Called the information desk again about the UN

by skyman in

i have called many times in the past.

this time i was calling for a sister that wanted to know the truth from the society.

the brother from the information desk said they did join but realy they were tricked.

Bubbamar

the Watchtower Society got tricked by the Beast of Revelation, friend of Satan? I guess the direct pipeline to Jehovah was broken that week.

Exactly!!

I thought they were being led by Jehovah?? Led straight to Satan.

I imagine that's one of the times when the WTBTS are "just men." When they tell you to shun your family they are "inspired" or whatever.

This is a perfect example of how the WTBTS doesn't even need to waste energy coming up with a PLAUSABLE excuse. Any stupid excuse will do because their followers are utterly brainwashed and entrenched with armageddon phobias. Sad Sad Sad.

Bryan

You did such a beautiful job with the interview. You came across as calm, respectful and good natured. I don't know how you do it without losing your cool. I still have so much anger and pain about it all.

Thank you for telling your story and working to get the message out. It is SO important and you are the right person to do it.

I hope you make a million dollars and save some lives and families too!!

I absolutely can't wait to read the book!!!!!!!

Love ya!!!

My personal favorites: (Certainly, No One has ever explained this for me to accept the bible as the word of GOD.)

GE 4:15, DT 32:19-27, IS 34:8 God is a vengeful god.
EX 15:3, IS 42:13, HE 12:29 God is a warrior. God is a consuming fire.
EX 20:5, 34:14, DT 4:24, 5:9, 6:15, 29:20, 32:21 God is a jealous god.
LE 26:7-8, NU 31:17-18, DT 20:16-17, JS 10:40, JG 14:19, EZ 9:5-7 The Spirit of God is (sometimes) murder and killing.
NU 25:3-4, DT 6:15, 9:7-8, 29:20, 32:21, PS 7:11, 78:49, JE 4:8, 17:4, 32:30-31, ZP 2:2 God is angry. His anger is sometimes fierce.
2SA 22:7-8 (KJV) "I called to the Lord; ... he heard my voice; ... The earth trembled and quaked, ... because he was angry. Smoke came from his nostrils. Consuming fire came from his mouth, burning coals blazed out of it."
EZ 6:12, NA 1:2, 6 God is jealous and furious. He reserves wrath for, and takes revenge on, his enemies. "... who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? His fury is poured out like fire, and rocks are thrown down by him."
2CO 13:11, 14, 1JN 4:8, 16 God is love.
GA 5:22-23 The fruit of the Spirit of God is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

What a great list!! And I know there must be a million more!

The dubs would probably explain it away by saying that it's just "men." But if its in the WT it the freakin' word of God.

Jesus the son of God

by kingdoman in

i believe in jesus christ the son of god conceived of the virgin mary and who is one and the same as the father and the holy spirit, and through him all things where created.

i believe that he was crucified as a perfect sacrifice for our sins and on the third day rose from the dead and later ascended in heaven.

it is through jesus christ that we enter the kingdom of heaven and there is no lack of space in heaven.

No one said you were being confrontational. That's not the issue and that's also a typical tactic of cult members. Instead of addressing what has actually been challenged - let's talk about something else entirely. I think it's called a red herring??? (Help me out board.) But- I would invite you stick around and read a lot more. There is really some good information and some very smart people on this board.

I hate feet

by rebel8 in

here in the "arctic" northeast, people are beginning to wear their sandals again.

i hate sandal season.. there are a few people with good hygeine and ok looking feet that can pull off the sandal look.

the rest should not be allowed into public without socks and shoes.. i am sick of seeing callouses, dry skin with foot flakes falling off, dirty feet, even worse--dirty toenails, toenails that have not been trimmed (i do not want to see anything but nails trimmed all the way down), corns, fungus, bunions, deformations, etc.

Bubbamar

Right on Rebel!! It's never really bothered me ---but now that you mention it --- some feet are REALLY gross.

by JH in

jw
friends

.

are you planning to go to an apostofest in the near future?

i've met posters on 3 occasions, twice in montreal, and once in toronto.. how about you?.

Bubbamar

Yes, it's true....Bryan kicked my a-- at pictionary. Not once - but 4 times in a row!!! He's the only person from this place that I've met. And I'll also admit - I was a bit scared to meet someone from the internet. But I'm so glad I did!!!! Bryan and his wife are awesome and their new baby is too!!!

I've never been to an apostafest though - sounds fun though!

The WT article on fraud found on their web site!!!

by frankiespeakin in

here the link:http://www.watchtower.org/library/g/2004/7/22/article_01.htm.

here is a clip with commentary: prevention is the best policy.

fraud is defined as ?a scheme or knowing deception to obtain money by means of false pretenses, representations, or promises.?

Bubbamar

Exactly! I think you are right on with your theory! I think they've done it before too. I remember one article about "how dare the catholic church tell people it's a sin to eat meat on Friday - and then just change it!!" Can they really be so oblivious that that is exactly what they do with the blood doctrine - - over which people have died! The catholics just had to eat fish on Friday ---BFD.

When is the world going to end?

Good point Annie

Also, since I no longer have an active Armageddon phobia - it's a lot easier to just not worry about it.

When is the world going to end?

by Davidson_73 in

Bubbamar

Scientists might suggest that the world will end when the sun runs out of fuel. But the silly scientists just can't accept that will NEVER happen because Michael, the Archangel is responsible for re-fueling. All the other stars burn out and life on other planets ends only because they are not Jeboobah's chosen people. Jeboobah has always had a people for his name.
