What about the African brothers who put their life in danger to cross those crocodile invested rivers so they could get to a meeting?

So do you think the Russian brothers are saying "WTF" right now?
by nowwhat? inthey were told to risk imprisonment to keep meeting and preaching because "we must obey god rather than men".
while here in the u s. we voluntarily cancel meetings and preaching because "we need to be in subjection to the superior authorities".
thoughts?.

The Holy Spirit
by Acer21 inif the holy spirit is an "active force", how can it be grieved (ephesians 4:30)?.
in other words, according to the jw's, one can make jehovah's "force" sorrowful?
this is an example of how the jw leaders have perverted the gospel in translation, and have put the jw's in a position in which they must perform intellectual gymnastics in order to maintain their false position.

JW's can you confirm:
It is my understanding that JW's no longer baptize in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit (Mt. 28:19), but now baptize in the name of the Father, the Son and the Spirit-directed Organization. Is this true?
No, not true. But they have removed the reference to "Gods spirit directed organization" in the baptism question. The name of the Father, Son, Holy spirit remain.

you need to research “Jehovah’s Witnesses Child Sexual Abuse.”
Word of warning, if after researching you rise this issue with these people, they could start viewing you as oppositional and hence refuse to continue spending time with you, but that's after they try to convince you that you are learning lies.

2/10/20 20 hindsight: the wt fiction fig tree
by waton inthis week's, 2-10- 2020 jesus lesson 103, parables of the fig tree, prematurely spreading leafs, cursed because of raising false expectations.
what a perfectly fitting facsimile for the fruitless fiction that the wt corporation has produced during "christ's presence" .
!8xy, 1914, 1925, 1975, 2000, 2075. by their [prophetic] fruits you will know them, or the figurative fig leafs, not even covering the bare wt facts.

Jesus should have known not to expect figs growing out of season on a fig tree.

There is a possibility of more people (JWS) dying from suicide than from refusing a blood transfusion !
by Finkelstein ini just recently heard of another person (jws) taking their life by suicide, a woman in her 30's.. sheesh, reflecting back upon all the other past jws that unfortunately did this, it creates an unnerving acknowledgement, jws are more likely to die from suicide than from refusing a blood transfusion.
i remember going back to the 1970's there were occurrences of people who i knew who were associated with the jws in one way or another committing suicide.. at the time i thought well people will do that just like the rest of the general population, not taking notice about the association with the jws.
but now i do see a connection in knowing of how people are mentally entrapped by this religoius cult in their psychological mind set and sociological behavior.

I don't recall any JW I've know to die from not taking blood, unfortunately I cant say the same with suicide.
