August km re media reports

by expatbrit in

jw

not sure if this has been highlighted on the board, but in the august km there's an interesting paragraph in the front page article "you are a theatrical spectacle":.

sometimes the media publish reports about the activities of jehovah's people.

while we appreciate good reports that are factual and fair in dealing with our work, we also expect bad reports to be spread by our detractors from time to time.

I mailed to a whole neighborhood where a sister lives. It was a 3 page letter that exposed the Watchtower. It hit hard and killed 2 budding studies on that street.

Interestingly, the sister said "This must be the persecution that we were told would come"

She couldn't see the forest for the trees.

The facts revealed about the ivory Tower made no headway with her. Her brain is burnt.

BUT, it the WTBTS folded up, this would make them start to rethink, although even THAT would take time.

I think that if you set a JW on fire, and the GB said that they were NOT on fire, they would make no effort to stop-drop-and roll. They would just keep going door to door while on fire.

The question then is, if a JW on fire came to your door, would you put them out? Or would you even open the door? After all, a burning ember might ignite a curtain or something.

FDS claims to be a spirit medium.... are they?

by biblexaminer in

the former board of directors, now the back seat drivers via a group of minions, claim to be spirit mediums.

pick up any watchtower magazine, and in one of the two (or sometimes three) articles, somewhere will be the ever repeated -like a broken record- phrase, the "faithful and discreet slave" followed by matthew 24:45.. the watchtower synod then, claims to have "special knowledge" as it's called, and say that they are the only approved "communication" with god, who we all know dwells in the spirit realm.. therefore, the governing body lays claim to being a 'go-between' or "medium" between man and god (the spirit).

there's no two ways about it, they even use the term "channel", which means they are "channeling".. taking it one step farther, to consult the watchtower magazine would then be to consult "a spirit medium" making watchtower readers ones who consult spirit mediums.. what then does the bible teach about those who would lay claim to being "spirit mediums", as well as those who would "consult" them?

biblexaminer

Because a "spirit medium" is defined as someone who claims to be able to communicate with the spirits of dead humans.

Interesting, but where did you get this definition? Dead humans are not spirits. They are dead. In the Bible, which JWs claim to believe in, a spirit is clearly ALIVE, and is a demon, or fallen angel.

In the Bible, there were many approved spirit mediums. They were called prophets. A prophet is an approved communication with the spirit realm, and IS BACKED UP BY WORKS.

The GB losers claim to be prophets, but since their claim is false, they are reduced to the ranks of a crystal ball-gazing "spirit medium".

Interseting. Now, do you claim to have knowledge other than the Bible, as though you had "special knowledge" to add to it's content, as does the GB "slave"?

The Watchtower leaders are not just claiming something for the Bible, they are making a claim for themselves, that they have more and superior knowledge, superior to the rank & file.

They are not claiming that the Bible is "the channel", but rather that they are the channel. And they say that God reveals things to them as "prophets".

I can read the Bible as well as any man. But I am willing to let the authority rest in His word. The GB attributes to itself "special wisdom" as a "channel" or medium. The talmudic volumes that they put out are an addition to His holy word.

Did God say the world would end in 1925 or 1975? They un-ashamedly DID. And they has the gall to claim that God Almighty revealed it to them, skipping past his ordained arrangement of Jesus as the go-between and claiming a type of "messiahship" of their own as a last days, so-called latter-day messiah-group which was prophecied to come.

Did God say we shouldn't take "alternative service", and languish in prison? Did He change his mind a few years later and say "it's all right now", sorry for the inconvenience? ie broken homes, wrecked lives etc...

They did. And they said "we are God's channel" a medium to the spirit realm, a mediator between God and you amharets.

Making postcards to send to JWs

here are some postcard messages that i'm sending to freinds.. i think postcards are better to reach jws because the message is short and other may read it with out opening the letter, so you never know who will be helped.. dear_________________.

you must find out about the fear that the w.t.

organization has put in you, so will stay under their mind control.

Speaking as a professional "mailman", I have been mailing for about one and a half years now. We here have spent about $700.oo cdn and have experimented with many approaches.

Since some of our participants are still on the "inside", we are able to get a very good picture of the fallout. We actually talk to those that are "hit", and we get a feel for what works.We now know what works and what does not.

How are things here? In my congregation, it is almost impossible to get somebody to volunteer to do a demonstration. Every publisher, from the PO to the pio's is squirming. They all want to spend as much time as possible in the coffie shop. It's all becoming a burden on the memb's and most are doing token service.

Money in the box is short. I have spoken to bro's in half a dozen congos who all relate that money is drying up. Bills are mounting. Elders spend an incredible amont of time in "elders meeting", because there's som much going down here.

ie: Sister Faithful gets blitzed. Sister Faithful becomes Sister Pitiful and elders x,y and z are at a loss to help her. Meanwhile, new brother M, almost got baptised, but has now quit outright. Everyone is disturbed and attendence has dropped dramatically.

And Brother circuit overmeister? Well, he's toooo busy. Lot's of apostasy around and his work is never done. He has no fingers left to plug holes with. He is drowning.

We know what works, and the future is ours!

Society's Arrogant Claim - "Spirit Appoint...

by metatron in

jw

over the past couple decades, the quality of watchtower writing.

and depth of scriptural reasoning has declined.

whatever illogic.

biblexaminer

Good post.

The FDS says they are THE "channel" to God. A channel is a go-between, a mediator, or in other words a "medium" (middle).

The FDS then openly claims the rank of "spirit medium",... and even lousy "mediums" today refer to their craft as "channeling".

The Word of God condemns such ones, and they are worthy of death!

In Revelation, John writes that any who would add to the Word of God, writing other books and proclaiming them equal to His Word and given from HIM, these ones stand condemned to recieve the plagues.

And there are plagues. Some have published the WTBTS's true message around my town, and the circuit overseer openly, in front of the entire circuit, called it a "plague".

And so it shall be.

New BLOOD video.

i just finished watching the 'society's' new blood video.

it's interesting to note, but not out of character for them, that they clip the doctors in mid sentence.

in the same way they "selectively" use bible quotes, skipping around to present a false picture, they also cut and edit everything the doctors say, so as to make their blood dicta seem medically supported.. clip clip, cut cut, chop chop and voila!.

Also, it is good to note that the "blood dicta" is supposed to be "Biblical", yet the entire effort of the blood tape is the medical approach.

I would say to them, "If it's a true bible teaching, then nothing on the tape is of any value at all". "Our" supposed "stand" would continue REGARDLESS of any of this medical mumbo. If it's from God, then we will die and that's that!

Yet the whole approach of this tape is to make blood look bad from a medical perspective. Really, it shouldn't matter at all, for if it's TRULY biblical, then the argument, and hence the video, is MOOT.

One last thing, on this tape, it's mentioned that JW's can utilize this one compound which is a "BLOOD PRODUCT". Hmmmmm, that should make some dub's think.

Directed By Holy Spirit My Ass !!!

dont you think that it is stupid when you hear the dubs say that all appointments are made by the jehovahs holy spirit?.

how many times have you heard of elders/ms etc.

that were commiting all sorts of wrong doings while at the same time serving and passing judgement on others.. i remember when i was appointed ms there was a brother that was appointed at the same time, that accepted the assignment and served for almost a year before they found out he was commiting adultery all the while.. then you have the pedophiles that operate within the congregation some being elders etc.. i know for a fact that i could be a fornicator/drug user/closet queer/ are anything bad and keep it secret and i could move up the ranks as high as i pleased.. hell i could even be a undercover apostate/fornicator/all of the above and still get appointed if i kissed enough ass.. i could pioneer and lie about the hours,they would never figure it out.

biblexaminer

I am "appointed" in the good 'ol congo, and I am the biggest APOSTATE of them all. I even slip stuff into my talks so as to stumble some of the sleepy bumps in the chairs.

So Freddy, am I appointed by "holy spirit", or "holy cow"?
