  I agree 100%. I barely can keep up with so much stuff. Potentially cool topics get buried quickly. We start too many threads. Only one topic a day per user would be enough.

  It was surreal. Your impressions of the "Monthly Awake!" service meeting?

  by ezekiel3 in

  1. watchtower

  at our service meeting the conductor of "more emphasis on the bible!

  " (the march kingdom ministry article discussing the monthly awake!

  ) routinely asked the questions, comments were read from the paragraph and there was a rediculous emphasis on the scriptures cited, even to the point that wt references were given that had nothing to do with the subject.

  Mark a stage play?

  by peacefulpete in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  over the past 70 years a number of scholars have speculated that the gospel mark was witten as liturgical drama meant to be acted out.

  this has gained greater acceptance in recent years for good reasons.

  (the book of matt likewise has elements that seem to lend to this use.

  Thanks for the update! It's funny how they try to deal with their own cognitive dissonance.

  there was a rediculous emphasis on the scriptures cited, even to the point that WT references were given that had nothing to do with the subject.

  What were these WT references all about?

  Is this the same approach used by the Pharisees?

  by dothemath in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  .

  john wrote that many put faith in jesus, but because of being afraid of getting expelled from the synagogue, they wouldn't confess him.. john 12: 42. it was a powerful weapon back then, and it's still used today.

  even when some want to stop being a witness, they're lumped in with ones who are unrepentant sinners, and expelled from the congregation.. wouldn't the pharisees be proud of many of the things done in the organization today?.

  The parallel is perfect.

  Jesus may have alluded to the same Jewish "organizational procedure" when he said:

  Blessed are you when men hate you,
  when they exclude you and insult you
  and reject your name as evil, because of the Son of Man. (Luke 6:22)

  Reminds the WT's DF modus operandi a lot, doesn't it?
