  Unless this scientist has an army of armed guards around the clock to protect him and his family, I doubt he makes it the full 10 days to make the announcement.

  INSPIRED ERROR: new phrase among JW CO

  I recently sat through this nauseating talk. When I heard the title I thought wow okay they are finally going to come clean about the inspired error of the GB. How stupid I was in thinking this.

  It's pretty sinister the way the CO linked demons to viewing negative information concerning the WTS.

  Then he goes on and on about the GB existing in Biblical times. He did admit that the phrase did not appear in the Bible but he insisted that spiritual instructions did originate from a "body" of elders and apostles like the circumcision problem.

  It took some restraint on my part to sit through that garbage. Him and his wife are definitely company material. He further said that the Bible should be used to confirm the teachings. I thought to myself "exactly!"

  Jehovahs Witnesses and the Name , HOW Important. ?

  by smiddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  jehovah`s witnesses place great emphasis on the importance of god`s name as jehovah .so much so that they are often accused by christendom`s religions as substituting jehovah for christ.. the old testament ( hebrew scriptures identify god as the tetragrammaton four hebrew consanants yhwh and not jhvh.

  as mistakenly believed by a 13th century spanish monk .. modern scholars including the j.w.`s agree that the more accurate pronunciation of gods name would be more nearer to yahweh than the name jehovah .. so why do j.w.`s insist on the name ?

  jehovah ?

  I don't have a problem with the name Jehovah being that Bibles for many, many years, have clearly used the name 'Jesus' and other similar Biblical names that all the same utilize the 'Je' prefix. Names like Jeremiah, Jehoahaz, Jehoram, etc. And all of these names connotate Jehovah in some form.

  I do have a problem with the abusive nature in which the WTS uses the name Jehovah. Even using the name in places where Jesus' name rightfully should be in the Bible.

  Well the first thing I would do is pray for the sincere brethren who are still associating with the WTS due to still having family connections.

  Shortly thereafter, I would hope, not pray, sincerely hope, that every single piece of machinery, computer, laptop, building, and office, that is dedicated to printing WTS material including that piece of crap NWT translation, if you can call it that, has been blown to bits and completely in ashes.

  I had never visited the site before. Boy oh boy I felt very strange reading the comments. It shocks me to see the naiveness of the brethren. I don't feel angry just sad that they don't see the Watchtower for what it truly is.

  Intriguing - but Unsubstantiated!

  by The Searcher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  according to one source on a western european 'apostate' website, the org's plan is to abandon the name "jehovah's witnesses" in the future, and replace it with "worshippers of jehovah.".

  http://www.bruderinfo-aktuell.de/index.php/fixnews/#comment-4313 .

  the gist of the account appears to be a repeat of rutherford's re-branding and debunking of old predictions made by the previous shower of fakers.

  If true, it wouldn't change much.

  The GB could change the name to The Holy of Jehovah or Jehovah's Monkey Show and it still wouldn't comply with Scripture:

  Daniel 7:13-14 " .....I saw one like a human being coming with the clouds of heaven. And he came to the Ancient One and was presented before him.
  14 To him was given dominion and glory and kingship, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that shall not pass away, and his kingship is one that shall never be destroyed."

  God does exist however, the evidence is not quite the way you describe it.
