a jehovah’s witness and her deadly devotion.
did a jehovah’s witness die after refusing a blood transfusion, and should the state have let it happen?.
Watchtower Assisted Suicide
------------ WAS -------------
Romans 12:1[ A Living Sacrifice ] "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship."
Watchtower wants dead ones.
raids on jehovah's witness premises now take place more than three times per month.
these raids on doctrinally pacifist* religious communities often involve many heavily armed and camouflaged officials, with the "discovery" of apparently planted banned "extremist" literature.
legal dissolution of communities can follow.. http://www.forum18.org/archive.php?article_id=2228.
I say "GO PuTIN!!"
True Cristianity has no problem with such circumstances. Only 'institutionalized religion' has an issue.
Jesus said "..where TWO or more are gathered in my name, there I am also". This simple arrangement has nothing to fear. It is sacred and protected by the Holy Spirit.
True Cristianity has even prospered within the totalitarian Watchtower institution and despite its leadership's best efforts to weed it out. So it will have no issue in Russia.
But watchtower is screwed.
jwfacts has uploaded a new video on his youtube channel that is a must watch for all!.

thanks paul.
Good video.
It really demonstrates that the watchtower and its leaders, from Jackson to Lett are demonic bastards.
this info is from the article "who is leading god's people today" feb 17 study edition.. to help them disseminate bible truth in various languages, zion’s watch tower tract society was legally incorporated in 1884, with brother russell as president.
* he was an outstanding student of the bible, and he fearlessly exposed as false such doctrines as the trinity and the immortality of the soul.
he discerned that christ would return invisibly and that “the appointed times of the nations” would end in 1914.. pretty sickening article overall about how badass the gb is, though this little gem is printed as well, paragraph 12. the governing body is neither inspired nor infallible.
They are two separate things.
1) "He discerned that Christ would return invisibly" ....
2) "...that “the appointed times of the nations” would end in 1914."
But by sticking them together with an "and" in between, they successfully achieve their objective. Keep the dubs in the dark. Machiavellian indeed.
CTR was counting on a physical return in 1879, but when it failed, he moved it to 1914. To save face, he invented the parousia nonsense as a stop-gap measure.
In 1914, he was on the roof of the Bethel with his disciples, dressed in white robes, waiting for the Lord to appear and takem' home. More disappointment.
CTR died a sad and broken little man, all full of himself. The governing boobs know this to be true. But alas, they work for SATAN.
this notice is not official yet and it should be confidential until released thru the proper channels.
a friend of mine told me about a huge elders meeting in southern california.
the subject was the relocation and dissolution of some congregations; it seems that this is the result of some project that has been going on for some time and is going to be implemented right now.. please let me know if this is happening all over the country?.
At some point, old dubs die off and leave their money to dubland. I think there is an increasing number of these with undub kids. We should start to see these contest the will in court.
jehovah's witnesses accept jesus as christ, the son of god.
they try, in their own way, to live by his teachings and imitate him.
they pray, read the bible and meet together regularly for worship.. i won't minimise any of the harm and damage they cause but for the life of me, i can't see how anyone can credibly deny that they are christians.. why do so many former jws have a problem with this?
It's so much simpler than that smiddy, it really is. Just look at some of the books they've printed about Jesus; Listening to the Great Teacher, The Greatest Man Who Ever Lived, Come Be My Follower.
What group other than a Christian one would print books with titles like those?
Indeed. What other group would. (rhetorical)
Consider one of the books you mention. The "Greatest Man" book. Examine chapter 39. It completely bastardizes the Biblical narrative and this book says THE OPPOSITE of what the Bible clearly says. The GM book turns the illustration completely around, and the reason the watchtower corporation does so is because they hope to conceal the true understanding of what EXACTLY Jesus was condemning when he made the illustration.
And when one understands the truth of Jesus' words, then one sees clearly that He was not only condemning the hypocrites in His day, but He was also condemning WATCHTOWER today, because watchtower hates the truth in the same manner that the religious leaders of Jesus' day hated him for speaking truth.
And the GB knows it. Hence, the reason for their concealment of the truth.
i know i will get a lot of backslash on this forum for saying this, but as it looks like, i won't ever be able to escape the jws.
i have been a born in, third generation jw and awoken in one way or another (i joined this forum 15 years ago) for a very long time.
but i have adapted to the jw lifestyle to a point where it does not bother me anymore.
As nic up the board said, this is kind of selfish. To stay in the mighty org to get girls.... hmm
Well, there's nothing wrong with wanting a girl. It's not as if this fella is one of those child molestors who was in the mighty org to get a children. That actually happen more than once.
But, all the same, one offers support to the org and the org is bad, it's a very bad thing.

Jehovah's Witnesses ARE NOT Christian. Jesus said, "You will know them by their works".
When you carefully examine the "works" of "Jehovah's Witnesses", when you wash away the haze the watchtower organization places between you and the truth of it, you see that Jehovah's Witnesses are performers of perfunctory acts dictated by the SEVEN MEN who control their every thought.
These "works" are demonstrations of their servitude to to men. Their "works" are either meaningless drudgery cooked up by a closed minded and ruthless hierarchy, or outright loveless, hateful and demonic.
Jehovah's Witnesses are mere servants of men, these men being those in control of a US corporation via other loveless legal minions and they BURY THE TRUTH.
i need maybe 2-5 dozen copies of any edition of the watchtower or awake!
magazines to distribute to family, friends, and neighbors.
any reasonable condition.
If you can give me a good reason for you doing so, then maybe I will pay the freight.
I kinda always knew, but I went along thinking things will change. Even as I dated my wife, in the months before we were married, I told her about how the society was so wrong on many of things.
I even went before the CO and told him. Surprisingly, he reacted positively and because I told him about the things that were wrong, he recommended me for appointment. And I wasn't even trying. LOL so figure that one out. Hahaha
However, really knowing came in stages. One big stage was when I was reading "In Search of Christian Freedom."
When I got to the part where Lloyd Barry was responsible, by changing his vote, for all those young brothers (with families) going to prison, I openly prayed to God for Lloyd Barry to die.
You can figure out when I was reading this book and praying like that. Just find out the day Lloyd Barry died and count back eight days.
True story.
