all jw's can see them for who they really are: average men, some full of themselves, some ridiculous, some just normal men with nothing special.

  Maybe some jw's will ask themselves why they should obey these men without question.

  Do you think this is possible ?

  I like this, and it is true:

  No one has a monopoly on the truth and a healthy discussion about religion needs vagueness -- room to contemplate the wonderment and mystery of the unknowable.

  If they really wanted people to return they should stop that stupid rule of shunning ex members!

  That rule is not Biblical.

  They have that rule because they are afraid ex members will tell current members TTATT and will expose them.

  Last sunday study article: you are saved by helping Christ's anointed brothers

  by paradisebeauty in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in the last article of march watchtower - study edition they make some affirmations that are totally in contradiction with what the gospel says:.

  paragraph 7: .

  and what of the reason why people will be judged as either sheep or goats?

  In the last article of march watchtower - study edition they make some affirmations that are totally in contradiction with what the gospel says:

  paragraph 7:

  And what of the reason why people will be judged as either sheep or goats? The outcome hinges on how they have treated the remaining ones of Christ’s spirit-anointed brothers on earth.

  So people are not saved by grace, they are not saved because of Jesus Christ's sacrifice! they are saved because of their deeds. More exactly the good deeds they do for the anointed ones.

  What??? This teaching sounds so Pharisaic and anti christian! Not even Paul or the other disciples said something like this. How can they say this?

  And how come most jw's see nothing wrong with these kind of statements?

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in my area, a lot of the young jws, especially girls are getting breast implants, nose jobs, chin implants.

  asian jws girls get eyelid surgery, and one girl even got her legs lengthen 5 inches making her about five feet nine inches tall the male jws are getting hair transplants and nose jobs.

  and nobody in the congregation says a word, including elders.

  About the new movie ... they portray how horrible lives live have the ones who marry nonwitnesses.

  But the reality is, couples where both are jw's are not much happier.

  Real estate buying, why are the GB doing this?

  by purrpurr in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  watching the documentary going clear, i noticed several parallels with the gb.

  one of which was that in recent times they are focusing their efforts on buying property.

  i don't understand what the purpose of this is?

  In case Jesus will not give them the earth in the new world, they want to own as much of the earth as they can in this world.
