i know it's old but i never saw this one before.
.
"Rick Fenton, a church spokesman, backed up the organization's practices to The Telegraph: "Any one of Jehovah's Witnesses is free to express their feelings and to ask questions," he said. "If a person changes their mind about Bible-based teachings they once held dear, we recognize their right to leave."
Yes, yet another damn lie by the Bitchtower.
loved this term used in a recent thread.. with the wts' realization/declaration that the freddie franz type/antitype mushroom era is over, questions remain for me over 2 remaining, primary teachings (without even mentioning the daniel and revelation ones).. can someone play apologist and explain:.
1. why can the faithful slave be defended as what the wts explains this verse to be?.
2. how in the heck can the chariot in ezekiel be explained away as "jehovah's earthly organization?
Not sure what you're getting at but I'll throw my 2 cents in.
The complete removal of the type/anti-type doctrine would chop off the legs of their 1914 doctrine (In whatever form) since it was to be a greater secondary fulfillment of the prophecy about Nebuchadnezzar's downfall for '7 years'.
yet another circuit assembly hall is going to be sold off!.
they've been reducing the amount of congregations assigned to meet there and using the times when it isn't in use to make repairs.
elders have now been informed that they are selling off the property and buildings and that circuits would be assigned to attend other sites, twice as far, three or four hours away, like montreal.

DarioKehl, "how do we report this thread?"
There is a flag link on the lower right of the comments. It is to the right of the dislike link.

Everyone, let's give this guy a penny.
what is god's kingdom?
some say it is in your heart.
some say it is heaven.
Gods_Kingdom,
" A doctor and a preacher are two different people. To preach for Jehovah or to do anything for Jehovah we must give our best."
Both doctors and preachers are supposed to do their best as respect to their presentation to the public. Implicit in that statement is the belief that your "preacher" is morally superior to doctors. That is not a reflection of the public but rather your interpretation of how the public thinks and views things.
"We also must be humble enough to follow reasonable instructions from those in oversight over us based on scriptural principles."
Humble? We defy your Faithless and Indiscrete Slave, their interpretation of the scriptures of the Bible and their demon god.
"When was the last time you explained God's Kingdom to someone using scriptures to back up your belief?"
Do you realize that you're on an apostate website?

Gods_Kingdom,
"We must take into consideration that Jehovah’s people are under scrutiny by the world. The message of the Kingdom that they are taking to the people is sometimes judged by the appearance of those bringing it."
My doctor has a beard and I doubt that his patients are leaving him in droves. It is not what the world thinks but rather traditions of men - the Watchtower - that determines things.

Perry,
"If not, explain how this does not violate Occam's Razor and where the information for life came from?"
Perry's clone: Stars shine because angels keep pouring in star fuel into them so that they don't stop shining.
Occam, I'd rather believe what astrophysicists say even though it may be more complicated than your answer.

Perry,
So, the universe did and at the same time did not have a start? But the Big Bang, is self existing or was "always there" and this is what did and at the same time did not start the universe? Isn't it easier to believe in God who is self existing and always existing?; especially in light of the information required for life?
I already addressed your points on the first page of this thread. Here it is once more:
"Perry, that sign that you mentioned is based on outdated science. Today Cosmologists are beginning to realize that our universe is part of a multiverse - a universe of universes. The multiverse would be eternal and that would be no different than your claiming that your god, supposed creator of anything, is also eternal."
