CAUGHT IN THE ACT OF LYING: True teaching cannot become Old Light if it becomes New Light again afterward.

by TerryWalstrom in

watchtower governing body leadership directly impacts 7 million members earth wide.

would he change a true teaching?

up to that point christians have obeyed the command at romans 13:1: "let every soul be in subjection to the superior authorities.

Nice explanation Terry,

I agree in the concept of "Light becoming Brighter" as in A topic becomes clearer, as you discover complementary facts, and have time to Meditate on the Body of Clues. This type of Gradual Understanding can take Drastic shifts also.. At times you can Discover information, that completely transforms the paradigm, and when this happens the Light moves to a completely different Path.

The Watchtower completely abuses this concept. The Watchtower's Light Got Bright at one time,when Russell was actually seeking Truth, however ever since they have been Turning the Light on and Off at will, simply to Support their Greed & Blasphemous Ways.As you mentioned, the Light cannot become bright, and then Become Dark, move to another Belief, and Return to the same Belief without any Forward Progress.

In the words of another Wise Man... "Let's Review, It's a Cult!"

The Governing Body-Faded apostates?

by John Aquila in

ive been here less than a year, but ive notice that the majority of us have faded for various reasons.

we also read the stories of those who got disfellowshipped or disassociated themselves.

in the majority of the cases, their parents will not talk to the children for years and the children will not talk to the parents even if they are dying.

1 GB member may know TTATT, however it's unlikely that they all do. These men deal with emotions, that most R&F JW's never experience.

Superiority Complex combined With Confirmation Bias.

These men are delusional enough, to actually feel that they are Christs Brothers. The bible can be read and interpreted in 1,000 different ways, so when these men see something in their current or past doctrine that doesn't match the facts or the bible, they do one of two things.

1. Change the doctrine, and internally blame the past GB for making such foolish assumptions,

2. Change the Bible, and blame Blaspemous Christendom for translating scriptures with a slant.

They are powerful, they are special, and they are chosen.. Why convince them selves that it's all a lie?

Its not different from the Jewish Priests, in the OT that had lost all protection and favor from God, but continued preaching that God was with them, They were chosen, and they would be delivered.. It was "Apostate" Men like Jeremiah, that had to try and set these men and their followers straight.. They tried to Kill Jeremiah.

Simon can set all Links as "Do not Follow" meaning, all of our links do not give .jw.org any "Link Juice" or Search engine ranking. Most likely he has already set this up, if not, it would be a Very Good Idea.

Rutherford's Hitler Letter - An Alternate History

by cappytan in

if you're unaware of the letter tinged with anti-semitism and offering tacit approval that rutherford wrote to hitler, see this article on jwfacts.. so, we all know the witnesses were persecuted quite a bit during the war years.

i personally had family that was in jail with brother schroder in the 40's for the crime of "peddling.

i'm an agnostic fader, however i still think the mob violence against the witnesses was deplorable.

LAWHFol

The Content of Rutherford's Letter was Very Similar to Portions of Henry Ford's Antisemitic publications one titled the "Dearborn Independent"

Hitler Said of Ford's works "You can tell Herr Ford that I am a great admirer of his,... I shall do my best to put his theories into practice in Germany. … I regard Henry Ford as my inspiration.”

It is Possible, That Rutherford had read “Mein Kampf,” published in 1925, read the Above Quotes, and decided that the Best Tactic to Win the Favor of the Fuhrer would be to Publish material in the same style as Ford.

Rutherford was First and Foremost a business Man, he knew that in order to Maintain the Organization's considerable holdings In Germany he needed to do something drastic.
