  What is "The Truth"?

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  to jw's if you think about it, this is what "the truth" is..... .

  "the truth" is that you must be in 'the truth' and spend every waking moment you have getting others in 'the truth'.

  anything the governing body says to do is 'the truth'.

  Always thought the 'truth' slogan was brilliant marketing.

  Are you in the 'truth' they would ask. Makes me cringe and feel just a little sick when I think about it now.

  JW 'urban legends'

  by Steve Lowry in

  i was thinking about some of the old jw urban legends that we grew up with and believed in as jws.

  most of the ones i remember revolved around stories about demons, and jws being "attacked" when they would do something wrong.

  some of these legends scared the crap outta me when i was little.

  Wow rebel8. Were the dickheads actually freakin serious when they said that rubbish to you? Sounds like they lived in the dark ages.

  Yep the angel one's are very popular and the borg have to spread these lovely little tales around to keep convincing the dubs to stay in otherwise 'they' will get you. Yep dark ages

  New Light! People CAN now be saved AFTER the Tribulation begins!

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  for decades, i remember the society, publications, and elders saying that once the great tribulation begins, it is too late to repent or be saved.

  they said the "door of the ark will have been closed.".

  now, however, look at the brand-new clarified understanding / new light on this from jw.org, below.. they are still saying that the majority of worldly people will not be saved, but they are now saying it is possible.. the simplified july study watchtower says this:.

  Thanks brandnew, just confirms that getting out for myself and the kids years ago was the right thing. I can't stomach this hypocrisy. I agree they definitely do not do charitable works as a whole. The borg is selfish so instead of rasing funds for Nepal through their members they choose to push the 'work' through yet another monstrosity?

  Some individual's do these kind acts and help people but then they would do that anyways whether they were in a religion or not.

  Let's face it - it's just a huge wank pit that they can convince themselves of being holy cause there've got a nice new church. Correct Phizzy..... SCAM

  How do I get the COBE to pay back the money he and his ripped off from my ex-wife, he's the guy who claims he make's Pedophiles Holy by YHWH's power!

  by PhilsWager2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the cobe of the local kingdom hall never paid my ex-wife for the work done because they promised they would use "trade" to reimburse close to $5000 worth of work.

  as you can imagine nobody here would like him because he believes all the pedophiles can change their ways after the child sex offenders have proved their humility by bowing before the judicial committees.

  this is how honest jehovah's witnesses are, they changed her work from a 1200 sq.

  Hey Phil, geez I'm sorry for your trouble. I was always told the same rubbish that the Big J would sort them out eventually. Turns out now that is absolutely wrong but I do believe in Karma.

  Give Karma a helping hand and do what you can legally. Report them.

  Like most dubs these guys will have no respect for 'Caesars things' because they are no part of the world you see so they will think they can do what they like. If they were not uber dubs they would still be wankers in life anyways.

  Don't bother with Bethel, they are not good at disciplining themselves so let the law do it and just go for it mate

  Jehovahs Witnesses Tax Exemption in Fishkill, more burden on taxpayers without any benefit to the community..

  by defender of truth in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  fishkill the jehovah's witnesses have obtained a partial tax exemption for the rivercrest luxury apartments that the religious group bought last year, and have now purchased an adjacent waterfront property, both in the town of fishkill.. the effect on taxpayers is a shift of the burden for the lost taxes to all other taxpaying shoulders, plus a probable increase in that shift next year.

  the loss so far to the town is about $55,000, with other sums snipped from the tax bases of the beacon city school district, the chelsea fire district and dutchess county.. and, it likely means that jehovah's witnesses will come forward with plans for how they'd like to develop the land that they acquired march 13.. the poughkeepsie journal.

  jehovah's witnesses eye buying fishkill site for church complexthe two properties sit next to each other in the brockway section of the town, overlooking the hudson river and west of route 9d.. rivercrest apartments is a 250-unit luxury rental complex that the town's assessor values at $31 million.

  And they claim to represent the one and only true god? Makes you sick to realise they are yet another very very rich church. Next thing they will have their own little city as well.

  Why I remain one of Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Brother Jeramy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  allow me to begin with a clarification: when i say i am one of jehovah's witnesses, i don't mean that i am an advocate of the watchtower society or a devotee of some of its more controversial false teachings.

  i mean that i am a christian, a disciple of jesus christ dedicated to jehovah god, and who remains in union with my brothers and sisters who make up the family of faith that globally refers to itself as jehovah's witnesses.

  some totally understand the distinction between the family of brothers and sisters and the corporate organization known as the watchtower society (wts).
