The separating of the sheep and goats in Matt.25 the old view was that the witnesses were participating in it. Now (Since late 1995) it's a future event. seek2find

Was There Any Watchtower Interpretation That You Never Quite Understood?
by minimus ini knew what the watchtower taught regarding the "faithful & discreet slave class" but how they could ever suggest that "domestics" were "individual members" of the anointed that were given food to the other anointed ones, yet they specifically were not members of the governing body, but the governing body represented the group that would take the lead in feeding others, was beyond me!
the whole interpretation of the fds doctrine is ridiculous!.
were there certain things that puzzled you as to how the watchtower could come up with a particular view?

How about their explanation that "The least of these" in Matt. 25:45 are only members of the 144000? It's their way out of doing charity work I guess. How are they going to feel when Christ says "be on your way to the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels? How can they be so arrogant????

Reading " Crisis of Consience", What did you Learn, How did it affect you?
by flipper inthought this would be good to discuss for the newbies and others just getting out of the witnesses, so they can have their thinking and appetites whetted of things they never knew coming out from under the witness organizations spell.
i know for myself, after reading this book, it totally clarified what the reasons were for all the control in the organization.
and i was informed of things i never had a clue that were going on behind the bethel scenes.

I thought parts of it was a little bit to over documented with all those copies of letters and such. Sometimes it seemed like he must have been planing a departure years ahead of time. Still though, much of what was said is difficult to refute.And I respect him for not stooping to the level of some and just saying anything without caring about whether it was true or who it would hurt. seek2find

Whether the above is true or not I have no way of knowing, but I do remember a bethel speaker a while back talking about how the society monitors traffic to its web site and how one viewer was viewing from the Vatican and that he had looked at every page on the site, or something to that effect. So it wouldn't surprise me if they did do some tracking here. So I guess if they do they are welcome to report me to the local elders. Just make sure the elders know the answers to my questions before they approach me. We wouldn't want them to start to have doubts because of not having the answers now would we? (GRIN) seek2find

The most ironic Watchtower quote - proving they are not directed by Jehovah
by jwfacts inthere have been many ironic watchtower quotes, things written about others that apply perfectly to themselves.
this is my favourite as it is proof that the watchtower is not directed by jehovah and not preaching truth.
true, there have been those in times past who predicted an end to the world, even announcing a specific date.

I don't know that it classifies as ironic or not, but recently I heard a Governing Body member say. "The faithful and discreet slave deserve our complete respect and support, it is Gods arrangement for Salvation" seek2find

by Lady Liberty indear friends,.
i need help finding when, how and where i might find that announcement..publication...where the new procedure was not to announce ones as being dfed..but now they were to be annnounced as "no longer one of jehovahs witnesses".
with that change, it made it so that those who were not active could technically be announced.
